Researching and analyzing intelligence can give a good outlook on crimes and help develop more leads, the police can search a data base for the area and see who is committing crimes, how, when, where and why, from this they may be able to make links to the crime committed on the victim, they could be dealing with the same person who has not yet been caught. Or if there is a recent or long running trend of the same crimes being committed.
It looks at crime problems in the whole area, or individually to form a bases on whether the area is prone to criminal activity, or any anomalies in the data statistics. These intelligence analyse's will provide the police with strategic overall long term plans and tactical specific short term plans of how to deal with new aspects of the case accordingly.
This information can be extremely useful in cases such as child abductions, the police can look at and see if there's been an increasing number of child abductions in a specific geographical area, a specific age range which can be linked to primary schools and targeted areas.
After the first arrest was unsuccessful, the police started looking into the prowler evidence and found a string of violent assaults and rape attacks in the surrounding area, to both women and young girls.. After interviewing Sion's daughter Annie, she says that when they left the back garden gate was shut and when returning home it was open. This could of meant the prowler was watching and entered through the back gate.
This stage, if applicable to the crime, can provide more links and more follow up leads, as explained in stage 5.
