He has tried to contact Ironside several times, to reveal important information about the criminal organization. When he is killed by a sniper, Ironside is quite sure that John Trask, the number one man, ordered the assassination. Ironside is since a long time clear about who the leaders of the crime syndicate are. The problem is that he cannot find any evidence against them. Now he sees a chance to catch the leaders, by arranging a trap for them. If they believe that Stuart isn't dead, but only unconscious, they get nervous about what will happen when he wakes up, and may start some actions that can prove their criminality. Stuart died almost immediately of the bullets, but Ironside spreads the false news, through media, that Stuart is still alive, but kept in a secret and guarded place at the hospital. To increase the pressure on Trask, he arrests the other leaders of the syndicate, thus giving the impression that Stuart has woken up and started to talk.
