The King Was Murdered, Again!
The King was murdered, and you are to find the killer!
There are four suspects:
The Guard - Not a member of the Royal Court
The Courtesan - Not a member of the Royal Court
The Queen - A member of the Royal Court
The Bishop - A member of the Royal Court
There are four royal items that were stolen, and one of them is the murder weapon. Each suspect was in possession of exactly one:
The crown
The scepter
The ruby statue
The golden bowl
There are four possible locations where the murder murder took place. Each suspect was at exactly one of these locations:
The royal chamber
The armory
The theater
The dungeon
And there are four possible motives that caused the murder. Each suspect had exactly one of these motives:
Usurp for the throne.
Hide an embarrassing secret.
Bullied by the king as a child.
Free their lover from prison.
Your detectives gathered the following clues:
The bishop has never seen the ruby statue.
The scepter had the queen's finger prints all over.
The person who stole the crown did not want to free anyone from prison.

Guard: The crown was not in the armory.
Courtesan: The guard was in the dungeon.
Queen: The bishop was at the theater.
Bishop: I've never touched a golden bowl.
Your spy tells you that exactly one of them is lying, and the others are telling the truth. And the liar is the killer!
