Shanaya Peota (Criminal Case)

Shanaya Peota is the villainess of "Burying the Hatchet", case #53 of the crime solving game Criminal Case (release date January 16, 2014). She was an Aloki Indian and the ex-wife of Delsin Peota, with whom she had two children (a son and a daughter).
Following her divorce, social worker Sandy Grimmes took Shanaya's children from her custody and placed them in foster care. Furious at Sandy for taking her children, as well as for having begun a relationship with Delsin, Shanaya killed Sandy when she came to the settlement for an appointment with another client of hers, Keanu Ashokan. The evil Shanaya tied Sandy to a pole before using a replica hatchet she stole from Grim Gas (a nearby gas station) to chop her hands off, this having been an ancient Aloki punishment for thieves.
Keanu and Delsin were both initially suspected of killing Sandy, but the evidence (including beads from Shanaya's necklace that fell onto Sandy's jacket during the attack) eventually proved Shanaya was the true killer. Upon being arrested, Shanaya angrily proclaimed that she wouldn't submit to Grimsborough law and that what she did was "right and just". At her trial, Shanaya went into a rant about how Shanaya had (in her mind) stolen her husband and children from her and humiliated her, while also bringing up how Sandy's ancestor, Solomon Grimmes, had stolen the betrothed wife of Keme Peota (an ancestor of Delsin's). Judge Olivia Hall ultimately sentenced Shanaya to life imprisonment.

* "What about HER crime? She used her outsider ways to enchant my husband, and then she sent my kids away! I was a happy Aloki wife until Sandy started working in our settlement...she made me the laughing stock of the community! And it's not the first time something like this has happened to the Aloki! Solomon Grimmes blackened the age-old harmony of our people the day he stole the warrior Keme's betrothed! But now both the great Keme and I have been avenged!" (Shanaya's enraged rant on why she killed Sandy Grimmes)
