Dean McGinley

Dean McGinley was a fellow peer of Craig Tinker at Weatherfield High. In September 2013 Craig had accused Dean along with his friend Connor Hayton in bullying him, but this was a plan orchestrated by Karl Munro who needed Craig to make up an excuse why he was acting shifty, when in actual fact the reason was because Craig thought he caused the fire at the Rovers Return Inn several months previously when it was in fact Karl, who needed to cover his tracks. Dean and Connor were suspended from school, which caused the both of them to track Craig down to Coronation Street. They had cornered him when he came out of the chip shop, but Karl had spotted them chasing Craig and came to 'help' and was close to punching the two lads, and had to be pulled off by Stella Price and Dev Alahan. After making a scene, they took off.

Craig had later confessed he made up about the bulling, and its presumed Dean and Connor's suspensions were lifted.
