According to what I’ve read, I’ve concluded that the criminal could have been matthew farmer, the is due to the fact that his family was struggling during the time and because during his interview he seemed hesitant and nervous, plus he had access to the shop, and keeps changing his story, this source would be primary. The least reliable source would be the photograph, this is because the date on it was 2010, and there was no cameras in 1755, therefore this source is secondary.
