  1. He gets nervous and defensive if you question him on the flashlight. He also breaks down under Lilly's interrogation, not enough to confess, but he's pretty broken.
  2. Clementine's pink chalk was taken. Ben has a close relationship with Clementine
  3. Ben's clumsy. Explaining the broken flashlight.
  4. Lilly didn't make the deal, she was the one who brought it up.
  5. Kenny wanted to leave, so it would've been useless for him to make a deal with bandits.
  6. Katjaa isn't
  7. Lee obviously didn't do it. We're Lee, lol. Lilly even says we didn't do it.
  8. Carley or Doug didn't do it considering their loyalty to your for saving them Especially Carley. Lilly really doesn't blame Doug.
I think the biggest clue was his immediate response following the raid:

"... I'm sorry."

I bet you Carley thought it was Ben too, I mean who else would she have thought it was? No way she would think it was Lee, Kenny is in the clear because he had his family with him, and Lilly was the one who instigated the search. Ben is the only one. Carley also never said it wasn't him when she was defending him, she only said you shouldn't treat him so horribly and that she should stop torturing him and all of that. It's likely everyone thought Ben was the most likely candidate.

Ah, I forgot that. I remember defusing it myself in my first playthrough. But I have to go back to the St. John example, they attack regardless of a deal. So they couldn't be trusted.
Good point. I would have probably left right after I got the RV working though, perhaps they were lulled into a false sense of security because the bandits didn't attack for a while thanks to the deals?

They definitely would have attacked again in the future, I don't think they would have attacked right away though, not after Lee's superb convincing skills ("if you kill us right here how are you all going to get supplies? You need us!"). It would have made them safe for the time being at least, just wait for them to leave then get on that RV and gtfo of there.
