Description
was born on April 29, 1985, and celebrated her 30th birthday during the events of the Intelligence/Special Victims Unit joint operation to apprehend a serial rapist, killer, and arsonist (portrayed by Dallas Roberts).[2][3]
Little is known about Lindsay's early childhood except that her biological father, who is in prison, abused her and her mother Bunny was a drug addict. She has a half-brother, Teddy Courtney, who was taken by a pedophilia ring at age 13 and was found by NYPDdetectives ten years later working as a male prostitute.[4][5]
Lindsay grew up on the street and by the age of 14, she had already been arrested 5 times on charges including misdemeanor, simple battery, retail theft, solicitation, and unlawful possession of cannabis. At some point in her early teens, she became then-Detective Hank Voight's CI. Later, Voight took her in and raised her like a daughter. When she was 16, Voight had her enrolled in St. Ignatius College Prep for a new start, however the girls at the school quickly found out about her past. St. Ignatius made a deal with Voight that if Erin was in a fight, she would be expelled. Erin opted to tolerate the bullying instead of disappointing Voight.[6] Because of this, she is closer with Voight than the other members of the unit.
Lindsay didn't attend college, but instead went straight into the police academy after high school. After graduation, she spent four years on the west side of Chicago as a patrol officer, which she said was all the education she needed.[7]
One of her first weeks in uniform she caught a young boy shoplifting. The boy took it out from his pocket and put it back. She got whatever she was getting and then heard gunshots she ran outside and saw the boy lying dead on the ground while two men drove off. She still feels guilty about this and tells Lieutenant Kelly Severide about it.
In season 1, she dated CFD firefighter Lieutenant Kelly Severide from Chicago Fire and was one of the lead detectives investigating the kidnapping of Severide's half-sister Katie. She has a close working partnership with Detective Jay Halstead that could develop into something more personal later on. However, Voight has strictly forbidden any non-professional relationship between the two. This is partly due to Lindsay's implied commitment issues stemming from her rough childhood. Lindsay has compassion for vulnerable young people as she can relate. She tries twice unsuccessfully to get a 17-year-old prostitute and heroin addict, Nadia, to enter drug rehab. In "A Beautiful Friendship", Erin has successfully helped Nadia with her drug addiction and helps her get a job as the Intelligence Unit's civilian administrative aide.[8]
In "Conventions", Lindsay strikes up a friendship with Detective Amanda Rollins, of the NYPD Special Victims Unit.[6] The two partnered up again during the joint-Chicago/New York City investigation into a pedophile ring.
In "8:30 PM", Lindsay is attacked by a suspect that had connections to the bombing. He threatens to hurt her with a knife but she is rescued when firefighters Cruz and Mills blindside him from behind and free Lindsay.
In "Chicago Crossover", Lindsay is injured by a cyclist while in pursuit of a suspect with connections to a pedophile ring. Voight urges Lindsay to go back to Chicago and rest as she has concussion.[4]
In "Called in Dead", Lindsay takes a job with a federal task force,[9] and in "We Don't Work Together Anymore", she is deputized as a DEA task force officer.[10] In "Disco Bob", Lindsay becomes disillusioned with the task force, with its seemingly-endless bureaucracy and the menial tasks her handler assigned to her (she was to spend a number of weeks with the target's wife, simultaneously pumping her for information and keeping her out of the task force's way), leading her to resign and return to the Chicago PD and Intelligence.[11] While on the task force, she consummates her relationship with Jay.
In "Daydream Believer", she takes the case personally when Nadia becomes one of Greg Yates victims. She is still slowly recovering. She believed that she got her killed.
In "There's My Girl", she is still trying to process Nadia's recent death.
In "Push The Pain Away", Erin wakes up hungover at her mother's after a wild and drug fuelled night with a guy she knows from her childhood, Landon. Voight shows his concern for her stating that she looks like she's been up all night. He's afraid she will fall back into old habits. Even Platt tries to talk to her but she doesn't seem to care. She still blames herself for Nadia's death. Later in the episode, a gun is pointed at her by Nick, a boy who has lost his cousin due to a mass shooting. She tells him to shoot her over and over again but her talking causes him to lower his weapon. Erin walks away from Voight after that.
In "Born Into Bad News", the guilt is too much to bear so she starts spiralling out of control. She hooks up with an old friend and does drugs and drinks in excess, causing her to be late for work repeatedly which doesn't go unnoticed by Voight. At the end, while grieving over Nadia's death, she decides to leave the department when Voight confronts her in her mother's bar. Despite his attempts to get her to stay in the department, she still continues with her decision at her mother's discretion. She hands Voight her badge and he leaves her in the bar.
In the premiere of season 3, Jay finds Erin after a hard night of partying and confronts her about giving up her badge. She dismisses his concerns, walking away. Later in the episode, Jay is kidnapped and tortured. It is demanded that a female officer brings all the CI files to the kidnappers in exchange for Jay's life. Voight clears Erin to do the drop, giving back her badge temporarily. He reminds her it's only for one day. Erin does the drop, taking falsified CI files instead of the legitimate ones. When the false files are discovered, the kidnappers order Jay to be killed in front of Erin. Both Lindsay and Halstead fight back, with Erin shooting the kidnapper. Halstead tells her that he's glad she's the one that was sent in. At the end of the episode, Erin tells Voight she wants to keep her badge. Voight agrees but under three conditions. She moves back in with him, does weekly drug tests and severs all ties with her mother. Bunny tries to get back at Voight by turning in "evidence" incriminating Voight of supposedly providing a false statement to put James Beckett in jail for robbery and triple homicide; this later backfires on her when Voight and his colleagues were found to be innocent and Beckett had actually been shortchanged by his partner-in-crime. Lindsay returns to her apartment a month later, after proving her sobriety and earning back Voight's trust. After some hesitation, she decides to rekindle her relationship with Halstead and they go public with their relationship for the first time by kissing at Molly's.[12]
