My last comment didn't tick this off, for some reason.

This one was fun but I'm not sure about the conditions. It seemed like I (and some other folks) could only get it down to a small number of suspects logically and then you just have to confront all of those? Or I'm missing something. Either way, nice to shake the rust off.

Looks like the macro was created in a newer version than mine so I could not zip it up in my solution but all the other tools are there if you want to see how I solved.

I guess I tend to overthink things, but

(1) shouldn't the name of the suspect also be present in all the events in which a murder had occurred? 

and (2) what says that if a murder wasn't committed the suspect wasn't present?

In other words, if this is also a 'logic' puzzle, it should have been mentioned that the killer ALWAYS kills whenever he/she is present during it's operating hours; ie. if there was not murder, the killer was not present.

Still a nice break from pure analytics and a creative challenge.
