Biography[]
Season 2[]
On the morning of November 5th, 2014, Helena discovered the bodies of Grant and Ursula in their bedroom, brutally tortured and murdered. After calling the police, an investigation began which implicated Caleb and Catherine. It was mentioned on the news that Helena saw the siblings leaving the scene of the crime.
They hired Victor Leshner and his law firm as their defense and the case began having hearings before a court in early 2015. Annalise found out about the case on the news and wanted to take it, so she visited the siblings in the courthouse to tell them to hire her, but Victor and his team showed up. Later Annalise tasked the Keating 5 with coming up with ways to force the Hapstall siblings to fire Victor and hire her. Laurel stopped one of Victor's associates in the restroom and handed her a memory stick with footage of the aunt leaving the Gladness spa on the same night she claimed to see Caleb and Catherine murdering their parents. In court, Helena took the stand and testified to what she saw the night of the murders during Jeremy Eastham's cross. Victor was able to discredit her by showing the security camera footage to the court.
The next day, Jeremy had Helena back on the stand and had her clarify that she was at the Gladness spa in November 2013, but in 2014 she was home witnessing the murder. He then presented to the court the original security footage, and the edited version that the defense presented to the court. Victor put together that Annalise and her team were behind it.
Later in court Annalise presented evidence that the police ran two DNA tests the night Helena was found. The first test had no DNA match for Caleb, but the second one did. They then deleted the original report. As a result, the charges for Helena's murder were dropped. That night Emily Sinclair told Asher that she was the new prosecutor on the Hapstall case, after Jeremy was presumably taken off the case after what happened in court.
