Solve mildly challenging puzzles to unlock the mystery.



Criminal Among Criminals


Within the confines of a men's prison cell, six criminals coexisted. In a shocking turn of events, Dan Danger (45) was found murdered in the dead of night, smothered by his own pillow. Despite signs of a struggle, the assailant's strength surpassed the victim's. The cell was secured from the outside, and all five remaining cellmates insist they were fast asleep during the incident. In this three-part mystery, can you uncover the identity of the killer?

Clue:


Each criminal was found guilty of a different charge and is serving a different length of sentence. Use the following clues to determine the name, age, crime committed, and length of sentence for each prisoner.

  • The 23-year-old is in for assault, and the person who committed burglary will be 33 when his 6-year sentence ends.

  • Rog Risker is guilty of either drug trafficking or arson.

  • Four of the criminals are the one who was sentenced for 15 years, Mick Menace, the one who committed assault, and the one who is guilty of kidnapping.

  • The one sentenced for 8 years is not Mick Menace.

  • The 44-year-old is not the drug trafficker.

  • The five prisoners are the one who committed assault, the one who is in for 16 years, Pip Peril, Rog Risker, and the drug trafficker.

  • Theo Threat is 31 years old, and the oldest among them is 46.
