Answers
Riddle № 1
Jack should use the shovel to make a pile of dirt under the window, climb on it, and escape from his cell.

Riddle № 3
The killer was the math teacher. According to his words, he was holding a mid-year test, but the crime happened on the first day of the school year.

Riddle № 6
John wouldn’t be able to unfreeze the window glass because it’s usually icy on the inside.
