Thanh tra Lestrade () là một nhân vật hư cấu và được coi là địch thủ nhưng chưa bao giờ xứng tầm của Sherlock Holmes.
Chân dung
Lestrade được mô tả là thanh tra viên Scotland Yard. Ông ta gầy, lùn, mặt mũi đen đúa xấu xí nhưng vô cùng tinh ranh. Tuy nhiên, trái bộ dạng khó ưa, Lestrade tỏ ra hoàn toàn vô dụng trong kĩ năng phá án và thường phán quyết sai be bét khiến đồng nghiệp hết sức khó chịu.

Lestrade thường bị Sherlock Holmes kín đáo dùng làm công cụ cởi nút các vụ phức tạp vì lí lịch cảnh sát của ông ta, nhờ vậy, những "công tích" của Lestrade thường xuyên được báo giới ca tụng, còn Sherlock Holmes chìm vào bóng tối.
