Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The body of a deceased person at a crime scene should not be moved until a medicolegal investigator arrives and takes custody of the body. Medicolegal investigators are trained to handle the remains and will take steps to preserve and document any evidence present on or near the body before it is moved. Crime scene investigators may also be involved in the investigation but are not responsible for taking custody of the body. First responders and medical technicians are typically involved in providing medical assistance and would not take custody of the body.
