A terrible crime has been committed and the police round up the usual suspects. During the interrogation of the four men the following accusations and statements are made:

Anderson said "Brimmers did it."
Brimmers said "Dodge did it."
Carter said "I didn't do it."
Dodge said "Brimmers lied when he said I did it."

If only one of the four men was untruthful, which man committed the crime?

This seemed very easy.

Anderson and Brimmers contradict each other so one of them is a liar.

Dodge is therefore telling the truth when he says Brimmer is lying and Anderson is telling the truth so Brimmers is the liar and committed the crime.
