Without knowing it, the culprit has left a clue in the note… It’s
in the ink!
Black ink is often made from a mixture of other coloured inks.
The inks will dissolve in water and move through filter paper at
different rates, separating out into coloured bands. Each 5 Min
different brand of pen has its own unique fingerprint. We have
managed to take the favourite pens from each of three key
suspects and if we can find the ink that matches the ink used on
the letter, we will find the culprit.
