"A puzzle for yous all..."

My first is in biscuit but never in cake
My second's in awesome but not in great
My third is in mother but not seen in dad
My fourth is in sunny but never in sad
My fifth is a vowel found in water not creek
My sixth is found only in one day of the week
My seventh's two of three that you learn when you're young
My eighth's not in song but it's there when it's sung
My ninth's in eleven and twelve, not thirteen
My tenth is in island and river, not stream
My eleventh's in precious and secret and paste
My twelfth is in phantom and spectre and haste
My whole stalks the night in a quiet dreamlike state
With no memories the next day of being out late

ooh thats clever

Does the tape involve hearing her death, and then the tapes stops recording and goes back to abba's greatest hits,

and then he is eitehr arrests for a)owning abba's greatest hits
b) possessing an illegal copy of abba's greatest hits
c) stopping the tape which his wife couldn't have done so he must have been an integral part in her untimely demise

Lets get these out the way.

Were either of them blind?

Had either of them ever eaten human flesh?

Did she actually commit suicide, or did he make it look like suicide?

Do they hear something in the background of the tape?
Is this an audio tape or a VCR tape?
Is there just the wife on the tape?
Is it important how the wife committed suicide
Do the police arrest the husband for murder?

No

He killed her guide dog on an industrial belt sander and she lost the will to live?

Is the husband arrested for something not relating to the wife's death, but has obviously become apparent by listening to her tape?

I agree so before it does I have an easy one.

A wife commits suicide and the husband calls the police. She left a tape explaining why. After the police listened to the tape they arrested the husband. Why
