Fold one into a square and light one end, when it gets to the 3rd corner 45 mins are up

had this one earlier, i think the answer is fold one in half and one in  a quarter. half + quarter = 45 mins.

She was shot.

The six bodies one- they are all buried, just listed a hella lot. If you add them up, you just said two so-on-and-so-forth's over and over.
nope she wasnt shot, theres a list of clarifications i put up and will try to find, but no wounds, and im not sure what you mean on the second one?

4-the knife has no blood on it and there are no signs of a struggle, she was very much alive and too young to die of old age, the knife is instrumental as well, heres some more things that may make it clearer (im remembering this from years ago) she was alive before she went to bed, she closed her eyes never to open them again and died in her sleep of unnatural causes, the police found her dead with her eyes closed in bed, there was a knife laying by her that had been left there by someone other than her, (not sure if the following is part of the original riddle but trust me it can only help) she was much colder than a corpse should be for the time she had been dead, she has not been stabbed, how did she die?-all the clarifications together

5-in a private cemetery there are buried two grandmothers with their two daughters, two husbands with their two wives, two fathers with their two daughters, two mothers with their two sons, two daughters with their two mothers, two sisters with their two brothers, and yet there are only six bodies total are buried here, without any incest how can this be?

wow theres been some good riddles on here

I think I know the answer to the 2 sisters, 2 brothers one, but I gotta leave work.  I'll check later.  A simple answer could be that everyone has family.  But that's not it.

No.

There are two very different answers. A12345 is on track with one of them.

the man is wearing a mask and holding a gun.

but i cant figure out the bodies in the cemetary one. i can get it to 8, to grandmothers, each with a son and a daughter, each son marries the other grandmothers daughter, then they each have 1 daughter.

but it could be that 2 people are cremated.

nope no one is cremated, the two brothers with two sisters one seems like its giving you the most trouble, just think of every possible way two people can be siblings
