Glitch with detective clues, makes arresting the right suspect impossible

I'm having this issue too. So annoying! After a few days I sent my detective alone, I join and there is "interrogate suspect" in the tasks but there is no suspect to be found at the station. It lets me issue APB, so I go to find suspect and there is no one single sim at the place, so I can't arrest anyone. I tried the Shift+click cheat and went to the Detective Day Event and all it did was create a bigger mess. UGH! So I'll have to do the quit and cheat back in the job.
