History
First generation American born in San Francisco, second born to a couple from London whom met and had children later in life
Despite being younger, she often was looked to as the emotional support by both her elder sister and parents
Did well in school, as that was expected of her
Presented a prim and pleasant image, but harbored a twisted fascination with true crime and supernatural phenomena
Graduated at the top of her class, had potential to go to any college she wished and become a doctor or lawyer, but shocked everyone in her life by pursuing a degree in criminology, with a secondary in journalism
Spent the bulk of her twenties interviewing police, victims, and criminals alike and publishing for various different outlets
Wrote and published a book about a string of crimes that she believed to be supernatural in nature
Gathered a small fan base, the head of which was a man named David
David claimed to have once been an investigator, and reached out often to share his thoughts and opinions on her writing
They began to meet in person, then began to casually date
David was a vampire
She remembers the six months of their relationship in bits and pieces of truth
His sick game ended when she discovered him feeding on her roommate
She fled, and reported him to the police, but he had seemingly disappeared from existence by the time the police bothered to investigate
Traumatized and paranoid, Edith abandoned her work and moved in with her parents for a few years, and discovered in that time an incredible lack of support for the victims of supernatural crime
She entered law enforcement right before her twenty ninth birthday, determined to dedicate the rest of her life to helping people like her
Shuffled around California for a few years before landing a position of a lifetime in Ridgefield
Still green, but eager, she gladly accepts the tutelage of her assigned partner
Other
Not a pet person, but her therapist recommended one, so she has a beta fish called "Fish"
