After a crime has been committed, local police officers investigate the scene. They will file a police report which is reviewed by that polices station, open for review by higher stations, and contains information that will be used in the FBI's Uniform Crime Report. They will report to the prosecutor the results of thieir investigation and testify at the trial as witnesses who can explain what evidence was uncovered and how it was uncovered.
