Barbara Bollman

Barbara Bollman is the main villainess from "Party's Over," episode 2.05 of Longmire.

She was played by Gabrielle Carteris.

Barbara Bollman is the mother of Justin Bollman, who was dating Tanya Dove, a teenage MMA fighter. Late one night, while Justin was at a party, Barbara (who was under the influence of hydrocodone) heard someone inside her home and grabbed a gun and pointed it at the intruder. She later fired and killed who she believed was a burglar, but she later saw that it was Tanya, who was in the bathroom looking to take Barbara's pills.

Realizing that she had killed her son's girlfriend, Barbara covered up the murder by placing a rug over Tanya's body and dumping the body in an alley, and later covered the bullet hole in the bathroom wall with spackle. Barbara's plan was to make it look like Tanya was murdered by drug dealers, and her villainous secret was kept hidden from Justin. After seeing Barbara's name on a list of hydrocodone buyers, Longmire went to the Bollman home and confronted both Barbara and Justin, regarding the latter stealing the former's pills, as well as Barbara's role in Tanya's death. Shortly after Longmire began fingering Justin in Tanya's murder, Barbara tearfully confessed to killing Tanya and hiding the truth from Justin. She stated that she thought Tanya was a burglar, and regarding the plan to frame drug dealers, the villainess justified it by stating that drugs killed Tanya. Barbara was arrested by Longmire, who reminded Barbara that if she had been more clearheaded, she wouldn't have shot Tanya.
