Killing Paul Dudden Essay

The Ellis’ family household is stunned to find a man named Paul Dudden was killed with a knife from a dissection kit behind a screen in the their house. Mrs.Pettigrew murdered Paul Dudden with a stolen knife from Wilfred’s dissection kit behind a screen in the Ellis’ house.
