Case Background
The victim was Roland Vane, the Opera director, who was eaten by a huge snake, known as a giant boa. The killer was Annabel Stewart, an understudy at the Opera. Annabel thought Roland didn't care about her. She thought that Roland was going to give his wife all the credits and he will not let her do anything. But in fact, Roland was going to give her the star of the Opera. Annabel had no patience, so she decided to kill him.

Annabel was sentenced to 20 years in jail with a chance for parole in 17 years for the murder of Roland Vane, the Opera director.
