WW8 (Sammy, Joe, Linus, Margo)

The motto life’s not fair is very appropriate for a man whose story you will have to try to imagine for yourself: You are detained as one of three suspects for the murder of a man whose body was found by a logger in a river. You have been leading a normal life until just two weeks ago. Today you stand in a court proclaiming your innocence. Although you may not know it, your prosecutors, including one of the other suspects who plead guilty and now stands as a witness, hold ten bits of information that would lead to your successful plea and the chance to go back to your family. You feel that your antiperspirant hasn’t worked and your light yellow dress shirt begins to soak up the sweat underneath your arms and on your back and neck. You wipe the top of your forehead and look at your glistening fingertips as you await a final decision. You have had the opportunity to control your own destiny and you have acted accordingly however, due to an unfortunate coincidence, your fate is in the hands of people who do not know you or what really happened. But someone was murdered and someone must pay.
