Murder investigations during the middle ages

by [deleted]

Hi,

How where murders investigated and resolved during the middle ages (around the 9th century).

Did they have the equivalent of the detectives and investigators we have today and if not who was in charge of solving crimes?

What tools and methods where they using? Did they put any efforts in solving crimes if the victim was just a random peasant?

I understand it was probably a lot easier to get away with murder back then but I am curious about the investigation process they used.

Thanks.
