Carol Jarvis (Castle)

Carol Jarvis (Wendy Braun) is the main villainess from "Kill Switch," episode 7.08 of Castle (airdate November 24, 2014). She worked at the Government Accountability Office alongside Paul Reeves.
Carol often sent Paul to investigate illegal activities regarding health care, but ironically, Carol turned heel at some point by engaging in her own illegal tactics in an alliance with Latham Pharmaceuticals, who had devised a vaccine for the H5N1 flu virus. She had bought numerous shares of Latham stock, and to make sure she would make a lot of money, Carol colluded with a Latham executive to unleash the virus so orders for the vaccine would increase.
As part of her villainous plot, the evil Carol enlisted Jared Stone (whose girlfriend, Erin Wilson, was prosecuted by Carol's husband) to unleash the virus unknowingly, as his inhaler was laced with the virus as part of the plan, Jared created a hostage situation at a subway train, with one of the hostages being detective Javier Esposito, and he made demands to have Erin released, while fully unaware that he was spreading the virus. While investigating Latham, Paul found out about Carol's heel turn and her evil plan, leading to the villainess sending an assassin to shoot him to death.
The entire NYPD was led to believe it was a routine hostage situation, until they learned about the virus, and it was Kate Beckett's digging into the epidemic that ended up revealing Carol as the villainous mastermind. Beckett and Richard Castle interrogated Carol, who denied her role in the scheme, but when Beckett uncovered everything and questioned her greedy motives, Carol demanded a lawyer before she was arrested (off-screen).
