Crime Investigation
Investigated by Anastasiya Holmes, 11b

Hello. I am a police detective and I have investigated the case of Alison McCollister’s murder. She was found yesterday evening in her flat with a knife sticking out of her head. Steve McCollister –multimillionaire - was her father. Malia McCollister was her step mother. Alison lived alone but once a week (on Tuesday) her maid Becca Fry came to clean her flat.
When police found the body, first of all I investigated the crime scene and searched her flat. No foot prints or finger prints were found because it was Tuesday (the day when the maid had already cleaned the victim’s house).

1. I suspect Becca Fry because she is likely to have been the last person who was in the victim’s house before her death.
2. I suspect Malia McCollister because she has a motive. She wanted to get all Steve McCollister’s money after his death.
3. I don’t suspect Steve McCollister because he was a loving father. He loved his daughter and supported her during all her life. He didn’t have a motive to kill his daughter.

Then I questioned the suspects.
1. Becca Fry claimed that in the evening she had simply cleaned Alison’s house and after work she called for a taxi and went home.
2. Malia McCollister claimed that she was watching TV with her husband and he can prove this information. It was incontestable alibi.
That is why Becca Fry was the main suspect. The most suspicious fact was that poor maid after doing that badly paid job called for TAXI. On video cameras record I saw Becca Fry leave the house and throw white gloves into the rubbish bin and then went home. The pair of white silicon gloves covered with blood was found. The blood on the gloves belonged to Alison’s McCollister. I found finger prints of Becca inside.
Becca was arrested and was found guilty. She was sentenced to 10 years in prison. Only in prison Becca Fry confessed. She told that Malia McCollister had promised an enormous sum of money ($10 000) for killing Alison McCollister. As Steve McCollister was very old and ill he bequeathed all his capital to her daughter. Malia couldn’t let it happen. So she decided to kill Alison using someone’s hands. Malia was sentenced to 8 years in prison as she organized the murder. After Steve McCollister’s death all his capital has become the property of a charity organization.
