Oliver Boyd is the grandfather of Charlie Monaghan and Emma Boyd, as well as the father of Kate Boyd.

History[]

He and his wife Deborah never cared for their daughter's relationship with Zoe Dunlop. Emma would end up being terrorized at school by student Sean Hamill from that, having already insulted Charlie for his weight. When Emma stabbed Sean and paralyzed him after he cut off her ponytail, her blood-related and married relatives all rushed to her side as she was prosecuted. For the time being, she was remanded into Deborah and Oliver's custody. James Decker, the Boyds' attorney, manipulated the grandparents into believing Zoe was dangerous for Emma and insisted on putting false ideas in her mind.

By the time Emma was sentenced to counseling, she accused Zoe of molesting her, in what was revealed to be doctor-appointed massages. During the trial, Decker's proxy alienation and brainwashing of Emma was revealed, as was the corrupt influences on other families with children raised by queer parents. When Decker was charged and due to stand trial, Deborah and Oliver were asked to testify. Zoe barred contact from them after their lies turned Emma against her living mother. (SVU: "Alien")
