Dr. Verusca Vela (Rizzoli & Isles)

Dr. Verusca Vela (Kari Coleman) is a villainess from "Dead Weight," episode 7.07 of Rizzoli & Isles (airdate July 18, 2016). She is a cosmetic surgeon who was called into Boston PD regarding the death of drug dealer Robert Hall.
Vela's appearance was due to the fact that Robert was killed with a bomb made out of (among other things) human fat, as one of the DNA samples at the scene belonged to a patient of hers, a drug dealer known as "Big Yao." She used her doctor-patient confidentiality to remain silent regarding any details, and though it turned out that she wasn't the murderer, Vela was revealed as a villainous cost-cutter.
For the last year, Vela had been dumping canisters of discarded fat in a nearby dumpster, while only sending a few canisters to Sunland Medical Waste to be incinerated. Maura Isles searched Vela's records and that served as her reveal, as Vela had performed enough surgeries to create 300 canisters per month, but she was only billed for 100 per month. 
After this, Korsak went with Frankie to track Vela, who was spotted dumping a canister, which was later revealed to be empty. However, after the pair saw a bunch of canisters in the dumpster (which is where the actual killer got them), the evil Vela confessed to her actions--callously blaming her actions on people choosing to work out rather then get liposuction, stating that it was ruining her business. The villainess boasted that she wasn't making a bomb, but Frankie was quick to remind her that she was still breaking the law. Vela was later arrested (off-screen).
