Usually the case ends up with Detectives. Initially it may be the police officer (s) or constable (s) who receives the call to the scene then, if its a heavy matter, he/they may call in the D's. Following this it could the "Scientific" (CSI) guys and a whole heap of other guys may jump on the case...e.g. fingerprints folk (if they are separate from Scientific or CSI) then maybe firearms guys and many other sections including police intelligence services, or, as in some parts of the world, Special branches. Mainly initially its the Detectives.

A person who investigates a crime is called a detective or to be more specific, a homicide detective. It's the job of detectives to investigate the crime scene, interview witnesses, gather evidence, talk to CSI officers and put together a case that can be presented to the District Attorney.
