Any skill you think would be useful/cool, mention it here. If you can tag it with a type (smart, tough, charming). Also, lets try to match up new skills of each type with each other.

"You found a bite mark on the victims ankle. Upon closer inspection, you realized it was left by a buck-toothed person"

Here's a Skill Idea:
Gut Instinct- Tells you which suspect will reveal the most motives. Or it could tell you how many motives a suspect will give you when you first look at a suspect. In either case this doesn't count the additional motives you gain from hypnotism.
Granted it will be possible that the motives will be of people you already have but I could see it being a somewhat useful skill allowing detectives to pick and choose which people they go to first but not all that unbalancing considering detectives will have to talk to everybody eventually.
I also have a good name for another skill but I'm not quite sure how the mechanics would work for it.

Skill: Frame Suspect/Plant Evidence
For those times when you just want to finish a case without worrying about whether justice has been done. Possible mechanics might include:
1) using it only once a day and having to pay your PE Contact double the unclamming cost to "find" a match for a suspect without a valid alibi; or
2) every time it is used, it causes your agency to lose 20 Fame (or any other number considered appropriate); or
3) there is a 10% chance the police become suspicious and question you causing you to lose 2 cases that day.
