I would play it again if it was easier to figure out. I heard that vampires can sneak into your fortress and feed on your dwarves, then blame someone else. Truly, the AI is down right amazing.

it's not going to be easy but I understand you this game is crazy and tough to learn.It took me 1 month+ (playing and tutorials) and after that everything was easy to understand just follow captnduck's tutorial on youtube

Last I played you could easily find out who the vampire dwarves were using one of a few methods.
One, engraving a slab or otherwise in memory of the dead dwarf will show who the vampire is under the dwarf's cause of death.
Two, vampires have absurdly long relationship lists.
Three, just keeping your dwarves in a communal sleeping area helps them spot potential vampires, but again you might run into the whole problem with them lying and framing others.
Four, if you keep a close eye on your dwarves' sleeping quarters, you'll notice a vampire when it goes to feed because it changes its symbol into the nightcreature symbol (ñ). If you've caught him in a private room, you can simply forbid all the doors and leave him there to rot. Or fill the room with magma, if your doors can handle it or you've taken other precautions.
My personal favourite way of killing vampires as the overseer of my dwarves is setting up a gigantic pile of dirt or rocks supported by a single support, placing a lever beneath it, and assigning the vampire dwarf to pull that lever. Collapsing floors into spike pits works too.

Five: Vampires don't eat, drink or sleep, so if you suspect someone of being a vampire, wall them into a room and keep an eye on them.
Oh, and if you stick a chair and table in there, you can have a Vampire Accountant (bookkeeper)/Manager! Never eats! Never drinks! Never sleeps! Doesn't cry! The perfect worker!

W8 mine was sleeping for long long time and he didnt have any injuries.
I also had him traped in a room without food drinks just a chair,a table and a bed and he stood there without hunger so that makes him a 100% vampire
