Could you make the decisions?
Every month, members of the Investigation Team are presented with a new investigation set in Sandford.
You'll examine the information available, consider the risks and decide what you would do next.
These aren't murder mysteries. There isn't always a clear answer, and sometimes the information is incomplete, just as it is in real-world investigations.
