HBE's situational puzzle

[His Boy Elroy]

maybe its been done before

if it has, and you saw it or heard it, dont answer


A man wakes up, makes a cup of coffee, and picks up the newspaper. The top story: A woman was murdered, police are looking for leads. The man immediately picks up the phone, calls the police, and tells them to arrest her husband.

How did he know the husband did it?

lol so weird that you post one of these i was just about too....

Anyway 1st Q....

Does the answer to this problem have anything to do with his coffee

Pure guess: <font color="white"> He killed his wife? </font>

[durron597]

was the man within 100 yards of the murder when it occurred?
if no, was the man within 1 KM of the murder when it occurred?

did the article contain a description of how the murder was committed?
if yes, if the article did not contain this description, would the man have still called?

[Cueballmania]

Oh, this is the ask questions type game. Did the man know the woman who died? Did he know her husband?

new question line:

was the husband was cheating with anyone? if yes, did the protagonist know?

[Cueballmania]

Did he communicate with him about his wife? Did he have a problem with his wife? Is there anyone who knows both of them mutually that is important?
