An investigation may include conducting interviews with victims, witnesses, and suspects, analyzing information for validity, reliability, and accuracy; and compiling a factual and comprehensive case to be presented in court. Detectives may also respond to and process major crime scenes to ensure that the highest level of investigation and evidence collection methods are achieved.

Detectives will frequently complete the processing of physical evidence and prepare evidence for submission to the Colorado Bureau of Investigations.
