Mistaken for Murderer	comment	A major character is somehow convinced that another major character is trying to kill him/her, or has already killed someone else, regardless of how long they have known the character. In addition, a coincidental series of completely innocent accidents and happenings occur that seem to support that fear, often witnessed through a window in a direct homage/parody of the Hitchcock classic Rear Window. Often the result of Better Manhandle the Murder Weapon. If the police think that the character is guilty but their friends stand by them, then it's Clear My Name. See also Guilt by Coincidence. Expect a Mistaken Confession if it's a comedy. If the misunderstanding was deliberately engineered, it's a Frame-Up. Not to be confused with Mistaken for Own Murderer, in which a person who is disguised or shapeshifted is accused of killing their normal selves. Compare Fall Guy and Easily Condemned.

Shion immediately concludes Calli killed them and flees in a panic. Calli chases after her to try to clarify that they're not dead, only passed out from drinking too much the night before.

Granted that it was actually due to a case of Demonic Possession. This may or may not be justified in 7 Days A Skeptic. Taken as a standalone game, 7DAS appears to play this straight but 6 Days A Sacrifice implies that what we saw then might not have been what actually happened.

Mistaken for Murderer / int_20948a39	comment	In Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 4: The Trial and Execution of Guybrush Threepwood, as Guybrush starts his "Feast for the Senses" quest, he sees De Singe exit his "laboratorium" in distress, indicating that something is going on in the lab. On entering, he finds the lab in a total mess, and Morgan lying on the floor, stabbed by her own Blade of Dragotta. Before she dies, she whispers her last words as a warning, unheard by the player and misheard by Guybrush, leading him to believe that De Singe killed her. When he later confronts De Singe before tossing La Esponja Grande into the Wind Control Device while testing it, Guybrush can blame him for the atrocious act of murder, to which De Singe can imply that he didn't kill her by spouting out clues that can be helpful to the player but not to Guybrush ("Of course I ran out of my lab! There was blood all over the floor instead of being packed neatly in vials where it belongs!" and "Ooh, the Mighty Pirate™ thinks I murdered his friend! However will I live with the shame?"). It is not until both De Singe and Guybrush are killed (the former by the latter, the latter by LeChuck) or until Guybrush meets up with Morgan in the Crossroads that he realizes that the LeChuck who killed him is the same Big Bad who killed her during Guybrush's "criminal charge" trial as well. Oops.

Mistaken for Murderer / int_22d74b2e	comment	The Redwall novel Salamandastron had one of the protagonists, a squirrel named Samkim, get in trouble earlier in the book for nearly hitting a fellow Redwaller with a wayward arrow. The next morning a different Redwaller is killed by a pair of stoats that the Redwallers had taken in as they were fooling around with bow and arrows that were intended to be used in an archery contest. Samkim comes down the stairs and finds the guy, tripping over a bow as he did so. Another Redwaller then comes down the stairs and sees it, though luckily he isn't punished as the infirmary keeper vouches that Samkim had been in the infirmary the entire night and never left it.

It turns out Ned accidentally killed Maude's favorite plant while she was away at a Bible retreat (which explains the high-pitched scream of horror and Ned yelling "I'm a mur-diddly-urderer!"). Another episode had Otto's ex-wife-to-be living with the Simpsons, with Marge claiming that she's planning to murder her, leading to her being labeled insane. Turns out she was trying to kill Marge (for no reason, but it's that kind of show), but couldn't find a good shovel to bury the body with, so the whole plan fell apart.

Mistaken for Murderer / int_3eb3a36f	comment	This is what drives Kaede Kayano/Akari Yukimura's motivation for killing Koro-sensei in Assassination Classroom. Her sister Aguri was working in the lab that the future Koro-sensei was being experimented on, and when Koro-sensei broke out of containment, Akari arrived at the destroyed lab only to find him looming over her sister's corpse as well as a letter he left saying he would be teaching Aguri's class in her stead. As such, she implanted herself with tentacle cells, changed her identity to Kaede Kayano, and transferred to Class 3-E at the start of the story so she could exact revenge on the monster that seemingly killed her sister. As it turns out, Koro-sensei did not kill her sister; rather, Aguri was killed trying to calm him down, which prompted his Heel Realization and thus him taking up the role of Class 3-E's teacher as The Atoner. Koro-sensei only gets to clear this matter up with her once he removes her tentacles.

The truth of the matter is that Nadja was suffering from an ailment of the heart, and would likely die soon, so she chose to spend the night with Gowther, with whom she'd developed romantic feelings for. This would lead to Their First Time, but tragically after making love, Nadja's heart gave out. A panicked Gowther tried to transplant his Magic Heart into her to save her life, tearing open her chest to replace her weak heart. When some royal guards walked in and saw the naked doll standing over Nadja's unclothed and bloodied body, the failed attempt at a meatball surgery led the guards to assume the worst, despite Gowther's devastated pleas for Nadja to wake up. No one found out the truth behind Nadja's death, but Bartra, who was a young prince at the time, was the only one to believe that Gowther would never harm Nadja like that, having been aware of their growing relationship.

Mistaken for Murderer / int_4ba244d2	comment	Five Nights at Freddy's 2: During two of the Atari-style mini games, you'll notice a purple guy (this one is light purple) that is heavily implied to be the murderer from the backstory and thus responsible for everything. However, during another mini game, you have a chance of running into another, possibly different purple guy (this one is a slightly darker shade of purple) that stops your progress. It's somewhat hard to tell due to the graphical limitations, but the rarer purple guy has a badge, glowing white eyesnote just like the animatronics, and what appears to be a phone in his hand. The mini games, along with the animatronics being suspicious of adults, strongly implies many things, most prominently that the robots can't tell two adults apartnote and dear ol' Phone Guy is not to be trusted, but that's beside the point. This means that the animatronics think that any security guard (even the most innocent ones) is a suspect... and causes them to suffer He Who Fights Monsters in the process, as they're trying to kill the murderer. Oh, and that's not the end of it. The third one revealed that the murderer was still alive well after the first game. And since the newspapers in the first game reveal a person was convicted, this most likely means either Jeremy or the Dayguard were blamed for the murders. On the upside, the Purple Man's survival strikes out Phone Guy as a suspect. Then Sister Location blows them all out of the water with the revelation that that wasn't the Purple Guy, but his son, who the father sent to "put her back together."

This gets resolved when Hikawa learns Agito's identity and realizes that a nice guy like Shoichi could never be a cold-blooded killer. This plot was recycled in Kamen Rider 555 and Kamen Rider Kivanote All three shows had the same head writer; while Kiva handled it in near-identical fashion, Faiz labored the point for a bit too long, especially by having the resident Jerkass make Faiz look bad by periodically stealing the Faiz belt and wreaking havoc with it.

Mistaken for Murderer / int_58808436	comment	Used repeatedly in Higurashi: When They Cry due to Poor Communication Kills and delusional characters: In two different arcs Shion accuses her yakuza family (including her twin sister) of murdering her crush Satoshi. This causes her to kill multiple people. In reality Satoshi is alive, albeit in a coma for reasons unrelated to the Sonozaki clan. Shion's family had no issues with Satoshi. Satoko believes that Keiichi murdered Rika in the climax of Tatarigoroshi-hen, after Keiichi, while Satoko is absent, finds Rika's body, drops the hatchet he's carrying into her blood in shock, and then picks the hatchet back up... at which point Satoko returns. Keiichi thinks that Rena and Mion are out to kill him in Onikakushi-hen. They make threatening remarks, reference another students similar behaviour before "transferring", creepily show up at his house at night, and even try to inject him with a drug implied to be the same one used to murder Tomitake. What happens afterwards... Of course, this was all in Keiichi's head, exacerbated by an extreme case of Hate Plague. The things said by Rena and Mion were all either misunderstood or made up entirely by Keiichi's decaying sanity. Natsumi mistakes her parents for killing her grandmother, mistakes her mother for killing her father and mistakes her mom for attempting to kill her. In reality Natsumi isn't remembering the memories correctly due to having a high level of Hinamizawa Syndrome and she actually killed her entire family.

Mistaken for Murderer / int_7884ec15	comment	It happened twice in Seinfeld. When Kramer moves to Los Angeles, there's a whole story arc based on the police there mistaking him for a serial killer. Also, there's one episode where a guy who owns Seinfeld money gets his toes broken by him (acidentally), ends up in the trunk of his car (accidentally), and assumes from a conversation he hears between Jerry and Elaine that they're planning on killing a woman. In another episode, George thinks that the members of the Susan Ross Foundation think he killed Susan. He attempts to leave a tape recorder in the room to record the, unfortunately the plan backfires. In one scene after he leaves the room, it is revealed that George's theory was correct. In a reversal of the trope, Kramer spends an episode trying to emulate Da Vinci's sleep patterns only to fall deeply asleep while having sex with his girlfriend of the week who mistakes herself as his killer. He wakes up rolled in a carpet in the Hudson river after she tries to get rid of his corpse.

To be fair, he isn't the only one: many cases feature clearing someone's name before they're formally accused of stuff they didn't do. In one instance, Andre Camel, an FBI agent that worked with Conan in the previous arc, is taken in as a suspect for a hotel murder when the police find him jogging up and down the stairs (he was exercising). When everyone suspects he's the murderer due to him being bad at talking his way out of it (for example, they ask him what his job is, which he stutters over because he's not allowed to tell them he's an FBI agent), being a foreigner, and having the Face of a Thug, Conan has to call in Jodie to explain.

The unicorn, wanting to help her, tried to heal her, which required stabbing the tip of his horn into her chest- she would be wounded, but only for a moment and then his magic would heal both the wound and her illness. Unfortunately that's when her father arrived, and saw only his daughter on the ground, stabbed through the heart by a unicorn's horn, and came to the obvious conclusion that she was being murdered. He attacked the unicorn to defend her, and the two killed each other in their struggle.

A perpetually masked man who combined traits of a Mad Scientist and a Sinister Minister in a place where girls would frequently go missing without warning. Before her escape from the Ministry, Mechanika found him in a room with shelves full of the preserved body parts of many of the girls who had supposedly been "cured", and killed him in a rage. It would be many years later before Lady Mechanika would learn that Deacon Grin actually was a compassionately God-fearing (if still unsettling) doctor who cared about the girls, and that the one who actually murdered them was young Katherine de Winter, a fellow patient and budding psychopath.
