How do i unlock iphone of my dead family member without reset or lose data because the police need it to investigate?? Im not sure if they backup. They do write down their passcodes in the book , but its seem like they just changed it before they die. ( cuz its not work )
If you do not know the passcode, but you suspect they stored their information in the Cloud, How to request access to a deceased family member's Apple accounts - Apple Support

You don't. If you don't know the passcode, there is no way in. The data on the phone is encrypted. Without the passcode, it is unreadable.
Too many incorrect entries will disable the phone. The only option when that happens is to restore iOS, completely erasing any data that was there.
Not as odd as you think, without the passcode the police can't open it and Apple cannot help them and they will have a difficult time getting a warrant if they cannot articulate what they are searching for. Fishing expeditions don't qualify for a warrant.

Was iCloud being Used?
If things were syncing with iCloud, then lots my reside in there🤔! Go to https://www.icloud.com
If the police need the information why don't they have the iPhone?
They have the phone at first , but give its back because they wanted the family member to unlock it . ( cuz they doesn’t know the passcode obv)
Not sure where you're from, but that would be odd.
Btw , you think the police would be able to bypass the passcode if they have warrant??
Exactly why it's odd.
Maybe. The bigger issue seems to be that they don't need the device for anything.
Possibly. It depends on their budget, because the tools to do it are very expensive.
