A man was found murdered on Sunday morning. His wife immediately called the police. The police questioned the wife and staff and got these alibis:
The Wife said she was sleeping.
The Cook was cooking breakfast.
The Gardener was picking vegetables.
The Maid was getting the mail.
The Butler was cleaning the closet.
The police instantly arrested the murderer. Who did it and how did they know?

It was the Maid. She said she was getting the mail. There is no mail on Sunday!

No mail is delivered on Sunday.
However, that only means that the maid's alibi is faulty, it doesn't prove that she murdered him.
For e.g she could have been getting a boob-job done and was too embarassed to tell.

It was the wife. The wife always does it. All other alibis are meaningless. Everyone knows the wife did it!
