... a person investigating crimes. It is... a term that may lead to better cooperation between investigative personnel and patrol officers. "Criminal investigator" is a better term than "detective" to describe the men and women in police agencies who pick up crimes unsolved by the patrol forces... The term "detective" appears to emphasize the detection of crime--its discovery--or the detection and identification of persons who have committed crimes. Many detectives and investigators work in civilian dress and therefore are commonly called "plainclothes officers" or "plainclothes men". 1, record 2, English, - criminal%20investigator

[Personne] qui effectue les enquêtes sur les crimes survenus dans son territoire. [L'enquêteur] doit travailler de concert avec les patrouilleurs-enquêteurs, les conseiller et les aider. Le terme "détective", d'origine britannique, désigne le policier chargé des enquêtes ou des investigations. Bien qu'il recouvre la notion d'"enquêteur" (agent de la police publique), il désigne plus particulièrement le "détective privé". Sauf dans cette expression, c'est un terme vieilli. Quant au terme "enquêteur criminel" formé sur le modèle de "police criminelle" et de "commissaire criminel", il pourrait également être proposé comme synonyme d'"enquêteur". 1, record 2, French, - enqu%C3%AAteur
