This cache is part of the "To Cache A Murderer" Series, Ballenger Creek Trail edition, and centers around one of the suspects in the case. The full "whodunit?" is written up in
this final cache.
Patrick Russell Mann survived the rough inner city streets through sharp wit and good head on his shoulders, traits he applies to puzzle caches with great success. He now owns several multi-million dollar tech startups, but his friends still call him P 'Ussell. The only nearby caches that he couldn't solve belonged to the victim, Peyton Cash. Peyton was known for occasionally making super-hard puzzles that hardly anyone could solve--a terrible, terrible crime in the caching world. Enough to kill over? That remains to be seen.
Investigating the scene, you show his picture to neighbors, joggers, and anyone else in the area. Finally, someone responds, "Yes! I saw him..."
