The blood and hair sample you drop at LPD on number 199144. Then you visit the psychologist and show him the military record. ( Don't enter your office and talk to the Captain! The Captain sends you to the coroner again. That's wrong at this part of the story but I don't know if it's a bug in the game or just a mistake in this solution. )
Crack house 522 West Palm - 382 points
On the photo of the Bains brothers you have seen the house in the background and identified it as being at 522 West Palm so you drive to that location and find a fortified house. No one opens so you need a search warrant and drive to the court.

In the judge's chamber you show the photo and the news article and get a search warrant. But back at the crack house again nobody opens and you have to find another way to deliver your warrant. In court you get a judical order when you talk to the judge and tell her you need backup.
Crack house - End Game - 410 points
Coming to the crack house you see that backup and a ram had arrived. Action begins when you draw your gun click with it on your person and move to the left side of the door. The ram opens the door and you go in automatically. Have your gun ready because from the left side of the picture appears a gangster to shoot you. You shoot him and Michael Bains gives up. After you cuff him an officer takes him out. When you leave the house now you can get a K9 unit to help you find the rest. But you can do it alone. Under the left cushion you find a TV remote control. Use it on the TV and press button 8 to open a passage in the fire place. Get your gun ready when you enter this crack laboratory. When you go to the far left side of the cellar and back to the right a man appears from the left side of the picture and you shoot him.
So you reach the end of the part of the story where you can't interact because from now on it is fully animated. Pat wants to shoot you and get killed herself. You drive to the hospital and see that Mary is alright again and is getting a baby.
The names of the programmers follow.
With this solution you can reach a score of 445 of 460 points. You see there are a few points to search yet.
