Since he has a history of attacking people a long time ago, the police suspects him of being the attacker no matter how he tries to convince them that he's innocent.
4. some clues
-Fin had experienced uncontrollable rage a couple years ago, and he would sometimes tell Teresa about what it felt like when he went totally out of control, how he wanted to kill someone when he was in rage. Once, Fin's boss was very angry because he thought that Fin was guilty of killing one of the most expensive birds that he was selling at the store. Fin almost was fired but somehow kept his job.
