=== Early Life ===
Katherine grew up in Sunnyvale Gardens with her parents Patrick and Lucy. It was on her first day of school that she met Benjamin King, Julius Little and Jennifer Grey. They all developed a strong friendship that lasted into their adulthood.

Katherine played a small part in the establishment of the Vice Kings, offering to help out financially should the need arise. It was a few months after that she married Jack West and two children, Kaleb and Monique. It was two years later that Jennifer died, serving the Vice Kings. In respect of their fallen friend, Katherine, ben and Julius gave her a funeral that became a major part of Vice King history. Katherine continued to support the Vice Kings from there for several years until she and Julius noticed the change in behavior of both Ben himself and his lower ranking members as he became just as reckless as the gangs her swore to stop. Katherine and Julius were forced to drop their flags. Julius wanted to leave it all behind and moved to the untouched district of Saints Row while Katherine cut off all financial support for the Vice Kings, much to Ben's disgust. It was with the birth of her newborn son/daughter, Emma/Chris that she saw Julius again. Jack started to become abusive following his possession of drugs that he started to purchase of the Carnales which lead to their divorce, in which Katherine reverted to her maiden name, in which so did her children.

Katherine burst into tears at the sight of her long, lost son/daughter. Katherine asked why he/she didn't come sooner, Emma/Chris replied saying he/she wanted to wait till Katherine was safe. It was a family reunion that would never be forgotten.
=== Saints-Syndicate War ===

It was while Emma/Chris was recruiting Kinzie Kensington, Zimos and Angel De LaMuerte that Killbane ordered some of his lieutenants to go and burn down Katherine's house. By the time Emma/Chris got word and went to Stilwater to try and save her it was too late and katherine could not be saved as she was trapped in the burning house.

After cutting off financial support for the Vice Kings, she feared for her life and the life of her family, afraid that Ben, with his now cold hearted persona would come for her family.
