I have solved two cases in a row where the evidence did not point to the correct suspect. The main evidence I had that didn't match was I had two possible suspects. In the past, when I'd check with the shoemaker RE footprints, he was able to confirm my suspicion. In both of these cases, I was told the footprint did NOT belong to the suspect. Just wondering ... does this happen a lot?

I don't always ask about people with motives. You can start to see how many suspects for a certain level. If I already have a certain #, I don't bother asking. That way, they are less likely to clam up. of course make sure you're not doing too hard a level either until you have the skills and/or accessories. I like to always check my alibis first. I can eliminate many of my suspects that way. I also have the research skill. That helps to eliminate 1 suspect in almost every case. Then I start on the physical evidence or asking if anyone suspects someone. I would not recommend relying on the hints that the townies give. "John Smith thinks he knows who the killer is." I don't find that they are always reliable.
