− | * | + | * '''District Attorney Pia Yoque''' (voiced by [[Marti McDaniel]]) - Quill County DA who first appears in "[[The Rape of Heather Willis]]". Pia has been the district attorney since 1984. Yoque graduated from Indiana University. In 1994, she tried Melanie Tibbs for the female-on-male rape and murder of Kate Zobrowski. Although Melanie maintained her innocence, she was convicted of being identified in the Zobrowski house by Kate's mother, Elinda Zobrowski (also Dana Jane Zobrowski's mother), and Melanie who captured three blocks from home with blood on her boots. Melanie was home on that day as part of a story at Elinda Langston apologizing for a fight first. In fact, officer Joe Noland (who retired from Quillsville PD in 2000) took the letter from Melanie before her arrest.<BR>Thirty years later, Yoque was approached by Lieutenant [[Nick Jeffries]] and Captain [[Brad Hunter]] regarding the case after Elinda Langston recanted her earlier statement and Noland had died from stage 4 prostate cancer. Yoque was angered when Hunter and Jeffries asked for a warrant to search the evidence in the Internal Affairs case against Noland for the letter. Yoque was unswayed by the change in evidence, and refused, maintaing Melanie, who was due to be executed in three days, was guilty.<BR>The day after Melanie's execution, Jeffries searched through the evidence anyway and discovered Melanie's letter, which corroborated her story and cast suspicion on his boss Caroline Nelson (then known as Kyle Nelson). When Yoque walked into the evidence room, demanding to know what Jeffries was doing, Jeffries confronted her with the letter, which Yoque had apparently been aware of. When Yoque, completely unrepentant, still insisted in a condescending tone that Melanie was guilty, Jeffries punched her in the nose and walked out.<BR>Yoque went to Captain Hunter's office later that day, demanding that Jeffries be punished, and was incenced when Hunter allowed him to conduct the interview of Caroline Nelson. Caroline was later arrested for Kate's murder, and though Jeffries was restricted to desk duty for punching Yoque, Yoque herself would eventually be suspended from the DA's office and reprimanded by the Quill County Prosecutor for her actions. Yoque retired from the Quill County District Attorney's office in 2028 after 44 years. |
