Benefactor (contains spoilers)
Anyone notice that the races the benefactor used? Because I only remember krogen, turian, asari, human, and salarian.

If it is SAM, then why would SAM help Ryder with finding out about Jien Garcen's death being murder and then allow the revealing of the existence of this mysterious benefactor to begin with?

First thing: I am not saying tha SAM is the Benefactor - only that it/he *can* be the Benefactor. Second thing: there is a *number* of possible reasons, more than I have time to explore...
E.g. we have at least 4 SAMs by now, and it is quite possible that "our" SAM was not involved in Jien's death. It could have been a rogue agent of Benefactor, or an agent of a different SAM. Perhaps "our" SAM is just as interested in investigating the case and understanding what happened as we are?
Another possibility: SAM was not present in Andromeda when the murder happened, though it could have been done by its/his orders. Perhaps SAM is interested in making sure that there is nothing left that could connect it/him with the case? And what is the risk? None at all. SAM can easily erase all proofs, kill all witnesses (including Ryder if need be), twist all evidence... Actually it is much riskier to wait too long, because if too many people are able to learn the truth, it will be much more difficult to work on "damage control".
