About Leo

The team leader, Leo is a highly experienced pathologist and born teacher who upholds the standards of his team at the Lyell Centre. Not one to mince his words, he is tough and unafraid of delivering difficult truths, but he also has an understanding of how people operate.

Leo's background

Leo's wife and daughter were killed in a tragic car accident and his motivation for work has become a search for justice. However, he understands that steering a course to justice isn't as simple as following the rules, and if needs be, he'll bend them occasionally. Recently, Leo has found happiness in a new relationship with fellow professor, Janet Mander.
