Everyone has watched a murder movie. Or seen a bank robbery on the News. Everyone has seen the botched attempts at trying to pull these off without getting caught. I am sure you all have at one point said "silly crook, that's not how you would do it!"
So, how would YOU pull off the Perfect Crime?
@Seed,
Good question, where's your answer? I'd have to think.
@Seed,
For a murder, my dad always thought the use of a very large and strong pointy icicle would work nicely to stab someone - as the murder weapon would melt leaving no trace of finger prints or evidence of a murder weapon.
People seem to get away with drowning the victim rather often. The trick is to make it seem accidental and to have a good front before friends and public.
wow linkat and edgar, you guys are hard core.
I was thinking more along the lines of putting on my cloak of invisibility and sneaking into the movies for free.
Yeah, I'll have to put some thought into that perfect crime question.
One thing I know that gets people caught is getting too greedy.
You start to take too many risky chances.
ya gotta be cool.....dig?
Hunting accident. "Oops! I thought my husband was a moose!"
Hardly anyone gets convicted of a "hunting accident" in the US.
Not that this is necessarily a perfect crime - but one I thought would work better than the usual "going postal" crimes. Instead of dragging all these firearms in and starting to shoot up the office, I'd bake some cookies or bring in bagels and cream cheese and lace them with whatever will poison them. You just place them out in the morning and the freeeloaders start digging in.
No one ever asks who brought them in - they just start chomping away. Much clearer and efficient - you'd get more victims than the shooting way.

If I had a cloak of invisibility, I wouldn't be sneaking into the movies...
