CSI: 3 Dimensions of Murder Hints

Case 2 Investigation

  • 1 of 33: Caution: Spoilers! This hint will lay out the entire investigation move by move, for one possible way (there may be others) to solve the case so that you find every possible bit of evidence. The best way to use this hint is to read only until you find something you haven't done yet, then go do it.
  • 2 of 33: Game Demo Booth: Talk to Maya Nguyen. Collect evidence, then talk to Maya again.
  • 3 of 33: Mobile Unit: Compare DNA evidence from the two blood swabs (from the blood under the victim's head and from the victim's chest). This puts the lab on the map.
  • 4 of 33: Morgue: Ask Dr. Robbins to collect body and ask him all questions; he'll give you one of the bullets. Look at the body and take photos of a bruise on the left shoulder area and insect stings on the left foot.
  • 5 of 33: Brass: Talk to Brass to get the address of the hotel.

  • 8 of 33: Morgue: Ask about scorpion bites.
  • 9 of 33: Hotel Room: Ask Andy about text messages; get a receipt for a movie.
  • 10 of 33: Brass: Ask all questions and get the victim's cell phone; get a partial print from the back. (You'll never be able to match this print, though in the case wrap-up Greg makes a guess as to its owner.)

  • 12 of 33: Parking Garage: Talk to Craig.

  • 26 of 33: Brass: Ask him to search for the adapter. Talk to Maya; she says Andy is an old-school hacker.
