So, who is she, exactly?

Allison Perez, a white-collar criminal.
233
00:10:34,362 --> 00:10:36,831
Used to be a controller
at an insurance firm,
234

where she was stealing
tens of millions of dollars
235

until the FBI finally caught up to her.
236
00:10:41,736 --> 00:10:44,473
Then she skipped town
the moment she got out on bail.

Over ten years.

without letting her make
arrangements for his care.
258

So when you find Allie,
