Take a look at the hints below for guidance!

    HINT 01

    Patrick is the CEO of Mediluck Medicines. He hired Nell to find out who was leaking the information to the competitors but is now one of the main suspects for her death. What was Patrick doing around the time of the murder?

    HINT 02

    We know from part 3 that Patrick would be appearing on the State of Affairs programme with Michael Lamprey from 19:45. (it says so in the subtitle on the BAC video screenshot, and we know that this is Patrick because his profile picture can be seen in the video player and it is the same image that is seen on Nell’s search for female executives at Severn and Young from Part One). This puts Patrick in the building at around the same time the murder took place and he was not in Belfast filming as we were led to believe from Part One evidence. How can we build a precise timeline for his movements?

    HINT 03

    Turn your attention to the time the live debate was first streamed, and the moment Patrick was first introduced (see the online BAC player time bar). What time was Patrick first welcomed to the debate?

    HINT 04

    The live stream started at 19:45. Patrick came on the screen 40 minutes and 2 seconds into the stream, making the time 20:25 when he joined the debate, but we don’t know how long he was on the call for…It could have been a brief appearance allowing enough time to have committed the murder after the call. We need to establish how long he was on the live stream.  

    HINT 05

    The Coroner’s Report from Part One said the murder took place between 8 and 9 pm. And in part 1, Camera 27 (the CCTV footage of the rear exit) catches the murderer fleeing through the fire door at 20:36:52. Could this have been Patrick fleeing? Evidence from the online webmail will help determine how long Patrick was on the live stream.

    HINT 07

    Zöe Zinc’s MyFacePlace profile states that Patrick was tearing into the competition for 20 minutes from the moment he went live.

    Answer

    Patrick was busy appearing live on the Lamprey Show through the time of the murder, giving him an alibi. He was live from 20:25 until 20:45. Furthermore, a hair was found at the scene of the crime (Crime Scene Report from Part 1) and Patrick is bald!
