A murder has occurred at the Johnson’s mansion and Earl Johnson was found dead in the basement. The following are transcripts between the investigator and suspects.

Investigator:

“The murder took place around 8:30 p.m. last night. Where were you all during that time?”

“I was cooking Mr. Johnson’s favorite meal; it was his birthday.”

Ms. Johnson:

Maid (Ms. Paddington):
