Case 5-3 - Turnabout Academy

I'm Llarian, and I'm FINE!!

Klavier offers to help recover the erased audio from the forged tape. In court, we find that Robin and Hugh have recanted their confessions. Blackquill is a cool character. I'm hoping we get to learn more about him in the future.

Hugh takes the stand, and talks about Junie moving the high jump mat in order to move Prof. Courte's body. This was super annoying to figure out - normally we get way more floorplans, so when Hugh said where he was, I had no way to figure it out. I presented the Mock Trial Script because it mentions you can see the whole quad from the Archery Club. Turns out, with a little help, it was the stage set up photos.

Hugh brushes this objection off easily by saying he wa son the same side of the barrier as Junie. This isn't quite true, as we ID him as the crane operator. Blackquill lays it all out - Hugh is 25 years old, he took a 7 year break from school. Oh, and the neckband we can see him wearing in the crane operator photo is one of a kind and handmade, not bought. Hugh is accused of operating the crane to move the body, but he reveals it's an activity that requires 2 hands, and as one of his required surgery, it relieves him of all suspicion.

Everything still seems to point to Junie. However, we recall something else goes between the art room and the stage! The wire for the hanging banners! We analyze the blood on the pottery in the art room, it's Hugh's. Myriam had spring-loaded a knife in with her script to prevent anyone but Prof. Courte from opening it without being injured. It caught Hugh peeking at the script and left him literally red-handed.

See you tomorrow!
