Answer : Bow.

You will get 3 clues if you want, state which lines you want a hint on.

air?

Nope.

bow:D

That's half the answer - now you've got to state something else too.

Hint : Read the first line.

bow and bow

Nope.

You're three quarters there. >_>

You need to tell me the meaning of each 'bow'.

Bow 1 = Robin Hood, Bow and Arrow
Bow 2 = Bow knot as in shoelaces and ribbons
Bow 3 = Violin Bow

You've got 1 of them, but I won't tell you which.

You've got to get the two bows that fit in with the riddle!

bow as in cow
bow as in toe

sure helps saying this virtually

Let's see you try to get this.

Answer : He was a hangman, and hung his wife for commiting a crime.
Incorrect answers : Tickling.
Operating accident (surgeon).

he killed his wife by tickling or by a joke or saying something someything abdurd

ie

ah stop it your killing me
ahaha your killing me

No, he did in fact kill his wife.

hes a doctor and his wife is on the operating table and he accidently kills her

this is perfeclty logical answer

Could be, but he would still be convicted of murder, accidental or not.

Jack: I hate to be picking flies but doctors cannot be carged with murder for letting a patient die. If they were acting in a dangerous manner and weren't doing their job, they can be charged with manslaughter or murder by negligence. SO, hah, Ocean!

Forgot to mention, in the riddle, it says -

Many people saw him do it.

h€ is an exceutioner and killed his wife

this has gotta be right

Yes, well done!

He was a hangman and hung his wife because she commited a crime.

Or executioner will do. >_>

Clue 1 : The clue is inside the riddle! No need to think outside of the riddle.
