The Feds Took My Case

OK, I am at the mid-game and the case of the serial killer has started. I did the first couple days of following the postcards and was very interesting. Now whenever a crime scene from the killer appears and I send detectives, my only option is TURN FRAMES OVER TO THE FEDS and I don't get any of the interesting clues etc. Where did I screw up? I withheld evidence so I could do the case myself, but the Feds magically found out anyway. I want to go back and not make the same mistake - this is the most interesting case in the game so far.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You will still get money by giving the case to the feds just not as many. And I can assure you that if you want to make the half a million there will be chances to make more than that without really trying. In fact, unless you want the 5th achievement you can afk the whole game except the dialogue options.

So do not worry about details, try to enjoy it and you can always do a new playthrough.
Basically this is a telltale game in disguise.

Thanks manne6, I will try moving my snitch to the other shift and see if that works.

#7, I'm not just trying to get to the end credits as fast as possible, I want to play this game. Why would I want to skip over a huge case like this?

Huh. I read somewhere else that it's sufficient to fire the snitching officer ... seemed like a bad way to shut them up, but I tried it anyway ... and yeah, it didn't work.

It strikes me as very unfortunate that in order to catch a serial killer, the chief of police must conspire in the murder of his own officers. Essentially you have to murder the innocent in this game in order to do your job.

Time to roll back the clock a week and try again :(

Sorry for necroing, but I cannot find any other info about this. I fired the officer that want to tell the mayor about the killer, but I lost the case anyway.
I need to kill it anyway?

Yeah, I think you do. At least, when I went back and arranged an "accident" for that officer, I was able to continue the case. Not sure if there's another way - probably not.
