- Bryson Gauthier

Bryson Gauthier is a main character appearing in Season 1 in Criminal Case, where he serves as the Lab Chief of the Coral Grove Police Department.

Profile
Bryson, aged 34 and hailing from Quebec, Canada, is in charge of all physical and clinical forensics in the Coral Grove PD. He has dark brown eyes and dark brown hair underneath a French beret. He wears a standard lab coat which has a blue box with the word "Forensic" written in white on his right. Underneath the lab coat, he wears a black shirt. Other than that, he wears a DNA necklace around his neck.

Bryson is known to be an adventurous globetrotter who collects souvenirs and photographs to fulfill his ambitious lifestyle. He is also known to be industrious, independent, and spontaneous. However, his only known weakness is eating food samples. Besides that, it is known that Bryson's favorite animal is an octopus and that his favorite dish is grilled chicken with seasonal veggies.

Analyses
As the Lab Chief of the Coral Grove PD, Bryson has the responsibility of taking care of all the necessary physical, biological, and/or clinical analyses, and to inform the team of such results after a certain amount of time or a speed-up process using Criminal Case Cash. His task-wait rates will vary depending on the difficulty of the task, but they all cost 1 Criminal Case Cash per 30 minutes.

Bryson often eats or drinks the sample sent to him whenever he finishes analyzing it, as long as it's something he can safely ingest. He then asks the team if he can have the item the sample has been extracted from to get more. This is due to his busy schedule that hinders his ability to eat full meals throughout the day. He sometimes does this to try out new food and drinks he's never had before.

Below is the list of analyses Bryson performs throughout the course of the game:
