Do you think the fact Maxine was adopted could be linked to her murder?

No I don’t think that had anything to do with it.

I think it's relevant or why mention it. I believe it's tied to something in the care home.

It seems very relevant to me. Deanna worked in children’s services, and Maxine was adopted so must have been in the care system - one of Deanna’s cases? This seems a possible link to the killer.

It’s a possible link to Deanna’s work life.
