Harriet Davis

Harriet Davis was the killer of Joe Stanford in Open Wounds (Case #76, or Case #20 of Pacific Bay).

Role in Case(s)
Harriet was found guilty after the attributes the killer held incriminated her as the killer.

Harriet abhors violence but when Frank Knight had to go through the trouble of telling her about the mint julep residue she stained on the cannonball, she admitted to grand homicide. Harriet didn't like the idea of a rifle shooting practice invitation placed within school campus limits at a school she taught at and held strong beliefs that encouraging violence is not to the best of society's interests, but in spite of her beliefs, she was shipped to court.

As Judge Dante led-off the hearing on an uncivilized note, Harriet told the court reenactments and rifle shooting practice classes that encourage violence are out-of-touch with society and took time to criticize Judge Dante of approving war-simulated reenactments to pave the way of a future without violence. Harriet then told Judge Dante that Stanford forgot the real reason the American Civil War erupted, but admitted her real motive for her crime: The Civil War should be remembered for preserving the Union and ensuing freedom for the slaves instead of honoring local Pacific Bay hero Dexter Blade, in which Harriet's ancestor was a slave and joined the Colored Brigade to aid the Union in defeating the Confederacy at all costs.

In spite of her beliefs against violence, Harriet was found guilty of grand homicide and was sentenced to 20 years in jail at County level.
