A man was to be sentenced, and the judge told him, "You may make a statement. If it is true, I'll sentence you to four years in prison. If it is false, I'll sentence you to six years in prison." after the man made his statement, the judge decided to let him go free. What did the man say?

the man said to the judge "everything I say is a lie", Just like spock did with the android. Made his head explode.

That he was not guilty and explained why. Since the statement was true, the judge could not sentence him as he had not committed a crime.

He said, "u ll sen10s me to 6yrs in prison."
If true, then the judge would have to make it false by sentencing him to four years. If false, then he would have to give him 6 years, making it true. Rather than contradict his own word, the judge set the man free.
