Mavrik Sylvia 502 S. 5th St. Eldridge, IA 52748. May 9, 2024 Scott County Courthouse 400 W. 4th St. Davenport, IA 52801. Dear Jury Members: Mr.Bennett should not be found guilty of the murder of Mr.Adams because there is reasonable doubt. Mr.Bennett didn’t kill Mr.Adams because Mr.Bennett always has gloves on him and if he killed Mr.Adams with Rat Poison why would Mr.Bennett have traces of rat poison on his hands the only reason he had rat poison on his hands because he touched the mug and that had rat poison in it. The strongest piece of evidence that I have is that the police noted that Mr.Adams had bad eyesight and the rat poison looked the same as the sugar, so Mr.Adams could’ve grabbed the rat poison instead of the sugar. The police noted that Alfredo was the only one with the rat poison. The police also noted that Mr.Bennett had gloves and he had traces of …show more content…

So I believe the killer is Mr. Alfredo. This evidence explains my claim because it shows that Mr. Bennett is not guilty and is innocent. And it also shows that if Mr. Bennett was the killer, then he would’ve put on his gloves and wouldn’t have any traces of rat poison on his hands. Mr.Bennett is not guilty because Mr.Alfredo is the only one with access to the rat poison. There was also a towel and soap outside, next to a water hose. So someone washed their hands to get rat poison off of their hands, and Mr. Bennett said that he was NOT outside at all. So the person who killed Mr.Adams was Mr.Alfredo. The police noted in the trial that Mr.Bennett was never outside and said that Mr.Adams had bad eyesight. Then again, the only person with rat poison was the exterminator, Mr. Alfredo. I believe he might have left the rat poison next to the sugar so Mr. Adams wouldn’t be able to see the difference and grab the rat poison and drink that instead of sugar. This evidence shows that again

Mr. Bennett should not be found guilty of murder in the first degree because reasonable doubt exists. The prosecution may claim Mr. Bennett is guilty, but they are incorrect because there are multiple other possibilities, like Mr. Alferro’s fingerprints on the cup of coffee that Mr. Adams was drinking the night he died, and the fact that Mr. Adams also had very poor eyesight, and the rat poison that killed him was stored right by the sugar and creamer for coffee in the lounge cabinet.

To defend Mr. Corliss against his murder charge by using Illinois’ self-defense stature, we must prove that Mr. Corliss “reasonably believe[d] that deadly force was necessary to prevent great bodily harm to himself.” There is no real dispute that Mr. Corliss believed force was necessary because he was scared enough to have brought a gun to the party in the first place. This memorandum will discuss only the issue of showing that this belief was reasonable. As referenced In re S.M., Illinois courts consider two factors to conclude the reasonableness of the defendant’s belief that deadly force is necessary to avoid great bodily harm.

The associates of the Armstrongs all killed Ratchett, so they all had a cover story for no one to be blamed. There were clues found at the crime scene, the handkerchief with the initial “H” and the pipe, but both of these clues could have incriminated multiple people; but there was no actual proof. Poirot, the detective on the train, tried to substantiate who killed Ratchett, but there was no actual proof to pinpoint who killed him. “Are these people whose evidence we have taken speaking the truth or lying? We have no means of finding out – except such means as we can devise ourselves.
