What does K, L, D mean in slueth helper? I noticed when I pressed the D, The cou;d be would turn green.

It depends on which helper you're talking about. There's about six of them regularly used by people around here. I'm thinking the 'K' is for 'Knows', as in you've found a hint about that suspect, and he/she knows something about somebody. The 'L' may stand for 'Left', as in fled the scene, and therefore unable to be accused or talked to until you track them down. The 'D' may stand for 'Dead', where the suspect has been killed in the course of your case by the real killer, and therefore is unable to be questioned anymore.

Just a guess though. Without specifics as to which one you're using, it's hard to say.

Thanks. It makes sense now. I'm using the "Doctor Watson".

"The columns to the right are supposed to stand for Knows (some witness evidence), Dead and Lost."

So yes, K is knows. Knows information about another suspect.

D is dead. Dead. No longer a suspect.

L is Lost (Left). Has fled and you need to use Underworld Connections or ask around town to find them.
