I can’t imagine doing that 
(obvious /s is obvious)
Frankly my approach towards Alchs/Mercs in ToL as a Prince goes like this.
Did they already claim? Then they’re fine. Did they just claim in jail? Then they get the exe.
Rule of thumb is that late neut claims generally are far more likely of being Unseen/Cult/NK than not.

oh, for sure
the only exception is if i have a reason to believe with 100% certainty that they are real, and i simultaneously am low on executes or NEED a kingmaker neut to side me to win
but if you are a neutral claim in my jail cell you are usually not leaving alive

I’ll keep midgame/lategame neut claims alive in ToL if I have reason to believe they’re real
if there are only two neut claims (including both living neut claimers and dead neuts) both are usually legitimate

if im assassin / cl / NK i always attack D1 alch claims N1
D1 alch claims to me are always either phys or alchs who plan to not stoneskin early and bomb scum late
One time I was a Prince, and jailed someone who claimed 4th neut.
I correctly read one of the other neuts as fake and him as real, so I didn’t execute.
Then they were yelling at me in stream for my bad play.
