This game has me befuddled in a good way.
Going through tutorial case. Track down a lead at the Indigo Hare and view their CCTV so I can find who my victim was last seen alive with. Their is an unknown man and a women who leaves a crumpled up note by the name of Kiara Simmons. Find out they live at 402 Novak House and stop by for a little visit. I knock and as soon as the door opens, the same women on the CCTV runs out of the apartment frantically and I chase her down to question her. She refuses to identify herself or give me her fingerprints no matter how much I try to bribe her.. Very suspect if you ask me.. I return back to the apartment to find the man who was at the diner dead inside.. Pretty open and shut case I assume while I haven't been able to secure the women's finger prints I resolve my case and hand it in at city hall. However, it turns out she wasn't actually the killer? Why was she running out of an apartment with a corpse inside if she wasn't guilty? Is this a bug or did I truly miss something?

Maybe the corpse was her partner? My tutorial played out a bit differently and it was Kiara's body found in the apartment.

Yeah, you had a completely different situation. You can understand what was actually happening there if you go back to the beginning. Look at the emails of the original victim, Onni. You'll the connection he has to Kiara. You should be able to understand from there why she acted how she did.

Unless this is randomized, then Kiara is actually the person who slipped you the note under your door. If you scan that note for fingerprints, you'll find Kiara's on it. She is the one who wants you to investigate the case because she's worried that something might happen to her friend.

On the first victim's computer, you can find a V-mail conversation where the victim was worried, wanted to meet Kiara (this is the meeting that took place in the diner you investigated), and afterwards Kiara warned him in another V-mail to not open the door.

The way the case normally plays out, is that the killer shoots Kiara if you don't catch them fast enough. But if you're fast enough, then you can warn Kiara that the killer is out to get her, and she'll give you an extra reward.

Kind of funny that you ended up arresting the person that "hired" you. ;)

I'm not sure what exactly happened in your game, though. The "man in the diner" would be Onni Jonsson, the first victim. But you should have found him dead (and investigated him and his apartment) before you even found Kiara. Did you find a _second_ victim at 402 Novak House, or did you never go to investigate Onni Jonsson's apartment before looking for clues at the diner?

I newer even thought about scanning the note for prints (mostly ignored the note after read it). That would have saved some running around town scanning for Kiara's prints..
