Crime Scene Narratives
When investigators write police reports, they must convey the steps of their investigative process and what they saw in as vivid detail as possible. Their reports must answer the questions: Who? What? When? Where? Why? and How? The reader must come away with not only a thorough understanding of what was observed, but also what the investigator found at the crime scene. Attention to detail and the manner in which report writers convey their thoughts are extremely important. Reports provide a way for investigators to laterâ€â€even years laterâ€â€refresh their memory as to what they saw and did. Any information that investigators cannot recall from memory or glean from their reports is lost, which highlights the importance that must be placed on capturing all pertinent information clearly, completely, and concisely during the investigation.
