    It is obvious that it is Derek. Since all other comments only lied about who they stated it was, since there could only be one culprit. Derek was the only one who it could be

  • Robin Sparkles

    Derek

  • Tandin

    Alan for he got mentioned 3 times

  • Dude

    Derek is correct, The54man.

    Looking at Brian’s statement if it was Charles, then Brian was lying in his first statement, which makes the second statement true. Which would mean that it was both Charles and Alan. So it can’t be Charles.

    Which means Derek was lying in his first statement, which makes the second statement true. Therefore it can’t be Alan.

    So Eric’s second statement must be false, meaning his first statement was true, therefore it was Derek.

    You are today’s winner.
