After looking at the information and evidence laid out before us, we have came to the conclusion that Mrs. Horatio Van Bliven was a fraud. First of all, the glass was shattered from the inside.

This eliminates Samuel Schmidt from committing the crime because he could not have broke the glass from the inside.
