## History

### Season 2

Leah is seen traveling with her family. They plea to be let into Crawford after approaching the gates, however, they are denied entry. They walk away, disappointed. Later, as Lane is driving the car, they loop around the walls of Crawford, however, Lane swerves the car into the walls of Crawford while avoiding a walker. Leah is the first to get out and start clearing the walkers, as the citizens of Crawford emerge from their homes to help.

Leah takes a nap after they've cleared the herd, and she awakes only to be informed by Riley that Juanita had died, and that her husband, David, was comatose. When the wall was once again breached, Leah decided to step up in order to prove her family was strong enough to help the community. She stole some keys for a large truck, and used it to block off the section of the wall breached by the herd, impressing the Crawford citizens.

Leah sat with David in the infirmary, and had a nice chat with Clementine, where she learned a woman in the community was in labor. Ready to step up once more, using her medical school knowledge, Leah sprung to help. Leah helped with the labor until she was no longer needed, and despite her and Amanda's best attempts, Molly died, however, her baby, Izzie, was born healthy. Leah chatted with Amanda later, comforting the woman over Molly's death. Leah was not present as Nea killed Bruce and stole the truck Leah had previously placed on the wall's breach to stop the herd from entering Crawford. However, when Tara was shot in the commotion, and Amanda was injured, Leah took over her medicinal duties, saving Tara's life.

Despite her medical school knowledge, Leah's attempts to wake David up failed, and he remained comatose for two weeks until finally he awoke when Crawford's walls were finally destroyed by the Magenta herd. Leah, David, Amanda, and Tara were able to hide atop the infirmary roof as the herd poured into the building, killing Cheryl. Leah is able to escape from Crawford with David, Amanda, Tara, Ben, and Riley, the latter two joining them on the roof soon after their arrival.

On the road, Tara was separated from the rest of the group. Leah joined the group as they headed to the nearby town of Wilkerson to search for her. There, the group was taken captive by Jenn and Steve. The groups were separated, with Steve taking Leah, David, and Amanda, however, Amanda was able to escape, but was unable to rescue Leah and David. Taken to an old Red Bull Warehouse, Leah and David were tied up, where they were eventually found by Harper, who was searching for Andrea. Suddenly, Steve returned, and Harper and David fought the man, however, he got a shot off that hit Leah in the leg.

The three escaped from the warehouse, but Leah realized she was slowing them down, so she forced the two to leave her behind. After an emotional goodbye, Leah put up a last stand against the pack of walkers with only her sidearm.
