Jenny Cabot (Rizzoli & Isles)

Jenny Cabot (Kelly Kruger) is a villainess from "Partners in Crime," episode 4.12 of Rizzoli & Isles (airdate September 10, 2013). She is the wife of Mark Cabot, who owned a lucrative arbitrage business.
However, Jenny grew to despise Mark and had an affair with Mark's sister, Leslie, who worked for Mark and was facing losing her job. At some point before the episode's events, Jenny met Rick Clark, a professor who was married to fellow professor Rhonda Clark. The pair met at a dog park and vented about their marriages, with Rick being bitter over losing tenure to Rhonda, and it was their that they devised a murder pact--with each one killing the other's spouse.
Jenny gave Rick a gun to use on her husband, which he does when he shoots Mark to death at a gym. Meanwhile, the evil Jenny appeared at the Clark home and knocked a boombox into the hot tub while Rhonda was in it. When that didn't kill her, the villainess finished the job by drowning Rhonda in the tub. As part of their pact, the conspirators were never to meet again, except at the dog park.
After some investigating, Jane Rizzoli and the rest of BPD were led to believe that Leslie was behind Mark's murder due to the fact that she was about to lose her job. With the help of Casey Jones, Jane and Vince Korsak tracked and recorded Rick at the dog park, but they were surprised when Jenny, not Leslie, appeared. The villainous pair were shown arguing, with Rick telling Jenny that there was surveillance video of her at the scene (a lie told by Jane to catch them), while revealing Jenny's affair with Leslie. Jenny responded by revealing that she gave Rick the gun and both of them vented about their deceased spouses when Jane and Korsak appeared in front of them. Following the sting, Jenny and Rick were both arrested (off-screen).
== Trivia ==
* Kelly Kruger also played villainess Nikki Childress on Knight Rider and robber Felicity Shepherd on Republic of Doyle, and later appeared as the evil Joelle in the 2017 film, Girls Night Out.
* In the episode, Jenny's scheme drew similarities to the Hitchcock film, Strangers On a Train. A similar scheme took place in a CSI episode involving villainesses Kelly Goodson and Audrey Hilden. The differences:
** Jenny had a male partner; the CSI episode had two women involved in the plot
** The CSI villainesses only killed one of the victims; Jenny and her partner killed each of their intended targets
** Only Kelly actually committed murder; Jenny and her partner both willingly killed
** Kelly ended up killing Audrey; Jenny and her partner both survived (and were arrested)
