From a cop’s point of view, the death of King Duncan is very peculiar. The pieces don’t fit together. Even though the chamberlains were found with bloody daggers, it doesn’t make sense that Macbeth killed the chamberlains ‘out of rage.’ Besides, the chamberlains don’t have good reason to murder the king. It wouldn’t give them power or any kind of advantage. It’s very possible that the chamberlains were framed by someone else who might actually get something out of King Duncan’s death.
Macbeth says that the chamberlains were the murderers. Although bloodied swords were found by the chamberlains, it doesn't seem that they would have much incentive to kill Duncan. Also, Macbeth says that he killed the chamberlains in his rage of the situation. One does not murder out of rage about a murder. It doesn't make sense that Macbeth would kill the chamberlains out of his own rage. The whole situation just seems kind of fishy if you ask me...
Hanna's right. I smell carp! haha. Also, if I were a cop, I would think that the murder of Duncan and then Banquo would be EXTREMELY interesting. If it wasn't Macbeth doing the kiling, it would have to be someone that wanted him to be king really bad. It doesn't make sense for it to be anyone else.
If I were a cop, I would be very suspicious of MacBeth since he became king after Duncan and we have been taking his word on the thought that the guards of Duncan were the murderers and MacBeth killed them before they could be questioned. So MacBeth was either crazily devoted to Duncan or he was trying to cover up his own fowl deed. When Banquo is killed it gives us even more reason to suspect MacBeth since Banquo was next in line for the thrown.
To me it doesn't make sense that the chamberlains would kill Duncan because there really is no reason for them to, but as for Macbeth the pieces would seem to fit better because he was the next in line to be the king of Scotland. And as for Macbeth killing the chamberlains because he was so outraged by Duncan's murder seems a little fishy. It looks more like he's trying to cover up for what he did.
