## Background Information

Born in the suburbs of Atlanta to a police chief father and criminal prosecutor mother, Elaine grew up with a very strong sense of right and wrong. From a young age, she hoped to follow in the family footsteps and go into law or law enforcement, with her true goal to be a detective. To prepare herself she practiced shooting, studied martial arts, and joined JROTC in high school. Tragedy struck just as Elaine was graduating from high school and joining the police academy though, and her life took a drastic turn. When her father was accused of corruption and let go from the local police force, it devastated Elaine and tore her family apart. Her mother left to save her own reputation, and her father turned to drinking, eventually drinking himself to death. With her faith in the justice system tarnished, Elaine decided to turn to journalism and filmmaking, deciding to expose the wrongs of the world through the court of popular opinion rather than that of law. After she finished college, Elaine was ready to move away from the bad memories of Georgia, and decided to head for Los Santos, a city known for its chaos and corruption and a place she felt she could make a true difference.
