The Thief 2
A thief stole a diamond from a New York auction house this morning. Detective Dan has the names of three suspects. Mr. Brewer said he spent the morning at the Metropolitan Museum of Art; Mr. Murphy said he took a cab to the Statue of Liberty; and Miss Markum said she was sightseeing from the Empire State Building. Which one does Detective Dan suspect is the thief?
Answer
Mr. Murphy, because the Statue of Liberty is on a small island, accessible by ferry not cab. Mr. Murphy's flawed alibi suggests he may be the thief.Hide Answer Show Answer
