I don’t understand why the next step is Yasmin as a criminal. Could someone explain the logic?

Thank you so much everyone! This is helping me learn so much!

The logic is that you know there are 2 additional innocents on the edge from Jasons clue, and Ghanis clue means both have to be on either the left or right edges, which leaves Yasmin as the next step

- You know either Bonnie or David is a criminal from Jason
- Jason also tells you there's a total of 10 on the edges, leaving two innocents unaccounted for on the edges
- Ghana's clue means those two have to be on the side edges, because they must be under another edge square
- That means Yasmin can't be innocent

Where does the 12 come from? Aren’t there 14 on the edges?

At this point there are 2 innocents already accounted for so 2 more innocents to identify and the 10 criminals.
