How to unlock the Golden Boy achievement in L.A. Noire - Definitive Guide

The first chance you get at unlocking this achievement is during "The Drivers Seat" case at the traffic desk. You will be given objectives thorough this relatively quick case, so I will just state every clue that must be found in this case and where they are located. Remember, you will get a nice little chime and then the music will stop to signify that you found all clues at a certain scene.

Main crime scene (5 clues)
-Check inside the car and look at the blood
-Live hog receipt in trunk
-Bloodied pipe found near the passengers side of the car
-Wallet on the ground near the front of the ground (Note: examine both the picture and the license.
-Glasses next to the wallet

Black residence (7 clues)
-Head straight into the house into a messy bedroom. On the left is a wardrobe that must be examined to find a train ticket to Seattle.
-To the right of the wardrobe, there is a dresser with a photo of Mr. Black on it. Pick it up and examine it further to find a secret love letter.
-Next to the photo is a glasses case
-Matches next to the bedside drawer in the messy bedroom. Examine them further to obtain a bar name, which you must call in to find the address for. There is a phone right across from the main door.
-In the kitchen that is to the left when leaving the bedroom, there is a Instaheat receipt on the small kitchen table.
-On the same table, there is a Instheat flyer. Examine the entire flyer and the back of it.
-Go outside and and go along the right side of house to come across a water heater. Fix the pipes to gain a clue.

After visiting Frank at the bar (1 clue)
-For this clue, make sure you yourself drive to the next objective in order to get the next clue titled "swine blood" from the APB during the car ride.

Frank's apartment (1)
-When you arrive at Frank's apartment building, go to the mailboxes to find Frank's room number.

After you finish the case, the achievement should unlock for finding all clues.

Nearby evidence is always accompanied by a special signal and vibration of the controller. After studying, the signal changes a little and the controller no longer vibrates. A fairly simple trophy, given the fact that they clearly let you know when you find all the evidence in place - the detective music stops playing and a long signal is emitted.
This trophy can be obtained in the first case of the traffic department The Driver's Seat , and also receive with it The Third Degree trophy for correct reactions in each interrogation and The Up and Ip for receiving 5 stars in the case.
List of all evidence and interviews in each case .

We carefully follow the music of the investigation. It's quiet, which means all the evidence has been found on the spot. If so, use your intuition.

In A Marriege Made in Heaven, as in A Polite Invitation, you can get it in an unfair way: Press SELECT and select Intuition-Show all clues (it’s temporary, so have a few points)

Some clues are revealed only in conversations with witnesses/suspects, and some still need to be reached through the right choice of lines.
