Tastes like a Fine Wine....

**A Taste of Nostalgia** is the 17th case in Island Investigations, the 2nd case to occur at Little Hollywood, as well as the 400th case overall.

## ***Plot***

After Robin De Luz informs us about something weird he heard in one of the dressing rooms, we rush to the dressing room to find a Dead Body, An Access Card, and Scissors. We first read the Access Card to find out it belongs to a Producer by the name of David Engelhardt. We question him he knew the victim to which he responds saying that the victim was Ross Hamilton, one of the actors at the studio. We question him if he knew anyone that wanted Ross dead to which he responds saying that Ross was loved amongst everyone. We then dust the Scissors for fingerprints to find out it belongs to a Barber by the name of Ricky Hernandez. We question Ricky if he knew Ross and he says that Ross was one of his main customers and that he would often attract attention to his store. We then get an analysis from our coroner, Julia Sanchez about the body to which she deems the cause of death as electrocution. She also says she found traces of perfume on the body and we write that down. We then find out about a break-in in Ross's House. In his house, we find a note with a kiss on it, and a taser battery. We analyze the kiss and find out it belongs to famous actor, Rosalie Portman. We question Rosalie about the note to which she responds saying her and Ross were just having fun. We then send the taser battery to our lab chief, Karen Wilson and she find traces of Jam and we write that down. We then discuss the clues we have so far about our killer when we get a report about a break-in in the Studio Lounge. We head to the Lounge to find one security guard, Clive Harris panicking. We ask Mr. Harris to leave he room and we investigate the scene. In the Lounge, We find a torn up business card for Ricky Hernandez's Salon, A script with coffee stains on it, and a message with the "LEAVE ME ALONE!" on it. First, we analyze the writing on the note to find out it belonged to Rosalie Portman. We question Rosalie about the note to which she responds saying Ross wanted to marry her and that she was the love of his life. Rosalie didn't want to be in a full time relationship with Ross so she dumped him. Ever since then, Ross Hamilton had been following her hoping to win her back. We then send the script to Karen to see if she can find anything to which she does. She says she found traces of David Engelhardt and Ross Hamilton's DNA on it. We question David about the script to which he responds saying that he had come up with the most amazing show and he wanted Ross to be the main role. Ross refused however and David wanted to confront him about it. Ross said that his script was terrible and that he didn't want to be the main role in a show that was horrible. We then ask Ricky Hernandez why his card was torn up and he responds saying that Ross had found a new salon and decided to advertise it. When he did, Ricky confronted him about to which Ross Hamilton laughed at his face and torn up the business card. We then ask Mr. Harris at the break-in to which he reply's saying he doesn't know who broke in but he that person he saw in the lounge was Ross Hamilton. We tell him the Mr. Hamilton is dead and we ask him to keep a close eye on anything strange. We then decide it would be a good idea to look at Ross's Room again and we find tow more things. We find a faded note, and a crushed bottle of soda. We send the Bottle to Karen and she says that the bottle is Coke. Julia then walks in saying that Ross did not have any Coke prior to his death so that this can must be out killers. We write this down in out Killer's Profile. We then restore the note to find out it belongs to another famous actor, Sebastian McFee. We ask Sebastian about the note to which he responds saying it was a gift from him to Ross. He said the Ross had potential to become a big star. We go over the clues once more and discussing the motives our suspects have until we get call about a disturbance once again in Studio Lounge. We head over to the Studio Lounge to see Clive Harris, and Sebastian McFee fighting. When we arrive, we hear very interesting arguments between the both of them. Sebastian said the Clive always hated Ross and wanted to do anything to get him in trouble. Clive said that Sebastian always put down Ross and said he could never make it big. We then break up the fight and confront both of them about the accusations. We first confront Clive about his accusations and he says it's true. He also hated Ross and wanted him to fail. He also confesses that he was the one who called the police for a "Break-In" to try and frame Ross Hamilton. We then go confront Sebastian about the accusations he faced to which he also responds saying it's true. He always laughed at Ross's talent and that he had no place in the Movie World. He also confesses that he was the one who broke-into Ross's house in order to get dirt on him. We then take a look at Ross's house again and find 2 things. We find a Threatening Note and Straw. We send bot to Karen Wilson and she find DNA on both of them. She says that Killer is over 50 and has blue eyes. We write this down in our Killer's Profile. We go over the evidence one more time and finally arrest the killer.

## ***Killer and Motives***

The killer turned out to be David.

Upon admitting to the murder, David mentioned moving to Santa Matnette when he became a famous producer to do a movie about the dictator's life. Ross was offered a big role in the movie, but he refused because he hated the dictator, and he wasn't pleased with the money they offered him. David wanted to choose someone else, but he was blackmailed by an unknown person into killing Ross. He didn't refuse, since he was offered enough money to never have any problems again.

Judge Sakura sentenced David to life in prison.

## **Stealing The Show *(2/5)***

We take David into custody and ask him about the anonymous person who blackmailed him. He says he was sent a letter with a stun gun and a message saying "Kill or Die!" We analyze the message and find some fingerprints on it, belonging to Zara Fox. We have no idea why she wanted Ross dead, but she was reported to be missing, so the search for her begins.
