| abstract | - Jenna's early life was explored occasionally in the series. It was known that her mother was violently assaulted by assaulted by a squad of Federation troopers sometime prior to meeting Blake. The result of the assault was ultimately unknown, but since Blake saw dead relatives at the same time Jenna was reliving the incident it could be inferred that the result was terminal for her parent. Just prior to her arrest, she was an experienced smuggler, or as she would later euphemistically say a "free trader". In course of her "trading" she worked with revolutionaries (such as Avalon) and space pirates (the Amagons) alike. Just before her arrest she was in discussions with Largo, an up-and-comming member of the Terra Nostra, to haul a cargo between Jupiter's moon Callisto and Earth. She discovered that the cargo was Shadow, a highly illicit and potent narcotic. Personally opposed to the use of (at least) that particular drug, she turned him down. Immediately afterwards she was arrested. It was likely this arrest that lead to her placement in the holding cell to Cygnus Alpha.
