Shark Attack!

Shark Attack! (Case #57, or Case #1 of Pacific Bay) is the fifty-seventh case of the game, and the first case of Pacific Bay and the Ocean Shore district.

Case Background
The player just arrived at the Pacific Bay Police Headquarters where the Chief of Police, Andrea Marquez, delightfully welcomed the player to her team. She then confirmed that Junior Officer Amy Young and Detective Frank Knight were assigned to be the player's partners in Pacific Bay. As Frank was currently on an anger management course, Andrea decided to introduce the newly recruited Amy Young to the player and suggested her to kick things off by showing the player around Ocean Shore. Amy, with full excitement, willingly agreed and the two headed off to Sunny Beach. Moments later at the Sunny Beach, Amy and the player witnessed a brutal shark murder, thus beginning their first murder investigation together as a team.

The shark's victim was a reality TV show star named Jimmy "Ice P" Lewis, who was half-eaten by the shark with his fingers pryed off and his hands taped together with tape. The killer was a shark expert named Trevor Finn.

Trevor blamed Ice P for his downfall because Ice P drove the sharks out of the shoreline so that Ice P would make his reality TV show safe to film, causing Trevor to seek work as a parrot keeper in a zoo in Pacific Bay. Trevor was mad because without sharks in the beach, he couldn't be a shark expert like he was once before. So Trevor blueprinted his comeback so that he could have his life back, but Amy and the player shipped Trevor to court where he had to explain the methods before the Honorable Dante, who currently serves as the city's justice.

Trevor told the Honorable Dante that Ice P was to be blamed for the destruction of his career, and continuing from Amy and the player arresting Trevor, he saw Ice P grossly drunk exiting out of the Tiki Shack, giving Trevor a good opportunity to lead him to a secluded spot in the beach. There Trevor tied Ice P's hands with sticky tape and sliced the victim's fingers with his sailing knife, threw those fingers into the sea, and shortly afterwards, dragged Ice P into the waters as well. Ice P didn't go down without a fight as he struggled to stay away from the waters by lodging Trevor a bit but alas, Trevor succeeded, putting Ice P in the waters just enough for the shark to make contact with the victim, and Trevor swam away afterwards--which were grounds for the Honorable Dante issuing a lifetime jail sentence with no parole to Trevor.
