after the tragic incident that happened to her older brother, Veronica became obsessed with finding out the truth. even to this day it's a cold case. she ended up getting into detective work, using the old case of her brother as an in to try to find out what happened. she ends up helping many other families, but not her own.

her parents, despite having been deeply in love, end up splitting due to the grief of the loss of her brother. there was a lot of blame, of not keeping an eye on him, of not enforcing the rules. she was four at the time, her brother was ten, old enough to know to stay in, but having gotten out anyway while her dad had been working and her mom had been out shopping. they never again left her to her own devices like they had with him.

despite the split, her parents had been very protective of her, more than necessary. she'd rebelled out as a child because of it, hanging out with the wrong crowd had nearly gotten her arrested. fortunately, the off1cer had known her family and had given her a stern talking to and a harsh reality check. veronica ended up going into therapy and didn't hang out with those friends anymore.

when she found her high school had a class that could get her closer to detective work, veronica threw herself into it. the therapist helped her talk to her parents and they loosened their reigns a bit on her. despite her troubled youth, veronica graduated with flying colors and soon got in to college.

now, she's a detective, helping families and looking for clues on what really happened to her brother. she still doesn't know what happened and it haunts her. even though she had been but four, she can remember him being very good with her. it is such a shame the family lost someone that had been such a bright spot in their lives. even though she doesn't have any answers, veronica hopes that she can find some one day.
