It did actually happen. I've just changed a couple of details and left out names. It was a multiple murder that took place near Maldon in essex in 1985.
Just one more question if I may? If the murderer was trying to give himself an alibi was there any way that engineers could tell at what time the phone call was made?
I know they seem like stupid questions. But someone suggested this scenario and I' trying to prove that such a thing was not possible.

You know, I forgot the most important questions of all.
(1) Could an engineer tell if a call was in fact made that morning?
(2) Could they tell the duration of that call?
There must have been some way of recording the time of the call in order for the customer to be billed? Or did they work out the bill in some other way in 1985?
