I want to be an investigator?

I want to be a forensic investigator for people who murder children , what would you recommend?

• I love kids and hate to see them go and I want to do anything in my power to get that killer, abuser or what ever you call it. I want to help save a life. Im a Scorpio and fascinated with death and birth so where death and life comes in place. I also want to speak to the killer and get him to confess so what do you think i should major in to accomplish these goals ?

• Answer:

  If you become an investigator you would work on all cases, not just children. And don't believe the tv shows - in real life they don't talk to the suspects or killers, they don't carry guns, it doesn't work like that at all. You would visit crime scenes and investigate physical evidence, but you'd have no contact with people involved, you deal with what's left behind and take the evidence for examination. You don't go chasing after anyone. http://investigation.discovery.com/investigation/forensics/reality/reality.html If you want to help children why don't you become a child advocate or work with abused children. Edit: Perhaps you need to read what I said again. Forensic investigators or criminalists deal with physical evidence only, they do not work with killers, they do not speak to them. http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/criminalist If you want to speak with killers, criminal or forensic psychology would be the field. http://www.criminalpsychologist.net/
