Samuel Rye

Samuel Rye was a stock trader and the victim in Blood on the Trading Floor (Case #12).

Murder Details
Samuel was found hung up in the Stock Exchange, cut open in the stomach and emptied of his insides. He was killed by a samurai sword. Upon autopsy, it was discovered that Samuel was out partying before he was killed and was found with a high level of alcohol and barbiturates in his body. When he was hung up, he tried to break free and broke both of his arms doing so. The killer was discovered to use dental floss as there were traces of it on Samuel's wrists. It was also discovered that he could only have been cut with a small sharp object.

Killer and Motives
The killer was also a stock trader named Harry Krane. Alden Greene needed a new stock trader, so he wanted to hire Samuel. Harry didn't like it when Samuel kept on bragging about his deal with Alden and as a result, he got jealous and killed Samuel with a samurai sword, and hung the victim up in the Stock Exchange.
