what makes you think he was blind sir did you see a blind man on the highway that day of course not you and i both know i was miles away from here when carl died but i do have a little medical training you can tell by looking at him cast in his eyes the way he moves but don't take my word for it read a few pages of this uh will you mr morris just start anywhere would you please always pack a bulky sweater and some heavy underwear even in the spring the mountains can get pretty cold at night read that read that surely it is the most beautiful of all sports he's blind he's blind mr morris stay that's right doctor that man that you saw was blind and is blind this is daniel morris that's the man that you saw on the road monday afternoon this other man is his brother david i'm sure you can see the problems there is no way in the world that you could have assumed that this man this witness was blind unless of course you had seen this man that day that's the only way you could have known thank you you're welcome i have an eyewitness dr cayenne an eyewitness that will place you at the head of the donna driveway at 5 30 monday afternoon but the eyewitness is not mr morris the eyewitness is you [Music] we push the play button and we attached the wires here [Music] and here where i showed you those scratches preposterous nonsense now the killer knows when the record will end yes yes you demonstrated all that and when the arm comes over it will make contact first here exploding one squib and then here exploding the second but the body fell between the two shots yes sir that's where the killer has to take a very big chance [Music] the dictionary has a line here dividing it in half so that it can be balanced on the edge you see sir like this clever but too unpredictable important for the illusions sound of the body falling you've got it but impossible to die but this killer is very smart sir can he make the book fall between the two shots oh yes how triggered by what i'll show you he would have to be a genius i think so too sir now i don't mean to imply that i thought of this all by myself i mean some of the smartest people in the world are right here in this club and they help me sir they help me a lot they've done just a lot of them mr danzinger the president of the club you wouldn't call him a darkness oh wouldn't i well it was his idea the book the vibrations vibrations what are you talking about the first swim sir he really made it sound very simple when the swim goes off it produces vibrations and that knocks the book down that danzinger's a genius vibrations that network the man who conceived all this you made him out to be a bundling ass no this is what he would have done this [Applause] [Laughter] there oh my oh my gosh then somebody just took a shot at mr hayward yeah i heard now i told rojas to forget about surrounding the building because the guy that fired that shot is still in this room what what's he talking about sorry it's all right everybody it means me you isn't that right yes just as i figured that's exactly what i thought you'd say i fired the shot is that it lieutenant columbo was there a gun in this room i wouldn't say so sir no i mean would you concede there's no gun in the room yes all right let me show you something is this a bullet hole in the glass yes sir would you say it was fired at an angle calculated to hit a victim in their head here seated at the phone in this chair yes and would you say that having failed to hit the intended victim the trajectory indicates that this hole in the wall was caused by the spent bullet yes would you further concede that if this bullet proves to be from the same gun that killed harry stone that the same hand fired both shots yes then all that remains for you is to dig the bullet out of the wall and take it to ballistics for a comparison no sir i've already dug the bullet out of the wall and ballistics has already verified that it came from the same gun [Music] here's the boat [Music] here's the ballistics report no boat in the wall bullets right here [Music] it's in my handkerchief yeah there she is you see sir this afternoon when you told sergeant vernon that you were going to come in here to make some private telephone calls i was over there in the press room now this room is 6 15 and the press room is 6 616. but when you call from here it lights up over there because you installed that special three-way rotary system so i kept watching the phone for 6 15 to light up yeah it's lit up now you see that i kept waiting for that button to light up never let her i didn't know what the hell you were doing here i knew you weren't making a call and i confess i got curious and when you and your wife when you went to vote i took advantage of that opportunity to come in here and look around and i found that bullet hole in the glass door and that took me to the wall i dug this bullet out of that wall three hours before you said that somebody fired it at you three minutes ago [Music] you're under arrest [Music] at first i thought mr corbin was responsible but that didn't work out because of the nightgown business and then the next night when your wife was killed and you had that terrific alibi then it suddenly hit me you were in it together and you're trying to blame what he just and the truth is that jessup was nowhere near either house either night commissioner he wasn't huh all right how do you explain these janice caldwell's jewels i can explain it now you took him from the caldwell house you hit him and today you planted him here to incriminate mr jessup you're crazy you can't prove anything like that sergeant randall here's her you commissioner halpin says he found those jewels under your mattress that's crazy you're a liar hey i don't even live here what i can verify that he doesn't live here i live here these are my shirts that's my underwear my brother-in-law it's my nephew my niece i haven't lived there long just moved in you see the apartment was vacant for three weeks i just signed the lease you looked in the closet those were my pajamas in my bathroom the file folder the report on the desk yes sir i'll have to take responsibility for that you see i persuaded mr jessup to telephone mr caldwell knowing that caldwell would contact you i was sure that once you knew the true identity of the burglar you try and incriminate him so this morning very early just after i signed the lease i made up a new file folder on mr jessup everything was the same except this address only one person beside myself knew this address that was you sir [Music] that's all i think once your friend mr caldwell understands the situation he'll fill in some missing pieces so if mrs matthews is convicted you're next in line everything goes to you that's why you planted the gun and that's why you planted the wrapping paper and that's why you planted these paintings dale i can't believe it now but you'd like to wouldn't you get you right off the hook all right lieutenant you claim that i planted these paintings suppose you prove it can we yeah yeah with fingerprints uh-huh sorry to disappoint you lieutenant fingerprints won't help you at all my fingerprints are all over those paintings my uncle and i unwrapped them when they came back from the exhibit i told you didn't i i told you myself they're covered with my prince no we're not looking for your prince what do you remember the time that i was in your apartment and you came in with some paintings and you said that they were watercolors and you wanted to evaluate them and remember i wanted to see him and you wouldn't let me and i even touched him you touched yes my fingerprints are on those paintings now if mrs matthews is guilty how could my fingerprints get on paintings that she stole this is entrapment it's a set up that's all you you you touch those paintings just now while i wasn't looking you saw him do it didn't you you put your prints on those paintings while you were bent over watching when they were working on it he touched them you thought you just one more thing [Music] you
