i have two riddles here to test your logical sense and whether you can think out of the box!

(a) Bob, Carole, Ted, and Alice move into a luxury condominium near East Coast Park. One evening, Bob and Carole go out for dinner at a posh restaurant. Midway through the meal, Carole senses that something is wrong at home, but Bob dismisses her worries. On returning home, the two find Alice lying dead on the floor in a pool of blood, with Ted sitting calmly on the sofa as if nothing has happened. Carole screams and sobs uncontrollably while Bob holds her in his arms until help arrives. Many neighbours say they heard Alice calling out “Help! Help!” during the brutal attack. Everyone in the condominium block knows Ted killed Alice but the police take no further action, and the Public Prosecutor does not prosecute Ted for the killing. Why?

(b) A man and his son are involved in a serious car accident. The father is killed, and the son is rushed to the emergency room. Upon arrival, the attending doctor looks at the child and gasps, “This child is my son!” Who is the doctor?

The correct answer will be updated here after you guys have submitted your answers in my comment box! Haha. I think the answers would make you knock your head and ask yourself why you havent thought of it before. Remember, your answer must be logical and you must be able to support your own answer.

UPDATED:
answers finally!
(a) Ted is a dog. How to prosecute it??
(b) The doctor is the child's mother.
