* ''Series/{{CSINY}}'': A Neo-Nazi suspect named Michael Elgers appears and has motive in not one but two, non-sequential episodes of season 5. He's an openly racist skinhead with tattoos including "White Power" across the front of his neck and a swastika on the back of his head, but he is not the killer in either episode. He gets framed in "Green Piece" where a car bomb goes off down the street from a Jewish temple, while in "Yahrzeit", his alibi for the murder of a fellow Neo-Nazi is confirmed.

** "A Deadly Game". Beckett and Castle arrest a man in connection with a murder. He manages to creep them out, telling them that in a short while they will receive a phone call from someone far above them, telling them to release him, which they will then do contritely. His stone-cold demeanor manages to send chills down the spines of a seasoned homicide detective and a mystery writer who is no stranger to death and murder. It later turns out that not only is he not the killer, he is a regular joe who is taking part in a "spycation" [=LARPing=] game, and doesn't realize that he's in a real jail being investigated for a real murder. The fact that he swaps from hard-nosed badass (he's played by Creator/MitchPileggi, who has a knack for such roles) into a nervous wreck as soon as he's informed of the gravity of his real situation is both hilarious and testimony to the actor's talents.

* ''Literature/theHike2023'': Erik often behaves in an aggressive and off-putting manner, gives other people a wide berth and he was the last known person to have seen Karin before she disappeared; Karin's father publicly accuses Erik of killing Karin. Erik seems to be following the the protagonists along the Svelle Trail and acts in a very creepy and suspicious manner towards Maggie (who resembles his girlfriend) when he encounters her alone in the woods. It turns out that Erik had nothing to do with Karin's murder and knows nothing about [[spoiler:the cocaine smuggling]] that led to her death.

* Early on in ''Literature/AGameOfThrones'', Sandor Clegane is showcased as a sociopathic {{Jerkass}} who in most fantasy stories, would be expected to be a KnightOfCerebus, or even a BigBad. This appears to be where his role in the story is headed, but his menacing appearance just distracts from the ''real'' villains in the game. The role he is foreshadowed to play is ultimately taken up by Joffrey and Gregor Clegane, and Sandor ends up becoming something of a TokenGoodTeammate on the Lannister side.

* ''Film/DoctorX'' has a whole cast full of them. In the film, police have become convinced that one of the doctors working at a certain medical academy is the [[SerialKiller "Moon Killer"]] who has been terrorizing New York for months. Naturally, every single one of the suspects has extremely strong ObviouslyEvil MadScientist energy, except for the academy's chief of staff, Dr. Xavier. [[spoiler: Due to a combination of NeverTheObviousSuspect and the movie's title, most viewers will assume that Dr. Xavier is the killer, but he's not: it was one of his weird colleagues after all, though one who had previously been written off as a suspect due to a DisabilityAlibi.]]

* VideoGame/MasterDetectiveArchivesRainCode: Case 3 features Iruka, a member of LaResistance. Unlike her pacifistic boss Shachi, she's an openly sadistic GunNut who makes her preference for violent methods vocally clear. Then Shachi turns up dead from a bullet to the head, fired from the custom gun she built him. All of these traits are vital... to ''clearing'' her for the murder: the killer placed the gun in Shachi's right hand to make it look like a suicide, but the revolver Iruka built for him was a ''left-handed'' model, so she obviously knew his dominant hand and wouldn't have made that mistake.

When he becomes a suspect, the party is quick to blame him for all the serial murders. It turns out that he ''did'' kill someone, [[JackTheRipoff but it was a copycat murder]] committed for attention.

* ''Film/LastNightInSoho'': The Silver-Haired Gentleman has an unsettlingly familiar demeanor with Ellie and she soon suspects he is Jack, Sandie's abusive pimp, in the present day. These suspicions are proven incorrect after he is (possibly fatally) wounded in a car accident and the bartender vouches for him and confirms that he is a former police officer named Lindsey, who tried to help Sandie in the past.
