Marie Bordeaux

Marie Bordeaux was the killer of her brother, Clifford Grady in Cloudy with a Chance of Murder (Case #75, or Case #19 of Pacific Bay).

Role in Case(s)
Marie was found guilty of grand homicide after the killer's profile incriminated her as the one who committed the transgression.

Marie lost her only daughter Colette weeks prior to the events of this case but Amy countered that murder was not a proper way to cope and informed her that evidence incriminated her to be the killer of Clifford, prompting Amy to suggest Marie to feel guilt for the murder she committed. To Marie, Clifford was nothing but a heartbreaker and by offing Clifford, those who grieved because of Clifford's past transgressions can finally move on. Due to Clifford's faults, Marie disowned Clifford as a brother because as an uncle entrusted to protect Colette at all costs, Clifford did nothing to protect Colette from the likes of Hurricane Yves.

Judge Dante stated that Marie killed Clifford to avenge her daughter, but not without notating that Clifford was her brother, but in her defense Marie told Judge Dante she lost Colette because of Clifford as if Colette was still alive, she would be observing her tenth birthday as of Marie's hearing. Marie then told Judge Dante that the moment Colette was killed by Hurricane Yves, she invited Clifford to attend Colette's funeral to apologize for the transgressions he done, but instead Clifford ignored Marie's invitation, so in response to Clifford's ignorance, Marie grabbed a weed whacker from Clifford's backyard, sliced Clifford's neck with it, and shoved Clifford to bleed to death whilst sitting in a red couch at one of Hurricane Yves's devastation areas. Although Clifford's negligence caused a lot of people to lose everything during the devastation of Hurricane Yves, the court decided that a 10-year jail sentence (with parole in 5 years) was mandatory for Marie.

Trivia
