Decoded message: ''Can you BOND these initials when she stops singing about the falling sky? ''Decoded using a vignere cipher.

Bond was capitalized, it had something to do with James Bond. The new James Bond movie is called Skyfall, and the theme song is sung by Adele. So I checked up the lyrics, and took the initials of the suspects and tried to find which chorus had their initials sung first. Sylvia Aski fit these requirements, and is thus the killer.

The hatchet was the only weapon that wasn't a knife or a blunt object. That's what Sam was killed with.

Then I took that odd map, and placed it on top of the second map (they were both the same size so I figured they had to be related somehow). The "x" landed on the hallway - which is where Sam was killed.

Sooo...
 * Who - Sylvia Aski
 * What Weapon - Hatchet
 * Why - Because Sam fired her and left her unemployed
 * When - 4:10 (in the attic, the furniture was rearranged to represent the time. The top half of the attic has 4 couches, the bottom has 2. On a real clock, this would represent 4:10)
 * How did they get in - Sylvia had a key from her days of working there as a maid
 * Where is the room - Hallway
