The body of a powerful studio head is found in his Malibu estate. His infamous non-disclosure agreement is discovered shredded in a guest bathroom. The investigation will trace the movements and digital footprints of his inner circle within the house on the night of his death.
Initial Crime Scene
The air hangs heavy with the scent of night-blooming jasmine cut by a faint, chemical tang from a nearby shredder. A distant, muffled bass thrum from the party reverberates through the floor. Your gaze catches shredded legal documents spilling from a designer trash can, the blinking green light on a biometric safe scanner, and the slow, silent blink of a 'REC' light on a DVR unit beneath a desk.
Crime Scene Environment
Lighting profile: low, moody, with pools of warm incandescent light in social areas and cooler, task-oriented light in utility spaces. Humidity/temperature profile: cool, air-conditioned air with pockets of humid micro-climates (solarium, pool area). Acoustic density: a layered soundscape of distant party music, the hum of climate control systems, and the oppressive quiet of private rooms.
Investigation Constraints
Smartphones (primary communication), encrypted messaging apps (Signal, Telegram), cloud storage with shared folders, digital security cameras with local DVR, smart doorbell logs, GPS-enabled luxury vehicles, biometric home safes (fingerprint), social media analytics dashboards. No advanced AI or deepfake tech.
