Scene of the Crime

“So the perpetrator returns to the scene of the crime,” Chief Waxler folded his arms in self-satisfaction.

“What?” Officer Malone checked to see if someone was behind him.

“You,” Waxler pointed to Malone, “You’ve returned to the scene of the crime, therefore you’re guilty.”

“I went across the street to grab a coffee. I was gone for five minutes.”

“So you admit it!”

“Admit what?”

“Returning to the scene of the crime. Case closed!”

Officer Malone sighed, “We drove here together. The crime had already been committed.”

“So you returned twice!” Chief Waxler narrowed his eyes, “That means you’re double guilty!”
