A suicide note?
A confession letter?
Why throw it into the trash after writing it?
"Guys, look for handwriting samples from the deceased in the house," Luke sent a photo to the group.
Soon, the team members found some documents with the signatures and some written words of the deceased, Helson Swiney.
Having self-studied handwriting analysis, Luke began comparing the handwriting on the documents with that on the crumpled paper after confirming the documents' authenticity.
After careful examination, Luke felt the suicide note on the crumpled paper was indeed in the deceased's handwriting and not forged.
Motive, murder weapon, suicide note...
The case seemed to be getting closer to the truth.
The deputy approached and asked, "How's the handwriting analysis coming along?"
Luke said, "The handwriting on the paper found in the trash and on the other documents is the same, probably the deceased's own handwriting in the suicide note."
