Question: How did Anthony Hopkins' character get away with murder in the movie FRACTURE!?
He apparently switched guns with a police officer, but I didn't understand how he could possibly have gotten rid of the other one!. Explain in detail please!.Www@Enter-QA@Com


Answers:
How did he know Nunally would attend!?
_________________________________
When Nunally arrives and phones Crawford, he clearly identifies himself as the Hostage Negotiator!. Crawford would have known this which is why he set up a supposed hostage situation!.


Why did he not kill his wife!?
_________________
The idea is that he did check, when she was on the floor of the living room!. But then he dragged her into the library - to hide her, an essential part of the trap - and it was in the course of moving her that he undid the blockage and she was able to breathe again!. This can, in fact, happen!. It was in the original script, but later removed for reasons of economy!.

The Bullet
_________
Ballistics tests could show that it came from the same gun that Nunally used to kill himself!. Because it was the same type gun that Crawford had, it would explain how the murder weapon got out of the house!. Corroborating this is the security footage showing that Crawford was at the hotel when the cop and the wife were there, so they have a plausible explanation for how Crawford switched guns the first time

What Beachum needs to prove beyond a reasonable doubt is that Crawford shot his wife!.

It was already in evidence in the first trial that he was the only one in the house with his wife when she was shot, and nobody else came or left until the police got there!. If they had had the murder weapon they'd be all set, but they didn't have it in the original trial!.

Now they have the murder weapon and while they don't have absolute proof, they have a credible theory of how Crawford would have switched guns twice, backed up by the hotel video!. The video I saw was of his front though with the hat on it's hard to say for sure that it is him!. However, it's Crawford's height and build, and taken at a time that the cop and the wife were there!. Is it absolute proof, no!. Is all of it together enough to determine *beyond a reasonable doubt* that Crawford shot his wife, I believe a jury would say yes!.
