Detective Lillian "Lilly" Rush is a fictional character in the CBS crime drama ''Cold Case'', portrayed by Kathryn Morris. She was known as the only female homicide detective in Philadelphia, until the later arrival of Lennie Desalle, then Josie Sutton, and finally Kat Miller. She specialized in working cold cases alongside her partner, Scotty Valens. According to Lilly, "People shouldn't be forgotten, even if they're my kind of people. Maybe, they don't have a lot of money, they don't have lawyers, but they matter." ==Character Biography== Lilly was raised on welfare by an alcoholic mother, Ellen Rush, who often neglected her. Her father, Paul Cooper, left the family when Lilly was six. Lilly was left to fend for herself and care for her younger sister, Christina Rush. The family lived in Kensington, a rough part of Philadelphia. At the age of ten, Lilly had been sent out late at night by her mother to buy alcohol, and a man brutally attacked and robbed her. Suffering a broken jaw, among other injuries, young Lilly was nursed by Ray Williams. The detective that apprehended the man that attacked Lilly was Lt. John Stillman. As a child Lilly would have nightmares so her mother would read to her The Velveteen Rabbit. When she was a young adult Lilly almost married Ray Williams, but Ray couldn't bring himself to get off of his motorbike to go into the courthouse after having ridden to Knoxville. Lilly later confides to her boyfriend Joseph Shaw that she was once engaged to Ray, but he was not the "settling down" type. Lt Stillman became a mentor and father figure after capturing her attacker when she was a child. After joining the police force, Stillman followed her career and chose her for Homicide when she passed her detective exam. ("The Long Blue Line" / "Into the Blue") Shortly after Lilly's change from on-the-line jobs to cold cases, her partner, Chris Lassing, transfers out because of his diabetic condition, leading to Scotty being promoted to Homicide and becoming Lilly's partner. She thinks rationally and has a very strong, independent personality, but at the same time she also has the necessary compassion to deal appropriately with victims and their families. While cold and unyielding with criminals and suspects, she can be devoted to a fault in her concern for the suffered close ones of the victims. In the last episode of the first season ("Lovers Lane Lilly has a contentious relationship with her sister. At the end of season seven, after rescuing her sister ("Shattered"), Lilly discovers that she's now an aunt to Christina's baby daughter. Lilly solves the most difficult cases in order to seek the truth after all these years in hopes of giving the victim's family and the victims themselves, justice. She often works long hours on these cases. Because of this, her relationships with men are relatively shaky and her family can best be described as dysfunctional. Cell number: 555-0198 (season 1) She hates musicals Pets: 2 cats, Olivia and Tripod. Olivia only has 1 eye and Tripod only has 3 legs.
