5. So who, after all, stole the pepper?

- What can I say, it's truly a complicated case! - said the King.

This time, his suspicions, strangely enough, fell on the Griffin, Quasi the Turtle, and Omar. At the trial, the Griffin stated that Quasi the Turtle was innocent, and Quasi the Turtle claimed that Omar was guilty.

It turned out that no innocent person lied and no guilty person told the truth.

Who stole the pepper?

5. So who exactly stole the pepper? Suppose Griffin was guilty. This would mean that he lied in court. Consequently, Quasi Turtle is not innocent (as Griffin claimed), but guilty. But then there would be two guilty parties, although the pepper (as mentioned in the previous problem) was stolen by only one person. Therefore, Griffin is innocent. But then he told the truth in court, so Quasi Turtle is innocent. Consequently, Quasi Turtle told the truth in court: Omar is guilty.
