    What does the term "full investigation" mean as opposed to "investigation"? Is it a media term or a term used by An Garda Síochána?

    For example: "A full investigation is under way and anyone with information is asked to contact gardaí."

    Its a media term.

    Gardaí are investigating is used for lesser crimes and collisions etc. A full investigation sounds dramatic and the media use it for more serious crimes.

    Its like when the Media say "Armed Police arrested the man" in a country where all the police are armed?

    Purely for effect.
