CASE ZERO
Case 049

Who is guilty?

Exactly one suspect is guilty. The guilty suspect lies. Every innocent suspect tells the truth.

Maya: “None of Lena, Owen or Iris is guilty.”
Noah: “Noah is innocent.”
Lena: “The guilty person is one of Noah, Owen or Iris.”
Owen: “The guilty person is one of Noah, Lena or Iris.”
Iris: “Noah is guilty.”
Random case
Solution: Noah is guilty. Testing each possible culprit leaves this as the only assignment where the culprit's statement is false and all four innocent statements are true.
