CSI EXPOSED!

DISCLAIMER: I don't own them just have some fun with them.

Based loosely on "I Like To Watch."

Chapter 1

I was thrilled when my producer asked me to head up a documentary on the one group of people who go mostly unnoticed in our society. Of course we all see police in action; we've seen the shows on television where camera crews ride with the police. This time it's something different. I'm heading up a crew that will go behind the scenes, into the action of Crime Scene Investigation. Sounds very actiony doesn't it? No? Well this is what my producer said and I quote: "Interview each CSI at some stage; the Sherriff has given his blessing for you to follow them to crime scenes, get as much useful information as you can but do not EVER cross the yellow tape or you will get your ass fired, along with mine."

Sounds easy isn't it. It's not. You see here in Las Vegas we are lucky in one way, the crime lab here is second only to the FBI lab, however it is divided into three shifts, Day who cover 8am to 4pm, Swing who covers from 4pm to midnight and then Night shift or Grave Shift who cover Midnight to 8am. We can't film all three shifts; we have to choose one shift to cover. The Sherriff himself recommended Night Shift, as they are the best team he has. I guess my wife won't be talking to me for a while since I'll be out every night for a while.

The next part was tricky; we had a list of names of the entire shift and their positions. Each one had to be interviewed intelligently as they were scientists and investigators all rolled into one. We were cautioned not to ask personal questions beyond the scope of normal. We had to stay in their good graces, and work with the police as well or we'd be shut down fast.

I looked down the list of names and only one surprised me. Dr Gil Grissom, Entomologist, CSI Supervisor. Now he is a very well known professional man, yet gets down in the trenches to investigate crime.

Catherine Willows, CSI 3, Assistant Supervisor, specialist in Blood spatter analysis. Wow, how do you specialize in blood spatter? Ok that goes in my question book.

Sara Sidle, CSI 3, specialist in materials and element analysis. Ok what material and element types?

Nick Stokes, CSI 3, specialist in hair and fibre analysis. That is something I can understand.

Warrick Brown, CSI 3, specialist in Audio Visual Analysis. Now that sounds interesting.

Greg Sanders, CSI 3, former DNA lab technician.

I think they sound like a rather astonishing group of intelligent people, and they clean up the garbage of crime. This is getting interesting now. Ok gotta run, I'll get some sleep and pick up the camera crew tomorrow then off to solve some crime. Oh before I forget. One last thing you need to know, my name.

I'm William Petersen, and I'm doing an expose on CSI in Las Vegas.

A/N Sorry for such a short intro, the other chapters will be longer. I just got a weird idea and ran with it.
