She disregarded due process, and she exposed my transgressions, and now I must return the favor."

"Oh, only a couple of them."
"Still, it's a whole new branch of the law. It's absolutely fascinating." - ―Peter Lyonne and Jeri Hogarth[src]
Lyonne and his wife Kith held the Zoey Lyonne Arts Scholarship Benefit Concert in honor of their late daughter. Much to their surprise, Jeri Hogarth, Kith's past flame was in attendance. Kith and Hogarth discussed their past. It had been twenty five years since they last seen each other. Hogarth then pointed out the fact that she gave and supported the benefit concert every year. Lyonne had been following Hogarth's defense of super powered vigilantes, as he was a lawyer, but was now a professor of criminal law. Before leaving, Hogarth gave Kith her card as they were to arrange a meeting to catch up.[3]
Suicide[]
Exposed by Hogarth[]
- "I have been studying a new and very treacherous legal specialty. The defense of the superhuman vigilante. Jeryn Hogarth and her firm are leading this charge. Hence, these powered felons are at her beck and call. Her clients have been accused of assault, of murder, of much more. Yet Jeryn Hogarth sees to it that these super criminals still continue to walk our streets. Every single one of us, the entire fabric of our legal system, is at risk. I can't fight this fight. It's too late for me. Oh, God. I beg you, somebody, stop her."
- ―Peter Lyonne[src]
Peter was going about his day when it suddenly came out that he had been stealing money from the charity for his girlfriends. Peter quickly realized this was Jeri Hogarth's doing and confronted her at her apartment. Peter admitted to doing all those things, but he claimed that he was going to tell Kith Lyonne. He accused Hogarth of destroying their life so that Kith would come to her, but Kith didn't want to hear his excuses. Peter told Hogarth that she could not have Kith and she simply said the he could not either.
Not long after, Peter posted a video, where he accused Hogarth of ruining his life and having powered individuals at her beck and call. As it turned out, Peter filmed the video in his bathtub, as he slit his wrist and bled out. His final request was that someone stop Hogarth. And in his last words, he apologized to his wife and son. The police later found his body in his bathtub.[4]
