The mystery of the false leg
The false leg was found by Edna Mc Feckwit, a widow ever since her late husband passed away from choking on an oxtail bone shortly after WW2, she was dumping her left over jigsaw pieces into a hedge when she discovered the prosthetic limb.The police were called and Detective Marsupial was put in charge of the case. A forensic team gathered the evidence and this was presented to the Detective who issued his statement to the gathered world press.
To the average person it was just a false leg left in a hedge but to a seasoned veteran like Marsupial something foul and sinister was afoot.

2. Which limb was it?
Cal, Hopefully it will continue
More clues:
There is a scent of lavender and small sticky areas on the thigh area.
Never thought you a copy and paste guy,
Lavender would probably suggest a woman more, and a woman interested in scents and herbs at that
Thigh-sticky bits probably refer to a man more as I don't think any woman here has gotten lucky in the last month
Anyway, it's almost 5pm here
Well......hmmmm......none of the above.
Come play our game
I have narrowed it down, in my head, but need more proof
I'd love to come out and play, doing all 'em cartwheel but you think I should? Looking like this??
I'm having my red streaks dyed in the salon, they are aluminium foils!
I'll save them for you when I come visiting
You know he has a thing for redheads!

@Mimi, I will love your hair.
@Molls, you know I only have eyes for you.... Three of 'em!
Molly
This IS war!!
DNA results show most of the items collected for evidence contain dog saliva from at least 2 dogs, both female and the hair found stuck to the upper thigh also contained dog DNA.
The wet carrot contained female DNA and the greasy oven glove contained large amounts of Turmeric.
No. 3 looks pretty much the suspect here
I shall go to a quick meeting and see what other people have come up with
Molly, Perhaps number 3 is the prime suspect, lets see what evidence is presented by others, if anyone else can be bothered.
Nightshift worker...
Taking advantage of night and maybe love made her do so!
Z, Motive is the key, you have hit the nail on the head with Suspect 3 though, fits so far.
Conrad, Its always the gardener, which out of the list of suspects do you think is the culprit?
