Since Darius claims that it wasn't Alfred and It wasn't Charles, then only Darius and Brenda are left to be suspected... then foolish Brenda shot herself in the leg by claiming that it wasn't Darius, which leaves me with no other option but to conclude that it was Brenda!!...
This doesn't make any sense

In logic, a statement is like a simple sentence.

"It wasnt Darius" is one statement.
"It was Darius" is another.

Each accuser used two statements per line.

Let (1) A negative outcome be Guity, a positive outcome Innocent and zero Can't say.
(2) It wasn't = Positive comment. It was = Negative comment. Then,

ALFRED
Deductions: One Positive, One Negative.
Conclusion: Can't Say(+1-1=0)

BRENDA
Deductions: One Positive, Zero Negative.
Conclusion: Innocent(+1)

CHARLES
Deductions: Two Positives, Zero Negative.
Conclusion: Innocent(+2)

DARIUS
Deductions: One Positive, Two Negatives
Conclusion: Guilty(+1-2=-1)
Darius is the thief.


Just as I did it.
In fact, Darius had 3 -ve

I did not read through carefully before saying Darius. The right answer is Brenda.
It is the only name that will make exactly half of the statements to be true.

@abumeinben I have tried working this....no body matches the conditions there. Statement 8, is the "wasn't" not meant to be was?



Modified: it was Brenda!! Statement 5 is wrong. Making my proof correct.

4 correct statements, 4 wrong statements

If Darius is the thief, then six of the eight statements will be true. But the condition given is that exactly four of the statements are false, so Darius cannot be the thief.

Re: Who Stole The Coke? Come In If And Only If You're A Genius. by dorox(m): 6:18pm On Jan 05, 2016

Kindly explain

There are five statement to the contrary proposition which says the person did not steal the coke. One each for Darius, Alfred and Brenda, and two for Charles. While the are three statements to the affirmative which says that the person stole the coke, of which Alfred has one and darius has two.
So if Darius is the thief, then it would be true that he stole the coke twice and it will also be true that it was not not Alfred , Brenda and Charles twice which adds up to six true.

Brenda is the thief. You can only get exactly 4 of the statements to be correct if Brenda was the culprit.

Just believe it by faith, that Alfred was the thief.

Answer, Brenda.......
Logic:
It is Alfred, 5 statements are true.
It is Brenda, 4 statements are true.
It is Charles, 3 statements are true.
It is Darius, 6 statements are true.

should I tell you that it was Brenda that stole the coke.....if you look closely...her name is in the middle with the colour RED... RED as a colour is to be known to attract an individual when focused in the middle her name appeared only once while others twice

It was Darius that stole the coke reason is that; the bible said that in the mouth of two or three a matter is established. Even in the law court Darius has two witness that testified against him of wic make him guilty.
