Criminal Investigation Division

The Criminal Investigation Division (CID) has the responsibility of developing information leading to the arrest of criminal offenders, preparing cases, recovering stolen property, locating missing persons, focusing attention on family violence and providing services to victims of violent crime. CID currently has ten investigators, a sergeant and a lieutenant. The Crime Prevention Unit, Identification Technician, Crime Scene Technicians, Juvenile/Gang Investigator, Victim Specialist, and a secretary are also assigned to CID. Additionally, an investigator is assigned to the local Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) task force.

The cases followed by investigators fall into one of two broad categories: Crimes Against Persons or Crimes Against Property. Investigators typically concentrate in one category, but may be assigned cases from either category as workloads dictate.
