The case of the bent key

Salt/water on the table + humid night = lots of overnight corrosion (it can happen that quickly)

Actually, Spock said that, during one of his time-traveling sojourns. (It was in that Star Trek re-boot movie a couple years ago.) I’m thinking that Sherlock Holmes must have heard that and picked up on it.

Actually, the OP’s title does sound like a Sherlock Holmes story, doesn’t it?

Yes, I have been watching “Elementary” a lot recently, but I think Jonathon Creek would be the best bet to solve this.

So by Sherlocks logic the truth must be that I bent the key removing it from the lock,
no ghosts, no Yuri Gellor, no supernatural forces, just plain old garden variaty human error.

To be fair, its likely to be the case. Unless you think your wife did it.
