Fire Investigations
The objective of a fire investigation is to determine the origin and cause of the fire. Interviews must be conducted, evidence collected, and comprehensive reports of all findings prepared. To complete these tasks, the fire investigator must know and understand the rules governing proper crime scene techniques, interviewing strategies, and the technical aspects of fire science.
If during the initial stages of inquiry, evidence of criminal activity is uncovered, the fire investigator must shift to his secondary role: to identify and move against those responsible.
A fire investigator who has reason to believe that arson was committed is obligated to develop the case to its fullest extent which may include filing criminal charges and serving as witnesses for the prosecution.
Juvenile Fire Stoppers
The Juvenile FireStoppers program is designed to provide education and intervention for children who have talked about, played with or set a fire.
The goal is to prevent children from causing another fire or to prevent injury, death or damage to property. The Juvenile FireStoppers program is specifically designed to:
- Help prevent further fire play with the juvenile
- Inform you and your child about the dangers of fire
- Discover and correct safety issues that may be in your home
