Abstract
This study aims to examine the posttraumatic stress response characteristics experienced by crime scene investigators after conducting crime scene identification work, and their personal coping efforts. Additionally, the study aims to identify organizational support measures desired by crime scene investigators through qualitative research, in order to provide differentiated support. A focused group interview was conducted in July 2022 with nine crime scene investigators, and additional information was supplemented through phone interviews when necessary. Six main themes emerged: painful scenes, unstable daily routines, challenging organizational aspects, personal coping efforts, supportive colleagues and seniors, and psychological support systems. Based on the findings, a psychological support system for the psychological pain of crime scene investigators was discussed, divided into stages of intervention.
