Frequently asked questions

What key information should I include in a police investigation report?

A thorough police investigation report should include incident details (date, time, location), victim information, suspect descriptions, evidence collected, witness statements, investigative actions taken, and your professional observations. Focus on factual information rather than opinions, and ensure all information is accurate and complete to support potential legal proceedings.

How detailed should witness statements be in an investigation report?

Witness statements should be as detailed as possible, capturing exact quotes when relevant to the case. Record what the witness saw, heard, or experienced, their location during the incident, timing observations, and any relationship to involved parties. This comprehensive documentation helps establish credibility and provides crucial context for later case review.

What’s the best way to document physical evidence in my investigation report?

Document each piece of evidence with its exact location, condition, collection method, and chain of custody. Take photographs before collecting items when possible, and assign each piece a unique identifier. Note the relevance of each item to your investigation and describe any distinctive characteristics that might be significant to the case.

What common mistakes should I avoid when completing a police investigation report?

Avoid vague descriptions, undocumented assumptions, incomplete witness information, and timeline gaps. Don’t use police jargon that civilians won’t understand, include irrelevant personal opinions, or rush through documentation. These mistakes can undermine your investigation’s credibility and create vulnerabilities that defense attorneys can exploit during legal proceedings.
