Criminal Investigations: Deadly Legacy, The Case of Yvette Julien

It all began with an alarming call in the early hours of the morning. An elderly woman, 90-year-old Yvette Julien, is close to death. Unconscious, she was found lying in a pool of blood in her home, where she lived alone. The investigators quickly dismiss the attack being a part of a burglary. Nothing was stolen and the front door showed no signs of break in. They deduce that the attacker must have had keys to her house. Who in this defenseless woman’s life could commit such a savage attack? And why would anyone do such a thing?

So the investigators turn to Yvette’s relatives. Among them, Maurice Boiteux, Yvette’s nephew and one and only carer. He lives far away from her, 800km to be exact, but still calls her everyday to check in. He also holds a set of keys to her house, but is quickly cleared of suspicion as he has a solid alibi. So, who, then, is responsible?
