She seems to be of the firm opinion that he would have not committed the brutal murders and was framed by someone for hiding his own crime. Candy even believes that the killer has contacts with men of higher status in Maine and that is the reason why he was successful in framing the local handyman. But, she seems very much determined not to let the handyman suffer for the crimes of someone else. She makes plans to investigate the case on her own so that she could find some clues for the innocence of the local handyman.
