Real Life CSI’s

(LINCOLN, Neb.) — The field of Crime Scene Investigation has become very popular in recent years, primarily due to television series by the same name, CSI, and others.

Let’s take a moment to peek in on the crew in Lincoln.

From Lincoln Police Department

Meet our CSIs! All those popular TV shows are based on the hard work of these real-life experts. Our Crime Scene Investigators all have other primary roles at LPD and CSI work is an extra specialized position.

Lincoln Police CSIs, ID Lab employees and partnering agencies attended the 40th annual Nebraska Division of the International Association for Identification Training Conference this week. They are required to maintain their certifications through their work experience and attending educational trainings like this one.

The CSIs are called on at all hours to process scenes and all types of evidence on major cases in the City of Lincoln Government. They train monthly with our partnering agencies of the Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office and the Nebraska State Patrol. Our forensic experts then work to process various items of evidence collected by our CSIs.

Thank you to all of the employees who attended this training to further their education in the field of forensics. Not all of our CSIs are pictured as a team was called to assist in crime scene processing.
