About
DURING 2019, THE DCC ACCOMPLISHED THIS MISSION THROUGH A VARIETY OF UNIQUE INITIATIVES. THESE INITIATIVES CAN BE SUMMARIZED AS FOLLOWS:THE DCC CURRENTLY HAS TEN (10) DISTINCT MISSIONS/INITIATIVES, WHICH ARE ALL DESIGNED TO FILL GAPS IN OUR PUBLIC SAFETY NET. MOST ARE THE RESULT OF PUBLIC SAFETY REQUESTS, SPECIFICALLY, REQUESTS THAT PUBLIC SAFETY AGENCIES (POLICE AND FIRE) CANNOT DO FOR THEMSELVES DUE TO LACK OF FUNDING, EXPERTISE, OR INFLEXIBLE BUREAUCRACIES. HOWEVER, NOT ALL TEN DCC MISSIONS/INITIATIVES ARE ON AT THE SAME TIME. THE DCC MISSIONS/INITIATIVES OPERATING CONSISTENTLY ARE: THREATIQ, DONE IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT PARTNERS; THREAT ASSESSMENTS ARE COMPLETED FOR WORLD-CLASS EVENTS, WHICH IF ATTACKED BY EXTREMISTS WOULD RESULT IN MASS CASUALTIES. ONE 2019 EXAMPLE INCLUDES DETROIT'S PRIDE PARADE IN JUNE. DCC INTELLIGENCE ANALYSTS HARVESTED PUBLIC FACING DATA THAT INDICATED THAT ARMED WHITE NATIONLISTS WERE GOING TO CRASH THE PARADE. THEIR GOAL WAS TO ENTICE/PROVOKE PARADE GOERS RESULTING IN FATAL FORCE. PRIOR TO THE PARADE, THE DCC NOTIFIED THE DETROIT POLICE DEPARTMENT THAT RESPONDED BY ENCIRCLING THE EXTREMISTS WITH OFFICERS TO PREVENT PARADE GOERS FROM ENTICING THEM. STARTED IN 2012 AS ENOUGH SAID (ENOUGH SEXUAL ASSAULT IN DETROIT) THE NAME WAS CHANGED TO THE DETROIT RAPE KIT TASK FORCE AFTER THE MAJORITY OF RAPE KITS HAD BEEN TESTED. TO THIS DAY IT CONTINUES TO BE A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE WAYNE COUNTY PROSECUTORS OFFICE (WCPO) AND THE DETROIT POLICE DEPARTMENT (DPD) TO IDENTIFY AND ARREST RAPISTS WITH THE DCC ACTING AS FISCAL AGENT. AS OF AUGUST 2019, THE TASK FORCE HAD COMPLETED 3,152 INVESTIGATIONS, WITH 377 AWAITING INVESTIGATION, AND 197 CONVICTIONS; MOST OF WHICH WERE SERIAL RAPISTS. THE DCC IS PROUD TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS EFFORT THAT BRINGS PEDOPHILES, RAPISTS, AND SERIAL RAPISTS TO JUSTICE. GANG IQ: IS ANOTHER ONE THE DCC'S MISSIONS/INITIATIVES THAT IS ALWAYS ON. IT IS ONE OF THE THE DCC'S SIGNATURE AND UNIQUE COMMITMENTS TO PUBLIC SAFETY BY USING INNOVATIVE SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS AND GRADUATE LEVEL ANALYTICAL SKILLS TO ASSIST LAW ENFORCEMENT TO IDENTIFY GANGS, THEIR STRUCTURE, AND ACTS OF CRIMINALITY. COSTS FOR THE SOFTWARE USED TO SUPPORT GANG IQ IS SECOND ONLY TO SALARIES. ITS CONTRIBUTION TO PUBLIC SAFETY, PUBLIC AND PRIVATE, CANNOT BE OVERSTATED WHILE INCREASING EFFECTIVENESS OF THE DETROIT POLICE DEPARTMENT THROUGH THE USE OF TECHNOLOGY IN THE FACE OF SHRINKING BUDGETS. ALTHOUGH THE DESCRIPTION IS SMALL, GANG IQ REPRESENTS THE MAJORITY OF DCC'S ACTIVITIES. NEW BEGINNINGS INITIATIVE: NEW BEGINNINGS INITIATIVE FOCUSES ON THWARTING GANG RELATED VIOLENCE AND DISSOLVING THE GANG ORGANIZATION BY GIVING ITS LEADERS AND INFLUENCERS A NEW BEGINNING. THE PROCESS COMBINES RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS WITH COMMUNITY SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS TO DELIVER SERVICES DESIGNED TO CREATE AN ALTERNATE FUTURE FOR GANG LEADERS AND TURNING SUCH MEMBERS INTO CONTRIBUTING MEMBERS OF SOCIETY. TO DATE, THE DCC AND ITS PARTNER ORGANIZATION, KEEPING THEM ALIVE, HAVE SHOWN NEARLY 50 GANG MEMBERS/INFLUENCERS A NEW BEGINNING. AS A RESULT, AND ACCORDING TO CAPT. SONIA RUSSELL OF DPD'S 9TH PRECINCT, THERE HAS BEEN A REDUCTION IN GANG RELATED VIOLENCE ON DETROIT'S EASTSIDE WHICH ENCOMPASSES THE 9TH PRECINCT. ANOTHER ON-GOING INITIATIVE, THE DCC'S ANTI-HUMAN TRAFFICKING INITIATIVE: IN AN EFFORT TO COMBAT HUMAN TRAFFICKING IN SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN THE DCC PARTNERS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT AND PRIVATE ENTITIES TO INVESTIGATE POTENTIAL HUMAN TRAFFICKING RINGS AND ASSIST LAW ENFORCEMENT IN DISRUPTING THESE RINGS. TO DATE, THE DCC HAS REFERRED MORE THAN THREE DOZEN SUSPECTED HUMAN TRAFFICKING RINGS TO THE APPROPRIATE LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY FOR FOLLOW-UP INVESTIGATION.
