How do reword a wordy sentence?

The best way to go about rewording a sentence that has too many words is:

  • check for and eliminate obvious repetitions. This may be repeated words, two or more phrases that have the same meaning, etc.

  • check to remove words whose absence does not reduce the meaning of the sentence nor improve it. An example of such a word from the question is the word "Crime". It is known to all that investigations usually happen when there is a crime. Hence there is no need to include it.
