15. A Woman Killed Her Spouse...

A woman killed her spouse,
Although never left the house.
When the police arrived they tried,
But could not find the murder weapon.

Why is this?

Solution:

The woman killed her spouse using a method that did not leave a physical weapon behind, such as poisoning or using a leg of lamb, which she later cooked and served to the police, effectively hiding the evidence.

Because the murder weapon was a leg of lamb, the wife invited the police to dinner after the husband's death to accompany her and eventually they ate the murder weapon.

Maybe an ice knife? After that she will put it into a bowl filled with boiling hot red-coloured water or something like that.
