Biography
Pre-Series
Abby was born in New Orleans, Louisiana.
She was later given up for adoption by her birth parents and taken in by an unnamed family, raising her as their own along with their birth son Luca Sciuto with Abby inheriting their surname.
Her foster parents were deaf with young Abby subsequently learning American Sign Language to communicate with them.
During her youth, Abby moved and got a chance to experience most of the southern United States. At the age of ten, she learnt how to drive a manual transmission.
Upon finishing high school, she went to college, graduating with full honors from Louisiana State University with a triple major in Sociology, Criminology, and psychology.
She had earned her Master's degree from Georgia State University in Criminology and Forensic Science.
A while after, Abby joined Naval Criminal Investigative Service.
JAG Season 8
Abby in the JAG Season 8/NCIS backdoor pilot episode, "Ice Queen".
Abby made her debut appearance in the JAG Season 8/NCIS backdoor pilot episode, Ice Queen (episode) where she was seen in the computer area of her lab, drinking her fourth cup of Caf-Pow while presumably watching a group of fellow scientists conduct a test in the next room when NCIS Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo Junior arrived into the lab, having brought a sample of DNA he'd gotten from the bridge.
Upon finishing her Caf-Pow, Abby headed to the main area of her lab to begin processing the evidence.
Once she'd slipped on her official NCIS lab coat, she produced some gloves and began working while discussing the fact she'd chosen to do a bit of decorating in order to brighten up her lab a bit with the two paintings she had chosen, the first one being of a shotgun-shattered backbone and the second a Duodenum with a lye chaser" or in Abby's own words, "The Sad End of A Drano Drinker".
When Tony informed she needed to get out more, Abby wondered if that was an invite.
A few hours later, with Gibbs, Tony and Viv in the lab, Abby told them of her findings and revealed that the DNA sample or blood Tony had given her earlier was AB.
She then told the name of a bar: Berzinger's and informed them of the analysis she had conducted which had been examining Lieutenant Singer's stomach contentions with the victim's last meal being two hours before her death which had consisted of peanuts, preztels and crackers or a bar mix.
She also informed them of the phone number as well as the airline ticket she had managed to retrieve.
When Lieutenant Singer's vehicle, a Golf was found and brought into the NCIS Evidence Garage, Abby began dusting the inside of the car for fingerprints while noting it would take twelve hours for the match to occurr but when Tony offered her a dinner at Cafe Atlantico if she got a match in two hours, Abby agreed to do so.
Eventually, Abby arrived into Observation while Gibbs was busy interrogating Navy Commander Harmon Rabb and informed Tony and fellow NCIS Special Agent Vivian Blackadder that Harm's fingerprints were all over Singer's car.
