Biography
Jana was attempting to become an FBI agent along with her friend (and lover), Gina Mendez, but had to give it up to become a parent for their children. After giving birth to a boy, Gina stated that Jana went insane, having murdered the neighbors dog out of stress. Possibly due to this, Jana became a follower of Joe Carroll, becoming one of his greatest assets since no one, not even Roderick, knew of her.

While she was not shown in season 1, Jana was responsible for helping Joe fake his death in the lighthouse with his half-brother's body, having hacked Debra Parker's email various times. Since then, she's been using Mendez's security clearance to keep check on Joe and be sure they find nothing on him.

However, at that moment Jana stabs her twice. Jana refuses to let her ruin everything and leaves her for dead and spits on her body.
