Yann Toussaint

"Analyzing those samples was easy enough. Doing it while telling a bedtime story to my daughter on the phone... THAT took skill."

- Yann Toussaint

Yann Toussaint is the Forensic Expert of the Pacific Bay Police Department.

Profile
As a Forensics expert of 41 years of age and of African-American heritage, Yann is in charge of all Physical and Clinical Forensics in the Pacific Bay PD. He has long salt-and-pepper hair, black eyes, and a dark grey beard. As the Forensic Expert, Yann wears a standard lab coat with a pocket on the left which consists of a forceps and a forensic brush. Underneath the lab coat, he wears an earth green t-shirt with a leaf green oak tree designed on it. Other than that, he wears a golden ring on his ring finger, a beaded necklace around his neck, and also a beaded bracelet on his left hand.

Besides that, it is known that his favourite animal is a seahorse and that his favourite food is Tandoori Chicken. Yann is also known to be kind, secretive, and is known to be a globetrotter of sorts.

Notable Events of Criminal Case
Yann wanted to know the player a bit more following the arrest of Mighty Pete in What Dies Beneath. As suggested during the oceanic leg of the Additional Investigation, Yann knows scuba diving, a feat he remembered when he saw a whale shark in Thailand. It is during this moment in which the player meets Yann's daughter, Lily, in-person.

Yann demonstrated some awareness to Voodoo Magic in Bayou Blood when he analyzed a voodoo paper that couldn't be psychologically analyzed. Later in the case, Yann demonstrated his love and willingness to try out a seafood dish called "gumbo" (a famous dish in Bayou Bleu) as well. There Yann worked with Ignatius Dupree to ensure a positive impact in a marital anniversary with his wife Jessica rapidly-approaching in the game. Yann and the player succeeded in providing rare persimmons Ignatius needed for supplying his customers gumbo, but Ignatius wanted Yann to try the gumbo out before cooking some for the wedding anniversary, something Yann delightfully agreed to.

Personal Life
Yann is married to Jessica Toussaint and the two have two children: a son named James and a daughter named Lily.

Besides that, it is known that Yann knows scuba diving. He also loves adventure and has travelled to various parts of the world, for instance he once claimed that he went to the remains of the Aztec pyramids one time, where he drank some random drinks given by the mute nuns.
