I am a detective and I recently had a call from an old friend who asked me to come to his estate as he had, had a theft. When I got there he took me into his office and showed me that a painting had been stolen. When asked he said the culprit was one of three people. I asked each of them where they were when the crime took place, what they were doing and if they saw anything suspicious.
1) Bruce the garderner: W: Outside the only gate to the estate. D: Digging a flowerbed. S D: None and no-one entered or went out of the gate.
2) Lucy the cleaner: W: The dining room. D: Listening to music and cleaning. S D: None.
3) Samantha the secretary: W: Office. D: Discovered the theft and immediately phoned my friend to inform him. S Details: The window was open.
After questioning the suspects my colleague told me that on examination there were no prints on the desk, door knob, window or telephone. I said to stop investigating as I knew who did it.
Who was it and how did I know.
