But, I do have some questions about the hints.

When someone says "So and so suspect has not heard or seen anything suspicious," does that mean they didn't do it? It not, what does that imply?

When someone says "So and so suspect thinks he knows who the murderer is," what is that telling me? To ask him or her about whichever suspect I think it is??

I am sort of a newbie as well, but to my understanding when they haven't heard or seen something then I beleive it means they won't give you any WE (witness evidence) but if they think they know who it is then they do have WE and will tell you if you can get it out of them. like I said im a newbie too and not 100% sure but I think thats it so I hope that helps. :)

When a townie says that a particular suspects hasn't heard or seen anything it means you don't have to bother to check for witness evidence with that person.

When a suspect thinks he knows who the murderer is, you might have a CHANCE that he will provide you witness evidence.

and, no. not having seen or heard anything does NOT mean they are innocent. It just means they don't have anything on anyone else. Also, there will be witness evidence on two people in any given case. 2 will point to the guilty party and one will point to an innocent person with a good alibi.

you might wonder why it matters to know who does and who doesn't have info,

why not just ask them all?

but when the suspect will only answer one question it becomes very handy
