A A double murder! Draw another card and move the killer to pick the second victim. The victim yet clings to life, but is incapacitated. A seemingly seperate attempt on the victim's life was witnessed shortly before the successful one. Multiple witnesses attest to seeing the victim perform a live podcast at the time that they were supposedly murdered. (Almost) nobody thinks this is a murder.
2 A calendar notification indicating the victim was booked to record a podcast with another suspect at the time of death The victim's notes for the next episode of their podcast. Interesting waveforms in the audio of the live podcast recording that was happening in the room next to the murder. The raw audio from the victim's mic at the time of the murder. A cypher that would reveal the murderer's name if correctly applied to the victim's recent podcast episodes.
3 A gift basket sent to the victim's hotel room that has striking similarities to the murder scene An unhinged post on the unofficial fan subreddit for the victim that was posted the day before the conference started. A suspiciously timed one-star rating of the victim's podcast on itunes. A threatening voicemail the victim played on a podcast a week ago and laughed about. A one-star review bombing of the victim's podcast that took place over the week leading up to the murder.
4 Blood where there shouldn't be blood A random suspect's hotel keycard. Muddy footprints in the room The stolen notes of the upcoming season of the victim's rival's podcast A sinister sound, heard by all in the hotel.
5 The hotel's CCTV cameras are laid out in the most incompetent way, but offer a blurry silhouette in the area of the murder The hotel's CCTV cameras were running but the perpetrator clearly knew where they were stationed The hotel's CCTV footage is intact and features every single suspect coming out of the place of the murder at different times. The hotel's CCTV footage appears to be corrupted in a ten minute window around the time of the murder The hotel's CCTV footage is intact and relatively useful
