A dead body is found at the bottom of a multi-story building. Seeing the position of the body, it is evident that the person jumped from one of the floors to commit suicide.

A homicide detective is called to look into the case. He goes to the first floor and walks into the room facing the direction in which the body was found. He opens the window in that direction and flips a coin toward the ground.

He then goes to the second floor and repeats the process. He keeps doing this until the last floor. Then, when he goes back outside, he tells the team that it was a murder, not a suicide.

How did he come to know it was a murder?

One evening, there was a murder in the home of a married couple, their son, and daughter. One of these four people murdered one of the others. One of the members of the family witnessed the crime. The other one helped the murderer.

  1. The witness and the one who helped the murderer were not of the same sex.
  2. The oldest person and the witness were not of the same sex.
  3. The youngest person and the victim were not of the same sex.
  4. The one who helped the murderer was older than the victim.
  5. The father was the oldest member of the family.
  6. The murderer was not the youngest member of the family.

Who was the murderer?

Sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ

The mother.

We know from (3) that the youngest person was not the victim, from (4) that the youngest person was not the helper, and from (6) that the youngest person was not the killer. Therefore, the youngest person can only have been the witness. There are three possible combinations:

  1. Oldest person (father): H H M
  2. Next to oldest (mother): V M H
  3. Next to youngest (son): M V V
  4. Youngest (daughter): W W W
  • H = Helper
  • V = Victim
  • M = Murderer
  • W = Witness

We can work out from (5) that the father was the oldest, and from (2) that the youngest person must have been the daughter. Therefore, the next youngest must have been the son, and the next to oldest, the mother.

Of three possibilities: the first is impossible (from (3), the youngest person and the victim were of different sexes); the third is also impossible (from (1), the witness and the helper were of different sexes). Therefore, only the second possibility holds, and the mother is the murderer.

  • The murderer is Jack's brother. They grew up together in Seattle.

Police arrived at the scene and immediately found the murderer.

Who was the murderer?

Sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ

Jeff killed Mike.

Jack is not the murderer, because he is the brother of the murderer.

Dan can't be the murderer since he ran a marathon, and the murderer recently had his leg amputated, and wouldn't be running a marathon of any magnitude that quickly.

Ben is not the murderer if he just met Jack since Jack and the murderer grew up together.

This leaves Jeff and Mike.

Since Jeff is still alive (he wants to install a new computer next week, present tense), he must be the murderer.

Mike also doesn't grow up with Jack.

It has been determined that Jack, Dan, and Jeff are all alive. Ben must also be alive since Jeff plans to install Ben's computer next week.

This means that Jeff killed Mike.
