The case against Sergeant Aston Kenness
The following evidence has been gathered by the Diamond Legion in the case against Sergeant Kenness:
�� A scrap of uniform, including a Patrol Sergeant’s rank insignia, was found clutched in the
dead woman’s hand. Kenness’ spare uniform is ‘missing’, and he cannot account for it.
He claims that he sent it to be cleaned several days ago, and has not yet picked it up, but
the laundress claims that he picked it up two days ago.
�� A torn uniform was found in Sergeant Kenness’ rubbish bin. The tear matches the scrap
of cloth found clutched in the dead woman’s hand.
�� Sergeant Kenness was seen speaking to the woman earlier in the day. It appeared that
they were arguing about something.
�� A dagger, marked with the initials ‘AK’, was used in the murder. It was found next to
the dead woman’s body.
�� A trail of bloody boot prints, leading from where the body was found straight to Sergeant
Kenness’ back door in the alley.
