CSI: crime
scene investigation
“Sofia
Curtis” (Louise
Lombard)
Sofia Curtis started as a CSI, before following in her mother’s
footsteps and becoming a detective. She has a unique perspective on
crime, having seen it both as a scientist, and as a cop.
She’s detail-oriented, no-nonsense, and harder on herself than
anybody. Her tough demeanor with
suspects belies her more easygoing side, which we only catch glimpses of
– heading to a crime scene
directly from a fancy dinner in a strapless dress, or joking with her
colleagues.
