Crime Detection & Records

Behind Bars tracks crimes, witnesses, and long-term records so consequences carry forward.

Detection pipeline

1. The game detects offenses (assault, drug possession, manslaughter, and more).
2. Witnesses log what they saw and feed reports into your rap sheet.
3. Contraband detection runs whenever parole officers search you.

Rap sheet & persistence

• Your rap sheet records crimes, parole history, and violations.
• Each arrest updates the record, which can scale future penalties.

Wanted level UI

• The wanted level UI gives a quick read on how much heat you are carrying.
• Higher heat increases pressure from law enforcement systems.

Tips

• If you are trying to lay low, avoid repeated offenses that stack your record quickly.
