Trivia

  • She is Catholic (more precisely Roman Catholic), as in the episode Standoff, she made the sign of the cross before turning off the power to downtown LA for an undercover operation. More precisely, she made the sign of the cross touching her left shoulder before her right (this variation is unique to Roman Catholics).
