Interviews with Suspects (2)

HENRY

Me: I trust you that Jackie was going through your desk, but tell me, how can I trust that she was the one who took the gun and killed Linnet. Henry: Well, I suppose that you could ask her questions about the gun with incorrect facts, and when she corrects you then you know that she had seen the gun before. Isn't that a good idea? Me: Henry, that sounds like a very good idea, but how do I know that you aren't telling me that so that you can get off of the murder for free? Henry: I loved Linnet more than anything, and I wouldn't do anything to ever hurt her. She meant the world to me, and all I want right now is for you to catch her killer and bring peace to my soul. Me: I will do my best.

JACKIE

Me: Jackie, you went over to Henry's house and reportedly went rummaging around in his desk. Now, we think that you were looking for his hidden department in the desk. Jackie: I didn't know that there was even a secret compartment in Henry's desk. It was just an old hickory desk that looked like it was one hundred years old. There couldn't have been any kind of secret compartment with a gun. Me: I didn't tell you what kind of desk it was or that it held a gun. How did you know what was in the desk or what kind it was? Jackie: Well, I did go around his desk and that is how I knew what kind it was, and I suspected that Henry had a gun. I didn't find anything in the desk, much less a gun, so I left without anything. Me: Okay, but the pearled-hand gun was found at the crime scene without fingerprints because the killer was wearing gloves. Can you explain this? Jackie: First of all, Henry owned a plain gun, and the killer was probably smart to wear gloves. Did you find any shoeprints? Me: Yes, we did find some men's size 11 shoe prints. Jackie: That's what size that Henry wears! It must have been him! Why would Henry kill Linnet? <span style="font-family: 'pea fonts','pea jane';">Me: Well Jackie, the real killer here is...
