Bad Chemistry

Bad Chemistry is a case appearing in the Criminal Case: Justice Department series. It is the the fifty-first case in the overall series and the third case of the district Kings University.

Plot
The police continue on their investigation on the stolen shipment of Nebula technology in the Kings University. It was revealed by the university's dean, Gerald Rothman, that, sometimes, Nebula placed one or two operatives in the university in search of a worthy student to be offered a job application in the company. As they go on in finding the identity of these operatives, they were called in a murder investigation in the university's football oval. There, they find chemistry professor Simon Winthrop impaled to death with a javelin.

After the autopsy, Dr. Graham Fraser determined Simon's cause of death to be massive blood loss due to the javelin severing his vena cava. On the javelin's handle, Dr. Fraser found traces of oil used in making oat muesli, determining the killer ate muesli before committing the crime.

Eventually, the player and Lt. Eric Wayne gathered enough evidence to arrest renowned scientist Dr. Alexis Wright for Professor Winthrop's murder. After several attempts in denying her involvement, Dr. Wright admitted that she killed Professor Winthrop because he was discredited of the theory he came up with. Dr. Wright had been out of the spotlight of fame in the scientific research field, when she encountered Winthrop in a science convention, Winthrop shared his papers regarding the theory as he admired Dr. Wright's research. Dr. Wright used this as an opportunity to write up a new book that would put her under the spotlight again. However, when Winthrop found out about the new book Dr. Wright was writing, Winthrop demanded to be credited about his research. But this would risk Dr. Wright's fame, so she concluded in murdering him by luring him into the football field and attacked him with a javelin. In Judge Chandler's court, Dr. Wright faced trial and was given a fitting thirty year prison sentence for her heartless actions.
