Is it possible to have one suspect that has two eyewitness evidence against him/her WHILE having another suspect who has one piece of physical evidence against him/her?

And if so, who would be more guilty?

Also, what do experience points DO? I have over 2,000 experience points, and I'm doing hard cases right now, with only the occasional skill point if I get it.

(I'm trying to hold out for a really good skill, like Lock Picking, but it's been so long since I've gotten a skill, I might settle for anything.)

Its not possible to have 2 suspects with no/fake alibi and both have evidence against them. One of them will have real alibi.

wait till the skill you want is available to you. Skill points come slower and slower. So you better dont rush up and buy anything.

Lia, everyone has a motive - they don't appear in the game if they don't. So that in itself doesn't point to the killer.

You need to have two pointers to the killer out of:
~ fake alibi or no alibi (clamming up and not telling you doesn't count for this).
~ physical evidence.
~ witness evidence.

As Reda says, the one with two witnesses against them is guilty. Your other suspect, with physical evidence against them, will have a valid alibi (even if they've clammed up and won't tell you, or the townspeople have clammed up and you can't prove it either way).
