A massive amount of spray-paint vandalism happened near the UC Academy school campus. The vandalism was a colorful spraypaint on a wall with pictures of unicorns, drug paraphernalia, and the phrase “UCA Reel Thugz 4 Lyfe.” You and your friends were caught by a security video camera entering the area with cans of spray paint in your hands and home depot bags filled with what looks like more spray paint. The location of the vandalism was beyond the camera’s view. That same security camera saw you and your friends leaving the area with the same home depot bags. Although, the film quality is not HD, it is evident that there are colorful markings on some of your fingertips. Police were able to identify one of you by a peculiar green hat with a pink pom-pom on it, and after asking students at U.C. Academy it was discovered that one of you is known for wearing that hat. You and your group of friends are now detained awaiting questioning by a room full of detectives. Your job is to come up with a story that leads the class to think you’re all innocent.
