I chose this particular article because I had a personal interest in the topic. Criminal investigation is an important topic in our society as it is one way of maintaining order in society. The article does a good job of providing a history of criminal investigation, but then only provides one example of a controversial topic withing the topic.

The article itself did not give a detailed description of the methods of criminal investigation. It may be helpful to add a section on tools or equipment used in criminal investigation. Not all of the information contained in the article appears to be cited. The photos included in the article are captioned well and appear to be appropriate to the topic. Criminal investigation is listed as a level 5 vital article. Wikipedia has rated the article as Start-Class.
