Then, they search for accomplices, those who aided or abetted the crime in some way. Determining the motive, is the next crucial part. Was it a crime of passion, a desperate act for financial gain, or perhaps part of a larger conspiracy involving multiple people? In the end, a suspect's alibi can be a powerful piece of evidence, either solidifying their innocence or casting further doubt.
