Kylie Cramer (Cold Case)

Kylie Cramer (Joelle Carter [Past]/Daphne Ashbrook) is the main villainess from "Thick as Thieves," episode 5.05 of Cold Case (airdate October 21, 2007). She is a motel maid and the former lover of Spencer Mason.
Kylie met Spencer when he was living at her motel, and the pair began a romantic relationship, which was noticed by Spencer's mother, Margot Chambers. As Kylie would later learn, Spencer and Margot were con artists, and after the brother of one of Margot's victims confronted her, an escape plan was devised. The plan had Margot faking her death, with Spencer killing Kylie and posing her as Margot, after which Spencer would receive a $3 million insurance payout. As part of the ruse (which Spencer reluctantly agreed to), Kylie was made to look like Margot, having her hair dyed and dressed in Margot's clothes.
On March 28, 1989, Kylie was apparently shot by Spencer, but as Margot would later learn, Spencer's gun was loaded with blanks. At that moment, Kylie emerged and stood behind Spencer, who pointed a gun at his mother, revealing that they planned to kill Margot and split the $3 million. The villainess ordered Spencer to shoot Margot, but when he couldn't, the evil Kylie took the gun from Spencer and fired the shot. Afterwards, Kylie dumped Margot's body out on the street, but to the surprise of the pair, Margot survived, but was hospitalized and placed in a vegetative state. Kylie waited three days for Spencer to meet her, only to find him at the hospital visiting Margot after learning that she was alive. She pleaded with Spencer to leave with her, but Spencer refused to leave his mother's side.revaealing that he felt genuine remorse for what he had done to his mother and was angry at Kylie for making him do it.
Margot remained in a coma for 18 years until she died of the gunshot in the episode's events, with Kylie's villainous role being hidden until Spencer revealed everything to Lilly Rush. In her interrogation, Kylie stated that killing Margot was Spencer's idea, while adding that she never had a chance with Spencer as long as Margot was in his life. She also revealed that she cleaned up the scene on her own, and voiced her anger over Margot living for as long as she did after the shooting, right before Kylie was arrested.
