Lance Amano

Lance Amano was the son of Ernest Amano and the victim of an apparent kidnapping.

Background
Lance is rich as his father is rich but he would still spend more than he should and in doing so he gained multiple large debts with Viola Cadaverini of Tender Lender. He planned a fake kidnapping for money along with Lauren Paups and Oliver Deacons, just like Dahlia Hawthorne, Terry Fawles and Valerie Hawthorne did. Deacons betrayed them during the plan and Amano ended up shooting him. He then kidnapped Edgeworth to make him assume the identity of Oliver Deacons. This was so that he could assume Deacon's identity and pin the murder of Deacons on Lauren Paups.
