- Goof: On the roof, Daniela hears the song Please Don't Go by KC & the Sunshine Band. However, high school proms happen in the spring (and she dies on May 12th). The song wasn't released until the fall of 1979, and wasn't a number one hit until January 1980.

- Highlight below for a spoiler: Nitpick: Blood tests back in 1979 (and certainly in 2004) could have revealed that the blood is not from a female victim. While it can be questioned whether Daniela had the usual male XY chromosomes or more unusual combinations of more than two chromosomes, s/he would have definitely had a Y chromosome, revealing that the victim was not a woman.

- Det. Jeffries: We just luminoled the scene. Luminol is a chemical that can be used to detect traces of blood invisible to the naked eye. The chemical reacts with hemoglobin and emits a blue glow that can be seen in dark surroundings or, if photographed, by using a long exposure time.
