CASE ZERO
Case 243

Who is guilty?

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

Ruby: “Jade is innocent.”
Theo: “Neither Ruby nor Finn is guilty.”
Mila: “None of Theo, Mila or Jade is guilty.”
Finn: “Neither Ruby nor Theo is guilty.”
Jade: “The guilty person is either Mila or Jade.”
Random case
Solution: Mila 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.
