Frequently Asked Questions about pi-investigation

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I maintain chain of custody for digital evidence during a private investigation?

Chain of custody for private investigation is maintained by documenting lawful collection processes, custody logs, and hash chains to preserve evidentiary-grade artifacts. This ensures collected OSINT and due-diligence materials remain admissible.

What is McMahon's 10-section reporting structure for PI reports?

McMahon's 10-section PI report structure is a standardized format for private investigation reporting that ensures evidentiary rigor. It organizes findings, OSINT data, and due-diligence results into comprehensive, legally compliant sections.

How do I check jurisdiction licensure requirements for a licensed private investigator engagement?

Jurisdiction licensure requirements for licensed private investigator engagements are verified through built-in checks and ethical bounds references. These ensure OSINT collection and due-diligence workflows comply with regional legal frameworks.

Can I use OSINT workflows for due-diligence investigations and still produce evidentiary-grade artifacts?

OSINT workflows for due-diligence investigations can produce evidentiary-grade artifacts when paired with strict chain-of-custody discipline and hash chains. The process integrates lawful collection guidance to maintain evidentiary standards.

What are the limitations of private investigation tools regarding unlawful activities?

Private investigation tools limit activities by refusing unlawful actions and enforcing ethical bounds through mandatory references. They focus on lawful collection, OSINT, and due-diligence workflows to ensure all generated PI reports remain legally compliant.

Do I need to load legal and ethical bounds references before starting a chain-of-custody documentation process?

Loading legal and ethical bounds references before starting chain-of-custody documentation is required to establish a structured engagement posture. This ensures investigative workflows align with jurisdictional licensure and evidentiary standards.
