It all begins at the crime scene and this is where most of the errors occur. Improper Response to the Scene. First Officers may not properly respond to and secure the scene and immediate area. Failure to Protect the Crime Scene. Not Handling Suspicious Deaths as Homicides.
The document outlines the 7 basic steps of crime scene investigation: 1) Secure the scene, 2) Separate witnesses, 3) Scan the scene, 4) See the scene, 5) Sketch the scene, 6) Search for evidence, and 7) Secure any evidence.
A full death investigation can take several months, depending on the nature of the death. This can be frustrating for the family and friends of the decedent because they want closure with their case.
The four phases of death investigation are Scene Investigation, Post-Mortem Examination, Analysis of Findings, and Case Conclusion. Each phase plays a crucial role in determining the cause and manner of death, providing a structured method for investigators to follow.
