Puzzle (Answer below)
There was a murder at the Italian embassy, where the new ambassador was killed by an unknown assailant with a knife. Suspects included the Ambassador’s Aide, who was looking to move up in the ranks but said he was preparing the daily briefing, the Chief of Staff who disagreed with almost every new policy who said they were fixing the embassy’s flag that had been hung upside down, and the Ambassador’s Secretary who had been rebuffed by the ambassador on many occasions that was preparing tea.

Answer
Although the Ambassador would likely already have seen the daily briefing and would have preferred an espresso, the Italian flag looks the same whether hung upside down or not, so the Chief of Staff would be the main suspect.
