Stacey Harrington (Body of Proof)

Stacey Harrington (Tracy Middendorf) is the hidden main villainess from "Breakout," the penultimate episode of Body of Proof (airdate May 14, 2013). She is the second wife of wealthy Emmitt Harrington.
== Backstory ==
Four years prior to the episode's events, Stacey actually worked as Emmitt's assistant, and while performing her duties, she spotted Emmitt's first wife, Caroline, having an affair with Robert Riley. Following this, Stacey stabbed Caroline to death and successfully framed Riley for the murder, doing so due to the fact that she carried a torch for Emmitt. The villainess also paid off witnesses to back her claim that Riley committed the murder. Stacey's evil plan led to Riley being arrested and convicted for Caroline's murder, and she later posed as a means of support for Emmitt, which led to them becoming husband and wife.
== Events ==
In the episode's events, Riley escaped while being transferred, looking to clear his name and get revenge on Emmitt. After hearing about the breakout, the evil Stacey used that to her advantage and shot Marcus Webb (one of Emmitt's chauffers and a witness) to death, and set up Riley as a vengeful murderer. Megan Hunt, who worked on the Caroline Harrington murder case, discovered the knife used in her murder in the home, which led to Emmitt being questioned. However, after female DNA was found, Stacey was finally revealed as a villainess in the episode's climax. Despite Emmitt's pleas for Stacey to deny everything, Stacey confessed, stating that Caroline wasn't faithful and she did what she did for Emmitt. Following her villainous confession, Stacey was arrested for the murders of Caroline Harrington and Marcus Webb.
== Trivia ==
* Stacey Harrington was Body of Proof's final one-shot villainess.
* Stacey Harrington is mostly similar to Mentalist villainess Mae Feinberg. Both of them fell in love with married men and killed their crush's wives in order to replace them. They also continued committing murder to keep their evil secrets hidden. One glaring difference is that Mae began an affair with her crush before killing his wife; Stacey (according to the episode) didn't began her relationship with her future husband until after she murdered his first wife.
* Tracy Middendorf also appeared on Law & Order: SVU as villainess Sarah Flint.
== Quotes ==
* "Caroline wasn't faithful to you, but I knew you would never leave her. She didn't love you the way that I do. But I did it for you. I did it for you!" (Stacey Harrington's confession to killing Caroline Harrington)
