Which brings us back to the classic 'which of these people are cops at 
all' thread.

Horatio seems to have been a cop before he was a CSI, but he now 
corrects people that call him a cop, even though he has the rank of LT.  
Although doesn't he identify himself as Miami-Dade PD?  Which should 
make him a county cop?

boaVista as far as I can tell is a crazy incompetent out of control 
civilian.

Wolfe, we saw in uniform before he joined.

Tripp we've seen in uniform, but he's not a CSI.

Calleigh I have no idea.

Delko I have no idea, but I seem to recall somebody saying he used to be 
a cop.

Alexx, not a cop.

Speedle - no idea, but he didn't even practice basic gun maintenance.

Valera - god knows.  I've been waiting for her to start falsley accusing 
people and packing a gun too.
