  • Mystery Puzzles #2 - Money & Poison riddle

    After death of a rich old man, his children are surprised to know that he has left all of his money to his oldest son Jacob, who loved him dearly, and ignored his other children, who hated him.

    So, the funeral is a day or two later, and the other sons and daughters have decided to kill Jacob and take his inheritance. Since his father’s death, Jacob has taken to drinking, and they know that, at the wake, he’s going to be gulping down the liquor like it was nectar of the gods. So they decide to poison the drinks. One of the other sons, John, tends bar, and gets the poison all ready.

    So Jacob comes up, crying and depressed, and orders a scotch on the rocks. John serves him one, and he chugs it down in two seconds. “Give me another.” Jacob gives him a second glass of scotch, which he also drinks in a matter of moments. The other siblings are puzzled…the poison is fast-acting; Jacob should be convulsing on the floor and retching his guts out. Finally, fifteen minutes later, a rather inebriated and very much alive Jimmy orders one last glass of scotch, but as John hands it to him, he changes his mind and leaves, sobbing. The other siblings come over to John, and wonder what’s going on. They talk about what could have gone wrong for a few minutes, and figure the poison’s harmless. So John sips the drink he poured for Jacob, and is pronounced DOA thirty minutes later.

    Why did Jacob live ? (He had no immunity to the poison, he didn’t know it was coming, and the poison was obviously deadly.)

  • Mystery Puzzles #5 - Car Thief puzzle

    A rather silly car thief stole, without knowing it, the car of the chief of police. The police immediately started an investigation and based on witness depositions, four suspects were arrested that were seen near the car at the time of the crime.

    Because the chief of police took the case very seriously, he decided to examine the suspects personally and use the new lie detector of the police station. Each suspect gave three statements during the examinations, which are listed below:

    Suspect A:

    “In high school, I was in the same class as suspect C.”
    “Suspect B has no driving license.”
    “The thief didn’t know that it was the car of the chief of police.”
    Suspect B:

    “Suspect C is the guilty one.”
    “Suspect A is not guilty.”
    “I never sat behind the wheel of a car.”
    Suspect C:

    “I never met suspect A until today.”
    “Suspect B is innocent.”
    “Suspect D is the guilty one.”
    Suspect D:

    “Suspect C is innocent.”
    “I didn’t do it.”
    “Suspect A is the guilty one.”
    With so many contradicting statements, the chief of police lost track. To make things worse, it appeared that the lie detector did not quite work yet as it should, because the machine only reported that exactly four of the twelve statements were true, but not which ones.

    Who is the car thief ?
