The coroner tells me that Lester Pattison was not killed from a hit and run but that he was already dead when the car hit him and that he was stabbed? does that make sense? I though i saw the car hitting him at begining cutscene not that he was stabbed?

Answer 1

Yes but did you find the knife in the trash outside the bar you need that for the case.

Answer 2

The coroner always tells you the truth. After you complete the case, you will know that he was stabbed and then pushed in front of a car. The second part is what you are seeing in the cut-scene at the beginning. For more info, see this guide: http://www.sleeandtopher.com/guide/l-a-noire-a-marriage-made-in-heaven-case-guide/
