Your Character
There is history between her and you. She was your former captain when you were on the force, and your opinion of her and her detectives is quite low. She also believes the false accusations levelled against you, considering you a disgrace. She comes to the agency and demands Mafalda drop the investigation, threatening to send the force after you if you continue. When you and Trystan are arrested in Chapter 11, she once again orders you to drop the investigation, or she'll arrest you and Trystan for obstruction.

Mafalda Ginovesi
According to her, she and Mafalda always gotten along and had an understanding. However, she says that if she catches even a whiff that you are snooping around, she'll come down on the agency with the full force of the NYPD.

John Brigham
Not much is known about their relationship, but it is clear that they have similar goals, as they both want to keep you off the Dormer case and let the police handle it. This is most likely due to the fact that Brigham had an affair with Bethany, which means that they want to cover things up or protect themselves.
