In Reacher season 3, Dominique Kohl is introduced in episode 4, appearing in flashbacks that reveal her backstory with Jack Reacher. She was a US Army Sergeant First Class in the Military Police and known for her intelligence, determination, and strong investigative skills. Reacher served as her mentor, guiding her through a case that ultimately led to her tragic fate.

However, when she attempted to arrest Quinn, things took a horrific turn. Quinn killed her fellow officer, Lieutenant Anthony Frasconi, and then took Kohl hostage. She was brutally tortured before being murdered. Her death deeply affected Reacher, fueling his determination for revenge.

Years later, when Reacher crosses paths with Quinn again, his mission is as much about justice as it is about avenging his former partner.

Her tragic fate serves as the emotional core of Reacher season 3, making her one of the most significant characters in the series.
