Leah Sullivan (Perception)

Leah Sullivan (Martha Hackett) is the main villainess from "Toxic," episode 2.04 of Perception (airdate July 16, 2013). She is the wife of Brooksville Chemical owner Martin Sullivan, and the mother of their only son Braden Sullivan.
As revealed in the episode, Braden was dating Patti Wallace, who was the daughter of Anne Wallace. Both Martin and Leah disapproved of the relationship, especially the latter, with Braden originally believing that it was due to hatred of Patti. In actuality, Patti was the product of Martin's affair with Anne, and the reason they didn't want the couple together was because they were half-siblings. However, when Leah found a recorded video of Braden and Patti together in her son's email, she went to Anne's home to confront her, only to find Patti instead.
Patti informed Leah that Anne was in Pittsburgh, which meant that Martin was still seeing her, as he was in Pittsburgh that same night. Leah shouted at Patti and ordered her to stay away from Braden, and when Patti refused, she revealed the truth: that Martin was Patti's biological father and that she and Braden were half-siblings. Patti accused Leah of lying to keep her and Braden apart, and threatened to tell Braden before she was about to slam the door in Leah's face. Leah turned heel and attacked Patti after forcing her way into the house, doing so by pressing her against the wall. Patti (who suffered from neurofibromatosis) ended up suffering a fatal heart attack, and knowing that she'd be held responsible for her death, the evil Leah covered up her role by making it appear that Patti committed suicide by hanging.
Anne approached Dr. Daniel Pierce regarding Patti, and it was the episode's progression that revealed that Patti was murdered. A quartet of girls who suffered from a disorder called pandas were suspected, but while they were revealed as the ones who recorded the video and sent it, they weren't the killers. Pierce and Kate's latest meeting with the Sullivans revealed the truth about Patti, including Leah's role in Patti's death. The villainess confessed everything, while also voicing her bitterness toward Anne and blaming Martin and his affair for her actions. Leah was later arrested (off-screen) for manslaughter.
