  • edited February 2008
    Hey, I hope you get thru this.... Does anyone in the interrogation room have anything to say? Is any of your evidence unproceesed?
  • edited February 2008
    I've tried speaking to all suspects again and all they say is thats all im saying for now. i'm pretty sure i've analysed all my evidence as well. i've been to every location and through all my evidence i dont know how many times trying to find something i've missed !
  • edited February 2008
    Hmmm... What was the last thing you did? Have you gotten the GPS device from the dashboard? Have you found the poncho? Is everyone in the interrogation room, or is anyone still in the regular world? Are there any hints available? (Sometimes you don't need to ask the full hint question to get a clue as to where to look.....

    Hope this gets solved for you.
