Knights and Knaves Problem: There are three people A, B, and C. One of them is a cop. They say the following:
A: I am not a cop
B: The cop is a knave
C: All three of us are knaves
Is the cop a knight or a knave?
My answer: the cop is a knave because that person is person A. If Person C is a knight, and everyone is a knave, then person A is lying. I am not sure if my reasoning or answer is correct and would really like some help please. Thank you.

$C$ cannot be a knight - he would be calling himself a knave.
Which also incidentally shows that $B$ is a knight.
