At the start of Kint's interrogation, Kujan mentions to him the first thing he learned on the job was how to spot a guilty man, that whoever actually manages to sleep after being put in jail committed the crime, because they've let their guard down and allowed themselves to rest.

This actually turned out to be true about 10 minutes earlier, when we saw Hockney as the only person laying down and having a rest after the men were arrested.

Of course, we later learn that Hockney was in fact responsible for the gun truck hijacking which landed them all in jail in the first place. Kujan wasn't wrong.
