For those asking about the suit, its called the untouchable. You can unlock it by dodging more or less 20 punches in a row in a fist fight. What i did is that i kept dodging (basically spam square or X) until the new outfit unlocked notification pops up. You are welcome

[@jabdielPR]

For the other suits, the murphy can be unlocked by completing the military obstacle course towards the east of the city and the incognito outfit can be unlocked in the case “the set up” tail candy edwards without getting spotted (note: i didnt use cover for the time i played for the suit. Dont know if its a requirement i was going for the achievement) hope this helps guys

I charged on McAfree too, idk why but now if I had to choose again, it was Tiernan's fault for what happened to Evelyn (he shouldn't have shut her out at night, she did her best to solve the problem...and Tiernan doing resulted in her death... and also it's on him, as per the evidence belonged to Tiernan(Minus the fact that weapon which was given by Tiernan was found at MCafrrey's, isn't his)

I like to start out the first case of every desk in the base game suits for that desk, then change suits for every case. My theory is this is something Cole would have done in real life as there's a time lapse between cases which is evident in the game.

The odd things that I am noticing with the homicide cases is how did the real killer know where the false suspects lived to have the evidence be planted in their homes? Alonzo Mendez's apartment has the socket wrench and bloodied boots and his window was open. Eli's uniform was in the trunk of Diedre's car but how would Garrett Mason just easily plant it there along with the weapon and triple braid rope, but how can Garrett just easily imply Eli? How can Garrett plant Antonia's jewelry in Clem's fruit store room without being noticed? Stuart Ackerman's cabin in his camp has Theresa's handbag along with the ticket to the Crystal Ballroom but how and why would Garrett imply a random hobo that somehow a witness would identify? The lug wrench and note are in McCaffery's apartment but how can Garrett break in without raising suspicion to plant those stuff in there? There's just too many plotholes in this that I feel like would be impossible.

I still don't understand the dialogue at 3:23-3:39. What is this "pledge" are they talking about? Then they, I assume, bargain for some amount of money, 50, 20, and then 10, and suddenly the pawn guy agrees to show them the ring, with Rusty saying something along the line "you should be lucky (he's) getting it" Then no money is exchanged in the end. What is Rusty doing, exactly?

[@Joe_Parmesan]

My guess is that the pawn broker is probably going to lose the rings, as they're (possibly) linked to the Deidre Moller case. Since he likely can't sell them, Rusty talked the price down so the pawn broker at least gets something in return. Also, Rusty probably knows the rings won't sell for very much, so he's not fooled by the $50 and $20 requests by the pawn broker

The evidence being circumstantial is the point of all of these cases, since none of the guys were the culprit in their case. Phelps kept thinking that it didn't add up correctly, while Rusty and Donnelly were pleased at the charging all-too-convenient prime suspects As for the search at McCaffrey's, I'm not sure how search laws were in the 40s, but it would definitely be an illegal search in this day and age
