Let's say I'm on a hard to impossible case, where I know there should be 3-4 pieces of evidence. But when I search the crime scene, I only find 2.
My question is, am I guaranteed that 1 of the physical pieces of evidence will definitely belong to the guilty person? Or could I possibly have found 2 pieces of physical evidence, neither of which belongs to the guilty person?
I'm guessing it's the latter, but I just thought I'd double-check.

You are correct, Greyling. I was referring to a different detective I play. And there I am at "hard" level favors. I checked before I posted.
Why didn't I post that question as that detective? I don't know. Don't really have a good answer. I've registered a few detectives with diff personalities & skills just so I could see how diff things worked.

Hehehe - I have a couple of those myself as well for the same reason :)

Okay, then next question, and again no offence meant I'm just asking because it has happened before - does that other detective who hasn't found more than 2 pieces of physical evidence at the crime scene on hard level cases have basic thread and hair analysis? And is it only one of your detectives who is having the 2 piece problem or does it happen to all of them?
