EDIT: A thing I thought was strange was that he doesn't seem to have one of those distinct NY accents, maybe one from New England or something? Maybe one of the Americans on this board could elaborate.
he's definitely from NY you can hear the accent and his little speech mannerisms buried under that voice effect thing they did to mask his voice. I'd guess just because of where he was driving and where he lived that he was from Brooklyn. Maybe that's just the 'shift' he was working but all of those shots of him in the car were driving around east williamsburg/bushwick, south williamsburg, bed-stuy and what looked like almost east flatbush. the VICE office is in the williamsburg area so im just reaching/assuming they ended up meeting the kid through an employee or friend being one of his customers or something
