The following would show you the transcript of an interview with Miss Wee...
I: Good morning Mrs Wee. I would like to interview you regarding Mrs Maloney in the
story: Lamb To The Slaughter.
Q1: What is your opinion of Mrs Maloney killing her husband?
Miss Wee replied: Mrs Maloney is vicious, evil and she had planned all this and what amazes me is that she used a frozen leg of lamb to hit the back of her husband's head and no one to my knowledge had used a frozen leg of lamb to kill her husband------very extraordinary way to rid of ones husband.
Q2: What is your opinion of Mrs Maloney killing her husband?
Miss Wee answered: She is very crafty. Immediately after the murder, she made her way to the supermarket to buy groceries. so that it is a perfect alibi that she was not the murder. moreover she cleverly called up the police to make a report. Being a wife of a detective, she must have been exposed to stories of crimes and how criminals cover their criminal acts to escape the law.
Q3: What punishment do you think Mary Maloney deserves?
Miss Wee said: She deserves to be hanged because it is a deliberate act. On the other hand, being a pregnant woman, the court could sentence her life imprisonment after the delivery of her child.
Last Q: What do you think is her reason for murdering her husband?
Miss Wee replied: think she senses that her husband has lost his love for her and hinting that he would provide her the means if he leaves her. She could not bear losing her husband especially when she is with a child. Rather than losing her husband to another woman, she heartlessly, in blind a blind rage, bludgeoned her husband with the leg of a lamb.
