Detectives investigate crimes by gathering clues and evidence at crime scenes to determine motives and identify suspects. They conduct stakeouts and investigate theft and robbery cases. Detectives, informants, private eyes, witnesses, and victims all play roles in investigations which utilize forensic evidence like DNA, footprints, and hair to solve cases.
