A Shot of Beauty

A Shot of Beauty (Case #45) is the fourty-fifth case of the game and the fourth in the Maple Heights district.

Case Background
The victim was a woman named Kerry Ann Buxton. She was found dead at the Buxton Manison's swimming pool, with syringes all over her bloated faces. The killer was Kerry Ann's ex-boyfriend and a famous wrestler called Tom Norris.

Tom found out that Kerry Ann had posed nude for Vermont and he didn't like it, he found the pictures to be disgusting, immoral, and loathsome. As Kerry Ann would never listen to him he wanted to teach her a lesson and decided to show her that with all the collagen in the world she would never be young and pretty any longer. When she was standing next to him she was ranting about how sexy she was and how the regain in the mayor's campaign was all thanks to her. He was in such pain of hearing this that he swatted her with the syringe until he ran out of collagen. Kerry Ann tried to defend herself, and even nearly scalped him, but to no avail. He then threw her into the pool and watched as she was dying. When confronted in court for the murder, Tom argued that while he was guilty Kerry Ann was already dead long before this, as in that the Maple Heights district and its residents had "killed" her soul with their games of appearance.
