The Murder That Didn’t Add Up
Riddle:
A man was murdered Sunday morning. His wife said she was sleeping, the maid was getting the mail, the cook was cooking, gardener was gardening, butler was cleaning. Who’s the killer?
Answer:
Answer: The maid. Explanation: In most places, there’s no mail delivery on Sunday. Her alibi is impossible. Everyone else’s alibis are plausible Sunday activities. That one false detail gave her away.
