In the story Slip or Trip the wife Queenie is in front of the dead husband .

She
has claim to see everything that happen upon his death. She seems more like the
murder than a alibi.
To start off she has very little behavior of seeing his husband dead. She has no
real emotion like she was expecting it to happen to him. The way she is precision is also
a dead give away. If you experiencing that happening to your husband you would be
freaking out and not putting your hand on you mouth.
Continuing is that behind them is a cooking stove. This is very suspicious
because of the fact it is almost ready from the steam. She could have use this as a
weapon by hitting him with the frying pan and moving his body with the adrenaline that
is in her body and to hide to evidence of her fingerprints and the bump of the head in
the pan.
Most suspiciously is the that everything is neat! The floors are neat the mirror is
still right side up and even the victim is neat. The robe is in place the, positions of him is
neat, not even a hair is out of place. Such as before she could have knock him out and
moved him with her adrenaline.
All the clues fit together. The lack of expression the food cooking and even the
neatness of the place. This is leading to one conclusion. That Queenie killed her
husband. I rest my case.
