Take a look at the hints below for guidance.

Hint 1

EJ3 had a number of reasons to dislike Big Mack. But did he have the means, motive, and opportunity for murder?

According to the autopsy, Big Mack consumed a large amount of performance enhancing drugs (PEDs) at some point within three hours before his death.

EJ3’s injury during the game meant that he was in the locker room before halftime. So he had the opportunity to dose Mack’s drink!

He was clearly angry at this time. Could it have something to do with the phone?

In his interview in Damien’s book, he claims that he threw away his own phone, but says it was after Big Mack’s death, not before halftime. 

Mack’s shattered cell phone has a photo of EJ3’s wife on the lock screen. EJ3 had motive!
