Abstract
The article discusses the current problems of theory and practice of appointment and production of situational examinations in special conditions on the initial stage of crime investigation. There is justified the non-standard nature of the incident scene inspection being actually post-criminal and significantly different from the criminal one which is faced by the detective in special conditions of the investigation. Arguments are given for the need to appoint situational examinations in such conditions. Statistical data are provided indicating the impossibility of the investigator to carry out organizational and tactical actions intended to obtain forensically significant material information. Recommendations are given on the appointment of situational and comprehensive examinations in order to increase the effectiveness of evidentiary information obtaining.
