Thanks, wingedcatgirl, that's the one.
A crime's been committed and all the evidence points to one suspect. So much evidence, in fact, that it seems like the suspect's being framed - he'll say stuff like "If I was going to kill him, don't you think I'd be smart enough to take off my personalized cufflinks before doing so?"
Of course, that raises another hypothesis - he committed the crime and made it obvious it was him just so he could claim he was framed - especially if he made a big deal of making the "evidence" freely accessible.
