Killer
* Heath Johnston
Motive
* Ryan: Of course...Heath Johnston, you're under arrest for the murder of Ayat Bekzhanov. Why'd you do it?
* Heath: Right to the chase, I like it...
* Heath: Truth be told, I DID kill Ayat Bekzahanov!
* Ryan: But why? What possible threat could he have posed to you?!
* Heath: Him and his little villager friends wanted to protest that we took over their lands after we invaded that! We've moved on from them and aren't that focused on them. I couldn't let that happen!
* Heath: As soon as I heard about it, I decided to take their leader out myself!
* Ryan: Wow. If you really don't care about their village, you should've just let them free! Easy!
* Heath: We can't do that! It may sound dumb now, but you'll understand...soon enough...
* Ryan: What YOU need to understand is that you're going to jail for murder! 
* Heath: I'd like to see you try, smartass.
* Ryan: Don't push me, kid! 
Sentence
Life Imprisonment
Additional Investigation
After arresting Heath, Zivai tells us that he figured out that Heath is used as a mercenary for the terrorists who became one of the top hitmen during his college years and that it's likely he started killing ever since then. They use him to clean up their dirty work. We then tell Libby to publicize the story and she does, causing the protesters' voices to be heard and sparking other protests in areas the terrorists took over. While most were unsuccesseful, Ayat's efforts paid off and his village became free once again. We then realized thanks to Ayat's diary that the terrorists wanted to take over their village because they have a close connection with a British Ambassador named Maggie Poole. When we look her up, we realize that she's had several campaigns to end this terrorist organization ever since the 2010's and that she's been one of the biggest thorns in their sides. We then ask Heath about Maggie in prison, and he tells us that he was sent to kidnap her and give her to their leader who would do the honours. He said that it's been hard though because she's always at a new place and because she always has so much security around her to prevent anything from happening to her. The closest Heath got to killing her was when he killed two of her bodyguards before she was sent into hiding. He said that thanks to Ayat's diary which he read after killing him, he knows where Maggie is and sent the coordinates to the terrorists. We demanded him to tell us where Maggie was and after a while he cracked, saying that they're probably already there anyways. Heath said that he found out the ambassador was at an auction in Singapore because she wanted to win an ancient artifact to donate to a British museum. We rush there immediately, hoping it isn't too late to save the ambassador's life, as she could have some useful information to help us out. However, when we get there, we realize that an auctioneer was murdered instead.
