It All Ends Here

It All Ends Here (Case #51) is the fifty-first case of the game and the last in Maple Heights district.

Case Background
The victim was a socialite called Adam Bentley, who was murdered in the Election Day inside the Red Party offices, after being shot by a handgun right between the eyes. In a shocking turn of events, it was revealed that the Chief Police Officer of the Grimsborough Police Department, Samuel King was Adam's murderer.

Officer Jones was in shock when all the evidences of Adam's murder pointed towards Samuel, but Samuel admitted to Jones and the player that he killed Adam, and thus decided to commit suicide probably because he felt guilty for his actions and to avoid his jail sentence. Samuel wept, but Jones pleaded with him to put the gun away, and instead to explain why he killed Adam before the judge in court. Samuel told the player that the team must find out the reasons on their own, and after saying his last words, he shot himself to death in a tragic ending.

Samuel never revealed the reason why he killed Adam. However, one possible reason of why he killed Adam may be: Adam was having an invitation to the Red Party and Samuel thought it was fake, since Howard was only inviting the important people. Samuel couldn't bear the fact that Adam would enter the campaign's party and so he went to kill him, to protect Mayor Johnson's campaign.
