Scarecrow of 1889

There once was a boy who was an orphan and suffered abuse from his village residents. The only friend he had was the dummy scarecrow on the field, whom he talked to. One day, a wealthy man brutally beat the boy. The next morning, the wealthy man was found dead, and the scarecrow was covered in blood.  Terrified, the villagers were convinced that the scarecrow had come to life to avenge its tormented friend. And it was the last scarecrow ever placed again in the fields, considering it a sign of death.  —   After scarecrow dolls begin appearing in the streets of Riddleford next to murder victims, the town is thrown into chaos. When the hunt for the mystery scarecrow murderer begins, it is only a matter of time before the famous Frontier Hall Opera House employees are subjected to suspicion, each protecting a secret of their own. But is that all that is going on? Or is there something unseen?

Final Verdict

Charles took a deep breath and began, 

"In the beginning, questions arose about Mr. Crowley's fingerprints at the crime scenes. Mr. Hamilton portrayed him as manipulative and cunning, but would such a person leave incriminating evidence behind? When Margot Brooks's body was discovered, Mr. Crowley was present. He could have fled but didn't. Why? Because he suffers from split personality disorder. The disbelief comes from not encountering these personalities firsthand or understanding the complexities of split personality disorder."

"It's like when people once believed the earth was flat until exploration proved otherwise. These personalities have their own thoughts, lives, and behaviours, exerting control over Mr. Crowley. I urge you not to condemn Mr. Crowley for actions beyond his control, for things he doesn't recall or may not even know about. Please don't punish him for something he is helpless against. Thank you."
