Criminal Investigation Division
The Criminal Investigation Division is under the command of Captain Melvin Mason.
C.I.D. is a specialized unit within the Dickinson Police Department that deals with all aspects of crimes and criminal intelligence. C.I.D. receives reports from the Patrol Division on a daily basis and all reports are reviewed for solvability factors.
Every report is reviewed, logged, and disseminated to the proper detective for follow up. All assignments are reviewed, then given out for follow up by the C.I.D. supervisor or his designee. C.I.D. is divided into several different sections all of which require unique and specialized training.
Because of the vast experience of the current C.I.D personnel, citizens of Dickinson have a dynamic investigative group second to none.
In addition to criminal investigations, the C.I.D. Commander is also responsible for the management of the Information Technology operations in the Police Department as it relates to the 800mHz radio system equipment and the law enforcement CAD/RMS software.
