This strange woman keeps popping up and saying "There is more to so-and-so than meets the eye". Then after I solve the case she comes to my office and says that whoever I put in jail was a suspect in some case or other and now she will never get to the bottom of it.

What if anything is the significance of this ?person ?

I have actually depended on some of the other 'plotlines' to help me out - I've had several where a suspect gets arrested, then I prove that they didn't do it - so I've come to assume that the police always arrest the wrong one....

Of course, this might misfire on me - there's another where you dream of blood-covered photos of people, and it names one in particular - which has always turned out to be another innocent party who will be the 'next victim'....

But in the favour case I just completed, the finale included a photo that the murderer had taken of himself, smiling and covered in blood.... I didn't even SUSPECT the guilty party until I got lucky at the last second....

Well, I'll use a bit more intelligence in future, but I think there is some help to be gained from 'circumstance'! :-)

I don't think you can count on any of the cutscenes to provide reliable clues. I've seen them all work out both ways.

Best not to read too much into them, unless you are saving lots of money for Shady.

Phileas, I will echo Dogberta. I know that the police don't always make a mistake, for example...
