The purpose of the article is to determine the typical forms of special knowledge used by investigators in the investigation of intentional destruction or damage to the property of a law enforcement officer, their capabilities and some problematic issues that arise during their implementation. Methodology. To achieve this goal, special research methods were used, namely: the method of system analysis, comparative law, system-structural, as well as general scientific methods, including the dialectical method and the method of analogy. The scientific novelty of the study is that based on the analysis of investigative and judicial practice of investigation of intentional destruction or damage to property of a law enforcement officer for the first time identified those forms of special knowledge that are most often used by investigators to solve certain tactical tasks. Possibilities and mistakes made by investigators during the appointment of some forensic examinations, including: commodity, including automotive, trasological, fire and technical, examination of materials of substances and products are revealed separately. Emphasis is placed on the important role of specialists in conducting site inspections and inspections of objects, ie those investigative (search) actions that are most common for criminal proceedings in the category under study. Conclusions. The scientific position is substantiated that experts and specialists are carriers of special knowledge, the use of which is the main guarantee of ensuring an effective investigation of intentional destruction or damage to the property of a law enforcement officer. Typical types of forensic examinations, including complex ones, are appointed, which are appointed by investigators during the investigation of crimes of the mentioned type. It is emphasized that the main factor that plays a crucial role in the rapid and complete resolution of the issues raised by the investigator to the forensic expert is the provision of complete initial data both on the event that took place and on the objects sent for investigation. It is substantiated that specialists in criminal proceedings initiated in connection with the commission of intentional destruction or damage to the property of a law enforcement officer are most often involved in site inspections, inspections of objects, searches, investigative experiments
