Billy Barber

Billy Barber is [[AndyBarber|Andy Barber]]’s imprisoned father in [[DefendingJacob|《捍卫雅各布》 / Defending Jacob]], discussed in 24.捍卫雅各布：相信你是我唯一的执念. The episode uses him to reveal the violent Barber family history that Andy has tried to bury by becoming a prosecutor, husband, and father.

Billy matters as both inherited-risk figure and possible hidden actor. Andy visits him for genetic-test cooperation, and later suspects that Billy may have arranged pressure on the alternative suspect Paz. The source keeps the suspicion consequential because it shows how family protection can become organized intimidation even when Andy refuses to know.
