ZFR: I... uh, received the following PM from zeogold:

"I'm PMing you since you're obviously the most intelligent member of the jury, and already know the solution. I'd like to tell you, as of course you already know, that the Telephone Technician is the crucial clue, but all the other ones were stupid enough not to see it.
I'll also tell you that, as of course you already know, the defendant is not guilty, the murderer is the fake nurse and Yezemin is a planted juror working for the Hong Kong mafia."

I'm sharing this in the er... interest of fairness. This is 100% legit.

To prove I'm not lying here is my vote: Prosecution Witness, Telephone Technician. Would I be voting this way myself if the above was a lie?

ZFR: the murderer is the fake nurse

ashwald: a question for the telephone technician afterwards

omega64: Come on guys, do something. Try to kill Zeogold, anything.

zeogold: You could vote.

zeogold: You could vote.

zeogold: The coroner's report states that the time of death was definitely between 9 P.M. and midnight. Death was caused by a single gunshot wound to the chest, severing the right coronary artery and causing the victim to quickly bleed to death. Other damage to the body included a severely fractured tibia in the lower left leg. The tibia was bruised, but not broken. There also appeared to be a few burn marks on the body.

Bookwyrm627: Burn marks? What kind of burn marks, and where? Are we talking powder burns around the bullet wound, as if someone had pressed the gun right up against the victim before firing?

Are we talking burns on the hand as the gun the victim was holding misfired, shooting the bullet straight backward into his chest instead of into his target?

zeogold: Take a wild guess what kind of burn marks they are.
I want out of here.

omega64: Burn marks from the cigarettes Zeogoldilocks pressed into his skin when he was a child.
