The Case of the Missing Body Snatcher

An updated version of Larry West's "It's Elementary" presented by Jim "The Irish Whodunit" Flanigan and KEE-WEST PRODUCTIONS

A spectator cuts a deck into two piles. The assistant takes one of the stacks, shuffles it and freely chooses a card. Meanwhile, the magician pulls the top card off the other stack to show it is dated London 1872. He also introduces two London bobbies who he says will try to crack the case. The chosen card is placed on the stack and the rest of the cards cover it. With a snap of the fingers the two bobbies snatch a card but it turns out to be the elusive Jack the Ripper (a jack of clubs). Sherlock Holmes and his faithful companion Dr. Watson are brought in to unravel the mystery. They immediately nab the missing card between them! Another case is solved.
