The Night Clerk (2020)

Character mistake: Several police officers are outside the hotel looking for evidence. Inside the room where the murder occurred, other officers/detectives are looking around. None of them are wearing gloves or shoe covers. The hotel manager is the one who found the camera card - even though Det Espada should not have allowed him in the room during the investigation and police should have found it the first day. Det Espada handles the camera card without wearing gloves. Det Espada did not secure the crime scene. (00:35:50)

The Night Clerk (2020)

Character mistake: Bart is sitting on a bench outside the hotel. After Detective Espada talks to the Mercer hotel manager/owner, he goes to talk to Bart. Bart has blood on both hands and lower left sleeve. Detective Espada is supposed to be investigating a fresh murder case that puts Bart at the scene, but he does not confiscate Bart's bloody clothes, conduct a gun powder test on Bart's hands to check for residue, or take him to the police station for formal questioning. Espada did not follow police protocol. (00:17:36)
