where do you find the janitor where is he?

Merrill Greenwood (Janitor) can be found in the City Hall once you've unlocked her via Editor in Chief, which you can unlock Editor In Chief via Stylist.

Hi, How do we know when to or avail of the other skills, say code breaker. Do I get a case that requires a code breaker skill before i get the actual skill itself?

whats a mob boss?

@Jacob:
Code breaking is currently not in used. But previously even without the skills itself, you're able to bring the encoded note to the 3 faction minions to decode for you. What the skill actually does it to tell you exactly which one of the three that will be able to decode for you. Ohh, I think it appears above Incredibly Hard cases. You can read about it here:

@hmsvictory:

Mob Boss is the faction boss in which after you have 30 standings with the Realtor, she will introduce you to Mob Boss, and Mob Boss is one of the 3 faction boss that will offer Very Hard, Very Very Hard and Incredibly Hard cases to you.
