- Crime scene investigators carry many useful tools, such as fingerprinting kits, and other kits that identify chemicals on bodies. - The main goal of a crime scene investigator is to preserve evidence, while still investigating as much as possible. - At a crime scene, all suspects are taken into police custody on site. - Hundreds of photographs are taken at the scene of the crime, usually from five different angles. - After all on - site investigations are completed, the bodies are then taken to be autopsied. - The entire surrounding area around the crime scene is then searched for evidence. - All evidence is examined in a laboratory, where hairs, fingerprints, and other sorts of DNA are lifted.
