Criminal Investigations

The Investigations Division currently has 18 Detectives responsible for conducting follow-up investigations and initiating investigations involving several specific types of cases. During the process of investigations the investigator will interview witnesses, victims, and suspects. The investigator may respond to scenes to determine exact nature of law violations; search for evidence, interview victims and suspects on scene, and prepare detailed reports of findings. Investigators prepare detailed reports for the District Attorney's Office to effectively prosecute the case in court. Investigators work closely with other agencies to effectively solve crime, share information and intelligence and assist in the apprehension of wanted persons.
 
The Criminal Investigations Division is divided into teams that cover all types of crime to include the following:
  • Major Crimes Investigators are assigned to investigate Homicide, Death Investigation, Robbery, Felony Assaults and Kidnappings.
