Steph to go down for Anthony’s murder after gun move? This fan theory thinks so
Steph won’t give up on finding out the truth
In last night’s episode of Emmerdale (March 11) Steph found Caleb’s gun during her search for Anthony. And now fans fear that one discovery could result in a bad outcome for Steph.
Ever since Anthony disappeared, Steph has been on the hunt for him. And she doesn’t seem to be put off by anything. Every scene she is in seems to be connected to her looking for Anthony. But so far this week, she has gotten extremely close to the truth.
Despite how adamant Steph is to find him, Caleb and Ruby are keen to keep the truth a secret. However, last night Steph found the gun Caleb was going to kill him with. So how will they get out of that one? Well, a new fan theory predicts that Steph just put herself right in the frame.
What happened to Anthony?
Viewers know that Anthony was murdered by his daughter Ruby, after he sexually assaulted her when she was young.
But she isn’t the only one involved in the murder cover-up. Aaron initially believed he was the one who took the final punch on Anthony, and so John covered it up. Then Caleb was preparing to cover-up for Ruby. On top of that now Cain, Chas and Moira are all in on it. So if the truth comes out, a lot of people will be facing the consequences.
It was only recently that John even told them all where Anthony’s body is (if you believe him). And Ruby has been taking trips out there quite a lot. So much so that Steph even followed her one day.
Despite being told by Ross that she should quit looking, Steph remained determined. And it paid off for her as she entered the correct code for the safe and found the gun.
Emmerdale Steph in the frame for the murder?
But fans believe her lifting the gun out without any gloves may actually result in her becoming the number one suspect in the case.
One fan took to X to propose the theory. They wrote: “Steph will now be in the frame for murder now that she has picked up the gun. Stupid woman.”
While it would be unlikely she would go down for murder if no body is found. And if they find Anthony they should be able to determine he wasn’t shot to death.
However, if she brings the gun straight to the police, her finger prints are all over it. So while they have nothing else to go on, Steph may just make herself look very guilty.
She may argue that she is the one who has been looking for him, and constantly going to the police to report him missing. But perhaps it could be thrown back that all along she was the one who murdered him.
Perhaps she should make the decision to not go to the police about her parents after all…
