The intended meaning is pretty obvious, and explicitly laid it in the second paragraph.

Is it? As a native English speaker, the only thing that was immediately obvious (to me) from the title was that commit != getting away with.

If I ever decide to read TFA (highly unlikely), I'm sure I'll notice that part. Thanks for giving me the heads up though.

Locked room murder is a detective genre trope in all kinds of shows, books, and movies. The goal is of course to get away with it.
