Criminal and procedural cognition is intended to recreate a picture of an event that occurred in the past, by establishing a number of circumstances directly enshrined in the law. But the subjects of the activities to identify and investigate crimes do not initially interact directly with the objects that left this or that mapping, but transform the significant evidentiary information from their sources. Already then, by applying a number of criminal procedural procedures, an independent evidence appears in the case. This is how the process of transforming information into evidence takes place. In this case, as they accumulate, they act as arguments, constitute a body of evidence, the purpose of which is to justify the adoption of a legitimate, motivated, consistent criminal procedure decision.
