The Dickinson Police Department Criminal Investigations
Division (CID) is supervised by Lieutenant Rick Shirey, and staffed
by two senior patrol officers and one patrol officer. Those selected for assignment
to CID are chosen for their knowledge, skills, and abilities they
exhibited as patrol officers and for their desire to work in the field
of criminal investigations. Along with handling regular case assignments,
each officer develops specific areas of expertise.
All investigators are highly trained in such areas as interviewing,
death investigations, forensics, crime scenes, fingerprinting, surveillance,
and much more. While the advances in forensic
techniques you hear so much about on television are of great use,
our most important asset is the concern, help, and good will of
citizens who provide information about crimes and criminals. We
could not solve a single case without their help!
Illegal drug activity is a primary concern of the department. In 2007 with the help of the Edward Byrne Grant and the Dickinson City Commission, a full-time narcotics officer was assigned to the South Sakakawea Narcotics Task Force. The department will be required to hire, assign, and rotate officers within this position. The Stark County Sheriff's Department also assigns one of its deputies to the Task Force. Together, the Task Force has been the strongest in years and continues to fight the war on drugs. The following officers make up CID:
