A popular singer named Timmons laid dead in the doorway of his neighbor's apartment. The neighbor, pale and shaken, was telling the police and me how Timmons, as well as other neighbors, were aware of prowlers in the building. He went on to say he heard a suspicious sound outside his door and got his .45 automatic and shouted a warning through the closed door. The sound continued, he said, so I fired. And as the door flew open from the blast, "I saw Timmons, my friend, fall to the floor dead". That story wouldn't work. I'll explain why. In the case of the open-door murder, you recall the neighbor said the door flew open from the gunshot, revealing Timmons. No pistol shot will cause a door to open or close. Hemmings had a bad neighbor!
