#3 Ah, but what if they really killed him to make it look like they didn't kill him, and to convince everybody who thought they had killed him that they hadn't killed him, which would make everybody suspect that they had killed him, figuring that they hadn't killed him, but assuming that they had just been deceived into thinking that they had killed him, when in fact they had actually killed him and just made it look like they hadn't killed him, then told everybody that they had killed him while denying that they had killed him?
