Breja: I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so anyway…
We assume it was the first shot that missed, since the witnesses described a heavy thud after the second. For the longest time we couldn't locate that first bullet. Only after accidentally, but expertly, tripping over my shoelaces and landing on my back did I locate it- it was in the ceiling, clear across the room from the desk where the body was found.
Upon close examination with our state-of-the-art equipment we discovered, that the desk's bottom right drawer was open about a quarter of the way. There were fresh scratches in the wood of the drawer's inside edge. These scratches match tiny slivers of wood on the sides of the revolver handle. The window was open, but there was no sign of an intruder, and only two officers fell out of it during examination of the crime scene- our department’s best result yet. The door to the dumbwaiter was closed.
The prosecution is interested in knowing if the dumbwaiter drawer may be opened from the inside of the unit?
Wold Ms. Fox been unable to escape the box as she claims or perfectly capable of surprising the lord by opening the box from the inside?
