CASE ZERO
Case 261

Who is guilty?

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

Sofia: “The guilty person is one of Sofia, Max or Cleo.”
Max: “Sofia is guilty.”
Lily: “Neither Lily nor Cleo is guilty.”
Ezra: “Neither Lily nor Ezra is guilty.”
Cleo: “None of Sofia, Lily or Ezra is guilty.”
Random case
Solution: Max 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.
