After the Project caught Daniel/Leo after the incident and erased his memory, they had him committed to Dixmor, where Doctor Deborah had been working to study the effects of the implant and repair the damage, without success.
During a teraphy session, Daniel (under control of Leo) murdered Doctor Deborah after she asked the reason why Daniel's wife had to be killed. In later sessions, Laura Whyte replaced Deborah.
Circa 2007[]
After the murder of Doctor Pickman in the hands of Daniel (under Leo's control) for refusing to remove the Pickman Bridge implant off his head, Leo informed Daniel about one last person tied to the Pickman Bridge test who might help him remember his past - Laura Whyte. In reality, Leo had the intentions of "persuading" her into removing the Pickman Bridge so he can be free of Daniel's mind.
While in search of Dr. Whyte at The Project-run TV-MK Studios, Whyte sends a team of armed Bloodhound mercenaries and bounty hunters after Daniel in a last effort to stop Leo's bloody rampage.
In the middle of the Bloodhound hunting across the film sets, Dr. Whyte manages to ambush and incapacitate Daniel (and Leo) by sedating him with a syringe. Shortly after, Daniel wakes up in a room with Whyte, who reveals the truth to him. Whyte explains that Leo is dangerously unstable, and has been working against Daniel from the very beginning in order to take over his mind.
Whyte reveals that, after the Pickman Bridge implant malfunctioned, Leo's personality asserted itself, suppressing Daniel's own, and he went on a rampage across the city, murdering police officers and members of the Project, destroying the Project's records of Daniel and himself, and finally making his way to Daniel's household and killing his wife. Upon learning the truth, Daniel determines that he must destroy Leo once and for all. He enters a deep hypnotic state and faces off against Leo within the confines of his own mind. He is finally able to let go of the guilt he feels over his wife's death, allowing him to "kill" Leo and assert control.
After helping Daniel destroy his implanted personality, Whyte erases Daniel's memories once again, providing him a new identity and allowing him to start a new life somewhere else as David Joiner.

Dr. Whyte has appeared in two known sessions with the main protagonists in Manhunt 2, a session with Leo and a session with Daniel.

Transcript
Tape zero plays, sound decibel meters can be heard.
Dr. Whyte:
Dixmor—
Dr. Whyte:
...session 4-2—
Tapes playing sounds.
Dr. Whyte:
Dixmor Studies, we are— we are resuming with session 4-26. Named Leo Kasper. Test Case 412567.
Leo Kasper:
[chuckles]
Dr. Whyte:
Leo. Can you hear me? Leo?
Second tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
Leo, can you hear me?
Leo:
Yeah. And I can see you too.
Dr. Whyte:
We're going to continue with—
Leo:
You're hotter than the last one. Whatever happened to good old Dr. Deborah, anyway?
Dr. Whyte:
I'll be asking the questions, Leo.
Leo:
Oh that's right. I killed the bitch.
Third tape plays.
Leo:
Do you have a cigarette?
Dr. Whyte:
You know I don't.
Leo:
Yeah. She didn't have any either.
Dr. Whyte:
Leo, why did you kill—
Leo:
Come to think of it, I don't even know if I smoke. These drugs that you puppets pump me with, I don't know Cain from Abel. Can we stop with the drugs here? I like to party and all, but just say fucking no.
Dr. Whyte:
So you remember attacking Dr. Deborah. Do you remember killing those other people before you were caught? Before you were sent here?
Leo:
The people you wanted me to kill, or the people I felt should go?
Fourth tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
I read your dossier — I'm fully aware of your expertise in assassination. That was your job and you did it exceptionally. But your targets were selected by the government as imminent dangers. They were evil men, terrorists. You must realize that. But to turn on your own employers, the people who trained you—
Leo:
Oh, we're the good guys? Right, I forgot. We're the good clandestine government agency that slithers its way in every facet of American life, right, okay, got it.. You see, good and evil are for those wage slaves out there that you control. But no one controls me.
Fifth tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
So the killing of the Project scientist, the assassination of the Project official at the Plaza, the burning of the files, these were acts of vengeful spite. But Leo, why on earth would you kill—
Leo:
Don't you say one more fucking word. Dr. Deborah finished that question, she wasn't alive to hear the answer. Look at me like that one more time and I will rip your face off, bitch.
Sixth tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
You don't scare me, Leo. In fact, you look pretty pathetic.
Leo:
chuckles* I feel fucking pathetic. These drugs dull my senses, these fucking chains hurt like hell. These fucking walls are all I ever see. I need to be free, I need to get out of here. I'm gonna be free.
Dr. Whyte:
To satisfy more homicidal urges?
The session shows a scene to Bees' Honey Pot, several executions, and the murder of Mrs. Lamb in her home.
Leo:
I don't believe this shit.
Grunts and pain can be heard off-screen.
Seventh tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
Leo, why—
Leo:
Dogs bark, babe. Snakes crawl. Leo kills. This is a surprise to you? You fuckers created me. My head is filled with combat training, ways of escape, stealth tactics.
I wanna think about puppy dogs and fucking football, but all I see are six things that can be used to kill you right now.
Dr. Whyte:
Six? Is that all?
Leo:
Sorry, seven.
Leo:
I can pierce your eardrum with the temple of your glasses, rip the pin off your earrings and shove it in your systemic artery, wrap that ID pass around your neck and choke the life out of you, yank your high heels off and gouge out your eyes, pierce your cephalic vein with that fucking pen your cheap dad bought you for graduation and inject ink in your bloodstream, or... ram that clipboard into your septum and fuck your brain with your nose bone.
Dr. Whyte:
That's only six, Leo.
Leo:
I can’t mention number seven, not in front of you.
Dr. Whyte:
Before the training, Leo.
Eighth tape plays
Dr. Whyte:
What can you tell me about your life before the training?
Leo:
I don't have much time for the past.
Ninth tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
Well, is there any memory you can share? A first kiss, a special vacation.
Leo:
The only thing that matters is the future. The future is where I'm on the outside, the future is where I don't have to take orders from anyone.
10th tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
How does Daniel Lamb fit into your future, Leo?
Leo chuckles.
Leo:
Danny is the only one in here that got fucked harder than me. I showed him that he doesn't have to be scared, that he can be a man. I'm here whenever he needs me.
11th tape plays.
Dr. Whyte chuckles.
Dr. Whyte:
Ah. He needs you or do you need him?
Leo:
I think we've come to the end of our little session, babe.
Dr. Whyte:
I don't believe we have.
Leo:
Hey, let me ask you a question now, okay? When I broke these chains and strangled the life out of Dr. Deborah, did they reinforce these chains so it couldn't happen again? Or did they just tell you they were reinforced? 'Cause I feel they didn't.
Dr. Whyte:
Ah, hang on.
Switching pages, chains breaking can be heard.
Dr. Whyte:
Stop it, Leo. Sit down.
Leo:
You better call the security right now. 'Cause I see another fucking dead doctor in my future.
Gunshots, Leo's menacing laughs can be heard.
Dr. Whyte:
Get back! Get back! Security! Security! Open the door! Open the door!
Leo:
You— I'LL SHOW YOU FUCKERS!! COME HERE!!
Daniel Session

You're in a safe place, Danny. A place where we can help you.
Daniel:
Hm.

Daniel:
Thank you. Who are you?

Dr. Whyte:
Dr. Deborah, yes. Dr. Deborah has to take a leave mass, I'll be continuing her progress.
Second tape plays.
Daniel:
Oh, I—I—I'm afraid I can't bring you up to speed. I, uh... I don't remember much.
Dr. Whyte:
That's okay, Danny. As one of the America's leaders and neuroscientists you had to remember a lot. It's okay to get a little confused.
Daniel sighs.
Daniel:
I, uh... I—I think I have extreme anterograde amnesia. With bursts of dissociative fugue states due to trauma probably memory distrust.
Dr. Whyte:
That's one way to put it, yes. Impressive, Danny.
Third tape plays.
Daniel:
Ah, I've been taking notes in my... head. I've been in here a long time, but as soon I grasp something, it slips right back out. Uh... I do recognize that perfume, though.
Dr. Whyte:
You were the only one that liked it.
Daniel goes to a flashback.
Dr. Whyte:
Daniel, you can wake up now, Daniel.
Daniel:
How do we fix this?
Flashback ends.
Daniel:
Laura! Oh my God, Laura Whyte! I worked with you!
Dr. Whyte:
The drug I injected into you is taking effect.
Daniel:
Whyte? Why am I restrained? What's going on? Tell me!
Dr. Whyte:
You have only a few minutes of clear, cognitive processing before your amnesia returns. And I need to ask you a question.
Daniel:
Hm... No, this is crazy! Where's Pickman? Where's Michael? I wanna see with Michael!
Fourth tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
Michael is dead. Now listen carefully.
Daniel:
Wait, no... wait. He is dead. Oh my God. Oh... You shot me with Cortexa. I—I invent the god damn thing and you stick it in me.
Fifth tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
Danny, it takes a week for your mind to recover from this drug. Time is precious. Now, what do you remember about Michael's death?
Daniel:
It was uh... a setup. I think he was my friend but he betrayed me. the... the Project was going to kill us!
Dr. Whyte:
Danny, you were the top scientist to the Project. Why would they kill you?
My whole... life was dedicated to the Project. I thought I was appreciated. I thought I was doing the right thing but it all funnels down to defense stuff, weapons, defending America from. GOD KNOWS FUCKING WHAT!! I was creating killing machines, my family deteriorated before my very eyes!
Dr. Whyte:
Danny, please take a deep breath.
Daniel:
Or what?! I—fucking—God! I'm sorry... I just want to see my family again. Please...
Eighth tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
I'm afraid some memories the drug cannot bring back.
Daniel:
What do you mean? What am I forgetting? Please, I want to know, tell me! Please Linzie, I beg you. (stutters) No... Oh my God, no. I'm forgetting your name. Please! Inject me with more Cortexa. I don't remember, please!
Dr. Whyte:
We will, Danny, we will. Next week, I'm sorry.
Daniel:
No, NOW!! Just— I'm so sick forgetting...
Ninth tape plays.
Dr. Whyte:
We will help you, Daniel. I will help you, no matter what.
Daniel:
Oh, help me with what? Where am I?
Dr. Whyte:
You're in a safe place, Daniel. A place where we can help you.
Laura Whyte's head model was used as the base to create Judy Sender's head model, as evidenced by textures.[1][2]
This is further reinforced in the Prototype Version 0.01, where Whyte's cutscene model is used as a placeholder for Judy's cutscene model during Bees' Honey Pot.[3]
After the events of awakening, Laura wrote with heavy emphasis that Daniel and Leo must be tracked. [4][5]
