A Dish Served Cold

A Dish Served Cold is the eighteenth fanmade case and the seventh in the Economic Center by SuccouringArmand.

Case Background
The victim was a food critic named Jonathan Crawford, who was found dead in the Chez Riveria restaurant with a sardonic grin on his face. The killer was Consuela Riveria.

Jonathan gave Consuela's mother, Maria, a horrible review for her restaurant. Consuela didn't want her mother's business to go bankrupt and blamed Jonathan for it. Consuela managed to persuade Jonathan to try the food out again. Before Jonathan arrived at the restaurant, Consuela used strychnine to poison Jonathan's plate and protected her mother's restaurant.

At the Court, Consuela entered a guilty plea just so that she can get a shortened sentence. The Judge sentenced Consuela to 20 years in prison with a chance of parole for 15 years.
