Age: 62 Height: 6' 1" Notes: The Professor is a well repected pillar of the community. He is passionate about his work and has a fiery temper. He is married and has two grown-up children. Alibi: The Professor says he was having dinner with his wife and then went to bed when the murder had supposedly taken place. Statement: Hello, I'm Professor Arthur Highbury. I'm 62 years old and currently teach Chemistry at Oxford University. Now can you just clarify why you've got me here? What have people been saying about me? You can't just bring me in here on a whim you know. I've got no connection with this Marilyn girl, I didn't even teach her. Obviously I feel terrible for her family, it's always a great shame when a young person dies and I am led to believe she was a very talented individual but I've got no place here. I am a busy man, and my wife is waiting. We're scheduled to have luncheon with some very important people. Look, all I know is she was the roommate of one of my most gifted students, Rebecca. From what I glean from her Ms Spencer was a bit of a user and she liked to get her own way. But like I said it's not my place to say as I hardly knew the girl. Oh and there was that thing in the papers recently about her brother Carl turning up out of the blue. Apparently he's the bastard lovechild of her father Lord Spencer. He claimed the late honourable Spencer had a rather grotty affair with his maid. Not a story I'd subscribe to. The deluded ramblings of that imbecile must have wreaked a terrible toll on the wellbeing of that poor girl. If you're speaking of murder you should be interrogating that boyfriend of hers, Guy. He's the kind of self-centred cretin that would carry out such a crime. He's definitely got the strength to do it. You're wasting your time with me. |
