Inspector
Lewis Endeavour, help by the Crime Room detectives, has made
an arrest below you can read his reasoning and see why he
picked the suspect he did...
Are
you sure you want to know who did it? Have your little grey
cells exhausted all the avenues of enquiry?
If
not then stop now and examine the evidence further聟.
Are
you ready?
Very
well, we will continue.
So
they all seem like a suspicious lot don't they?
The
village simpleton Carl Bartlett. He was a bit of a loose cannon
wasn't he? Rejected by his father, confused over his own identity
but very fond of Marilyn - too fond to murder her.
Guy.
The smarmy cad with everything to lose - too much too lose.
He had got Marilyn pregnant but we can't be totally sure he
knew he had, and his alibi is watertight. We even have CCTV
footage showing him to be where he said he was.
Gemma.
Jealous and pathetic but there is nothing to suggest she actually
did the crime.
The
Professor. Well, he played a small part, but unwittingly.
When he said that the blackmail must stop someone took that
a little too literally聟
Rebecca
claims that she was in the library until late, hoping this
would lead us to believe she was there at the time the murder
was committed. But we see that she was in the off-licence
just before the murder took place, buying wine.
She
was a chemist and could have acquired the drug that would
put her victim to sleep so she need not try to over-power
her.
There
was no sign of forced entry to the room because she had a
key and finally after the murder had taken place she called
the Professor.
We
know she was the only one other than the deceased to use the
phone because of the fingerprints we found. So it must have
been her that made a call to her lover from the phone in the
room.
Panicking
she tried to frame the simple groundsman Carl, fabricating
some story about him visiting Marilyn's room.
The
murderer was Rebecca.
