Brilliance at its finest...

December 7th-7:09pm

Since my brilliant discovery of Jerry the mouse, it took all of about 5 minutes for it to be all over the press. Naturally this gave a large opening for each of the three suspects to jump in and immediately go on the defensive. Now one could assume this would be a simple case now that Jerry is alive, however, he is in the hospital and not able to speak as of yet making my job once again, more difficult. However, not as many detectives are as clever as I and it is I who knows who the real crimnal is.

It was a quite simple case when I really started to think about it. I narrowed it down to three suspects and through careful deduction, narrowed it down to the real culprit. First suspect is of course Tom the cat. He has more than just one motive to want Jerry gone considering he spends his entire life in Jerry's shadow and attempting to eat him. However, if Tom ever really suceeded, what would he have to do with his life? The answer is nothing and this is precisely why he would never actually rid himself of Jerry, not to mention that if he wanted him gone, eating him would have been much easier and harder to find evidence. Therefore the "far from genius" cat is off the hook. Next suspect is the peculiar little mouse they call Muscles. I suspected this mouse from the beginning because he never really had an alliby and considering Jerry was a TV star and Muscles' hat was left at the crime scene, made me suspect perhaps he got Jerry out of the picture so he could move into the spotlight. This theory was foiled when I relaized a mouse that size (not even one names Muscles) could dig a hole that deep and he does not seem to have any friends so no one could have helped him dig the hole. Therefore Muscles was off the hook as well. The final suspect is Spike the Bulldog who I was certain committed the crime when I dismissed the other two as suspects. However, it was not Spike either. That large oaf would not have been able to dig a hole so deep and precise without ruining it with his "largeness" halfway through. No, this hole was created by someone with the same motives and the same build, just in a minature size.
The real criminal is none other than Tyke, Spike's son. Why he committed such a treachorous act has yet to be discovered, but all the evidence points to him: the little pawprint, perhaps a jealousy that his dad may love Jerry more, or maybe to make his dad proud that he was becoming a strong bulldog? I am sure we will be finding out shortly because the ratty, annoying newspaper lady is standing right outside my door. I see no reason to fight her anymore.
