Can't find and arrest suspect

You're doing better than I am. Where the heck do I find my notebook??

Having same issue! Apb issued 3 times and no luck! (Notebook is in the phone. Hit the phone, top of the screen is where it is)

I just had trouble with her third arrest. No one was there matching the description and none of the witnesses could help. I'll go back and analyze more evidence and talk about the case and stuff and see if that helps for the next APB.

I have trouble finding the correct suspect, I found a sim that perfectly matched the description and no one else in the area looked like the description, I arrested them and after interrogation it said they were innocent. So annoying!!

Well, i have only done one of those and the guy was the correct one. So far so good. I just have one gripe about the Detective career though. The work area is packed with officers and detectives all using the computers. really annoying trying to finish some of them when you need to use the computer. maybe i could manage the building and put a room with a computer and lock the door only for me or something lol ( not really sure if i can do this mostly joking).

@xsophiex9999 @quosqua39 @Buckinghart the notebook is found on your cellphone a small circle at the top of the phone screen, yes you will get notifications of each clue but since cases can span over 2-3 days sometimes those messages can get lost. the other place to find a notebook is on the computers.

I'm having this problem too, there is a person who 100% fits all 6 clues, but the two times they've been arrested and interrogated, they are innocent.

I found a sim matching that exact description, but by the time he finally showed up to the lot the game put me on when I issued an APB, he'd aged into a young adult.

I had the same description and said was a male! I tried 3 arrests.. then try a random female, with skirt and top and got ir right.. completly oposite of the notebook description! Why the notebook anyway?

My sim went 5 days looking for the person on the APB and couldn't find anyone matching the descriptions. So what I did to almost restart a new case was enter in the cheat box: testingcheats true. Then shift click on your sim to Detective Day Events. Then Apprehend Suspect Event. The game gives you different descriptions of another sim. Issue another APB and then look for the new suspect. Arrest them, interrogate them and get the confession. The game pretty much resets for you and you can get a new case.

I know the Police Station is always packed and no room to use the computers when you need to but it seems when you go to use a computer an assistant or a receptionist is using they get up right away! Maybe that will help a little bit.
