A physics major at Harvard University, Sidle previously worked for the San Francisco coroner and crime lab and replace Holly Gribbs after helping investigate her death. She is completely devoted to her job and will go to almost any lengths to make sure justice is served, for both the victims and the criminals. Sara's alcoholic father used to beat her and her mother Laura, until one day Laura snapped and stabbed him to death; as a result Sara has difficulties with dealing with abuse cases against women and children in her job. Following her father's death and her mother's subsequent institutionalization, she was placed into foster care. Sara generally seems jaded, calloused and unhappy, but also wants to be recognized for her work. She dresses very conservative but her views are extremely liberal. She has a romantic relationship with co-worker Gil Grissom, which came out to the rest of the lab when she was kidnapped at the end of season seven. She accepts Grissom's marriage proposal in the season 8 episode "The Case of the Cross-Dressing Carp". As of October 16th, 2007, Jorja Fox announced that she has quit CSI: to pursue other roles. Her last episode is set to air in November 2007.
