Best Answer
When a person is brought in for questioning, but is not yet under arrest, the police detectives question the person. However, preliminary questions might be asked by any police officer, for example, a Patrol Officer who pulls over a person suspected of drunk driving.

Once a person has been arrested, the situation might change dramatically. If the person does not "lawyer up" by requesting a lawyer, the police can continue questioning the person. The police are supposed to Mirandize (give the Miranda Rights) to a person before questioning or arrest, but sometimes officers fail to Mirandize.

If a person asks for a lawyer, all questioning must stop until the lawyer arrives.

I believe a Prosecutor or Assistant Prosecutor can also ask a suspect questions as a "Court Officer". But, again, Miranda is important.

Without being given one's Miranda rights, any disclosures or verbal and written statements a person makes could be thrown out and barred from trial evidence.

Another View: SHORT ANSWER to the question that was asked: ANY investigating officer assigned to the case, regardless of title or rank, can question an arrestee.
