The police have drawn up a list of prime suspect descriptions for a recent bank robbery. However, due to a clerical error, although each item is in the correct column, only one entry in each column is correctly positioned.   The following facts are true about the correct order.


1. Yellow is one row below medium and somewhere above mauve.

2. Thin is 2 rows above Spanish.

3. Hunched is 3 places below English.

4. White is somewhere above dark and 2 places above fat.

5. Italian is 2 places above purple.

6. Brown is one row below both yellow and African.

7. Cream is immediately below purple but 3 places below none.

Can you find the correct nationality, hair color, coat color, and build for each suspect?  

The answer for the certitude checker is hair color, coat color, and build for the prime suspect: Spanish.

The format needed for the certitude checker is the first letter of hair color, first letter for the coat color, first letter for the build. Use no commas, only three letters needed. No capital letters. (Example: rms)(hair coat build)
