Origin Sasha Bordeaux is a Secret Service agent turned private contractor who is hired as head of
Bruce Wayne's personal security at the insistence of
WayneCorp's second-in-command,
Lucius Fox, against Wayne's wishes. Wayne at first tries to avoid her, but she keeps on doing her job. She eventually becomes suspicious of his constant late-night disappearances, does some searching, and is shocked to find that Bruce Wayne is secretly Batman. After weeks of hard work, she becomes fit enough to go out with him on patrol, though he still treats her as a stranger. During this time, she falls in love with him, even though he is dating other women.
Framed One night while Batman and Bordeaux are out on patrol,
David Cain lures Wayne's ex-girlfriend
Vesper Fairchild to Wayne Manor and kills her, framing Wayne in the process. Both Wayne and Bordeaux are charged with murder, and Bordeaux refuses to exonerate herself by giving up Wayne's secret despite the fact that they were patrolling separate areas at the time of the murder and she cannot be sure of Wayne's innocence. They are both arraigned and held without bail while awaiting trial. After a while, Batman escapes to leave his alter ego behind, leaving Bordeaux inside
Blackgate Penitentiary. Although Bordeaux is briefly offered her freedom if she testifies against Wayne - even contemplating taking the deal after Wayne abandons her - a meeting with
Alfred Pennyworth leaves her resolved to reject the offer. Alfred helps her realize that Wayne truly valued her work, rather than using her without any thought for herself, as otherwise he would never have allowed her to accompany him as Batman. Batman eventually confronts those who framed him, and Wayne and Bordeaux are cleared of all charges. Mister Terrific and
Doctor Mid-Nite keep Bordeaux alive on life support until she is revived.
DC Rebirth A new interpretation of Bordeaux debuts in
