Visible crew/equipment: When Clarence recounts the events of the night of the crime, a T-mark is visible on the floor.
Continuity mistake: When the sheriff grabs the bottle, his palm is facing upward to avoid leaving fingerprints on it. However, as he walks toward the exit, in the subsequent exterior shot he is holding the bottle with his palm facing downward. While there may have been a split second in which he could have changed his grip, the entire point of the scene is that he avoids touching the bottle altogether.
Visible crew/equipment: When the sheriff exits the gym carrying the bottle, rigs and filming equipment are reflected in the window behind him.

Deadly Misunderstanding - S7-E2
Continuity mistake: Throughout the episode, Jeff's hair appears very dark brown, almost black. In the rainy night sequence when he meets Melissa, his hair is dark black in the classroom—likely due to being wet—but shifts to a noticeably brighter light-brown tone once it dries. In subsequent scenes, it returns to its original dark brown colour. This variation cannot be attributed to lighting, as in multiple other interior scenes his hair remains consistently dark brown.

How To Make a Killing Without Really Trying - S6-E14
Revealing mistake: When Jessica enters Gordon Tully's office and looks around, there's a photo of him with Buddy Black. The picture is an awful, poorly done composite: the lighting on their heads doesn't match the rest of the image, the head sizes are out of proportion with the bodies, and the overall light direction is inconsistent.
Answer: In a flashback scene, it was shown that he had a violent temper, so it stands to reason that he finally killed her in a fit of rage.
