HELENA HARPER 2
Helena's intense senses of justice and responsibility make her exceedingly aggressive in everything, but she had a fault in that it was also easy for her to become emotional and lose her cool.
Helena's emotional side came from the strength of her sense of justice and was the only element that worried the authorities. That uneasiness was soon proven right.
During an investigation of a serial murder case, Helena admirably restrained the offender, but on this occasion she used excessive force and was suspended from duty. When questioned by authorities, she answered, "I had to shut him up because the offender wouldn't stop using verbal abuse in front of the bereaved."
Helena's a woman with unwavering faith and righteousness.
After returning, the emotional behavior produced by her steel will remained the same and finally, when her younger sister Deborah's boyfriend injured her from a backlash over breaking up, she committed an irreparable blunder by shooting him, inflicting serious injury.
It was an incident out of love for her younger sister, but the authorities still overlooked this and didn't let it go, so Helena was transferred to assist the USSS (United States Secret Service). It was formally a temporary transfer, but for an agent it was virtually a discharge.
Hunnigan evaluated the strength of Helena's faith and was about to ascertain her qualities as a DSO member, but it was all blanked by this case.
A report addressed to Hunnigan from Helena's superior remains.

"Ms. Ingrid Hunnigan
Effective immediately, Helena Harper has been temporarily transferred to the USSS.
We will observe and see how she handles her new position at the USSS, but at this rate I don't see her lasting much longer in this line of work. There is the factor that, in anger, she fired upon a civilian after her sister Deborah was seriously injured by her boyfriend. While the mentality of someone whose family has been harmed is understandable, it's too reckless for the behavior of an agent with a mission to defend the United States.
I understand you appear to have been scrutinizing Helena but, as her superior, I must inform you that I deem her unfit for duty. If the DSO is the Sword of the President, Helena's sharpness would be perfect indeed. However, she's double-edged, so to speak. If she swings herself carelessly she could hurt herself, or might even injure her allies."
Her emotional side, blind love for her sister and temporary transfer to the USSS. With his sights fixed on those, Helena was used by Simmons in a plot to assassinate the President.

ヘレナ・ハーパー2
ヘレナは、人一倍責任感、正義感が強く何事にも積極的だが、これは、感情に流されやすく冷静さを失いやすいという欠点にもなっていた。
彼女の、正義感の強さから来る感情的な一面は、当局がヘレナに抱く唯一の不安要素だった。そして、その不安は間もなく的中する。
連続殺人事件の捜査中、見事に犯人を取り抑えたヘレナだったが、その際、犯人に対して過剰な暴力を振るってしまい停職処分となった。当局の聴取に対しては、「犯人が、遺族の前での暴言を止めなかったため黙らせた」と答えている。
ヘレナは、己の正義と信念を決して曲げない女性なのである。
復帰後もその鋼の意志が生み出す感情的な行動は相変わらずで、ついには、妹・デボラの交際相手が、別れ話のもつれから彼女を傷つけた際、発砲して重傷を負わせるという取り返しのつかない失態を犯してしまった。
妹への愛情ゆえの事件だったが、さすがに当局もこれを看過するわけには行かず、ヘレナはUSSS（アメリカ合衆国シークレットサービス）の補佐に回された。出向という形だったが、事実上、エージェントとしては解雇である。
ハニガンは、ヘレナの信念の強さを評価して、DSOメンバーとしての資質を見極めようとしていたが、この一件によりすべて白紙となってしまった。
そのときの、ヘレナの上司からハニガンへ宛てた報告書が残っている。

「イングリッド・ハニガン殿
本日付けで、ヘレナ・ハーパーをUSSS出向とした。
しばらくUSSSで様子を見るが、このままの流れでは遠からずすべての職を解くことになるだろう。彼女が一般人へ発砲をおこなった要因は、妹デボラに重傷を負わせた交際相手への怒りにある。家族を傷つけられた者の心理としては理解できるが、合衆国を守る使命にあるエージェントの行動としてはあまりに軽率だ。
君はヘレナをチェックしていたらしいが、上司の私から不適合との判断を伝える。DSOが大統領の剣であるならば、なるほどヘレナの切れ味は申し分ないだろう。しかし、彼女はいわば諸刃だ。振り上げれば、自分や、下手をすれば味方まで傷つけかねない」
感情的な一面、妹への溺愛、USSSへの出向。それらに目を付けられたヘレナは、シモンズによって大統領暗殺計画に利用されることになる。

HELENA HARPER 2
Helena Harper doesn't compromise her beliefs, and is not one to step aside and let others take charge. She does, however, have a tendency to let her emotions get the best of her. She was in the top of her class, and the agency's first choice for the job, but officials were concerned that she would let her morals let in the way of her work. They were right.
While investigating a series of murders, Helena successfully found and apprehended the killer. In the process, she used excessive force on the suspect and was suspended from the agency. She claimed she had to shut the killer up because he was making threats in front of the victim's family.
After her suspension period was over, she found herself in situations where she couldn't maintain her self-control. When Deborah's boyfriend became abusive, an enraged Helena shot and injured him. Her superiors were unwilling to overlook her gross misconduct, but they didn't want to fire her, so they transferred her to the Secret Service.
During the attack on Tall Oaks, Helena was manipulated by Derek Simmons in his plan to assassinate President Adam Benford.
Because of the incident with her sister's abusive boyfriend, Helena's chances to join the DSO were ruined. Below is a report sent from one of Helena's superiors to Hunnigan, who had supported the idea of Helena joining the DSO on account of her strong will.
---
Hunnigan,
As from today, Helena Harper is to report for duty and serve under the USSS. We will watch and see how she handles her new position, but as far as I can tell, I don't see her lasting for much longer in this line of work.
I understand the anger she must have felt when her sister Deborah was put in the hospital by an abusive boyfriend, but no matter what the circumstances, firing on an unarmed civilian is unacceptable conduct for a government agent. Not only that, but she could also put those around her in danger. I am aware of her abilities and I know that you think well of her, but this is my decision.
