Rich Woman Murdered

On October 14th in London, England at around 10:00 at night, Ms. Emily French was murdered. Ms. French, 56, was found dead by her housekeeper at her house in Hampstead. The doctors believe that she was struck in the head with an object. However, it seems as if the killer made it look like a robbery because the window was broken. According to the housekeeper the only prime suspect is Mr. Leonard Vole. He was a very close friend of Ms. Emily French. The reason that he is the only suspect was that Ms.Janet Mackenzie; the housekeeper, overheard voices and one of them was recognized as Mr. Vole’s. She is certain that it was Mr. Vole that was there with Ms.French. 

Mr. Vole states that he didn’t do the crime, but there are no eyewitnesses that saw him go into his apartment at that time. The only alibi is his wife Romaine, a foreigner. She says that he was at their house at nine –thirty at night. But, she didn’t look convincincing to the police. Now, Mr. Vole is under investigation for the murder of Ms.Emily French.

Also, there was the help of his wife, Mrs.Romaine Heilger, who lied to have her love, Leonard, free from prison. Although she committed perjury for her loved one she didn’t care. After the trial was over, a young girl approached Mr.Vole and Ms.Heilger.She claimed to be "Leonard’s girl."With surprise, Romaine asked Leonard if it was true. Leonard told her that it was true. That was the biggest mistake that Leonard Vole made. This is caused him his death. Romaine picked up the knife that was used as evidence and stabbed Leonard. She said that she would go to jail for the murder of her love one. If Romaine would have just left him alone nothing bad could happen. At least she couldn’t go to jail for a long time.
