Willa Conden

Willa Conden is a villainess from "Live to Regret," episode 7.06 of Without a Trace.

She was played by Melissa Marsala.

Willa Conden is a friend and co-worker of bank manager Erin MacNeil, who stole $100,000 from the bank. Erin's plan was to the use the money for her biological son, only to later decide to lend it her former lover, Nathan York, after learning of her son's tragic passing. After the plans fell through, Erin approached Willa to help her transfer the money back to the bank, only for Willa to refuse, stating that such a transaction would draw red flags and that Erin would be caught.

In actuality, Willa had known about Erin's thefts and began piggybacking on them, stealing money for herself and placing them in her own separate account. The villainess' words of warning to Erin were out of concern for herself rather than her friend, as an investigation would most likely reveal Willa's embezzlement. After Erin left, the evil Willa phoned her boyfriend, Robbie, leading to Robbie abducting Erin to protect his villainous lover.

However, Vivian Johnson's investigation led to Willa's fingerprints being found on the computer she used to steal the money, and during her interrogation, Willa confessed to the embezzlement, while stating that the kidnapping was entirely Robbie's idea. Willa later helped police rescue Erin and capture Robbie; after which she was arrested herself for her greedy actions and her involvement in Erin's abduction.
