Hello! I'm a couple days old and need some help with my skills. I'm very tough, and currently have 14 skill points to spend. I feel kind of overwhelmed with all of the choices I have of skills, so I need some help. Right now, my current skills are:
-Lock Picking
-Intimidation
-Interrogation
-Hair Analysis
-Thread Analysis
Thank you so much in advance! :)

Do you have all your Basic Smart Skills? Handwriting, Footprint, Hair and Thread Analysis are all very important. Once you have those you can go for Lock Picking which will give you a free alibi or extra names from one or two of your suspects depending on the level of cases you are doing.

Hope this helps :-)

Can I ask how the Smarts skills work?
I have Hair Analyis and Advanced Hair Analysis.

Handwriting, Foot, Hair and Thread are PEs (physical evidence) found at a crime scene. They are all very important and you should concentrate on obtaining all your basics to make sure that all PEs are covered when you do a case. The advanced skills such as your advanced Hair Skill will give you more info on them. Hair, straight or curly; Thread, woman or man. I believe that your basic Handwriting and Foot skills atomatically give you all info. There is no advanced Handwriting or Foot skills.

Bear in mind, though, that possession of the relevant skill is not a guarantee of getting the advanced info. You'll always find all the evidence provided you have the skills to do so, but there's always a chance you won't be able to make the advanced analysis. The higher your Smart rating when you search a crime scene, the more likely you are to analyse the evidence.
