DNA At The Scene and
Karyotype Analysis
 What Was Found At The Scene

Crime Scene 1 Crime Scene 2

 Matching DNA

Nancy Normal, Crime Scene 2 Carlton Comet, Crime Scene 1

DNA Fingerprinting
DNA Fingerprinting Results

● CS1 was linked to CC

● CS2 was linked to NN
Due To The Presented
Evidence, The Murderer
is Nancy Normal
How We Came To The Conclusion

● The fingerprint found on the scene matched

● The pen used for the note and the one owned (partly) by NN are

the same

● NN is linked to be at Crime Scene 2/knife by the type of blood

found, DNA fingerprinting, and by karyotype type

● NN might have Huntington's Disease or Marfan's Syndrome

● Motives linked to her

Motives
First Things First

● We believe that CC is Thomas Sandstone

○ Both have many kids
○ Both have many partners
○ CC just got out of jail
○ Both have connections to the suspects.
Motive #1

● NN is in love with FF
● FF’s mother and sister were killed by TS
● As a way to win his adoration, NN killed TS
Motive #2

● NN’s cousin Nadia was the daughter of TS and

her aunt Nina
● Nadia was kidnapped and murdered
○ Nina went insane as a result
● NN could potentially blame TS for not doing
enough to stop Nina’ insanity or stop Nadia from
being kidnapped
In Addition

● NN might have Huntington's Disease

○ Causes emotional problems and can result in
a loss of cognitive skills
● NN might also have Marfan’s Syndrome
○ Possible frustration with the disease could
have cause this acting out
Charges

We affirm that NN should be charged with Murder

of the First Degree, as the motives and note show
that this event was planned in advance.
