The Broward County Crime Commission is one of the foremost and pioneering Crime Commissions constituted in the United States. Established and Founded by Frank R. Pinter in 1976, the Crime Commission was initially constructed as a civilian monitor for the Criminal Justice System. It evolved out of a concern and petition from the citizens of Broward County, to ensure that Law Enforcement was properly funded and allotted the maximum resources to fight crime in Broward County. Today, the Broward County Crime Commission’s primary purpose is to study, report and make recommendations in all areas of public safety and public protection. With an expressed interest in continually improving the Criminal Justice System, one of the main edicts of the Crime Commission is to preserve the integrity of the governmental process, so that law enforcement is well equipped to better protect the citizens of Broward County.
|
As
such, the Broward County Crime Commission seeks innovative solutions and works
in cooperation with federal, state, county and local law enforcement
agencies. Valuing these relationships, the
Crime Commission serves as both a liaison of public sentiment and a resource of
information to Broward County’s 38 criminal justice agencies regarding a myriad
of public safety issues, including but not limited to: training,
public security, business intelligence policing, human resources, police science
& technology, inter-agency cooperation, and law enforcement finance & economics.
Additionally,
the Crime Commission promotes citizen communication and involvement via a variety
of community-based initiatives.
