Who do you think is the killer? Is it the same person or different to the person it was last week?
Why?
What clues haven't been answered satisfactorily? What clues don't actually exonerate anyone?

I was thinking Adele, but I'm now on Roshan / Elam at the moment.

So heres my suspect list, I definitely left lots out, and I clearly got a little lazy by the end. Just a list of the characters and reasons to suspect them. I personally have found Penny the most obvious suspect right from week 1, but after hearing Roshan's account of the night I have grown far more suspicious of the boys (specifically Elan, Roshan, Laramie). In terms of Adelle she obviously had the easiest means to kill Naomi, but at this stage lacks any motive whatsoever.
Penny: - Probably pregnant - ultrasound found - did not drink alcohol at night of party - went to the toilet a lot at the party - if she is pregnant, Drew definitely doesn't know because he thinks she is diabetic...is there a scandal here that somehow involves Naomi and provides motive? - According to Adelle she lied to police about going upstairs - Could just be lying to hide her pregnancy, trying to hide the fact that she went to the bathroom so much - Potentially left a piece of fabric from 'patchwork' dress in upstairs bathroom that Roshan found - Weird hand drawings from three weeks before the party were always creepily holding knives after the party..seems a little sus (especially given that the group were presumably not told she was stabbed, but it was brought up by Adelle) - When Drew suggested Naomi might be upstairs Penny was pretty certain that Naomi wasnt…how would she have known this if she didn't go upstairs? Especially given that Naomi had last been seen going upstairs to take out feathers?
Hatchi: - Asking everyone else to send in suspicions about other people seems like a good way to make everyone suspect each other so he can get away clean - Conveniently left town as 'artist in residence' after the incident - We think he's the only one who saw the body (maybe Adelle did) - Time when he was alone with Drew and Drew doesn't remember anything about their conversation
Laramie: - Went to the yard around the time the murder was possibly occurring - as mentioned there is a tree outside Naomi's room so he could have climbed up and through the window (that was maybe left open by Roshan) - I don't find it likely that he is the killer because after he smoked outside he came in to say goodbye to Naomi, and made the others notice she was missing. In my mind the murderer would have wanted to leave the body unnoticed for as long as possible, which would have made it harder for police to determine the time of the murder as well as conceal other evidence, and give them more time to act like they are unaware that anything is wrong, which would make others trust that character. - Was secretly being tutored by Naomi (secrets in general are suspicious) - Thinks Naomi was pregnant, could possibly link to a motive
Adelle: - Was upstairs at time of murder - Planted suspicion on Roshan for being in Naomi's room (glitter on the door handle) but failed to mention that she already knew he had been upstairs, given that (according to Roshan) they had had a conversation about the crinkled paper) - Was really heavily putting blame on Penny, then also suggesting Roshan as a suspect, possibly out of desperation but was still trying really hard to throw others under the bus - Knows that Naomi was stabbed, not sure how much information the police would have told her if she was the main suspect?
Roshan: - Prayed at (8pm), he washed in the upstairs bathroom, then prayed, then got a leaf from the willow tree outside Naomi's window, which he possibly left open. Upstairs spoke to Adelle about a paper, and spoke to Naomi as she was going upstairs to take out feathers. - A gap in his activity between here and when he returned from 'wherever' with Laramie.
Elan: - Secretly dating Naomi and fought that day - Could have secretly been at the party and climbed through window
Drew: - Says he remembers everything about that night, but then goes back and says that he remembers nothing about his conversation with Hatchi when they were alone? - Was drinking that night
Other notes: - Not sure of the purpose of the photo of the museum in Canberra with the braille writing of 'mate', not sure what it has to do with 'new life' as claimed by the characters, or what relevance it has to the case. - There is an inconsistency in the timeline of Adelle and Naomi being upstairs. In Drew's first letter (page 5) he recounts that just before 9pm Adelle went upstairs to go to bed, taking off her jewellery, and also says that Naomi was ALREADY UPSTAIRS. This is strangely contradicted by Roshan's postcard where he said that after praying he saw Adelle already upstairs (and spoke to her), then PASSED Naomi walking up the stairs (and spoke to her too). This means that Naomi wasn't already upstairs when Adelle went to bed? Im not sure if this inconsistency is just a product of the subjective experiences of each person. - Roshan mentions a piece of crinkled fabric in the bathroom (assumedly the green fabric sent to us a week before..which we are not sure if that was meant to be delivered this week instead because we had no context for it last week). He then mentions a piece of paper he showed to Adelle and Naomi, referring to it as 'THE' piece of paper...he cant possibly be referring to the ultrasound that Laramie found...so what is it? Adelle nor Naomi recognised it. Is it possible it was Hatchi's blank piece of paper referenced in Drew's note? That last point is a little far fetched but ah well. Also received a thin, clear plastic strip...is this a clue?

WOW what a list. Fantastic.
The clear plastic strip = crinkly paper.
