Any doctor in Illinois may write a hundred prescriptions for 'medicinal whiskey' every three months. One doctor at the Velvet Door has written eleven thousand since Easter, and every one of her patients seems to be sitting in the jazz band's audience.

Roaring Twenties: case 16

This Hard case seats 20 suspects on a 4×5 grid. 16 of them carry a clue; the other 4 only have something to say about themselves. 5 of the steps can only be proven by reading two or more clues together. Case 16 of the Roaring Twenties case pack. Same rules as every Clues & Culprits case: everyone tells the truth, and only proven verdicts stick.
