Changes: Culture Shock

Revision as of 15:58, 18 July 2018

"Sentenced To Death" is a case appearing in Criminal Case: Justice Department. It is the fifth case in Sycamore Grove and the forty-seventh overall.

Plot

Continuing from the previous case’s additional investigation. Elliot Rothman received a call from Gavin Van Ness regarding secret dealings between Van Ness Finances and the House Of Rothman companies. Gavin instructed the police to meet him in his private estate. Upon arriving, they discovered Gavin’s dead body sprawled in his estate’s front lawn, with a gaping hole in his chest.

According to the autopsy results, Dr. Graham Fraser concluded that Gavin’s cause of death was a shotgun blast to the chest, obliterating his heart. However, Gavin was actually shot from a high ground, as indicated by the post-mortem broken bones. The shotgun blast’s strength is so strong that it caused Gavin to topple over the balcony and fall in to his front lawn. With the distance and force calculated, Dr. Fraser and weapons expert Travis Nash indicated that the killer is a marksman.

In the denouement, the killer was unmasked to be Janet Van Ness, the victim’s wife. At first, Janet denied the accusations held against her by the police. However, after presenting the evidence, Janet broke down to confess. She stated that she overheard Gavin talking to the phone to the police, saying that he wanted to escape and start a new life. Janet leapt to the conclusion that Gavin wanted to leave everything, especially her. Afraid that she would lose everything due to the prenup agreement Jarvis assigned, Janet grabbed the shotgun from its case and shot her husband without giving him a chance to explain. Janet was then shipped to Judge Chandler’s court, where she pleaded guilty and the judge giving her a thirty-year jail sentence.
