The Case For The Defence

   ...Mrs. Salmon returned home. Last events shocked her and she tried to remember anything that would confirm the truthfulness of her words. Mrs. Salmon began to remember details of a killer, but nothing attended her. She decided to relax at night and suddenly the woman woke up in a cold sweat because of the thought of one very important detail. On the murderer’s face, illuminated by a street-lamp that night, clearly stood out big scar. As soon as the sun rose Mrs. Salmon rushed to the police station to meet with the officer.

   "Officer, how could I miss such an important detail? Murderer's face had a scar, a big scar."

    "Well, Mrs. Salmon, I think that we need to check this."

   The officer decided to visit the twin brothers. When he entered the house, he saw that one of the brothers quickly was gathering things in a suitcase. The officer approached, to find out the reason for his hasty departure, looked into his frightened eyes, and immediately noticed a scar on his face. The officer said the brothers were called to the interrogation again because new evidence had been surfaced in the case. Suddenly the man with the scar pushed the officer and tried to escape. But it was in vain. 

   So the man was in the dock again, face to face with Mrs. Salmon. There was nothing to deny. All the evidence was against him. The murderer confessed everything, and said he was sorry about what had happened. In spite of that punishment was inevitable, and he was convicted. So the game was up.
