Jessica Jones

Overview
Jessica Jones is an ornery private investigator at Alias Investigations with superpowers who has no interest in being a "hero".

Early Life
Jessica had a terrible home life and was the victim of a serious case of clinical depression, which led to 2 suicide attempts.

AKA Kilgrave
Jessica is a private investigator who often deals with odd cases. Amongst these was a case considering the odd superhero The Grasshopper and a case concerning a seemingly normal secretary who is secretly a drug lord. She meets and subsequently dates Zebediah Kilgrave.

After inadvertently busting a drug lord, Kilgrave reveals to her that he has the ability to control minds, but convinces her to trust him, saying that he would never use his powers her and that his powers are verbal in nature, he has to command someone to do something.

After helping her friend Trish protect the residents of Magical NY, she travels to New Mexico in order to find her brother, Rick, who had gotten into trouble with SHIELD. While she is away, Kilgrave decides to kill her parents since he believes this will be good for her. His murder attempt ends with David Jones' death and puts Susan Jones in a coma. After Jessica returns to New York with her brother, she finds out about her parents and starts suspecting Kilgrave of doing it.

In order to repay SHIELD for letting her brother go, she has to track down Doc Ock, while doing so, she meets Luke Cage and the two become friends. Kilgrave confronts Jessica about avoiding him since New Mexico, and the confrontation ends with Kilgrave controlling Jessica to do whatever he says.

It is revealed that Kilgrave has been controlling Trish for awhile now to stay out of the way and tell Jessica good things about Kilgrave. But now that he has Jessica, he stops visiting Trish. Trish, now herself again, goes out looking for Jessica and meets Luke, who offers to help look for her. They find her, now herself again after Kilgrave left for the day. Turns out, Kilgrave is bored of his life and wants to end this saga with just killing Jessica and her friends. Jessica, Luke, and Trish fight back and Kilgrave seemingly takes his own life, framing Luke for it in the process. This was his plan.

Something to Defend
Jessica meets the vigilante hero Moon Knight and rescues the daughter of her childhood friend Miya. Luke then stands trial for the killing of Kilgrave and is found guilty due to their key witness, Ward Meechum, lying, and the otherwise excellent performance of the prosecution, Jeri Hogarth.
