1. Why couldn't Stapleton be arrested after Selden's
death?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Stapleton could not be arrested after Selden's death as Watson and Holmes had no proof against him. They had no proof which could justify Stapleton being the culprit. So they had no option but to let him go.

Hope it helps you :-)

Answer 2

Answer:

Stapleton couldn't be arrested after Selden's death because he had used a hound to commit the murders. Watson and Holmes had heard the hound but had never seen it. Hence they had no proof. So it wouldn't be possible to prove anything against Stapleton.
