George Tomforde is a trained mercenary at Helios Defense Industries responsible for the unethical, illegal tortures of numerous refugees, including Haroun Abbas, who was killed by the torture for being ready to report the conspiracy. Tomforde then killed Kate Simes, a college humanitarian working with Abbas to write a book on the conspiracy and vindicate Haroun.
Tomforde was reassigned overseas to cover up the conspiracy and prevent prosecution. His status was left unknown. (SVU: "Harm")
