What kinds of cases will be assigned to investigators and what kind of cases are assigned back to the uniformed officers?
Generally, cases that require a great deal of investigative follow-up and cases of a more serious nature are assigned to investigators. Crimes such as murder, rape, sexual assaults, physical assaults, robbery, burglaries, forgeries, frauds and major larcenies are usually assigned to investigators. Incidents requiring less intensive follow-up investigative work are generally assigned back to the uniformed officer who took the original report.
