Victorian London: case 46

This Hell case seats 25 suspects on a 5×5 grid. 18 of them carry a clue; the other 7 only have something to say about themselves. 9 of the steps can only be proven by reading two or more clues together. Case 46 of the free Victorian London case pack. Same rules as every Clues & Culprits case: everyone tells the truth, and only proven verdicts stick.
