Clara LaGuerta

 is a Minor character and a Stranger featured in Red Dead Redemption. She appears in and gives the player the Stranger side-mission &quot;The Wronged Woman&quot;.

Background
Clara has been cast out of Blackwater due to her illegitimate pregnancy. Her major concern is getting the father to help her out by giving her some money. The father is Harold Thornton, but he maintains that he's never even heard of Clara, much less fathered her child. So she weeps inside Blackwater Church hoping that someone will come to her aid.

Marston first meets her in Blackwater Church where she gives him her sob story. After that, he only hears about Clara from a woman crying over Thornton's grave. She claims to have seen Clara laughing at Thornton's funeral and refers to her as a "stranger," suggesting that he might not have been the father after all. In the journal, it is stated that Clara conned Marston into robbing and killing Thornton.

Trivia

 * If the player starts the mission as John and ends it as Jack, Clara will still be pregnant. This implies she was faking.
