Agencies of Investigation
The federal government has the ability to use different agencies that hire certain investigators for certain jobs. They help give data in their respective fields to solve the crime and settle it in court. Some of these agencies are The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), Homeland Security Investigations (DHS/HSI), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), United States Secret Service (USSS). There are many steps that go into criminal justice investigations.

Starting at the investigation one of these agencies collects what they can for evidence and moves to charging whomever is suspected to be the perpetrator. Felony charges will bring that person into a court with a. Grand jury. Where witnesses are able to speak and give what evidence they can to help convict or prove someone innocent. These agencies are very important in making sure proper evidence is collected to be used in a court of law.
