So if he was innocent he would've gone to the Layne's house (this is assuming he knew where she lived) and found no green pen, but instead he went to the bowling lanes and found it where they found the body, but I guess this puzzle is flawed since people call it bowling "lanes" too.

Sorry, I re-read it and YOU are correct!
" "I must have dropped my fountain pen by the front door of the lanes where we found the body."
The suspect would have heard the "Layne's" as he would have assumed the body would be at home. But he KNEW it was at the bowling alley and retrieved the pen correctly.
