Some people see crimes and then talk to Joe. They tell him what the criminal looks like. Then Joe draws a picture of the criminal, and the police put it in newspapers and on television to find him.He wants to draw a good picture of each criminal, but this job is sometimes difficult. Many people dont always see things the same way so they may describe the same person differently. Also, they dont always remember well. “The criminal is of medium built and young.
