The most ever was 52 in 1981. #2 The police department has a rotation system for assigning cases to lead detectives. This time, partners Russo and Allen were up to handle the case from start to finish. If it wasn’t solved by the group effort in the next few hours, it would be theirs to work alone. #3 The detectives were able to narrow down three potential scenarios regarding Walter: he was going to be a witness in a robbery trial, he was evicting people from the apartment, or he was allowing young men to stay in his apartment in exchange for work around the building. #4 The detectives interview the two men who were with Troy when he was alive just minutes before his death. They know they have a case that will take a lot of work on the street.
