Anna is one of three crime scene investigators in Sörmland. Unlike forensic technicians who work in the search for traces of serious violent crimes, a criminal technician goes out on everyday crimes. It could be home burglaries or thefts.

- We have another education and some other resources in our cars to secure tracks that hopefully can be used in the investigation, says Anna Zinoviev.

Hard to recruit

According to Anna, they must be eight crime scene investigators who must be located in Eskilstuna, Strängnäs, Katrineholm and Nyköping. But today they are only three that will cover all cases in the entire county. It has been difficult to recruit people.

- The number has been halved, so we don't get as much as we want, she says.

What is needed for more people to come back?

- For me, it was primarily about getting a reasonable salary and being able to develop in my role, she says.
