Sorry your original idea didn't pane out. I just didn't see a non-canon character working out.

Anywho, the case I'm going to re-write now is Summer of Death

New killer: James Henderson



Zara: Mr. Henderson, it's over! We know you killed Noah Lowe!

James: Hey, just 'cause I didn't wanna go with Noah to New York doesn't mean I killed him.

Zara: Well, we thought that too, until we saw the guitar wax you left smeared on the van after you bludgeoned Noah to death!

James: That's sick, man! I wouldn't do that! And I'm far from the only guitar player here.

Zara: Well, not all of them left granola and a passage from On the Highway after they killed their boyfriend!

Zara: Why would you do such a thing, James? Especially to someone who cared about you like Noah!?

James: I didn't mean to, I swear! I never meant to hurt Noah, I loved him!

Zara: Loved him!? You told us earlier you weren't ready to settle down.

James: Well, I felt that way at first. But after I got to know Noah, I started falling for him. He was so sweet, so caring....the first kind of guy I've met in my life. When I found out he wanted to go to the big city with me, I was stoked! Being in my dream city with my dream man....

Zara: I still don't understand. If you loved Noah, why kill him?

James: It was his psycho dad's fault! When he found out Noah was going to run away with me, he went ballistic. Grabbed me one night and told me that, if I didn't break up with Noah, he'd get some guys to teach me a lesson. He was completely insane, I knew he'd do it! It took everything in me to meet Noah near that van to break things off....

James: He was heartbroken, started begging me not to give up what we had. I was in tears, I just wanted to end it before I completely lost it. I....I just shoved Noah away and ran away to cry alone. I swear, I didn't know he'd hit his head until much later!

James: (in sobs) Oh Noah, I loved you so much! I can't believe I did this!

Zara: I'm so sorry, James. You clearly didn't intend to hurt Noah, and we'll be sure Alfred Lowe gets charged with his actions. We still have to bring you in, but we'll make sure authorities know about the extenuating circumstances of your actions.
