They stepped into the front hall and called out, but there was no answer. Sam tried the front light switch, but nothing happened.
"I'll try the light at the other end of the hall," offered Sam, feeling his way along the wall. Sam flipped the switch casting light on the body of Shirley Rich sprawled across the hall floor. She had been shot in the back. Sam turned around and gasped in horror. Grabbing his stomach, he stumbled over the body of his dead girlfriend.
"This little scene makes you look rather guilty of murder," accused Shadow.
Why?

Shadow noticed that Sam only stumbled over the body on his way back. Therefore, when Sam felt his way down the hall to turn the light on, he must have known the body was on the floor, otherwise he would have tripped over it.
There's another chance. :p
well first of all feeling his way along the wall would leave tons of fingerprints and stumbling over the body (i'll assume he fell) with her being shot in the back he would have gotten blood all over himself.

he would have fell over or ran into her body while walking down the hall, unless he knew to go around or step over itQuote:

i'm not entirely sure on this one yet though - if he was feeling his way along the wall, she could be sprawled across the hall and still not against the wall he was walking up against - so maybe there is a better answer yet???
what say you Adept?
You and Zil have the right answer... Logically this would be the most obvious answer...Quote:
