Bio

Law and Order

Law & Order is an American police procedural and legal drama television series created by Dick Wolf. It has been broadcast on NBC since its debut on September 13, 1990. Set in New York City, the series mainly follows the professional lives of several police officers and prosecutors who represent the public interest in the criminal justice system. The characters frequently encounter dilemmas and frustrations as cases go through the stages of investigation, arrest, negotiation and trial.

Nina Cassady

She was transferred to the 27th after a shootout at a beauty parlor, which led to the press nicknaming her "Detective Beauty Queen". Other episodes revealed that she was born in Queens, New York, came from a family of police officers and attended Sunday school for six years.

She was initially looked down upon for having less experience than her fellow homicide detectives, and her promotion to Homicide was seen as a fluke after her high profile shootout in the beauty parlor. In the 17 season opener, there was tension with her boss, Lt. Anita Van Buren, who stated that she had a "hand-picked" replacement for Det. Joe Fontana, a much older and more experienced detective. Van Buren appeared to have come to accept Cassady, however, at least up until the season finale. After Cassady botched an interrogation by losing her temper and goading a suspect who was close to confessing (the suspect was enraged to the point that he threw a chair through a glass window), Van Buren chastised her for acting unprofessionally after eight months on the job, suggesting that Cassady may not have a future in homicide at the 27th precinct. Cassady was no longer a character of the precinct at the start of the eighteenth season.

Cassady is of Irish descent, as is revealed after a famous actor used anti-Semitic slurs against her while being interrogated.

Nina post-season 17

After being transferred from the 2-7, Nina was sent over to the homicide unit attached to the crime lab in the fourteenth precinct. She was placed under the tutelage of Detective Don Flack, Jr.. He was just as thrilled to put up with her as Green and the Lieu were, but she seems to be doing better in the long run. She’s still trying to pick up a few things here and there, and she’s still very much learning, but she’s not floundering as much she used to.

She’s also working with Detective Jessica Angell and Detective Lindsay Monroe, whom she gets along with rather well.

[No CSI:NY muses are obligated to play in this post-canon version of Nina, this is just me sliding her into a post-canon verse for her to play in.]

Nina in Roanoke

The Nina in Roanoke is a bit AU from the one mentioned above. She was taken out of her season seventeen canon, and dropped into the Roanoke Precinct. She currently lives in a houseboat with her boyfriend, Avery Rallita.

If she insistent enough, Nina may respond to prompts from communities she's not a member of, just to keep the muse cooperating.

Not Nina Cassady. She's fictional. She doesn’t belong to me either, she belongs to Dick Wolf. Not Milena Govich, her PB, either, nor does she belong to me, she owns herself. This is all in good fun, and I'll put everything back just where I found them.
