Patrick Maloney: The Murder Of Patrick Moloney
Judge and jury, I beg thee to charge Ms. Maloney with the murder of Patrick Maloney. Why would the perfectly stable Mary Maloney randomly decide to kill her husband? What would cause a perfectly sane woman to do such a heinous crime? As you are aware, Patrick Maloney was a well-respected member of the police force. To all who knew him he was a good man. He never had any enemies, and was very committed to his job. So how did this good man end up dead? Supposedly, Mr. Maloney was alleged of having an affair. However, Mr. Maloney is no longer around to testify to that fact. If Ms. Maloney had heard of this alleged affair, maybe that drove her to murder him. There is sufficient evidence showing that Ms. Maloney was the murderess. Number one, there

    In my opening statement, I mentioned that the murder of Mary Maloney’s husband was premeditated. Based off of my evidence and witnesses, I have now proved that statement. First degree murder has four elements: intent, deliberation, willfulness, and of course, premeditation. My first piece of evidence, the letter left by Patrick’s fiancée, shows that Mary had a reason for feeling angry with her husband. After reading the letter, she had a fair amount of time to plot the murder. This is why she handed Patrick a drink as soon as he walked into their home. She wanted him to be easier to kill and completely defenseless.…

    In Betsy’s case, after killing her former partner, she fetched water in a bucked, detergent, a sponge and cleaned everything up; the floor, the carpet and the lamp. Then she even took a bath and tidied herself but, she realized that Maurice’s body was still in the crime scene, compromising her. Quickly, she decided to put him into a silver-coloured trunk which was five feet long, three feet high, two feet wide, and its lid seemed hermetically sealing; the body fitted there and the moving-man that were going to her department wouldn’t see it and report the murder. In Mary’s case, as she had killed Patrick with a leg of lamb, she decided to offer it to the police men that were working at her home for her husband’s crime. She told Sergeant Noonan that as she had already prepared dinner but she could not have a bite, he and his men should eat it up. Besides, she said that it would have been Patrick’s desire because they were all good friends and they had treated her so kindly. Both Betsy and Mary were able to get rid of the evidence that compromised them; Betsy made Maurice’s body disappeared and Mary the leg of lamb.…
