[For the first time, Amdi comes into the courtroom carting some serious evidence: a bloody forester's axe. He seems to be taking this role quite seriously too, carrying the axe carefully balanced across two of his backs rather than clenched in his jaws. He gently sets it on the floor in the circle where everyone can see, before taking his podium.]
It looks like a tree fell on him, but the way it fell was weird. It wasn't chopped down, it looks like it was pulled out of the ground with the roots still on. Which should have been impossible without machinery, I think, except that the soil around the roots was really loose.
Also, I'm not sure the tree is what killed him. There was a lot of blood, but I think it was mostly from the axe wounds on his arm, and from his leg that was stuck in a really big paw trap. The trap also had a bloody rope tied to it that I think would have been long enough to wrap around the tree too.
[Amdi gestures a head over at Nigel, who was dextrous enough nice enough to untie the rope for him and bring it down as well.]

So... I think I was the first person to find Seven... 's body, and... I noticed a few things.
