THIRD TRIAL
[ Two bodies this week. As a result, it's a little longer before Mayor Fontaine's voice calls out over the loudspeakers. ]
All right, that'll do, all of you. Get to the bathyspheres. Trial time.
[ There's fewer bathyspheres this week, aren't there? It's starting to get really noticeable. One by one, alone or in pairs, you descend into the depths. The bottom of the seafloor, a place no human life was meant to travel to unassisted. It's dark, until it isn't, the same bio-luminescent slugs as before lighting up the area and revealing the great glass dome in which the trial takes place.
Within, three more podiums have gone dark. They remain empty as you all gather around into the circle.
The projector clicks on, and you see the silhouette of Mayor Fontaine above you. ]
We all know why we're here. Florida Man and Cryptobro got themselves got. Up to you to figure out who did it, or... well, you know by now.

rip jason who died as he lived: like a molotov cocktail (cw: needles/addiction)
So Jason was in the church. He's like twice my weight so I had some issues when making sure he was actually dead, hence all the goddamn blood. No, I didn't change. You can all deal with it. Three stab wounds here, here, and here [She indicates on her own body.] of relatively clean persuasion. Probably not someone super trained? They seem to have ended up near his heart by accident, not on purpose.
[What else? This is the worst. Pour one out for Forrest, man.]
Aiba said his hands were still juiced up from the Plasmids he took, but I couldn't find an evidence he was, like, addicted to them or anything. I'm thinking that means it was just not long after he died that I found him. Hadn't burned out of his system yet. Some evidence of burns on his arms, but Aiba looked at that more thoroughly. I don't know, man. I was not up for finding another body this morning. I just wanted nachos.
