Question:
A Tennessee man was in court to be sentenced for theft.
The judge told the man, “You may make a statement. If it is true, I’ll sentence you to five years in prison. If it is false, I’ll sentence you to ten years in prison.”
After the man made his statement, the judge decided to let him go free. What did the man say?
Answer:
He said, “You’ll sentence me to ten years in prison.” If it was true, then the judge would have to make it false by sentencing him to five years. If it was false, then he would have to give him ten years, which would make it true. Rather than contradict his own word, the judge set the man free.

good riddle
was able to answer it in 10 seconds.
So, to result, the judge gave the man 15 years in jail, being the summation of both 5 and 10.
And if it’s a paradox, you get a life sentence. Congratulations.
