Nathan Pandit

Nathan Pandit (1981–2018), first appearing as a main character—and the Chief Medical Examiner (Coroner) of the Grimsborough Police Department—in Season 1 of Criminal Case, was the victim in Snake in the Grass (Case #1 of The Conspiracy).

Profile
At 37 years of age, Nathan had graying medium black hair, and dark gray eyes concealed behind his red glasses. He sported a thick mustache and a little beard on the chin.

During his days in the police force, Nathan would wear a light blue lab hat on top of his head, along with a blue V-neck T-shirt underneath a white lab coat, which had a logo on the left side that read "Coroner" under it.

Events of Criminal Case
In The Devil's Playground, Grace agreed to dress as an Amish woman to tend for Isaac Hersberger, an 8-year-old Amish witness to the crime, in order to avoid offending the Amish population in the process. In Grace's absence from the Forensics Laboratory, Nathan replaced her for the whole case.

In the Additional Investigation of Spring Break Massacre, Nathan accompanied the team when they went to meet Michael Fletcher in the Biology Amphitheater to hand Brutus (Michael's piranha) back to him.

In the Additional Investigation of Troubled Waters, Nathan became excited to meet Archibald Ashworth since he had heard a lot about Archibald, who seemed very eccentric and reminded Nathan of his "grumpy old" grandfather. The player accepted Nathan's request and they both then went to meet Archibald in his house.

At the climax of There Will Be Blood, Cathy King and the Grimsborough PD threw a farewell party for the player after the player accepted a promotion into the Pacific Bay Police Department. Nathan did not hesitate to thank the player for making him realize that his job "wasn't just about dead bodies, but about living people, too."

Murder details
Nathan was found dead by the police at the zoo. Upon autopsy, it was discovered that the killer hit the Nathan's head with a snake-wrangling stick to make him unconscious and tied him up in case if he wake up, he was killed by an Eastern coral snake biting him several times, paralysing his muscles and followed by a fatal heart attack. This obviously meant that the killer is a good snake handler because the reptile was forced to attack Nathan.

Killer and motives
Nathan was killed by Kit Partridge

The killer turned out to be his own son Mikhail Levin.

Kit was angry when Nathan refused to cover up a crime (Drug Dealing) Kit wanted help his son Zachery, but he begged and Nathan still refused,  He was never able to forgive Nathan for put his son in prison  he planned to murder Nathan after a decade he knew he will be in early, and when Nathan tending the giraffes, he ran in terrarium to stole the rare shark he can found, and it was the Eastern coral snake, and then he hit Nathan with snake-wrangling stick, tied him up and forcing the snake bite him several times.

- He pleading he was guilty.

Judge Powell sentenced him to 27 years in prison for asking a officer to cover drug dealing and murdering officer because he refused.

Analyses
As the (now-former) Chief Medical Examiner (Coroner) of the Grimsborough Police Department, Nathan had the responsibility of carefully examining and analyzing each murdered corpse, and to inform the team of such results after a certain amount of time or a speed-up process using Criminal Case Cash. His task-wait rates varied depending on the difficulty of the task, but they would all cost 1 Criminal Case Cash per 30 minutes. It should be noted that he also conducted forensic analyses whenever Grace was unavailable.
