CSI - Crime Scene Investigators

The MSU Police Department currently has six crime scene investigators. In addition to their initial 80 hours of training, investigators participate in specialized and in-service training. MSU Police Crime Scene Investigators have also been crossed trained by the MSU Office of Radiation, Chemical, and Biological Safety (ORCBS). As hazardous material technicians, we have 2 composite artists, 1 video specialist, advanced photographers, and accident investigators. The investigators are on call 24 hours a day for major crime scenes.

The Crime Scene Investigators are responsible for identifying, collecting, preserving, and documenting evidence at a crime scene. Our unit has processed scenes involving homicides, deaths, rapes, stabbings drive-by shootings, explosive devices, home invasions, breaking & entering, larcenies from vehicles, and vehicle accidents.

Our efforts have resulted in the successful identification, apprehension, and prosecution of criminals.
