"It was him!" Cash McDonaldson shouted at the baker as he and Detective Brown walked into the bakery, "He killed my wife."

"What!" responded the baker, as he kneaded his dough, "I’d never do such a thing. You have no right to barge in here like that! Explain yourself!"

She was dead! Caroline was bleeding from a shot in her head. I spotted a note hidden her pocket. In fact, I have it here with me." Then he smirked at the baker.

Snapped into a devil, he turned into a murderer. It was he, the baker, John. He killed her. He pulled the trigger. He delivers a box of a dozen donuts every Monday around noon. It would have been the perfect time to kill. Caroline was the only one home. Oh, how I…" Then, Detective Brown stopped him. "You are lying! Cash McDonaldson, you are lying. You killed your wife."

How did Detective Brown know Cash McDonaldson killed his wife?
