Fox River Killer Scenarios

Scenario 1 Disclaimer: the victim written about is my friend who wanted to be the subject of a scenario. I’m not that awful of a person to write of her murder without her knowledge. “Her math proofs are just too good! She’s never wrong!” Millard Newton, the long-lost descendant of Sir Isaac Newton, exclaimed as he planned her demise. “It is possible that one day my nemesis Celine will surpass the influence and superiority of great grandpa Isaac!” His plan? Send her an invitation to a fake prestigious math conference in the most treacherous place outside of the continental United States – Alaska. His intent? Murder. The moment Celine arrived at the conference, Millard swept her away with exciting news of a discovery of primitive math found
My estimated time of death for the first body is approximately 4-5 days before discovery. Not only is the body in the advanced stage of decomposition, but the fly pupae in the 3rd instar wandering stage indicate that the victim died about a week prior (A). This killer has access to decent power tools, concluded by the cleanliness of the cut of the foot. The polished look and lack of visible striations are characteristics of a circular power saw (C). Although it may seem like the killer also dismembered the left arm (who knows, maybe their trying out a new calling card), however, since the scapula is still attached, the arm was most likely removed by carnivores (B). The second body seems to be a little “fresher” than the first. Since the corpse is still has a bloated, green abdomen, and has maggot activity in the eye sockets, I am lead to believe that it is in the early stage of decomposition, with the PMI to be about 2-4 days (D, E). Like the first body, this victim also shows evidence of carnivore activity, seen in the exposure of the facial skeleton and furrows on the maxillae (E). This victim was also of African descent per both rectangular orbits and alveolar prognathism
