Put Out to Pasture is a case featured in Criminal Case as the twelfth of the game. It is the final case set in the Jumble Hollow district of New Cresthill.
Plot[]
At the day of the debate, Evan and the player were already in the city hall waiting for its beginning; however, Deputy Nelson asked them to pick Ms. Boonyakiat up since the Mayor was also being sought. Benjamin knew (per Elizardo) that she was in a greenhouse, relaxing before the event. Nevertheless, when the duo arrived, they found Malee with the jaw practically destroyed.
Mayor Chris Brooks, U.S.S Second-in-Command, Elizardo Vogel and, Senior Detective, Mona Romanazzi were considered suspects. Back at the station, everyone was concerned about suspecting of Mona and things got worse when a crying Maxwell tried to prove her mom's innocence.
Charlotte and Rogelio decided to look after him while the investigation continued, worrying Evan of what Skipper could do in the case that Mona was the killer. Immigration officer, Fiona Tavera, and journalist, Allen O'Brian were also added to the suspects' list. Soon, they found out that Elizardo was going to debate against the Mayor, but Malee took his place and made him feel uncomfortable despite all of his effort, and that Chris criticized her idea of letting the immigrants live freely in the city ignoring the law and the President. At the end of the chapter, Evan and the player went back to the council chamber to talk with the Deputy Mayor, surprisingly, when they entered the room, Benjamin was trying to separate a fight between Mona and Fiona.
After taking Mona into custody because of starting the fight and hearing Fiona's victimization speech, the team continued to investigate Malee's murder, discovering that she was forced to continue being the leader of Under the Same Sky by the senior detective. Mona confessed and apologized about it, she thought that losing Ms. Boonyakiat was a huge risk with the debate day approaching, so she acted harsh with her and prompted her to continue, keeping their incident as a secret. In addition, Allen was making a sensationalist article where Malee was presented as an illegal immigrant that bought her papers working with a fugitive from Ireland's justice. Also, it was revealed that Fiona wanted to make peace with Malee, reaching to the point that she wanted to support her movement. After getting enough evidence, the team arrested Fiona Tavera for Malee Boonyakiat's murder.
She got disconcerted and admitted that the player had a nice sense of humor if they were pinning the crime to her; however, she confessed when Evan mentioned the expedient found in the previous investigation. Fiona was working with Illian and Liam falsifying papers of immigrants, until the day that she and the Mayor's daughter made a deal. Their original plan was that Fiona would gain money doing her business while Amaris would induce her father to ban the new wave of immigrants; when she was killed, Tavera manipulated Mayor Brooks and tried to get rid of the police department, starting by Mona. After losing Oxenford and Caulfield, she knew that the only way to run away was killing Malee and blaming Chris, so she arranged a false meeting in the greenhouse, where she brutally killed Ms. Boonyakiat and left everything for the Mayor to be arrested. Judge Fraire sentenced her to life imprisonment with no chance of parole.
In the aftermath, Detheroc Morgan asked the player for help finding his entry pass for the debate. When they found it, he apologized for the rude first impression, adding that it was better to be allies than enemies. As a proof that he was telling the truth, he left something for the police department in the greenhouse. On the one hand, Charlotte and the player restored Malee's kerchief and gave it to Elizardo as a symbol for the movement in the debate, since he would be replacing Ms. Boonyakiat. On the other hand, the duo found a first aid kit, which revealed that Amaris and Fiona were working with 'The Holy Spirit', who was responsible for 'The Hunt of Cocoons'. The profiler tried to convince Tavera to talk with Xavier's help, unfortunately, she only revealed that they should be worried about keeping their little spy alive. After the end of the debate, where both parties reached an agreement, they considered that 'The Holy Spirit' might be hidden in Bloom Prairie and that Maxwell might be one of their targets now, Chief Galdwey requested reinforcements in other districts related to nature and asked the teenager to avoid going to school for a while.
