It’s a murder mystery. Can you finger the perpetrator?

A workman was killed at a construction site. The police began questioning a number of the other fellow workers. Based on past scrapes with the law, many of the following workers were considered prime suspects:

* The electrician was suspected of wiretapping once but was never charged.

* The carpenter thought he was a stud. He tried to frame another man one time.

* The glazier went to great panes to conceal his past. He still claims that he didn’t do anything, that he was framed.

* The painter had a brush with the law several years ago.

* The heating, ventilation and air conditioning contractor was known to pack heat. He was arrested once but duct the charges.

* The mason was a prime suspect because he gets stoned regularly.

* The cabinet maker is an accomplished counter fitter.

The autopsy led the police to arrest the carpenter, who subsequently confessed. Why?

Answer: The evidence against him was irrefutable. It was found that the workman, when he died, was hammered.

Case closed.
