Crime and Intelligence Analysts play a crucial role at police agencies by gathering and analyzing data to identify crime patterns and trends. Their collaboration with police officers and other agencies ensures effective responses to criminal activities, making them an essential part of police operations. Though often working behind the scenes, their impact is profound.
Since joining our department in March, our Crime Analyst, Megan McMillen, has worked diligently to transform the way crime analysis is used within our department, benefiting both the officers and the community.
