Nick Johnson

Nick Johnson is a researcher at the Paville Institute accused of murdering Alexandra Kranf. He has refused to testify in court.

Reasons for suspicion
On the day of the murder, Johnson was witnessed crossing a bridge to the crime scene with the victim. As the security guard on duty reported nobody else crossing, and no other parties were found at the scene, the killing appeared to be a perfect locked room. That the defendant was found ostensibly stargazing on a rooftop six stories above the crime scene, several hours after the murder, was taken by investigators as a sign of his incredible callousness..

While Johnson's motive is admittedly hazy, the Prosecution contends that he may have been the "leaker" who hacked into the rival Euklein research center, and may have been trying to silence Kranf's investigation.
