First Aired: Fri, Oct 6, 2000

A committed assemblage of forensic investigators at the Las Vegas Crime Lab works to solve often horrible crimes in Sin City. Heading up the graveyard shift (an appropriate term in this case) is supervisor D.B. Russell, a “Left Coast” Sherlock Holmes who devours crime novels. Members of Russell’s team include Julie Finlay, Nick Stokes, Sara Sidle (the team’s moral compass), Greg Sanders, and Morgan Brody. The investigative unit works closely with Capt. Jim Brass — an experienced investigator who is a protector of CSI — Dr. Al Robbins — medical examiner — and quirky lab technician David Hodges. Previous leaders of the group include Gil Grissom and Dr. Ray Langston.
