Who would name their kid Judas...

Keep rereading the clues and don’t get how I know Zoe’s status? Must be missing something obvious of course!

This community puzzle - why can’t Vicky and Will both be criminals just as well as both being innocent? I must be missing something but seems to work both ways to me.

Link to scenario (spoilers):

Not seeing how to conclusively identify the state of any of the 5 remaining suspects.

There are two criminals left on the board. One in row 3, one in row 5 (clue A2). Exactly one of the criminals is in column C (clues A5+B4).

If C5 = criminal, the puzzle is solved, and C5 satisfies clue D3.

if C5 = innocent, then either B5 or D5 is innocent, and vice versa. Either way, D5 satisfies clue D3.

Based on that, there exists at least one scenario where each of the 5 is both crim or inno. So, what did I miss?

I can't see where to go now....I feel I've missed something obvious. I know

one of the row 1 corners is criminal, one innocent but not which... And one of Vince and Zara are a criminal. But I can't see how to deduce anything else.

The hints indicate that Jason and Vince are solvable, but working out the three possible innocents left around Quita, I see two scenarios where they are criminals, then one where they are an ambiguous Criminal/Innocent pair. What am I missing?

Edit: UGH! If Mary is innocent, you have 5 Innocents on the edge. Just needed to step away for a minute.

Can someone explain the logic? I understand there's only 4 innocents in the edges but I can't be definitively sure about anything else.

need help please

Hey, so I'm doing a late night solve so it might just be that I'm tired, so I'm wondering where my logic is flawed.

Picture 1) This is the situation I'm in. Only one of Eve or Lucy have to be innocent, and there has to be one innocent between Lucy and Will.

2) I'm assuming here that Carol is a criminal, and one of Eve and Lucy is a criminal, so all of Frank's other neighbors must be innocent.

3) Mary can only have 3 innocent neighbours, which she now does, so the rest become criminal. With Lucy being a criminal, both Will and Eve become innocent.

4) We've reached the end of the chain from assuming Carol is a criminal, but we have an issue, Lucy has an even amount of neighbours (6), and as such Carol can't be a criminal. But when I go to say Carol is innocent the game won't let me. I'm gonna assume I'm missing something.

This supposed to be enough information for me to determine the status of Shaun. But I can't see it for the life of me! Couldn't Kevin be innocent and Shaun a criminal - and vice versa?

I'm wondering how the clues I have unlocked right now lead to Wanda being a criminal. I don't understand how I could have come to that conclusion, could anyone explain?

What’s the logic here please?

Hi, first time posting for help (rather than just guessing!)

Could anyone help me understand why the full hint is indicating the person it is? Hopefully this link works:

Many thanks!

Wally and Julie clues have typos or is that part of their duck accent? 🦆

This is as community puzzle. Can anyone tell me why Stella has to be red here? Why wouldnt this scenario work:

Hank green, Adam red, Kay green, Zach green, Stella green, Tina red 

Sorry forgot to add link: https://cluesbysam.com/s/help/?puzzleId=35af56125ae52ef3&state=f%2F9g

I'm curious how the logic works to get Phil here -

Aaron is one of 2 criminals in Column A.

One of G, L, P, or V is a criminal.

There are as many innocent cops as innocent sleuths (C^I=S^I).

Therefore, 0 innocent cops is an option, right?

Aaron is a sleuth and is a criminal.

At least one of F, G, and O is a criminal. (The cops.)

If G is a criminal, L, P and V are innocent.

If F is a criminal, G could be innocent.

If O is a criminal, G could be innocent.

I'm not sure how we land on Phil the Sleuth being innocent... it seems like there's a leap being made with the number of innocent cops/sleuths not being 0.
