Law and Order

Angela Jones is a woman who was allegedly sexually abused by Eddie Upshaw in 2001.

History[]

Growing up, Angela was a friend of Eddie's daughter. On June 15, 2001, he apparently molested her for the first time when she was eleven. After an investigation, a trial started, but the charges were eventually dropped as nobody believed Angela. Traumatized, she spiraled out of control and became addicted to drugs, resulting in her eventually being arrested for drug possession. Despite receiving therapy, it wasn't enough to help her with her trauma. Angela was eventually imprisoned and released in 2025. One night, she brutally assaulted and sodomized Eddie, branding him with the date that the alleged abuse started. Eddie was found by Sam Carson and his father, the former also being an alleged victim of Eddie's.

Angela was eventually arrested by Detectives Velsaco and Curry after a long chase. Angela told the detectives everything that happened and showed no remorse for what she did to Eddie. As Sam was too traumatized and frightened to testify, the charges against Eddie were dropped. Meanwhile, Angela pleaded down to felony second-degree assault, which carried no prison time but forced her to be on parole for an extended period of time. At the conclusion of the investigation, Captain Benson told Angela that she hated what she did to Eddie, but she hated what Eddie did to her even more, allowing Angela to know that someone finally believed her.
