In TimeSplitters 2, Jo-Beth was a rather small girl with glasses. She wears her hair in pigtails and is wearing a school girl uniform. She had no appearance in Story and was featured in one Arcade League and quite a few bot sets. Her same personality from this game is referenced in Timesplitters: Future Perfect, sneaking out of her parents house, fighting monsters.

Jo-Beth Casey's appearance in TimeSplitters Future Perfect
In Jo-Beth's return in TimeSplitters Future Perfect, her attire has become rather risque. She still wears her hair in pigtails, once again wears a plaid miniskirt and a shirt with "SLUT" written across her chest. She carries a backpack on her back with a cyan teddy bear attached to it. She meets Cortez as she attempts to sneak into a supposedly haunted mansion; he catches her off guard as she's climbing through a window and pulls her down. She then mistakes him for a zombie and kicks him in the groin, after which she takes a picture of him. Then she realizes her mistake and goes along with him into the mansion.

Jo-Beth Casey's artwork appearance in TimeSplitters 4
Jo-Beth Casey has appeared in some TimeSplitters 4 artwork, referencing Whore of Babylon featuring Jo-Beth's appearance mixed with a nuns, wielding a Chainsaw with the text Saw of Babylon. There is an old church behind her, probably the one she is a member of, with the text "Our lady of the mixed blessing" over the door. It is stylistically quite similar to the Mexican Mission.
Story
1994, Mansion Of Madness
- Main articles: Mansion Of Madness (Story) and What Lies Below
Jo-Beth, a girl from Connecticut, played a secondary role in the Mansion Of Madness mission. Originally, she was trying to join Donny's gang. To prove she was good enough, she was told to get pictures of the haunted mansion while rumors circulated about Zombies. Refusing to leave, she followed Sergeant Cortez into the mansion to investigate.
Cortez and Jo-Beth, after defeating Princess, ventured into the catacombs and laboratories beneath the mansion. Jo-Beth got separated from Cortez, and a number of Changelings tried to copy her form. After Cortez found Jo-Beth tied up, she continued to follow Cortez until they were separated a second time. Once again, Jo-Beth was stuck, leaving Cortez to fight off Princess once more. After Crow set off a timed bomb, they had little time to escape before the mansion fell.
Trivia
- Jo-Beth Casey is sisters with Mary-Beth Casey. Mary-Beth appears in 1965, Jo-Beth appears in 1994. The missions are 29 years apart, and judging by their in-game models, Jo-Beth in 1994 is younger than Mary-Beth is in 1965. There are easily over 30+ years between the two of them. It is possible that the Jo-Beth of TimeSplitters 2 is from 1965, while the Jo-Beth of TimeSplitters: Future Perfect is a descendant who was named after her.
- This is further backed up by the fact that the background color of her Timesplitters 2 portrait is green, which is the same as all of the other characters within the Atom Smasher timeline and is only 7 years apart from the Mansion's timeline.
- However, despite all of this, the creators have confirmed it is the same Jo-Beth in both games and that this time difference was just an overlook error on the developers part.
- This is further backed up by the fact that the background color of her Timesplitters 2 portrait is green, which is the same as all of the other characters within the Atom Smasher timeline and is only 7 years apart from the Mansion's timeline.
- Unlike other skirt-wearing characters in TimeSplitters 2 and Future Perfect, Jo-Beth's legs and underwear are fully rendered and do not end in shadow past the hemline.
- In TimeSplitters 2, she reuses her sister, Mary-Beth Casey's voice clips.
- Ben Newman confirmed that in Timesplitters: Future Perfect, there was an idea for alternate costumes for the characters. One of Jo-Beth's was supposed to be her School Girl uniform from TimeSplitters 2.
- In keeping with the series' dedication to spoofing other video games, Jo-Beth Casey's activities in Timesplitters: Future Perfect (obsessively photographing ghosts and other supernatural beings) demonstrate similarities to the young female protagonists of the Fatal Frame series.
- In Timesplitters: Future Perfect, she says "If mom finds out I snuck out I'll really be in trouble!", referencing her Timesplitters 2 gallery description.
- Both her and her sister Mary-Beth Casey feature school themed outfits. Mary-Beth wears a cheerleader uniform and Jo-Beth wears a school girl uniform.
