Why Queenie Killed The Murder Of King Arthur
We believe that Queenie staged the murder and murdered Arthur. We arrived at the Volupedis home and found Mr. Volupedis sprawled out on the stairs, and his wife, Queenie staring in shock at him. Queenie had said that after she came back to her house a bit before one o'clock in the morning after coming back from the club and came back to him lying dead after slipping down the stairs. The autopsy concluded that Arthur had died from a head wound and had been intoxicated. The first piece of evidence we have is that the glass was still in Arthur’s hand, unbroken. First, if Arthur was intoxicated, he probably would of dropped his glass gently at the top of the stairs, because his limbs would be loose. Second, if he did manage to keep hold of the glass while tumbling down the stairs, it would be shattered or at least have a few cracks because in the position that he was in at the bottom of the stairs suggested that he would have fallen on it. …show more content…
We believe that Queenie placed the glass into Arthur’s hand after she positioned him on the stairs after murdering him. Secondly, in the evidence files, it says, “She [Queenie] left the club momentarily before one in the morning and invited a few friends to follow her home and have one more drink. The friends arrived at the Volupedis’s house about ten minutes after Queenie,” and that the photo was taken at 1:30 am by an investigator. As a rule, people walk with their friends and try to be social, substantially if they are going to one of the friend’s houses. Queenie arrived at her house 10 minutes before her friends. She would’ve tried to talk to her friends. When the investigators arrived, her face looked really

    I believe that Horace Throat commited the murder of Mr. Dusty Mantel at the Inn owned by Mrs. Eve Dropper. Although all the occupants of the Inn had it in for Dusty due to his immoral means and conniving ways, only one of them brought his life to a sudden end. Both Anita Mann, his girlfriend, and Chester Drauers were conspiring against him. She wanted out of the relationship because she was “tired of Dusty beating on her” and Drauers wanted the Tiffany Lamp because he had knowledge of its true value. Drauers told Anita that he would take care of everything and later after the auction he phoned the mob boss, Don Angelini, for a hit on Dusty. Don said it would take two days time and there would be a man. Since two days did not pass from this call and there was no other man or suspect I ruled out Drauers and Anita’s involvement in his death even though they had direct contact with his tea cup. OJ Glasse was being blackmailed by Dusty Mantel, about the second and final Will that he discovered on his dead brother’s desk. He works for the FBI as a bio-chemist and would probably have access to potassium cyanide, but he “couldn’t even kill a rat for an experiment”, not to mention there was no direct opportunity after Dusty left to change. Tiffany Glasse had been robbed of her father’s fortune by Dusty, yet, she did not seem to know about it. She did know that he had outbid her for her mothers beloved Tiffany Lamp from which she was named. Eve Dropper overheard them arguing and yelling at each other, presumably about the lamp. She wasn’t near his table before he died and she did not have the opportunity to poison Dusty. Eve dropper was my next suspect idea, but I too, ruled her out as the murderer. She had it all, motive, opportunity and Ability (to some extend). She was the reason he left the room to change and he was about to inform her about the foreclosure on the Inn. There was only one commonality with the rat poison and the tea cup: Sodium, an alkaloid. Although he…

    The food cooking on the stove may be seen as evidence of Queenie’s innocence. People could argue that she would not have had time to kill him if she was cooking. However, we do not know that he died within the ten minutes she was home. She could have killed him before she even left to the party. Also, if you look at the food you see smoke rising from it. That is an indicator of burnt food, meaning she was not paying much attention. These are two valid points for the quandary that can help prove the guiltiness of Queenie.…

    Amy LaTour was sitting at her vanity before her death and that is how she ended up facing the ceiling when she died. That means she was able to see behind her in the mirror and would’ve been able to see the murderer. She must’ve been fine with whoever was in the room which makes me believe that Celeste is the murderer. Maids usually live in the house with their employer…

    In the Slip or Trip Story, Queenie Onaled did murder her husband. She and a few of her friends previously went to a country club party. Queenie was alone with him for ten minutes before her friends arrived, which is enough time to commit a murder. Also, her and her husband, Arthur were arguing and were on bad terms, which could have caused anger to release. In the background of the picture, you can clearly see lots of pans hanging up, above the stove. After the autopsy that was given to Arthur, it showed that he suffered a wound to his head. It is well known that pans can be used as weapons and if they are, they are usually used around the area of the head. Also, his glass that was in his hand never broke, which shows that could have not caused…

    After Queenie went to the ballroom dance club she invited her friends to come to her house to house to play bingo. The text states, “They got to the house about 10 minutes after Queenie.”(Keithley) This quote shows that Queenie arrived at the house ten minutes before her friends. When her friends arrived, she told them that Joe died (Keithley). Queenie sounds suspicious because she did nothing for 10 minutes, when she should have called the police. If Joe had died from falling down the stairs, Queenie would have acted sooner. The reason why Queenie could have left early was because she had to first murder Joe before her friends showed up. During the ten minutes will Queenie was alone, she could have put the cup in…

    Given all of the evidence, we know the burglar, Louis Spanker, was not the killer. The evidence supports this claim because there is a jewelry box on Amy’s dresser and the jewelry is still in the box. If the burglar would have killed her he would have most likely taken the jewelry from the dresser. Most burglars steal items that are worth a good amount, so we now have the burglar out of the running for the murderer.…

    Ever since King Duncan’s death; turmoil, corruption and treachery have all poisoned the castle. It has corrupted my soul, it has changed my beliefs and in some regards, I have lost my faith. I am merely a servant; I am not one to judge, but I have seen and witnessed many things. It seems the presence of a servant is forgotten. That I do not have ears and eyes; that I do not see as others do. The only thing that keeps my tongue still is the love I have for my lady. I would not say I am clear on this fact, but it is in my belief that my lady assisted in the death of King Duncan. Since his death, I have watched her sleep, she has uttered strange and foul words, her actions are not normal. If any others saw her, they would say she is possessed and in my own mind, I, too, could believe that.…

    Should Macbeth murder the king? This seems to be the dilemma in the story. The three witches were the ones that allured Macbeth into the thought that he could one day be king. If Macbeth was to pull through with his wife’s plan, and murder the king, it could go one of two ways. One way, if Macbeth goes through with this, is that he would become king. Macbeth would be elated at the fact that he is king, but the plan could also end badly. Macbeth could attempt to kill the king, and if the king somehow survived, then he would be severely punished. Macbeth could also kill the king, but than have to live in regret, no longer being ingenuous. “I am settled, and bend up each corporal agent to this terrible feat” (Macbeth Act 1 Sc 7 li. 79-80). Macbeth…
