On November 15, 2017, Horace Verbermockle was on the floor of his bathroom unconscious. His wife Minnie told the doctor, “My husband had a fall and he’s lying unconscious on the bathroom floor. I think he must have been taking a shower and slipped on a cake of soap. I did not move him. I threw a blanket over him and called you immediately. When the doctor arrived he check his body and said he died to a hit to the back of his skull. After the doctor examined the body he noticed the scene of the so called accident and called an investigator. After the investigator looked of the scene he can conclude that Minnie Verbermockle was the reason for his death. Another piece of evidence would have to be the high heel footprints in the shower.

Usually when people are done taking a shower or even done with soap they put it back on the shelf. Minnie must have walked in the shower and got the soap to place it on the floor as if he slipped on it. Some more evidence would have to be the hers towel that is used on the rack. The use for a towel is to either dry off your body or your hands. Although the she could have used the towel for different reasons. One reason the towel is messed up or used is because she just got out of the shower herself and dried off with it. The other reason it’s messed up is because she used it to wipe off any fingerprints from something she could have used to hit Horace.
Although Minnie could have murdered Horace, some evidence that he actually slipped is the broken cologne bottle. After his shower he might have forgot to put the soap back on the shelf and it fell out of the shower. Once he stepped out he slipped on the cake of soap and hit his head on the floor hard enough to kill him. When he slipped the kick of his legs could have knocked the sink and tipped the bottle of cologne over onto the
Victim Herbert sustained approximate two inch scratches on her right elbow due to being pushed to the ground by Suspect Chuldzhyan.
We were presented with many facts that all pointed to Mr. Washburn as the murder. In the house all of the entrances were thoroughly inspected by authorities, and they found no sign of ransacking. “[They] examined all the locking mechanisms, all the doors and windows. In [their] opinion there was no evidence of any forced entry” (P.81). When police looked for fingerprints, “They were all of the Washburn family and the maid” (P.81). There was no trace of an outside party; somebody usually in the Washburn house committed the murder. While in the living room, an officer found a drop of blood. The evidence technician was called the next night to run some tests. “He sprayed the living room carpet with luminol. It is a luminous spray, and when it comes in contact with blood it illuminates” (P.82). To both men’s surprise the whole living room was illuminating. After spraying further the men found a trail from the living room through the kitchen to the garage. In the closet the men found a wet mop, which was tested for blood and also came back positive. Somebody tried to clean his or her bloody mess, and try to save himself. The physical evidence proves the killer was somebody who was familiar to the Washburn household.
The blood, hair, and shoe print found at the crime scene were all Anna’s, making it very unlikely someone was there with her when she died. Also, at the scene there was no signs of struggle such as bloody handprints on furniture, or blood trails which would make it less likely to be a homicide. I believe Anna accidentally died by falling down and hitting her head on the table since the table was 41cm tall and had blood on it. The blood spatters on the floor were 10mm, which is the size they make when dropped from 40cm. Once Anna hit the floor, I believe she passed out due to the lack of blood and impact of hitting the floor, later dying of blood loss. I came to this conclusion because accidental is the most reasonable manner of death. There is no struggle, and almost all of the evidence was related to Anna. Also, the table being the cause of her death makes a lot of sense. There is blood on the table and the blood drops fell from the same height as the
The first piece of evidence that led to this theory was ice tray that was located at the crime scene. Due to the chromatography paper which was tested in Forensic Lab 7, it was revealed that the ice tray was poisoned by the one and only Beverly Hilis. In the Forensic Report it states, “The ph in the ice water was 9”(Forensic Report). This is significant, because this was the exact same ice tray Max used in his drink. The only person that was able to poison Max at the crime scene was Beverly. This is important, given the fact that the chromatography tests results showed that the ice tray was poisoned, Beverly could have made the poison because she is use to performing experimental things especially being a Chemist. Another piece of evidence that led to suspicion was Dez’s towel which was found at the crime scene. In the Preliminary Report it states,“ I took my dog down to the beach for a walk around noon”(Preliminary Report). If Dez was not near the beach house during the time of the murder then it raises the suspicion of why his towel was located at the crime scene. In addition to Dez’s towel being at the crime scene there was also the smell of cologne on the towel. In Forensic Lab 4, after testing out each of our suspects (Dez, Beverly, Chloe, and Ray) cologne we concluded that the cologne does match Dez. Due to the Forensic Report it stated, “The smell that
Two detectives were assigned to the case: Harry Hanson and Finis Brown. [2] When they and the police arrived at the crime scene, it was already swarming with people, gawkers and reporters. The entire situation was out of hand and crowded, everyone trampling all over any hopes for good evidence. [2] One thing they did report finding was a nearby cement block with watery blood on it, tire tracks and a heel print on the ground. There was dew under the body so they knew it had been set there just after 2 a.m. when temperatures dropped to 38 degrees.
The argument structure of the text is well orginized and very clear to understan. It contains lots of logical reasoning which you can see later in history really helps African-Americans become equal in society. The argument was also very well supported and gave lots og good reasoning to what and why they wanted that. Thomas Jerffersons quote "We hold these truthes to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness." This quote later helps the freedom of slaves and them becoming equal human beings in society and are able to vote and have all the same right as white people and also means no more segragation.
On Thanksgiving evening, November 27, 1992, Sergeant Kenneth Mathison and his wife Yvonne drive their 1988 tan Ford van along Route 131 in Hilo, Hawaii. The rain is pouring down and before he knows it, Kenneth Mathison is awaiting police assistance as he cradles his wife’s dead body in the back of their van. Mathison, a sergeant of 25 years with the Hilo Police Department was allegedly informing his wife, a maternity nursing professional at the Hilo Medical Center, that he was being investigated in his second paternity suit. According to Mathison, when Yvonne heard the news, she jumped from the passenger side of the van. While he was looking for her in the blinding rain, Mathison purportedly ran over his wife. He then carried the body into the van and secured it with yellow rope in the back before attempting to find help. Will the forensic evidence support Mathison’s account of that fateful evening?

Throughout the novel Grendel by John Gardner more than one philosophy is brought to Grendel’s consideration. Confused and lonely, Grendel’s inner conflict is not understanding what the meaning of life is. Grendel does not know whether he is supposed to believe the Shaper and priest’s philosophy of vision and purpose or to believe the dragon’s philosophy that there is no meaning to life.
I could probably go on and on forever looking for minute details that point fingers
This morning October 8th 1965 at about 5:13 am the body of Bob Sheldon was found lying next to the park fountain he was seen to be in a pool of blood. His body had a single stab wound in his back which had pierced his heart, killing him instantly. Supposed eye witnesses say that a small boy who was a member of the "Greaser Gang" attacked and killed Bob and intended to kill the rest of them. Cherry Valance claims that she was walking with Johnny and Ponyboy after the movies when Bob approached them in his car and threatened the two them. Be on the lookout for the two boys with the description of one that has long light-brown hair, green eyes, and is about five feet tall and another has long jet-black hair, large black eyes, and is about four feet six inches. The first one is considered to be Ponyboy and the second one is considered to be Johnny. The two are now on the run they were last seen at a party with Dally. Investigators report that Dally says he has no idea where these two are but he thinks that they are going to Mexico. A woman was taking a walk through the park and discovered the bloody corpse she said “I was hesitant at first because I thought they were watching me, but I gained some courage and called 911” the friends that were their helping Bob bully the 2 said they were there during the homicide, but decided not to call the police because they were drunk and they were scared after seeing him dead. They said, the murderer was a 16 year old boy named Johnny Cade.
After going through the trial together as a class, I do not believe Minnie is guilty. As it says reading this story Minnie was too small to commit a murder like this. Going through the evidence they had and putting our thoughts together as a class, I found there is not enough evidence to make Minnie guilty. Minnie went through a lot of things with her husband being a farmer, but that does not mean she would have to commit a murder.
...tchen, and the knot that was used for her quilt. I am sympathetic to Minnie being abused by her husband, but I still think that murder was not the answer to her problems.
She lives with two old women, her sick mother and her “sallow, unflagging” aunt, and Minnie’s days are typically filled with nothing more than eating, napping, and going to shops in town to meet with other women haggling over prices for the fun of it (173). Minnie does not even have genuine friendships to enliven her “idle and empty” or dry and dusty days (175). Instead of establishing a female camaraderie between characters, Faulkner portrays relations between women as marked by tension and dissimulation; “one of those bitter inexplicable (to the man mind) amicable enmities which occur between women” (156, Absalom, Absalom!). As Minnie’s presumed friends during girlhood become women, they take pleasure in the fact that Minnie’s transition to womanhood marks the end of her days as a social butterfly; Faulkner calls it the pleasure of “retaliation” (174). The neighbors she visits on Christmas, women “friends” most likely, revel in the opportunity to tell her of how well her former love-interest is doing without her in Memphis, “watching with bright, secret eyes her haggard bright face” (175). When Minnie is having a fit of uncontrollable laughter at the end, the women she is with act solicitous and kind, smoothing her hair and saying “poor girl” to her, but this is shown to be dissimulation—they smooth her hair, not to comfort her, but to look for signs of graying, and between the expressions of compassion spoken in Minnie’s hearing, they speculate furtively over the veracity of her claim (182).
