When we arrived at 1.45 am on April 8th 2010 at
the Volupides house, we saw Arthur Volupides lying dead on the stairs facing up
with a wound on the back of his head. when we saw him, Arthur was still holding
a cup in his hand and was using a suit underneath his bathrobe. According to
Queenie, Arthur Volupides was coming downstairs for another drink and he
slipped and as Queenie claimed, was the cause of his death.
As we looked for further evidence, nothing was
out of place on the stairs. As a rule, when you fall down the stairs, you will
try to grab something to prevent the fall and this does not support her claim. Arthur’s
body is laying on a strange position. As a rule, when people slip down the
stairs, most of the times they would fall head first. He was also still holding
on the glass. As a rule, people will drop everything in their hand if they slip
down the stairs. In the kitchen, we also saw that the frying pan is on. As a
rule, people don’t normally cook at 1 am.
The autopsy that is conducted after we bring him
to the hospital said that Arthur died because of a wound only on his head. This
doesn’t support Queenie’s claim because when people slip down the stairs, they
would have wounds at other parts of their body.
In our opinion. Queenie Volupides was not
telling the truth because she doesn’t have enough evidence to back up her
claim. Based on the evidence that we found, we believed that Arthur didn’t die
because he slipped on the stairs. This case should be investigated further.
