This walkthrough is freakin awful. It's more like a synopsis of the story. Doesn't help me solve cases at all.

The Red Lipstick Murderer
For the Homicide desk you will be paired with Rusty Galloway. Your first order of business is investigating the crime scene. You'll want to locate the lighter shaped as a globe. Line up the globe's four sections to gain an address to the Bamba Club.

Head to the club and talk to the bartender, Garret Mason. He will point you towards McColl in the back who knew Celine Henry. McColl is rather honest, though he does fib a bit when it comes to his relationship to the deceased. He will at least lead you to husband's home address.

Go to the Henry house and confront Jacob inside. Explore the area for clues, including shading the note pad on the counter. This will reveal that Jacob had it out for Celine. Grill the husband about the failed marriage. Afterwards use the phone to send a squad car down. You can also get more info about the car at the scene: it belongs to Alonzo Mendez.

Travel to Mendez's apartment and search the area. You'll find bloody rags and the murder weapon. Mendez will enter his room and flee upon seeing you. Chase after him down and he'll eventually enter his car.

It will now become a car chase instead of on foot, but the goal remains to knock his car down. If you move in close enough Rusty will blast the car's tires and cause the suspect to crash. Once the chase is over, get out and arrest Mendez for the murder.
