UEDJ - A Crime-Solving Desk Job
A downloadable detective game for Windows
Summary
The year is 2505. You have just gotten hired at the UEDJ, the United Eart Department of Justice, as a crime-analyst.
Whenever you sit down to work at your shared-working-environment desk and fire up your barely functional computer, you are greeted with a bunch of files, images, audio, and text, sent to you by the police. Your job is to analyse the evidence, select the necessary ones to burn onto a single 4-10MB nano-DVD. Send the right evidence and the culprit is caught, send the wrong and he walks free or, even worse, an innocent life is ruined! 🔪
Now go out and earn that sweet 3k Credits minimum wage!
UEDJ features 2½ cases to solve, kinda okay art, pretty bad writing, and absolutely horrible music.

The very last case i cannot figure out at all. Hints please?
It's been years but I'll put this here for those curious. It's the map, the butler, the maid, and the husband.
