Manheim joined the present as Lieutenant Kate Dixon within the Season 21 premiere, The Proper Factor, although she had portrayed smaller roles in seasons 1, 3, and 4. Dixon is at the moment the commanding officer of the Manhattan North Murder Squad’s twenty seventh Precinct.
Earlier, an announcement was issued to Deadline on Manheim’s imminent departure.
