Joe Stern was the manager of a Mini-Market and a prime suspect in two cases and the killer in one of them (Burned to the Bone).



Profile
Joe is a 6 feet tall man with brown hair and black eyes. He wears a bandage and has a missing tooth.

In Burned to the Bone, Joe looked the same minus the bandage. It is known that Joe smokes, has dandruff, and wears sports shoes.

Role in Case(s)
In Corpse in a Garden, Joe was the manager of the mini-market where Dennis Brown bought a flammable liquid bottle and a saw to kill Ned Dillard, and also a bandage. When the team saw this invoice, they deduced the killer wore a bandage as they'd bought one along with the murder weapon. In the shelves of his market, the team found a surveillance camera which provides information about the killer.

He returns in Burned to the Bone, where he is convicted of killing the Viper member Chad Whickman by burning him alive with a gasoline can. The team investigate in his market again where they find a job application the victim had sent him, and a CCTV footage which finally lets the team arrest him.
