Plot hole: The plot resolution hinges on the fact that the culprit gave the illusion of the door being locked while the lock was already broken. And he did that by jamming under the door a rusty old fork, through the usage of a string. However, this appears really far-fetched to say the least; if the door was obstructed by an object under it, it would have not given way as if the lock was busted. It would have dragged, created a screeching noise and scraping the floor leaving visible marks (which considered it's a locked room mystery, would have been investigated). The person breaking in was Jack, even, who is supposed to be really perceptive and crime-savvy and not the average person.
