Detectives

In movies or shows we only see what detectives do doing a limit of the time show base. They are the field investigators in Criminal Justice team who go ask questions to suspects. Detectives may also be a private investigators or working in police unit trying to solve cases.

To be a detective you have to be very skilled to question a suspect for the crime they probably were suspected of doing. One show that shows someone questioning the suspect like in Castle Detective Beckett is asking the suspect of what they were doing the time free of the murdered and if the suspect have a witness of the where about he or she was of the time of murdered. It takes weeks for a detective to solve a crime.

The detectives have to consider who or what was the victim involve like drugs, family issues or other business. They take their time to collect the information due to sending evidence to the labs which could take days or weeks. Sometimes the evidence could be set back due contamination of the crime scene.

One example on CSI: NY one of the detectives Aiden Burn was trying to solve a rape case which could not be solve and so she opened one of the evidence to frame of the suspects, who she wanted to put away. The suspect already raped another person, whom had did not remember what happened or not knowing who the person that raped but remembered how he smelled and Burn found the suspect.
