because the doctor is looking over the woman checking to c if she's dead, the engineer is the woman, and the lawyer is the one who shot her

Cos John is a guy's name and the doctor and the engineer are both women. The lawyer is the only dude there.

The lawyer has a name tag on?
The woman has Doctorate in Engineering?
The gun has "Property of Smith Law Offices" chiseled into the side of it?
The Doctor and the Engineer, neither one of them has any arms?

The enginner built the gun the doctor was sleeping with the woman and the lawyer was the angry husband. Arrest them all and let the officer have the woman.

uh-oh. Now you got me thinking....
Still thinking....
Ok, I'm going to guess that if it was someone other than the lawyer who did it, either the lawyer would be already trying to defend the guy or that they would have shot the lawyer.

I am just guessing, but the Policeman knew the lawyer, and knew his name was "John". . .???
