A good detective searches those originals rather than relying on online summaries, and confirms identity so records aren't attributed to the wrong person.

Yes, within the law. Mobile surveillance can follow a routine into Tucson and back, from public places. Plans account for travel time, and work in another state is handled by a detective licensed there.

Yes. People rarely stay inside municipal lines. Work that starts in Saddlebrooke can continue in nearby communities such as Catalina, Oracle, Oro Valley, planned as one engagement and carried out by detectives licensed for each place the work goes.
