Law Enforcement Code Of EthicsAs a Law Enforcement Offi cer, my fundamental duty is to service mankind; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against oppression or intimidation, and the peaceful against violence or disorder; and to respect the constitutional rights of all men to liberty, equality and justice.

I will keep my private life unsullied as an example to all; maintain courageous calm in the face of danger, scorn, or ridicule; develop self-restraint; and be constantly mindful of the welfare of others. Honest in thought and deed in both my personal and offi cial life, I will be exemplary in obeying the laws of the land and the regulations of my department. Whatever I see or hear of a confi dential nature or that is confi ded in me in my offi cial capacity will be kept secret unless the revelation is necessary in the performance of my duty.

I will never act offi ciously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, animosities, or friendships to infl uence my decisions. With no compromise for crime and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law courteously and appropriately without fear or favor, malice or ill will, never employing unnecessary force or violence and never accepting gratuities.

I recognize the badge of my offi ce as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of police service. I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before God to my chosen profession . . .law enforcement.

The Toledo Police Academy 36th class, appointed March 30, 1979, is one of the few classes that does not have an offi cial graduation picture. The day they graduated from the academy, Toledo Police offi cers went on strike. The walkout lasted 48 hours and was marked by numerous incidents of arson throughout the city. The city was eventually granted an injunction that forced offi cers to either go back on the job or face fi nes.

Chief Derrick Diggs was appointed to the Toledo Police Department on July 12, 1977. He was promoted to the rank of Sergeant in 1986, Lieutenant in 1990, Captain in 1995, and Deputy Chief in 2001. He was appointed to the position of Chief of Police on October 21, 2011.

A s the new Chief of Police for the Toledo Police Department, I am proud to present the 2011 Toledo

Police Annual Report, titled “Just the Facts.”

With the opening of the Toledo Police Museum in June of 2011, the department has uncovered a tremendous wealth of facts untouched for decades. This Annual Report chronicles the efforts made by countless volunteers to bring the museum to fruition (pages 4-9) and compares many interesting facts throughout from the 1928 annual report. The 1928 report is one of the oldest in-tact reports the museum currently owns.

This report also hints to future advances in technology that I consider a cornerstone to my service as Chief of Police (page 27). Capitalizing on new technological innovations will afford the Toledo Police Department the opportunity to prevent future crimes, optimize internal operations and personnel allocations, and aide in detecting and solving chronic problems.

I began my career with the Toledo Police Department nearly 35 years ago, fulfi lling a range of assignments. Regardless of my position or assignment, my goal throughout my career has always been to forge a stronger department and a healthier, safer community.

I take seriously the responsibilities and accountability that comes with this position. Being provided the opportunity throughout my career to learn from, work with, and now, lead the men and women of this agency, I have observed and developed a tremendous amount of integrity, respect, and honor from having worn this uniform.

Because of my experiences, I know all too well the challenges and obligations that are set before me, and I am prepared. The Toledo Police Department has a strong and proud history of service to this city and the people who live, work, and play here. Since 1867, offi cers have willingly risked their lives in the performance of their duties to protect the residents of Toledo.

I am this city’s 39th Chief of Police, and the men and women I lead courageously carry this same obligation.

A Letter FromChief Derrick Diggs

Above: Chief Mike Navarre at the grand opening of the Toledo Police Museum on June 2, 2011.

Michael J. NavarreMichael J. Navarre grew up in Toledo in the Point Place area. He attended the University of Toledo where he acquired an Associate Degree in Law Enforcement Technology and a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice.

Mike was appointed to the Toledo Police Department on July 12, 1977, and served a total of 34 years. He was promoted to the rank of Sergeant in 1982, Lieutenant in 1988, Captain in 1991, and Deputy Chief in 1994. He was appointed to the position of Chief of Police in September 1998. With the exception of the time span from January 4, 2007, through June 27, 2007, when Jack Smith served as Chief of Police, Mike Navarre served in that capacity until his retirement on October 21, 2011.

During Chief Navarre’s tenure with the Toledo Police Department, he received several awards including the Medal of Valor, the Professional Service Award and the Toledo Police Command Offi cer of the Year Award.

Uniforms and procedures have changed much over the years, but the dedication to this department runs strong in the Navarre family.

Above: The building at 2201 Kenwood Boulevard once housed the Ottawa Park Nature Center, but sat empty for over two years before it became home to the Toledo Police Museum. Construction began on Nov. 3, 2010 when Sergeant Ed Mack organized a small work crew to remove a seating area around the fi replace and a shelving unit in the kitchen area.

Above: Retired Sergeant Mary Ann Rose was a constant fi xture at the museum, cleaning the place from top to bottom and fi nding bunches of work for her husband, retired Offi cer Denny Rose.Below: Sergeant Tom Kosmyna designed and created the fi rearms exhibit. He also planned which weapons would be removed from storage in the armory and displayed in the exhibit.

Toledo Police MuseumBecomes a Reality

On May 13, 2010, Chief Mike Navarre handed Offi cer Beth Cooley a note after a staff meeting: Call retired Offi cer Dick Parton about opening a museum. Dick suggested calling retired offi cer Ed Kusina. Within days, a meeting was set up with retirees Jim Jones, Bill Kellar, George Wagner and Ed Kusina to discuss the possibility of re-opening a museum.

From there, it was full steam ahead.

The vision of a police museum was an idea that initially seemed impossible to bring to fruition. Items from the previous police museum were still stored in various locations, untouched for over seventeen years. A new home for the museum had not been secured. How would it be funded? Does anybody care enough to help?

But they did care! With the hard work and dedication from a lot of great volunteers, the Toledo Police Museum opened to the public with a spectacular Grand Opening Celebration on June 2, 2011.

Most of the items on display were found by the late Offi cer Ken Deck, who amassed them during his lifetime to help preserve them. He founded the fi rst police museum in 1988 in the Safety Building, but it lasted only a few years before Chief Galvin repurposed the room in 1994, and the artifacts were put into storage.

The former Ottawa Park Nature Center, which is situated next door to the Ottawa Park Substation, was suggested as a possible location by Captain Jim O’Bryant. The beautiful building had sat empty for a couple of years. Chief Michael Navarre and Mayor Michael Bell were completely behind the project and offered their assistance to help make the Center the new home for The Toledo Police Museum.

The museum has been a great success, welcoming over 2,000 visitors during the fi rst six months of operation. They have welcomed many tour groups and even hosted a Fall picnic in 2011 in honor of our police offi cers.

He made many trips to Mr. Lightbulb and cleaned each of the fi lthy light fi xtures before he replaced the bulbs.Middle Bottom: Bricklayer John Buchholz donated countless hours to the museum. A talented artist, he meticulously worked on the posts for the museum sign designed by retired Detective Bob Poiry. He also secured the storeroom by bricking in a window on the rear of the building.Bottom Right: Offi cer Beth Cooley begins stripping years of dirt and wax buildup from the fl oors.

Above: On May 19, 2011, only 18 days before the grand opening, it did not appear that the museum would be ready to open on schedule. A door large enough to accommodate the 1948 clone police wagon had to be beautifully crafted to fi t the architecture of the building. The dust caused by the late construction halted progress on the exhibits and temporarily terminated any cleaning efforts.Below: Finally, on May 31, 2011, retired Offi cer Bill Kellar rolled the newly restored 1948 police wagon into the museum.Page 7, far right bottom corner: Retired police offi cer Fred Johnson and wife Natalie contacted retired Sergeant Virge Oliver for some history on his beloved police dog, “Sarge.” From pictures Virge provided, Detective Terry Cousino painted a concrete statue, donated at a discount price by Bombrys Ornamental Concrete, to look just like him.

Toledo Police Chiefs

Chief Louis J. Haas

The notebook Chief Haas used when he was a patrol offi cer is on display in the Toledo Police Museum. His writings give a genuine insight into what it was like to work the beat in the 1920s.

Chief Haas’ family has also donated a signifi cant collection of newspaper articles the Chief had clipped and organized during his tenure.

City of Toledo by Beats and Sectors

DISTRICTS: An area whose boundary represents the span of control of a district station and its corresponding dispatch talk-group. There are two districts in the City of Toledo. SECTORS: Geographical areas contained within districts. Sectors are generally divided by natural barriers, such as the Maumee River, the expressway system or the rail lines. There are eight sectors in the city. BEATS: Areas contained within sectors, and are used for assigning units to a specifi c area within a sector. Each sector contains two beats, and there are a total of 16 beats on the map.UNITS: Police offi cer(s) assigned to a particular beat. They may be bike, foot, harbor or mounted patrol, motorcycle or vehicle units, etc.The Unit Identifi cation System uses numerical designations. These designations then compose the geographic areas which divide the city into two districts:Central District – Sectors 1, 2, 3 & 4 – Central Talk GroupScott Park District – Sectors 5, 6, 7 & 8 – South Talk Group

The Unit Identifi cation System is a geographic-oriented document that depicts the location of the 8 sectors and 16 beats within the City of Toledo.

“History never looks like historywhen you are living through it.

-John W. Gardner

“Just the facts, ma’am.”-Sergeant Joe Friday, Dragnet

1928 Toledo Police Annual ReportThe 1928 Annual Report is one of the earliest complete Toledo Police Department annual reports the Toledo Police Museum has on record. The report was submitted by Chief of Police Louis J. Haas to Mr. J. R. Cowell, Director of Public Safety, on January 10, 1929.

The 93-page document is typed on onion skin paper that has grown brittle with time, but the information heldinside is invaluable to understanding the department’s role in this city and defi ning who we are today.

We live in a time of rapid change and technological advancement. The offi cers who walked the streets of Toledo before us lived in such drastically different times we would be incapable of understanding theiraccomplishments and struggles without the aid of items like the 1928 Annual Report.

Our view of history shapes the way we view the present. By constructing an accurate picture of our unique combined experience as a police department, we hope to fi nd clues to our present condition.

The 1928 Annual Report is exhaustive in its recording of the facts of that year. Fun to read (but possibly uncomfortable for the offi cers involved) were the scores of all sworn members annual fi rearms pistol qualifi cations. The score of 240 or higher out of a possible 300 was considered Expert, 210 to 239 was Sharpshooter, and 180 was Marksman. There were no perfect scores, but many were in the Expert and Sharpshooter category. The highest score was a near perfect 296 shot by Offi cer F. T. Armstrong. The lowest score was a 29.

Wherever possible, comparisons between the 1929 and 2011 annual reports are included in this report.

1928 Motor PoolThe following equipment was purchased and placed in service:5 Indian-Ace Motorcycles5 Harley-Davidson Motorcycles6 Whippet SedansThere are 3 Federal-Knight Patrol Wagons in service: 1 at Central Station, 1 at Lagrange Station and 1 at the East Side Station. They were purchased in February of 1925 and have an average of 60,000 miles each, and are well worn. The up-keep is exorbitant due to the age and hard usage. One of these makes a trip each day (Sunday excepted) to The House of Correction, Whitehouse, Ohio, and usually carries more than the capacity which it originally was built for.We have 5 speed cars in service; 2 Cadillac Touring at Central Station, 1 Willys-Knight Touring at East Side Station, 1 Willys-Knight Touring at No. 3 (Lagrange) Station, and 1 Willys-Knight at No. 4 (Monroe and Bancroft) Station. These autos were purchased in 1926, and have an average mileage of 17,000 miles on each.The 6 new Whippet Sedans arein Scout Service. We have 14 Whippet Touring cars in service . . . they are in deplorable condition and the constant repairs to keep these autos in service is very expensive.We have 9 Fords, 1 Pontiac, and 2 Chevrolets in service in the Detective Bureau, Vice and Liquor Squads, Women’s Bureau, and special duty. These autos were confi scated by the department, but none of these cars are in good condition. We also have 2 Cadillac Touring cars which were bought in 1922 and have a mileage beyond 90,000 miles, and are used only in emergencies.

“We are woefully lacking in ambulance service for which we are called upon daily . . . At present, stretchers carried in patrol autos are . . . badly stained with blood and grit that is ground into the fabric and is impossible to remove. Service of this kind is highly unsanitary. Because of the construction of the stretcher, the victim of an accident must be placed on the fl oor of the machine and is subjected to every jar resulting from that vehicle’s passage over uneven pavements enroute to the hospital.”

Above: Chief Mike Navarre, Deputy Chief Diana Ruiz-Krause, Deputy Chief Mike Murphy and Captain Jim O’Bryant participated in the 24th annual Blade Corporate and Community Spelling Bee on Thursday, January 26th at the Park Inn.The spelling bee raised a record $49,870 for Read for Literacy, Toledo’s volunteer literacy agency. As usual, the good-natured rivalry between fi re and police was alive and well. Police proved victorious, out-scoring Fire 16-8.Bottom Right: Inspections/Accreditation Unit: Offi cer Sandy Ceglarek, Inspector Shane Loxterkamp (Edmonton Police Service), Chief Derrick Diggs, Lt. Teia Poulin (North Carolina Highway Patrol), and Sergeant Lisa Marshall meet at the closing of the 2011 Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA) Re-accreditation process.CALEA was incorporated in 1980. The Commission’s overall purpose is to improve the delivery of law enforcement services, primarily through a law enforcement agency accreditation program organized and maintained in the public interest.The Commission established and maintains 446 standards for law enforcement agencies that consider all administrative, management, and service-delivery aspects of the organization. The Toledo Police Department was awarded its initial accreditation in 2003.

1879 Photographs were initiated, but there was a limited use of photographs for criminal identifi cation.

1882 The Bertillion System was adopted for identifi cation of criminals. This was a system of measurements, as well as notation of all scars and marks on a prisoner’s body. These measurements included almost every part of the body including the circumference of the head and arm span. All scars and marks on the body were listed in detail.

1903 A Rogues Gallery was established to keep track of known or suspected criminals. At this time the department did away with the Bertillion System. The suspects were carded and photographed. The photos were then kept on fi le with information about the subject. These photos were shown to victims to help them identify their assailants.

1905 Patrolman Richard F. McKay bought a camera with his own funds and began taking pictures for record keeping. This was the fi rst offi cial “Records Bureau” photo. Patrolmen William D. Delahanty and McKay were placed in charge of the new Identifi cation and Information Bureau. They organized and kept track of the Rogue’s Gallery.

1906 Patrolman McKaybegan taking fi ngerprints of suspects. He was taught the procedure by Mrs. Mary E. Holland who had been instructed by Inspector Frost of the Finger Print Branch of New Scotland Yard.

1913 The Records Bureau became known as the Bureau of Identifi cation and Records. Richard

McKay became the Superintendent of the Bureau.

1917 The Director of Public Safety appointed four clerks to staff the Bureau of Identifi cation and Records.

1932 The Identifi cation Bureau opened nights. Previously it only functioned during day time hours.

1985 The division’s Records Section began computerizing its records.

In general, the Women’s Bureau of the Toledo Police Department deals with women and girls who are placed under arrest by any offi cer of the Department, or against whom reports are received, from parents or other citizens. The Bureau also deals with reports and charges made against men where minors are the victims.

Offi cers of the Women’s Bureau are required to inspect dance halls, skating rinks, cafes, penny arcades, public parks, railroad and bus station and other places frequented by women and girls.

I wish to call your attention to the hardship endured by our motorcycle men, who must ride against the bitter winds of winter. They enjoy no other protection than that of goggles and they fi nd it torturous to ride at any great speed or for any distance against the bitter cold.

I recommend that a suffi cient number of motorcycles be equipped with celluloid windshields for winter use.

OperationsThe Operations Division is the largest component of the Toledo Police Department. Sworn personnel assigned to the Operations Division handle the bulk of all 9-1-1 calls for service and are the backbone of the department, having direct contact with the citizens of our city on a daily basis.Of all incidents occurring in 2011, arguably one of the most dangerous situations that presented itself to Operations’ offi cers was the rampage of Brian Lipp.Lipp’s crime spree in late August and early September of 2011 culminated in a two-day, multi-jurisdictional manhunt. Lipp ultimately led law enforcement on a chase through two counties. The violent spree ended when Lipp was shot and killed by offi cers hours after contributing to a crash that killed an innocent motorist and injured two veteran offi cers.

The program was highly successful, helping to stem gang violence and reduce the numbers of weapons within the city.The Gang Task Force, in collaboration with the ATF, prosecuted 21 individuals for gun violations in the Federal Court System. This resulted in mandatory jail time for all offenders.

Events and Accomplishments

Above: (Thank you to Lieutenant Matthew Hertzfeld, Public Information Offi cer, Toledo Fire & Rescue Department, for providing the above photo.) The friendly, annual blood drive competition known as the Battle of the Badges was held December 19, 2011, through Saturday, January 7, 2012. It was another defeat for the Police Department, soundly losing to the Fire department. But the real winners are those who need blood during the holiday season when blood supply is traditionally low. Front Row: Chief Derrick Diggs, CEO for the American Red Cross Western Lake Erie Blood Services Region Donald Baker, Deputy Chief Tom Jaksetic, Captain George Kral, Offi cer Dave O’Brien. Back Row: Firefi ghter Brian Matuszynski, Lieutenant Mark King, Firefi ghter Greg Fraunhoffer, Firefi ghter Matt Conway and Sergeant Joe Heffernan.

22nd Annual North American Police Ski ChampionshipsDetective Bonnie Weis competedin the 22nd Annual North American Police Ski Championships in Snowmass, Colorado. She brought home the coveted Paul Mitchell Award and four gold medals. There were competitors from New Zealand, Austria, England, and Germany along side the offi cers from the USA.

12 Kids of Christmas2012 was the largest “12 Kids of

Christmas” to date. 20 children shopped with a Police Offi cer at Miejers and 10 children shopped at Toys R Us. Childers Limousine and McDonalds in Manhattan Plaza helped sponsor the event. Between donations and profi t made from the raffl e, the 2012 event is already paid for.

Mountain MentorsSergeant Greg Mahlman and Offi cer Bill Michalski remaininvolved in Mountain Mentors, a not-for-profi t faith-based mission program committed to impacting the lives of at-risk youth in our community. Adult role models serve as advocates for teens in the areas of education, work, family and court. Coupled with a wilderness experience, this year long mentoring program helps young people see themselves and society in a more positive light, shows them a bigger and better world.

Give Autism the BootThe Toledo Police Department was again involved in the Give Autism the Boot! Campaign. The primary concept of the campaign is to place local rescue workers along with civilian volunteers in high traffi c stores and strategically located intersections to collect donations. Since 2006, the Give Autism the Boot! Campaign has distributed over $600,000 to 18 different organizations that serve those affected by autism.

888 business places found with unlocked doors or open windows.

Semaphores, like the one shown above, replaced offi cers’ using arm signals to control traffi c at intersections. Fifteen were placed downtown on July 24, 1915, by Chief Henry J. Herbert. They were made by the National Supply Company of Toledo and stood 8 feet high. They were discarded in the 1940s.

Internal Affairs

1928 Internal Affairs ReportDiscipline in the uniformed rank of the department has been exceptionally good and is an indication of the confi dence of the rank and fi le in the administration of the department.Politics have been eliminated and every member has been placed on his merit. This method of administrating the affairs of the department is refl ected in their good conduct.Very few complaints of a serious nature have reached my offi ce since January, 1928. Upon investigating a number of these complaints, I have found in favor of the offi cer complained of.

The Emergency Services UnitThe Emergency Operations Group, which includes Lucas County EMA, the Sheriff, Toledo Fire, Toledo Police, and others, completed a consolidated Emergency Operations Plan for Toledo and the Lucas County urban area. This project was facilitated using homeland security grant funding. This rewrite was necessary to incorporate NIMS and ICS compliance language mandated by the federal grant acceptance. It made sense to consolidate a plan for the Urban Area considering the nature of response to any critical incident. This plan will address “all hazards.”

48 motorcycle vs. auto 52 team vs. auto 44 bicycle vs. auto 394 trolley vs. auto 388 miscellaneous vs. autoIt was very gratifying for this department to show a decrease in the number of fatal accidents to children. This, to a great extent, I believe can be attributed to the use of the play grounds throughout the city that have been established and it is becoming more evident each year.There are 278 licensed taxicabs being operated on the streets of Toledo.All of the interurban busses have their terminal on Jackson Avenue, and this street is entirely too narrow and congested to even try to take care of the large number of busses using the terminal.The Police Department now has 142 intersections controlled by traffi c signal lights. The benefi ts that are being derived from the traffi c lights is something which cannot be measured in terms of the cost in the prevention of accidents. . . While it is true that there is a great deal of comment both for and against the lights, I believe that it is the only possible way that this department could consider taking care of the traffi c at these intersections.The sign shop has become a very important branch of the Police Department. In 1928, they repaired and replaced the following semaphores and lamps:50 semaphores replaced48 semaphores repaired36 semaphore lamps repaired and replaced438 semaphore lamps oiled99 hoods placed on automatic traffi c signal lights

1928Our Speed cars have been equipped with machine guns and in order to safeguard this arm from damage or theft, it has been found necessary to place them in boxes under lock and key.It seems to me that this method defeats the very purpose of their existence. If called upon to avail themselves of a weapon thus secured, the offi cers would fi nd themselves at a decided disadvantage. They would be compelled to direct their attention from the cause of the emergency in order to secure the key to unlock the gun container or abandon the effort altogether and depend upon their small arms.It would have been a much better plan to have built on the rear of the front seat a compartment with an electric control lock that could be opened without a key only when the motor of the car was running.

“We are bringing to completion at Bay View Park an inside revolver range in conjunction with our great outside range. . . . Not only will this building complete the Department’s equipment in range facilities, but will also provide us with a splendid recreation center.”

The Toledo Police Range, dedicated on September 26, 1990, falls under the authority of the Training Section. Range personnel service 94 shotguns annually and are responsible for maintaining over 600 department-issued pistols. It is also the responsibility of range personnel to unload and make safe all fi rearms that offi cers come in contact with that they are unable to render safe. In 2011, the Toledo Police Range was made available to over 150 retirees who chose to qualify under The Law Enforcement Offi cers Safety Act, enacted in 2004. It was also used by 20 outside agencies in 2011. These agencies included the FBI, Secret Service, U.S. Marshall’s, Federal EPA, U.S. Fish & Wildlife, State Wildlife, State Watercraft, HUD, the State Prison, 180th Air National Guard Security Forces, and various other local agencies.The Toledo Police Bay View Park Pistol Range, dedicated in 1924, was the premier police pistol range in the country at the time. From the 1928 Annual Report:

In 1974, the Bay View Park Range was closed to make room for the Detwiler Golf Course parking lot. All that stands today is the original range house.

The Sobel TrophyThis trophy is a bronze statuette, 24 inches high, of a Toledo Police Offi cer in the act of drawing his pistol. It is mounted upon an eight-inch base. It was placed in competition in 1928 by Mr. Louis Sobel of Toledo, who was a First Lieutenant of Infantry in the 91stDivision during World War I. In 2007, it was removed from competition.24

The acquisition of this trophy was made possible thru the generosity of Mr. Harry Sobel, general manager of the Home Furniture Co.

In 2011, the Training Section continued in its mission of providing quality training programs to all members of the Toledo Police Department. While some of the training was general in nature, other training programs were more selective and designed to meet the continuing educational standards required for today’s law enforcement professionals. All in all, the Training Section provided 16,920 continuing professional education hours to 1,017 offi cers from within the department and from outside agencies.

Technical Crimes SectionData Driven Policing InitiativeIn June of 2011, the The Toledo Police Department began preparing for the Data Driven Policing Initiative to be implemented in 2012.Recent technological advances have increased police departments’ ability to collect and analyze data. The types of information obtained from these technologies enables crime analysts to make predictions about future crimes and potential problem locations.The Data-Driven Policing Model involves the process of collecting, analyzing, and providing timely and pertinent information relative to crime patterns and trend correlations, to assist operational and administrative personnel in planning and deployment of resources.The Data-Driven Policing Model involves a multifaceted approach that utilizes proven technology that has recently been adapted to meet law enforcement needs. The foundation of this approach requires the development of a Real Time Crime Center (RTCC).Currently, our department has numerous sources of information that are not being fully utilized. The RTCC integrates multiple disparate data sources so that all available data is being analyzed through the crime analysis process. The technologies involved in this approach range from electronic report writing to advanced software that performs predictive analysis by utilizing algorithms to discover signifi cant crime patterns. The basis of the program revolves around the collection of data, and the majority of data analyzed in law enforcement is found within its crime reports. It is critical that a department is

able to collect and analyze accurate and timely data. Therefore, it is imperative that police departments incorporate electronic report writing as well as a fully integrated Record Management System (RMS) that allows personnel to easily access, search, and analyze their data.Within this Data-Driven approach, the Toledo Police Department will utilize a combination of camera systems. An in-depth analysis will determine the optimum locations for these cameras. Another key component of the RTCC is the use of crime analysts to collect and analyze data, identify patterns and hotspots, prepare reports, and disseminate information to administrators, offi cers and the public. The fi nal steps in the Data-Driven Policing Model are response, evaluation and accountability. Once the data has been analyzed and the information is disseminated, the concerned commander is responsible for developing and implementing a response to the specifi c issue. The problem or issue continues to be analyzed by the crime analyst who evaluates and reports the results of the response back to the concerned commander. Commanders are held accountable for problems identifi ed in their area of responsibility and they are required to modify responses until an acceptable result is achieved. RTCC meetings are held with all commanders and the Chief of Police, or his or her designee, so that commanders can report on their response plans as well as review the results of previous plans. By having all commanders present for these meetings, there is a greater dispersion of information across the department and increased development of new ideas.

While the department is fairly well equipped to carry on the crusade against the law violator, there is abundant room for improvement. During the past year, a decided advantage has been gained by providing the department with up-to-date defensive weapons; the purchase of machine guns, gas bombs and hand grenades, and bullet proof vests is to be commended; also the purchase of closed cars for the scout crews, for their employment, has placed the Department in a more secure position than formerly.

Vice/Narcotics Section and the Metro Drug Task ForceIn 2011, the Toledo Metro Drug Task Force completed a Federal OCDEFT case titled “The Manhattan Project.” The case utilized 7 wiretaps, executed 19 search warrants, confi scated $60,000 and approximately 5 kilos of heroin, and resulted in the arrest of 33 individuals. Of these individuals, 22 were indicted at the federal level, with the remaining 22 being indicted at the state level. All 33 suspects plead guilty in their respective courts. This case had a huge impact on the fl ow of heroin into the city of Toledo.Following are the statistics from the combined Vice/Narcotics Section and the Metro Drug Task Force:

Page 37: 2011 report - Toledo Police Department

In honor and tribute to the offi cers of the Toledo Police Department who heroically and selfl essly gave their lives while protecting the

citizens of this community. The ultimate sacrifi ce made by these fallen offi cers shall not be forgotten.

A gang of “machine gun bandits” had just robbed an American Express Co. truck carrying hundreds of thousands of dollars.
