The reality is very different: Criminal investigations can take a very long time, and people can be swept up in one without their knowledge. The police are under no obligation to inform you when they investigate you. Whether you’re suspected of crimes directly or you’re associated with someone else being investigated, there are signs you can spot that indicate the cops are looking at you. Even if you’re innocent of any crime, knowing that you’re under investigation means you can take steps to protect yourself, like consulting a lawyer and being cognizant of your rights against improper searches of your property. Here are the clues that you might be under investigation by the cops.
Unknown vehicles. Are there unfamiliar vehicles parked near your home or work? Seeing the same strange cars or other vehicles repeatedly parked nearby could be a sign of surveillance—either by cops or thieves.
Trackers. A GPS tracker on your car might have been placed by the police.
Associates arrested or investigated. If people you have a connection to are charged with crimes or are being openly investigated, it’s very possible your name will at least come up as part of that investigation. If people around you are being targeted by the cops one by one, you might be caught up in it all.
Hesitation to associate. Are friends and business associates suddenly unavailable and/or reluctant to talk to you? It might indicate that the police have questioned them about you, prompting them to distance themselves.
Overt signs you're being investigated
While the police often investigate in the background without alerting the subjects, there are some very obvious signs that you’re under investigation:
Associates interviewed. Similarly, if the police are questioning your acquaintances or business associates, it’s a clear sign that you might be under investigation—especially if you’re the common denominator between disparate people.
Frozen accounts. If your finances go from wonky to literally frozen so you can’t access any of your money, it’s often due to a criminal investigation that leads in some way to your finances. If your credit cards and bank account are suddenly inaccessible, you’ve probably been under investigation for some time.
What to do if you think you're being investigated
Lawyer up. Whether you’re innocent or guilty—and even if you have no idea why you might be the target of a police investigation—you should immediately consult an attorney regarding your suspicions.
Lock up. The police are required to obtain a warrant to search your property. In the absence of one, don’t allow law enforcement to enter your home or business.
