The Honorable James B. Olliver, Jr.
city Manager
City of Norfolk
Norfolk, Virginia 23510
Dear Mr. Oliver:
Presented herewith is the Norfolk Police Department's Annual Report
for 1991. The members of this department, both sworn and non
sworn, whose dedication to Norfolk is reflected in this document,
join me in this presentation.
In spite of the increase in homicides, major crime in Norfolk
decreased eight percent (8%) in 1991. The PACE {Police Assisted
Community Enforcement) Program contributed to this reduction. Our
efforts continue to be aimed at lowering the number of all violent
and non-violent crimes in our city.
Continued support from you, the City Council and the citizens of
Norfolk is crucial to our endeavors. In 1992, we look forward to
working even more closely with those we serve.
HPH:m
Respectfully submitted,
H.P. Henson
Chief of Police

CENTRAL RECORDS DIVISION
B. Rogerson, Captain

Officer-in-Charge
L. R. Barnard, Lieutenant
Executive Officer
The Central Records Division, a component of the Services Bureau,
serves as the repository for all criminal histories, fingerprints,
photographs, legal papers, reports and warrants generated by or
entrusted to the Norfolk Police Department.
To accomplish the work assigned to the Central Records Division,
it has been divided into work sections: Records, Identification,
Photo Lab, Central Warrant, Central Desk, Systems and the Police
Emergency Service Liaison Unit {PESLU).
The numerical data for the Central Records Division is reflected
in the statistical segment of the manual; other actions and events
follow.
PUBLIC/POLICE COUNTERS
The volume of transactions continued to increase over previous
years. The greatest portion of the increase can be directly
attributed to the False Alarm Users/Fees the collection of which
was inaugurated in April 1991.
There was a 49.9% increase in total revenues handled by the staff
this year as compared to the past year. Gunpurchase Permits were
up 24.6%. The False Alarm fees accounted for 26.0% of the total.
During 1991, in addition to the regular staff, volunteers helped
with the Public Counter. The immediate supervisor as well as the
over-all supervisors changed this year. Officer Wayne Boone is now
the immediate supervisor and Sergeant W. D. Woolard, Sr. is the
over-all supervisor.
PHOTO LAB
During the last year, productivity in the Photo Lab has increased
.63%. In addition to the 61 sittings in the Photo Studio, the Lab
averages 2. 3 photo assignments a week. Although the volume of work
has increased, a 24 hour turn around time for crime scene photos
that are requested is still managed.
Our Photo Lab has built a reputable standing in the law enforcement
community. It has assisted the FBI by taking aerial photographs
of toxic waste violations and developed and printed crime scene
photos for the Virginia State Police. On these occasions, it has
been able to process and print more expediently than their labs.
(3)
Even though the work volume has increased, additional duties have
been taken on. Joe Riplinger's teaching assignments have expanded.
Not only does he teach the arson investigators photo technics, but
has held classes for Communications and Marketing, Public Works and
Parks and Recreation personnel. Mary Heitman now has the task of
maintaining the TOFF records and both fill in when the ID Section
is shorthanded. Also, beginning in February, 1991, personnel
started photographing abused children.
Our studio photography of crime victims has been enhanced over past
years prompting numerous accolades. Hopefully, with the new
budget, the Photo Lab personnel will obtain professional training
from a local master photographer. This training will enable us to
produce pictures of a more professional nature.
The Photo Lab personnel maintain all of its own equipment and had
no down time for 1991 due to their comprehensive maintenance. The
Photo Lab generated $2,045 in work completed for other city
departments. The commercial price for this work would have totaled
$5,669. This equals a savings to the city of $3,624 for 1991.
The staff consists of one Photo Lab Technician II and one Photo
Lab Technician I. Their normal working hours are Monday through
Friday, 7 AM to 3 PM, however they are available as needed for
photo assignments outside the scope of normal working hours and are
accessible by pager.
IDENTIFICATION SECTION
Eight civilian Police Identification Clerks assigned to Central
Records Division have been tested by the Department of Criminal
Justice Services to operate the Automated Fingerprint
Identification System for tenprint AFIS identification. Operator
training, begun in November, 1991, will allow 24 hour AFIS
inquiries to be used in conjunction with prisoner booking by the
Norfolk Sheriff's Department. Facsimile transmission of
fingerprint cards will be utilized to send cards from Central
Booking to Central Records. Automated fingerprint live-scan
technology is being studied and analyzed for future use at the
local and state level.
SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT UNIT
During the calendar year 1991, the Systems Development Unit {SDU)
distinguished itself through the technological support of the
Norfolk Police Department, the Tidewater region and beyond. Micro
computer programs developed and refined during the year have been
made available to the Virginia Beach Police Department, the
Portsmouth Police Department, the Hampton Police Department, the
Fairfax Virginia Police Department, the Spartanburg County s. c.
Police Department and a number of Federal agencies. These
automated systems include Intelligence Tracking, Young Gang
Tracking and Search Warrant Tracking. In addition to providing
( 4)
fully developed systems, SDU supports the various agencies
mentioned above by telephone, modem and in person. The CRIMES
project (Comprehensive Regional Information Management and Exchange
System) has occupied the majority of the remaining time and talents
of SOU staff. This project will ultimately result in the
replacement of all criminal justice mainframe computer
applications.
In addition to micro computer development and CRIMES tasks, SDU
conducted tests and submitted reports on "Patrol Car Video Cameras"
and .the use of "Bar Coding".

D. w. Everton, Sergeant
Officer in Charge
CRIME ANALYSIS UNIT
Staffed by one sergeant, one officer, four non-sworn analysts and
one secretary, this Unit is divided into two branches: Patrol and
Investigative.
The Unit's mission is to support the operating elements of this
department by collecting, collating, analyzing and disseminating
information on crime, criminals and related activities.
During 1991, this Unit responded to three hundred thirty-eight
(338) requests for information and issued twenty-eight {28) alerts
identifying crime problems or patterns. These figures represent
a total increase of twenty-seven percent (27%) above 1990.
With the emphasis now being placed on service, 1992
1
s production
is expected to surpass the year being reported on.
The staff of the Crime Analysis Unit will endeavor to make this a
more highly respected Unit in the coming year.

CRIME PREVENTION DIVISION
B. G. crowder, Lieutenant
commanding Officer
J.M. Moore, Corporal
Executive Officer
During the 1991 calendar year, the Crime Prevention Division was
modified in both personnel allocation and assignments. At the end
of 1991, a total of sixteen {16) individuals staffed this command.
The personnel breakdown by rank is as follows:
One (1) Lieutenant
Two (2) Corporals
Twelve {12) Officers
One (1) Office Assistant II
Changes in the functions and responsibilities of this division due
to the P.A.C.E. initiative necessitated the addition of (1)
Corporal to supervise the formation and administration of the
P.A.C.E. Athletic League {P.A.L.) and the reassignment of duties
of selected personnel to further P.A.C.E. objectives in targeted
communities.
Crime Prevention Division strategies/projects in 1991 included:
Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) continued to be
presented in all thirty-seven (37) Norfolk Public Elementary
Schools city-wide. The D.A.R.E. Elementary School curriculum
was provided to a total of 2,878 students in 117 fifth grade
classes.
In addition to the elementary school program, 505 middle
school lessons were presented to 2,800 seventh grade students
in the Norfolk Public Middle Schools city-wide.
Full implementation of the D.A.R.E. High School curriculum in
the Norfolk Public High Schools was also accomplished during
this period. A total of 876 high school students received
sixty-two ( 62) lessons in life skills and substance abuse
training.
D.A.R.E. personnel also instructed classes during Operations
Bureau In-Service Training to promote a better understanding
of the D.A.R.E. Concept within the department.
(7)
The Norfolk Police Department Speakers Bureau received a total of
340 speaker requests in 1991. Division personnel were responsible
for public speaking engagements concerning diverse topics (i.e.
Block Security, P.A.C.E., Senior Safety, Personal Safety, Business
and Residential Security, "Officer Friendly", Crime Prevention
through Environmental Design, Drug Abuse and Drug Identification).
The Speakers Bureau has continued to serve as a means of educating
the public concerning means of bringing citizens and police closer
to fulfillment of Phase III "Community Partnerships" of the
P.A.C.E. strategy.
The Norfolk Police Department Explorer Post 191 doubled in
membership (from twelve to twenty-four) during calendar year 1991.
Members of the post continued to explore law enforcement careers
through twenty (20) hours of training and 346 hours of community
service. Post members participated in various fund raising
activities. In addition, selected members attended the Law
Enforcement Explorer Summer Conference and participated in
activities at Camp Rock Enon.
Personnel from the Crime Prevention Division, in conjunction with
trained personnel from other divisions, provided home security
surveys to 134 individual residences within the City of Norfolk.
Personnel from this division also provided home security training
to patrol personnel to enhance departmental delivery of services
and to further the objectives of the P.A.C.E. strategy.
Specially trained officers assigned to this division provided
commercial security surveys to twenty-three (23) businesses during
this same period.
As part of the P.A.C.E. initiative, the Crime Prevention Division
placed particular emphasis on increasing the number of active block
security programs within the City of Norfolk. During 1991, there
were nineteen (19) new block security programs implemented creating
a total of 104 active block security programs city-wide.
Members of this division were instrumental in providing pre- and
post- implementation training in reference to Police Assisted
Community Enforcement (P.A.C.E.) to police officers, other city
employees and the public.
The P.A.C.E. Athletic League (P.A.L.) was created as an adjunct to
the P.A. C. E. program. Administered from the Crime Prevention
Division, this league provides alternative activities and life
skills training for inner-city youth. The following data
demonstrates first year participation in P.A.L. activities:
Rookie Baseball .......................... 240
Flag Football . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 77

Volleyball ..........................•.... 144
"Learning" Classes ....................... 2 9 O
"Street Law" classes, attendance at Tidewater Tides Baseball games,
movies, tours of local businesses and city agencies also served to
promote life skills and alternatives training objectives.
An officer from this command was assigned to work as a liaison
between the Norfolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority (N.R.H.A.),
public housing residents and the police department to impact
environmental and social housing conditions that breed crime. An
innovative tactic, this means of working with a "hardened public"
is designed to effect the hard core problems in inner city
communities. A total of ten {10) N.R.H.A. communities, four (4)
N.R.H.A. senior mid-rise apartment complexes and one {l) N.R.H.A.
scattered site neighborhood are impacted by the effort as part of
the "Community Partnership" phase· of the P.A.C.E. effort.
During Phase II - "Increased Patrol" and Phase III - "Community
Partnerships" of the P.A.C.E. effort, members of the Crime
Prevention Division worked in concert with other divisions of the
police department and other city agencies in nine (9) targeted
communities to further the goals of the P.A.C.E. program. Division
personnel worked to identify community leadership and establish
effective communications, crime prevention, and community
empowerment strategies as part of an ongoing process of community
education and involvement.
The Crime Prevention Division participated in many special events
during 1991. The following listing is representative of this
involvement:
st. Patrick's Day Parade
Azalea Festival Parade
Holiday in the City Parade
Farm Fresh Food Extravaganza
Langley Speedway McGruff Night

1991 was a year of change and growth for the Crime Prevention
Division as its officers rose to the task of P.A.C.E.
implementation. New programs complemented those already in place
as personnel sought innovative ways to better serve the public.
The accomplishments of 1991 should serve as a strong basis for
future program developments and the ultimate fulfillment of the
police department mission.

sergeant and nine investigators handling stolen autos and one
sergeant and three investigators handling hit and runs and auto
fatalities.
In 1991, 2949 vehicles were reported stolen in Norfolk. 489 were

arrest.
BURGLARY SQUAD
On January 3, 1991, I'nvestigator J. E. Porter arrested two white
male juveniles for a residential burglary to 3028 Herbert Street.
A .357 magnum revolver which was stolen from the residence was
recovered during the arrest. Both suspects are members of a
juvenile youth gang known as "The Bad Boys." The purpose of the
burglary was to acquire weapons for the gang.
On August 22, 1991, Investigator R. L. Chupik arrested a black male
juvenile for a burglary to 4304 Hampton Blvd. This suspect
confessed to the offense and implicated ten other juveniles, all

On January 5, 1991, Investigator R. L. Jackson arrested a black
male suspect for a night-time burglary which occurred at 7424
(12)
Gardner street on December 22, 1990. During the burglary, a
vehicle was stolen which was later used in an abduction and rape
in the city of Virginia Beach. The suspect has been implicated and
charged in several burglaries, rapes, robberies and abductions in
both Norfolk and Virginia Beach. Upon conviction on all charges,
the suspect received 136 years to serve in the Virginia State

1,417 individuals were arrested for these offenses. The total
number of assigned cases for 1991 is an increase of 219 reports
(9%) over 1990. The approximate monetary loss for the year is
$1,196,403.
An analysis of the investigations conducted reveals that while the
crime of embezzlement accounted for only 4% of the investigations,
the monetary loss amounted to 45% of the total yearly loss. For
these reasons, a synopsis of several embezzlements are given first.
One of the embezzlements investigated was that of the Electrical
League of Norfolk. This is an organization whose officers serve
in a volunteer capacity. The past treasurer was a trusted member
and given a free reign of the checkbook. When the newly elected
treasurer took office, he noticed that the entries looked suspect.
An investigation revealed that the figures were indeed suspect.
The past treasurer was arrested and charged with embezzling $14,000
from the club.
On April 12, 1991, the Revco Drug Store located at 7526 Granby
Street reported that one of their employees was suspected of
embezzling over $19,000 from the company. Subsequent investigation
revealed that a white female, 20 years old, was responsible for
selling merchandise and not ringing it up on the cash register,
voiding transactions that had been rung up on the cash register and
outright taking money from the cash register and taking merchandise
out of the store. The amount of loss was $19, 318. The suspect
was arrested and charged with embezzlement.
On February 22, 1991, the owner of the Tidewater Trading Post
complained that following an audit they suspected an embezzlement
of $105,000. The general manager, a white female, 43, was arrested
and confessed to this offense.
On November 19, 1991, an attorney and treasurer of the Ecumenical
Family Shelter, located at 545 W. 35th Street, came to the Forgery
Squad and complained of a possible embezzlement. The resulting
investigation revealed that two employees were responsible for the
following scam:
One of the employees was employed in such a capacity that she
opened the incoming mail and any money that was in the envelopes
to be donated to the shelter, would make a deposit ticket and
either she or the treasurer would deposit the money in the Family
Shelter's account at Sovran Bank. On July 9, 1991, these two
suspect employees opened an account in the Ecumenical Family
Shelter's name and signed new account cards stating they were the
authorized signers for this new account at Life Savings Bank. One
of the employees that received the incoming checks and made out the
deposit slips would then deposit them into their account at Life
Savings bank and then they would withdraw cash from the account for
themselves. The Family Shelter noticed a decline in donations and
contacted some of these people to see why they had stopped making
(14)
donations and that is when they discovered that the donations had
still been coming in, but were somehow being sidetracked. The
Family Shelter's loss was $50,897. Two ex-employees were arrested
and charged with this offense.
On August 9, 1991, a representative of Old Dominion Peanut
Corporation located at 208 W. 24th Street reported that apparently
the bookkeeper was embezzling money from the company. Subsequent
investigation revealed that the bookkeeper would log in her ledger
that employees worked overtime when in fact they didn't, and would
put the amount of money in the ledger to represent the number of
hours they worked. However, when she made the check out, instead
of making it to the employee who supposedly worked overtime, she
made the checks payable to herself. The bookkeeper, a white
female, 34, was arrested and charged with embezzling $5,000.
The Shore Drive Service Center reported that they were apparently
the victim of embezzlement of approximately $6,000. Investigation
revealed that one of their employees would write up service orders
and collect the money for them when the repair was done. He would
keep the payment as well as the service orders so that no work was
ever reflected. Arrested and charged with this offense was a white
male, 29.
Gene Walter's Marketplace at 7 3 O W. 21st Street reported an
embezzlement in which they lost $9,709. The scheme was completed
by the assistant service manager, a white male, 27. He embezzled
the money by making up hundreds of fake return skips to fictitious
customers.
In October, a representative of Lawson Realty Corporation filed an
embezzlement complaint stating that they believed an employee was
embezzling from them. Warrants were secured for a white female,
38, who was employed as the accounts payable clerk. In her job
capacity, she had access to the computer which generated checks.
She would access the computer and enter checks as "Payable to" on
a client's account to various vendors. These checks were all
signed by a check-signing machine. She would then take the blank,
pre-signed checks and type in a different payee name, one to whom
she would make personal expense payments. Investigation revealed
that she embezzled money from Lawson realty from April through
October for a loss of $57,840.
Thalhimer's Department Store located at 880 N. Military Highway
reported an embezzlement by an employee who worked as a cashier.
The employee turned in eight refund slips as if a customer had
returned merchandise and refunded the money to herself. The total
monetary loss was $6,091. Arrested for this offense was a black
female, 21.
Arrested for embezzlement of $25,376 from Letton Gooch Printers,
Inc., 2509 Granby Street, was a white female, 33. This
embezzlement occurred between September 26, 1990, and January 21,
1991. She was employed as the bookkeeper for Letton Gooch Printers
(15)
and had access to the company's business checkbook. To obtain this
money, a total of 18 unauthorized and raised checks were deposited
into her Dominion Bank checking account.
Credit Card Forgery
on March 13, 1991, the Forgery Squad received a complaint in
reference to some credit card forgeries. The victim in this case
was receiving bills from a credit card company from which she had
never applied for a card. Subsequent investigation revealed that
the victim had been in a business using a pay copy machine on
Virginia Beach Blvd., where she had left a copy of her W-2 Form in
the copy machine. The suspect in the case used the copy machine
after the victim and took the copy of the W-2 Form. She
subsequently used the information and applied to retail merchants
for a credit report. After she obtained the credit report, she had
all the necessary information she needed to start opening charge
accounts. She applied for and received several charge cards and
the convenience checks that often accompany them. She wrote the
convenience checks and used the charge cards for over $7,300 in
merchandise and cash. She also applied for a home loan using the
victim's name and was in the process of obtaining a mortgage loan
for $93,912. While in the process of obtaining this mortgage loan,
she was told she needed to consolidate her bills to be able to
qualify for this loan. She subsequently received a check from the
builder and real estate agent for $7,600 to do this. Arrested for
this offense was a black female, 34 years old.
In June the Forgery Squad received a complaint from Communications
Center in Minnesota alleging that stolen credit cards had been used
to place orders for merchandise totaling $22,000 and they had just
received another order for an overnight air shipment on UPS. The
subsequent investigation enabled investigators to obtain warrants
for two individuals, a white male, 21; and an oriental male, 19.
The suspects were waiters for the Olive Garden Restaurant located
at 5920 E. VIrginia Beach Blvd. The credit card numbers were
obtained from customers who paid for their meals with a credit
card. The waiter would print an extra ticket for himself and use
the information from the ticket to place orders with Communications
Center in Minnesota. Both suspects in this offense were arrested.
Counterfeit Payroll Checks
In May of 1990, a group of people passed through the area writing
bogus payroll checks. A warrant was secured for a white female,
21, from the information on one of the checks for Obtaining Money
by False Pretense. The group was arrested in Texarcana, Texas in
December of 1990. Their fingerprints and photographs were sent to
us for comparison to those found on bogus checks passed in this
area. On 1/14/91, a reply was received from our Latent Print
Section. They positively identified one of the members of the
Texarcana group as a white female, 21, who used a different name
in this area on the bogus payroll checks. While they were in
Norfolk, this group passed approximately $10,000 worth of checks
(16)
in several days.
On March 6, 1991, Sovran Bank reported a black male who was using
a fake DMV identification card in the name of Michael E. Robinson,
DOB: 5/10/63; and a black female using a fake DMV identification.
They presented several counterfeit Montgomery Ward payroll checks
at various branches. Subsequent investigation revealed that these
two suspects and two other black females using DMV identification
cards went to several sovran Banks and Crestar Banks in Norfolk and
Virginia beach cashing counterfeit payroll checks from Montgomery
Ward and Miars Farm Associates. This group had been traced to Ohio
through Rental Merchants and were suspected of presenting
counterfeit checks from Ohio to Florida. A warrant was secured for
Michael E. Robinson for presenting these counterfeit payroll
checks.
On July 11, 1991, a subject using the name of David Lee Alexander,
B/M, 28, attempted to pass a counterfeit Orkin Exterminating
payroll check at a supermarket in Chesterfield County. During this
attempt to pass the check, the suspect became apprehensive and fled
the scene leaving the check and his DMV identification card. The
responding officer used the DMV card to identify a suspect that he
located two blocks away in a pay phone. Upon searching the
subject, he also found an Orkin employee ID card. The Chesterfield
County officer charged him with a felony Attempt to Obtain Money
by False Pretenses. Sovran Bank became aware of this and was aware
of our investigation into like crimes. They contacted our office,
which called the Chesterfield County office. During their
conversation, our investigator was satisfied that the subject the
officer had apprehended was also the man we were looking for,
Michael E. Robinson, who was wanted for passing counterfeit checks
all over the United States. Investigators responded to
Chesterfield County on 7/17/91, viewed the defendant in court and
were able to determine it was Michael E. Robinson, for whom we had
warrants. They interviewed the suspect, whose real name turned out
to be a different one than what we had. He admitted to these
investigators that he had passed about 600 checks since January and
that he did pass the ones in Norfolk that we had outstanding
warrants on. The suspect stated he is one of many who work for
someone who tells him what city to go to and when, and that when
he arrives at the city, usually by airplane, they will meet him and
give him a package which will contain a birth certificate and fake
employee identification cards from whatever companies the
counterfeit checks are written. He would then go to the local DMV
and get an identification card, not a driver's license. Of these
checks that he passed, he said he got to keep $100 and would turn
the rest over to them. Investigators have developed other suspect
names and cities they were in and are trying to involve the federal
authorities in this investigation; however, we have also been
talking to local law enforcement officers in numerous cities. In
this case, investigators were able to get the judge to hold the
suspect with no bond. Normally, the suspect would have bonded out
and that would have been the last we saw of him and we would never
have known his real name.

Telemarketing
On September 4, 1991, representatives from a telemarketing company
located in Portsmouth went to 1120 Rugby Street and supposedly sold
an elderly resident at that location new windows and vinyl siding
for her house. The victim responded to a bank in Portsmouth and
wanted to withdraw a large amount of cash. Bank officials became
suspicious when they saw two white people sitting in a car outside
waiting for her and talked her into transferring the money into a
checking account instead of taking cash. When we interviewed this
victim, she did not know what had happened and in fact told us that
she had gotten wise to them and didn't give them any money;
however, the next day, checks started coming through the bank in
reference to this. The victim is senile and could not remember
giving them any checks and none of the checks appeared to be a
forgery. A total of $13,253 was written to this company by her for
vinyl siding and window installation even though this company
didn't do that kind of work. The company representative's comments
were that they were going to subcontract this work. The victim,
however, did not need any work done to her house. Due to the
victim's senility and the fact that no forgery occurred, the
suspects could not be ch~rged with any criminal offense; however,
the victim's money, $13,253, was recovered.
FUGITIVE SQUAD
The Fugitive Squad is responsible for the coordination of arrests
of wanted persons from Norfolk in other jurisdictions, arresting

arrests were handled directly or indirectly by the squad.
During 1991, the Fugitive Squad processed 196 fugitive case reports
for extradition status. Additionally, they disposed of 358
fugitive warrants due to the inability of investigators to locate
complainants or witnesses.
The squad also set up and handled 43 fugitive prisoner return trips
back to Norfolk for prosecution.
GENERAL ASSIGNMENT SQUAD
On January 21, 1991, after an investigation of a grand larceny of
travelers checks and money orders from the First Virginia Bank of

Investigator Johnson discovered who the check belonged to and that
the suspects had murdered him, robbed him and taken his truck in
the state of Tennessee. Investigator Johnson obtained a confession
from both men and contacted the Sheriff's Department in Sevier
County, Tennessee. Investigator Johnson was able to coordinate the
search for the body by continuing to interrogate the suspects and
describing the surrounding area and landmarks where the body had

phone was a white male, 22. The complainant discovered his phone
missing from his home immediately after his carpets were cleaned
by First Class Carpet Care. Investigator K. T. Torian obtained a
copy of the phone bill and discovered that one of the phone calls
had been made to the residence of the suspect. Investigator Torian
contacted First Class Carpet Care and was informed that the suspect
was the employee that had been assigned the job at 6515 Pierce

IDENTIFICATION/LATENT PRINTS
During 1991, the Identification/Latent Print Squad was able to
effectively marry the latent information from crime scenes with the
Automated Fingerprint Identification System (A.F.I.S.). Although
the Identification Section processed 646 fewer crime scenes in 1991
than it did in 1990 they were able to recover 74 more latent prints
of value. This heightened productivity furnished the Latent Print
Section with the raw data to make 405 identifications. This
represents a 40.6% increase over the previous year. Of these 405
identifications, 142 were made utilizing the A.F.I.S.
The squad continues to make every effort to maximize the potential
of A.F.I.S. by the routine and continual updating of its data base
and the recent installation of a fingerprint quality facsimile
network between A.F.I.S. and th~ booking area.

FIRST PATROL DIVISION
G. B. Davis, Lieutenant
Executive Officer
The First Patrol Division is located in the southern half of the
City of Norfolk. It serves a population of 89,926 citizens, which
is approximately 40% of the City's total population, in an area of
18.9 square miles. It is commanded by a Captain and is presently
staffed by four Lieutenants, eleven Sergeants, fourteen Corporals,
one hundred sixty-two Officers and a Secretary. The Division is
separated into three sectors each commanded by a Lieutenant. They
are patrolled by thirteen district cars on a twenty-four hour
basis. During peak hours ten overlap units assist in answering
calls for service. In addition there are twelve officers assigned
to P.A.C.E. targeted neighborhoods. Its mission is to protect the
public within the First Patrol Division by reducing crime and
apprehending violators. To accomplish this goal, tactics and
programs are designed under the community policing concept
(P.A. C. E.) to assist residents of each neighborhood to become
involved in finding solutions to their problems.
During the year, four additional patrol units were established
covering seven P.A.C.E. targeted areas and three officers were
assigned to each unit. These officers were to work to gain the
confidence and trust of the citizens to get them involved in
fighting criminal activity in their neighborhoods. The seven
"targeted" areas are: Grandy Village, Diggs Town, Oakleaf Terrace,
Calvert Square, Tidewater Park, Huntersville and Park Place.
Additionally, almost all types of P.A.C.E. efforts have been
applied in Ingleside Square by Police and other City Agencies with
commitment by management to the point of hiring off-duty officers
for police patrol in lieu of an assigned target unit.
Officers working together with other City Agencies and citizens
were successful in getting vacant houses repaired, lots cleaned up
by their owners and several abandoned buildings torn down. They
had extra street lights installed in two neighborhoods. They
attended numerous meetings with citizens, apartment managers and
other city employees working on ways to improve the lifestyle of
the citizens, and participated in several "Drug Free" marches and
"Walk Against Violence" in targeted areas.
Officers continued community involvement in Park Place resulted in
the establishment of a Police "Mini Station" in a renovated and
rent free building donated by the 35th Street Merchants
Association. This station will be used by officers to write
reports, make phone calls and provide a stronger awareness of
police presence in the area. Bicycle patrols were also begun in
the areas of 35th Street, Park Place and Huntersville. Due to the
success and positive feedback from citizens, additional bicycles
were purchased for use in the other two sectors of the First Patrol
Division in the near future.
(30)
Officers of the First Patrol Division were also very active in
assisting with the P.A. C. E. Athletic League. They provided
security and also assisted in coaching and transporting the
children from their homes to the recreational centers. This
provided them opportunity to distribute material on drugs and to
interact with the participants. They also frequently visit schools
to give talks and to get to know the students and teachers.
First Patrol Division officers again provided security and
assistance to the major events that occur each year in the Downtown
area. Events such as Harborfest, Fourth of July Fireworks,
Christmas Parade, New Year's Eve Celebration draw thousands of
citizens to the area. This year officers also provided assistance
and security to "Spartanfest" 1991, held for the first time on the
campus of Norfolk State University. These events were all very
successful because of intense planning and cooperation between city
agencies. The opening of the Marriott Hotel in November and the
completion of the Convention Center in the near future will provide
additional events in the coming year requiring police assistance.
During the year, officers of the First Patrol Division received
seventy-five commendations for performance of duty.
In the coming year, we will continue our efforts to develop and
improve communication with the various Civic Leagues and citizens
of the First Patrol Division. Through these contacts, we will
attempt to get the residents' ideas and suggestions on combating
crime and ways to improve their lifestyle. This will allow them
to become more involved in developing solutions to their problems.
The morale of the officers of the First Patrol Divis i on is high and
they continue to perform with enthusiasm to provide the highest
level of service to the public.

SECOND PATROL DIVISION
c. L. Cameron, Captain
commanding Officer
R. L. Burwell, Lieutenant
Executive Officer
A. Cioccia, Lieutenant
Sector Commander
D. M. Hall, Lieutenant
Sector Commander
"Neighborhood policing is difficult, painstaking and
unglamorous work. It requires a long and serious commitment
from our state and local drug enforcement authorities and
makes great demands on individual officers. It also produces
some of the most imaginative and successful drug reduction
tactics we know".
The above listed statement by Dr. William Bennett, the first
director of President Bush's Office of Drug Control Policy, clearly
states the "community policing" strategy that has been adopted and
embraced by the Norfolk Police Department and the Second Patrol
Division and operates department-wide as the P.A.C.E. (Police
Assisted Community Enforcement) program.
The Second Patrol Division encompasses an area consisting of
31.1375 square miles or approximately the northern 2/3rds of the
city. The population of the Second Patrol Division has 171,303
persons residing in 61,884 households according to 1990 Census
Tract Information.
The Second Patrol Division has a dedicated manpower allocation of
120 police officers, 23 police supervisors and one civilian for a
total compliment of 144 personnel. The Second Patrol Division has
twelve patrol districts that are manned on a 24 hour basis. The
twelve permanent patrol car districts are supervised by four street
supervisory units. An additional eight support car districts are
manned during the hours of 7:00 PM to 3:00 AM in the Second Patrol
Division and are designated as the "Overlap" relief. The Overlap
relief has an additional two street supervisors assigned.
The Patrol Operations of the Second Patrol Division are directed
by two Police Lieutenants who are designated as Sector Commanders.
Each sector commander is responsible, on a 24 hour basis, for
approximately 1/2 of the land area that comprises the Second Patrol
Division.
The Second Patrol Division answered a total of 100,128 calls for
service or 50.3% of the total calls for service city-wide during
1991. During calendar year 1989, the Second Patrol Division
answered a total of 60,428 calls for service for a total of 41.48%
of total city-wide calls for service. This represents a
significant rise in Second Patrol Division answered calls for
service over a two year period.
(32)
The P.A.C.E. program, which involves three phases - (I) Sweep, (II)
Increased Patrols, (III) Community Partnership, was fully
implemented in the Second Patrol Division on January 25, 1991, with
the designation of the upper Bay Streets (20th Bay to 30th Bay
Streets) of East Ocean View, along with the Grandy Village Public
Housing area in the First Patrol Division as the first two P.A.C.E.
neighborhoods.
P.A.C.E. Phase I (Sweep) consisted of covert operations conducted
by the Vice and Narcotics Division, which resulted in the following
enforcement actions:
114 persons - 177 charges
54 were felony drug charges
16 were other felony charges
86 were prostitution related charges
21 were other misdemeanor charges
15 firearms were recovered
9 search warrants executed
The covert operation of Phase I was conducted for a three day
period January 25 - 27, 1991, which resulted in the following
enforcement actions:
35 arrests
151 misdemeanor/traffic summonses issued
186 total enforcement actions
Phase II - Increased Patrols, was begun on January 28, 1991 and
continued until March 19, 1991. During Phase II, P.A.C.E.
Community Service Days were conducted at the East Ocean View
Recreation Center on February 6 - 7, 1991 for the residents of East
Ocean View. A public support rally and a town meeting, conducted
by Mayor Joseph Leafe, were held on February 10, 1991.
Phase II also included a P.A.C.E. Communication Session that was
held March 17, 1991. The communication session was designed to
build understanding and cooperation between city agencies, the
police department and residents of the P.A.C.E. area. This
communication session was sponsored and conducted by the National
Conference of Christians and Jews. This session was the initial
"empowerment" training for the area residents of the P.A.C.E.
targeted area and provided the foundation for P.A.C.E. Phase III -
Community Partnerships.
Phase III - Community Partnerships, in East Ocean View, has been
successful with sector commanders and street supervisors, along
with patrol district car officers assigned to East Ocean View
playing an integral part. Officers fr· om the Crime Prevention
Division were also assigned to assist in the Community Partnership
formation. During 1991, personnel assigned to the Second Patrol
Division attended more than 100 Civic Leag~e meetings.
The P.A.C.E. Support Services Committee established two important
(33)
community service teams to assist in the Community Partnership
formation:
1. The Neighborhood Environmental Assessment Team (NEAT Team)
was established to address visible conditions in the P.A.C.E.
area, which detract from the quality of life and may
contribute as crime casual factors. The patrol division
Sector Lieutenant, in any P.A. C. E. area, is the Police
Department's representative on the NEAT Team.
2. Family Assessment Service Team (FAST Team) was established
to provide a neighborhood-focused team approach to family
assessment and city agency service coordination. The FAST
Team's goal is to enhance family and individual functioning
and self sufficiency through team assessment of service needs,
action planning and follow up. Again, the patrol division
Sector Lieutenant is the Police Department's representative
on the FAST Team.
Quarterly follow-up P.A.C.E. meetings held in the East Ocean View
P.A.C.E. targeted area, have seen increasing attendance, community
interest and a true bonding of a cooperative spirit between the
citizens, police and city agencies.
The Second Patrol Division, working in conjunction with community
and busness leaders in the Lafayette/Winona neighborhoods, were
able to identify the need for establishment of a police community
station in that community. On November 2, 1991, the
"Lafayette/Winona Police Community Station" was dedicated and
opened to the public and is located at 2310 Lafayette Boulevard.
on December 7, 1991, a dedication ceremony was conducted for the
relocated Ocean View Improvement Team/police community station
trailer, located at 15th Bay Street and East Ocean View Avenue.
During November, 1991, an evaluation of the present manpower and
police patrol car district deployment plan for the Second Patrol
Division was conducted. The study revealed the need for the
estblishment of a third sector in the division and the addition of
four districts to be assigned in the following areas:
Lafayette Boulevard - Planning districts 50,51
East Ocean View - Planning Districts 6,7
Sewells Point Road - Planning Districts 40,41,42,43
Ocean Air/Bayview - Planning Districts 12,13
The proposed re-organization plan for the Second Patrol Division
was presented to the Police Chief in early December, 1991. The
division is looking forward to the implementation of the re
organization plan in early 1992.
The later months of 1991 saw plans being developed and implemented
to allow the opening of new police community stations in both the
Ocean Air/Bayview and Oakmont/Oakmont North communities. Opening
(34)
of these two new police community stations is planned for the
spring of 1992.
The year 1991 was a most important year for the Second Patrol
Division that saw the transition from a reactive-type of police
deployment and response to a truly proactive, crime prevention,
community policing effort. This division has come a long way
during 1991 in achieving its community policing goals and
objectives. We look forward to 1992 with the realization that we
have far to go to achieve all of the benefits that police-community
partnerships have to offer. No matter the effort required, the
Second Patrol Division will be at the forefront of the Police
Department's effort setting the P.A.C.E.
(35)
PLANNING AND RESEARCH DIVISION
c. M. Todd, Jr., Captain
Commanding Officer
M-E. Bangs, Corporal
Executive Officer
The Planning and Research Division {PARO) is staffed by two sworn
personnel, two Management Analyst II's, four Management Analyst
I's, a Financial Analyst III and an Office Assistant III. During
1991, the Operations Analysis and Payroll functions of the police
department were reassigned to this division.
The prime objective of Planning and Research is to support the
Chief of Police with information necessary for decision making
through complete and accurate research and planning. Among the
Division's responsibilities are writing, reviewing and revising all
departmental directives; compiling and disbursing of the
department's payroll; coordinating and developing of the
department's budgets; coordinating of grant applications;
conducting operations analysis staff studies related to
departmental efficiency; overseeing department long and short range
planning inclusive of infrastructure requirements; departmental
forms design and maintenance; and daily maintenance of the
department's Personnel Information Management System. Division
personnel also prepare reports and graphic displays for Department
or City Administration presentations.
Among the major studies and projects undertaken by this division
were:
NORFOLK POLICE DEPARTMENT STRATEGIC PLAN FOR 1991 - 1998
The development and establishment of a Departmental Strategic
Plan was undertaken by the command staff consisting of the
Chief of Police, Deputy Chief of Police, Bureau Chiefs and
division/unit commanders and facilitated by a management
analyst. The Strategic Planning process involved nine steps
which when completed translated our mission into a broad
framework of objectives and actions. We look forward to the
plan bridging the gap b~tween what we do today and what we
need to do in the future.
The Strategic Planning process provides the department with
a methodology for long-range planning with goals of satisfying
the needs of the citizens of Norfolk and employees of the
Department. It also guides the department through often
complex issues and requirements.

"KEEPING PACE WITH NORFOLK"
A book was written on Norfolk's Police Assisted Community
Enforcment (PACE) program entitled "Keeping Pace with
Norfolk". The book details the PACE program and gives a brief
overview of pre-PACE efforts that led to the development o f
a program that has placed Norfolk in the vanguard of community
policing nationally. Because PACE is a City Wide effor t
involving the entire community, "Keeping Pace with Norfolk"
has been dedicated to the citizens of Norfolk.
CITY HALL SPACE COMMITTEE (INFRASTRUCTURE)
The city faces building space constraints which requi re
immediate planning for the present and future. A City Hall
Space Cammi ttee was established and included the Norfolk
Police Department as a member. Meetings and actions of the
committee concluded with a report to City officials. The
report addressed short term (approximately 10 years)
solutions, present City Hall accomodations, the cost of leased
space in outlying buildings and the anticipated further
program and space requirements. The committee recommended a
more comprehensive study be undertaken for long range planning
of options for site location (s) of city staff and citizen
services.
Soon after the City Hall Space Committee submitted the report,
a City Hall Annex Committee was established. This committee
was commissioned to purchase a building on Granby Street as
a short term solution. That building (the Rices-Nachmans
building) has been purchased and renovations are presently
underway.
The Norfolk Police Department anticipates moving the Police
Administration staff into the renovated building. The move
should take place in the next two or three years. This short
term solution will benefit the City and the Police Department
through a savings of over $15,000 in monthly lease costs.
Long-range, the Police Department is looking for a contiguous
police headquarters, administration and operation center.
COURT CITING CODE SYSTEM
Based on an employee suggestion, a new court citing code
system was developed. In the six months since initiating the
system, a cost reduction of $44,000 has resulted compared with
the same period last year.
( 37)
"TGIF - PEACE" (TURN GUNS IN FOR PEACE)
With Norfolk experiencing a record number of homicides in
1991, the City undertook a gun buy back program, entitled
"TGIF - Peace" (Turn Guns In For Peace) for one week in
December. A total of 1,094 guns were received with close to
$40,000 expended. Future gun buy back programs are
anticipated as a result.
POLICE OPERATIONS FAMILIARIZATION PROGRAM
The Police Operations Familiarization Program provided
Management Analysts employed by the Police Department an
opportunity to ride along with police officers assigned to the
various divisions of the department. The six Management
Analysts assigned to this division felt that the experience
led to a significantly improved understanding of the jobs
performed by field personnel and the conditions under which
they work. Communication between the two groups has shown a
marked improvement since the completion of the program and the
experience. In addition to the scheduled field experiences,
three of Planning's Analysts requested and were granted the
opportunity to observe an autopsy.
Other projects included the successful acceptance of applications
for an Intensified Drug Enforcement Assistance (IDEA) grant and an
Innovative Neighborhood Oriented Policing ( INOP) grant. The
Planning and Research Division has been an active participant in
the administration of the PACE program including: PACE budget
management, developing and compiling monthly reports and designing
computer enhanced graphics and charts. And 1991 saw the beginning
of computerization for payroll functions and the successful
coordination of two benefits open enrollment periods.
The preparation of departmental compliance with the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) was completed well ahead of schedule.
Planning personnel also completed a feasibility study on horse
patrols, an update of the jail emergency manual for the Sheriff's
Department, a Field Command study and schedule development, a study
with recommendations for gun legislation, coordination of
departmental United Way Campaign and Blood Drives and the
development and publication of a CRIMES newsletter.
As of January 1, 1992, there were 404 active directives. During
1991, the following directives were processed by this division:
Memorandum 392 Issued
345 Cancelled
General Orders 10 Issued

SPECIAL ENFORCEMENT DIVISION
c. J. Morganti, Captain
commanding Officer
A. B. consolvo, Lieutenant
Executive Officer
The Special Enforcement Division is composed of three units: the
Metro Tactical Unit, the Traffic Unit, which includes the Harbor
Patrol Squad, and the K-9/Emergency Response Team Unit.
During 1991, the Special Enforcement Division played a significant
role in the planning, implementing and continued success of
P.A.C.E. Our participation included the introduction of the
P.A.C.E. concept into nine (9) targeted communities. In addition,
this division conducted high intensity patrol operations in six (6)
additional targeted areas.
The Special Enforcement Division provides specially trained
equipped and deployed operational officers to enter into these
targeted communities where violent street crimes and open air drug
markets exist. Working as a team, the three (3) units are able to
introduce P.A.C.E. and its concepts through high intensity patrol,
highway safety checks, the utilization of drug dogs and the
distribution of literature to include P.A.C.E. presentations on
request by members of this division.
METRO TACTICAL UNIT
The Metro Tactical Unit consists of 24 officers and 6 supervisors.
The unit continued to fulfull its primary role of supplementing the
Patrol and Investigation Divisions with highly trained, highly
mobile and specially equipped personnel. Metro Tactical Unit
officers provided security in a number of capacities to include
Phase One and Two of P.A.C.E., Harborfest, Spartanfest, the Allied
Chemical bomb incident, the city water facilities during the Mid
East crisis, the Norshipco work strike and numerous special events.
During 1991, unit personnel have taken the following police action:
Felony arrests/charges
Misdemeanor arrests/summons/charges
Traffic summons issued
Stolen autos recovered
Value of narcotics recovered

TRAFFIC UNIT
The Traffic Unit's primary objective is the maintenance of safe and
orderly movement of vehicular traffic flow on the roadways and
waterways within the city. Unit organization and 1991 activities
are as follows:
Traffic Analysis squad
The Traffic Analysis Squad is staffed by one officer under the
direct supervision of the administrative sergeant for the Traffic
Unit. The responsibilities of the Traffic Analyst are diverse;
including such duties as: administrative staff work for the
Special Enforcement Division, micro computer operations,
development and programming, identification of high accident and
high incident locations, highway safety talks for the military and
civic organizations, training and production in DUI/video arrest
procedures and fatality video documentation, drug recognition
technician, criminal justice instructor and standardized field
sobriety instructor.
street Enforcement Squad
Supervised by a police sergeant and staffed by two police corporals
and 16 officers, assigned personnel have the responsibilities of
basic and fatal traffic accident investigations, traffic direction,
vehicular escorts and enforcement of motor vehicle codes.
Selective enforcement efforts continue to be directed towards
specific locations that have either a high accident or incident
rate of motor vehicle code violations.
This squad provided traffic direction for 16 major events during
1991 to include Harborfest, Spartanfest, nine (9) foot races and
five (5) parades.
The following police action was taken by Traffic Squad personnel:
Traffic summons issued
DUI arrests
Parking Enforcement Squad
18,149
150
Supervised by a police corporal and staffed with nine (9) non
sworn meter monitors, personnel have the primary responsibility of
enforcing parking regulations throughout the city. When needed,
squad personnel participate in the many events handled by the
Traffic Unit by providing traffic direction and assistance to
pedestrians. The squad issued 49,279 parking tags for violations
during 1991.
(41)
Motor carrier Safety Team
Supervised by a police sergeant, who also supervises the Parking
Enforcement Squad, and staffed by two police officers and one
civilian, squad personnel are responsible for motor carrier safety
inspections in the city. Assigned officers are certified in motor
carrier and hazardous material safety inspections and regulations
enforcement by both Federal and State enforcement agencies. Team
personnel continue to communicate with commercial trucking
companies offering assistance in voluntary compliance of the motor
carrier safety regulations and weight load restrictions.
School Crossing Guard Squad
Supervised by a police corporal and staffed by 88 non-sworn school
crossing guards, the primary responsibility of this squad is to
provide protection for school age children coming and going to
schools in areas with a high traffic volume.
Harbor Patrol/Underwater Recovery Squad
Supervised by a police sergeant and staffed by one police corporal
and six police officers, this squad's primary task is to provide
safety and other related services to citizens using the city's
waterways. During the peak season, April through October, three
marine patrol vessels operate daily to provide the necessary
services to an ever increasing boating public. During the off
season, November through March, one vessel remains operational,
staffed by the sergeant, corporal and one police officer to provide
the same needed services. The remaining officers are then
reassigned to one of the street reliefs. Personnel assigned to the
squad also function as the department's underwater search and
recovery team. The squad, with its 24-hour callout capability, has
proven to be a valuable asset to the city. Callouts for services
have increased year after year. The recovery of drowning victims
and recovery of evidence in crimes continue to be of the highest
priority.
Vehicle Compound Squad
Supervised by a police corporal and staffed with one officer, this
squad is responsible for the supervision of the city contracted
towing companies, the investigation for taxi cab
applications/complaints, and the investigation of complaints of
abandoned vehicles.
Both city towing contracts are held by Pete's Towing Service.

K-9/EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM UNIT R. w. Dillard, Lieutenant
Commanding Officer
The K-9/Emergency Response Team Unit's primary mission is to
provide support to the other operational elements of the Police
Department. The mission is accomplished by responding to calls for
service that present the possibility of physical danger to other
officers.
This unit takes a great deal of pride in the fact that not only is
the Emergency Response Team respected throughout this country, but
the K-9 Unit is one of the best trained units in the nation.
Unit personnel conducted several basic K-9 Handler Schools. It
trained eight of its own officers and officers from Franklin PD,
Portsmouth PD, James City County Sheriff's Department and
Northampton Sheriff's Department.
Basic Emergency Response Team Training was attended by officers
from Norfolk, Portsmouth, James City County and the United States
Marine Corps. The Norfolk officers who participated in this were
from both patrol divisions and from the Metro Tactical Unit.
The Emergency Response Team was used many times by Vice & Narcotics
Division on high risk narcotics raids. It was utilized once by
Homicide on a high risk arrest. It assisted Metro Tactical Unit
with several burglary and robbery stakeouts. It assisted the
Special Investigative Division with Dignitary Protection details.
The team also responded to five (5) call outs; all of which ended
without incident. The unit was placed on stand-by for three (3)
days as a Tactical Response Unit during "Spartanfest 91". The
weekend activities ended without any major incident.
Officers from this unit attended several schools relative to its
assigned duties, in order to stay abreast with the latest training
methods.

SPECIAL INVESTIGATIVE DIVISION
R. D. Whitt, Lieutenant
Commanding Officer
s. L. Chamberlain, sergeant
Executive Officer
The Special Investigative Division (S.I.D.) is a six-man unit
composed of a lieutenant, a sergeant and four (4) investigators.
Two major squads compose the S.I.D.: the Intelligence Unit and the
Special Operations Team. The Intelligence Unit has been
institutionalized to serve the Norfolk Police Department
administration by facilitating proactive decision-making. When
necessary, the Special Operations Team can be mobilized at the
discretion of the Chief of Police to respond to special
investigatorial matters that require an immediate need to react,
an extended investigative effort, an inordinate number of personnel
and/or special program funding.
INTELLIGENCE UNIT:
The purpose of the Norfolk Police Department Intelligence Unit is
to collect, collate, evaluate, analyze and disseminate criminal
data concerning contraband property trafficking, organized crime
and disruptive criminal enterprises. The latter intelligence
category encompasses criminal extremist activities, biker groups,
cults, satanic activity and youth groups. Four hundred fifty
eight (458) Intelligence Field Reports were submitted during 1991
representing an increase of eight percent (8%)
Members of the unit procedurally disseminate information from other
agencies and intelligence organizations that could possibly assist
in officer safety and/or investigative matters. One hundred eleven
( 111) formal documented disseminations were made by the
Intelligence Unit during 1991 to various commands of the Norfolk
Police Department. The South Hampton Roads Local Intelligence
Network (S.H.R.L.I.N.) facilitates local intelligence
communication. The group, composed of Norfolk, Portsmouth,
Suffolk, Chesapeake and Virginia Beach intelligence personnel,
consolidates criminal data on an area-wide basis.
Increased emphasis was put on analyzing incoming intelligence data
from field reports, recovered firearms and other sources to
identify criminal activities and enterprises. Using a computer and
other techniques, ten (10) activities were identified. Illegal
Weapons, Burglary, Possession of Stolen Property, Money Laundering
and Narcotics enterprises were identified and forwarded to the
appropriate investigative division for follow-up investigation.
Analysis of recovered weapons revealed information on probable gun-
(46)
running operations that was forwarded to BATF for follow-up
investigation. In one case, a local three-times-convicted drug
felon obtained a federal firearms license by utilizing a family
member to secure the license. Consequently, he was able to
purchase the firearms wholesale and then sell them on the street
in the Berkley section of Norfolk. The Special Investigative
Division and BATF jointly investigated and arrested the suspect and
seized fifteen (15) firearms. Other investigations led to the
arrests of two (2) individuals for Possession of Machine Guns.
During the war with Iraq, the Intelligence Unit prepared a detailed
threat assessment on city facilities and services that were
vulnerable to potential terrorist action. The Special
Investigative Division also worked with various federal agencies
on counter-terrorist matters.
Other previously submitted threat assessments were updated, and an
assessment on Vietnamese Organized Crime was submitted to command
for consideration during 1991.
SPECIAL OPERATIONS TEAM:
s. I. D. worked jointly with the Naval Investigative Service on
infiltrating a stolen property trafficking organization. Two (2)
individuals were indicted and information on interstate stolen
property trafficking was obtained and forwarded to the F.B.I. for
follow-up investigation.
Protective services were provided several times during 1991. The
dignitaries that were present during commissioning of the U.S.S.
ARLEIGH BURKE, the ambassador of Liberia, Nathaniel Howell, former
U. S. Ambassador to Kuwait and others were afforded protective
services by the Special Investigative Division.

VICE AND NARCOTICS DIVISION
R. E. Wash, Captain
commanding Officer
G. L. Banks, Lieutenant
Executive Officer
The Vice and Narcotics Division is staffed by one Captain, one
Lieutenant, three Sergeants, six Corporals, forty-four
investigators and two civilians for a total of 57 persons. The
Division's specific responsibility and mission is the suppression
of illegal vice, narcotic and organized crime activity in the City
of Norfolk through prevention, investigation, arrest and
prosecution of offenders.
The implementation of P.A.C.E. in January 1991 brought about an
increase in frequency of enforcement efforts of the Vice and
Narcotics Division. Various enforcement tactics were employed
during 1991 in the targeted P.A.C.E. areas which included
undercover operations, Reversals, Buy Busts, Take Downs, Search
Warrants, "John Details" and "Prostitution Details".
The Major Case Squad, after a five year investigation, successfully
destroyed the "George Harris" gang. This was an extremely violent
drug gang that operated in the Lindenwood section of the city . The
mystery paid assassin was identified, arrested and convicted for
his role in this group. To date, 21 members of the George Harris
gang have been arrested and successfully prosecuted in the Federal
system. Because of the Harris Case, an additional 9 individuals
were also arrested and successfully prosecuted.
The Hotel/Motel Interdiction Unit of the Vice and Narcotics
Division for 1991 arrested 71 individuals on 95 charges. This unit
seized 4,073.22 grams of assorted illegal narcotics with a value
of $375,852.00. Also, this unit, for the first time, prepared and
successfully prosecuted one case in Federal Court.
The Division conducted several full scale and mini-reversals, a
tactic designed to attack the demand element of illicit narcotics,
in various communities in the city. The Street Response Units,
with the assistance of detailed officers from other divisions, were
charged with conducting these reversals. This enforcement strategy
resulted in the arrest of 354 individuals on 392 charges. Further,
these units supervised and conducted 4 covert operations in
designated targeted P.A.C.E. areas. These operations were dubbed
"Avalanche", "Candyland", "Charlie Brown" and "Cherry Bomb". In
1991, these units arrested one-thousand six hundred and two (1,602)
individuals on two-thousand three hundred and seventy (2,370)
charges of which nine hundred and fifty-two (952) were felony
offenses. The Vice and Narcotics Division executed a total of 160
(51)
... - -- ··~-- - --- -------------------,
search warrants in 1991. Also for the year, 2,090 individuals were
arrested on 3,177 charges. There was a total of one thousand four
hundred and twenty eight (1,428) felony drug arrests for 1991,
which is a 14% increase over like arrests in 1990. The number of
felony drug arrests handled by the Division has increased by 30%
over the past two years. Divisionally, the total amount of drugs
seized were valued at $637,236.00; total monies seized were
$412,196.00 u.s.c. and 137 weapons were seized with drugs.
Yearly totals for the Vice and Narcotics Division for 1991 are
listed in the statistics section of the annual.

D. E. Verna, Lieutenant
Commanding Officer
YOUTH DIVISION
w. I. Moore, Sergeant
Executive Officer
The Youth Division/Sexual Assault unit is under the command of the
Criminal Investigation Bureau. The Youth Division is staffed by
twenty-one sworn personnel and one stenographic reporter. The
Youth Division in 1991 received two additional investigators and
a new vehicle which were assigned to the Gang Unit. This increased
the Gang Unit to four investigators and one corporal. Under the
PACE Program, the Gang Unit continued to focus on gangs and
associated levels of crime, violence, and intervention of illegal
activities being committed by gangs. The Gang Unit during the year
gave numerous gang presentations throughout the community as well
as appearing before the State Crime Commission in Richmond to
address the problems and scope of gangs in the City.
The Youth Division has the investigative responsibility in crimes
committed by juveniles or against victims under the age of
eighteen. The exceptions to this are homicides, automobile theft,
and burglaries. The Sexual Assault Unit, regardless of the age of
the victim or suspect, investigates all reported offenses of rape,
sodomy, sexual battery, indecent exposures, incest and burglaries,
abduction, and robberies if the intent or motive is related to a
sex offense. All vandalisms and telephone related offenses are
also investigated by the Youth Division. During 1991, the Youth
Division investigated 205 reports of forcible rape. The total
number of forcible rapes reported in 1991 was down by six percent
from 1990. In 1991, 154 of these offenses were cleared by arrest
or exceptional means. The Youth Division had a clearance of 75%
on all forcible rapes reported in 1991.
The Youth Division has two investigators assigned as primary
members of the Family Sexual Trauma Team. The Youth Division and
the Department of Social Services work in a team concept approach
in investigating all child sexual abuse and child neglect cases
that are custodial in nature. The Youth Division has concurrent
jurisdiction on Naval Base Housing relating to Child Protective
Services in the investigations of child abuse and child neglect.
These cases are coordinated with the Department of Social Services,
Department of Naval Investigative Services and the Naval Base
Police Department.
In 1991, the Youth Division had a case management clearance rate
of 62 per cent on all active reports assigned during the year. The
number of juveniles processed through the Youth Division was 4,247
with 1,180 of these youths being referred to Juvenile Court. There
were 1,771 runaway reports investigated in 1991.
(53)
Some of the notable cases investigated by the Youth Division in
1991 were:
On March 18, 1991, a twenty-two year old female was at a bank cash
machine in the 2000 blk of Granby Street. A male subject armed
with a handgun approached her demanding her money. The suspect
forced the victim into her car and made her drive to a secluded
area a short distance away where he sexually assaulted the victim
and then locked her in the trunk of her car. The victim · was
discovered several hours later by neighbors who heard the victim's
calls for help. Through the work of investigators who identified
the suspect by a tattoo and other forensic evidence, the suspect
was arrested for abduction, rape, robbery and use of a firearm in
the commissiqn of a felony.
On May 24, 1991, at approximately 3:30 AM, a male suspect
burglarized a residence in the 2000 block of Llewellyn Avenue. The
suspect bound the victim and sexually assaulted her. Neighbors
heard noises coming from that residence and called the police who
responded and arrested the suspect inside the victim's residence.
The suspect was charged with burglary, abduction, and rape.
On April 5, 1991, a female was abducted in the 1000 block of West
Ocean View Avenue by a male suspect. The suspect forced the victim
into his van and drove to a secluded area in the City of Virginia
Beach where he committed a brutal sexual assault and then threw the
victim out of the van leaving her in critical condition.
Investigators pursued this case and after exhausting many leads
were able to arrest the suspect who was charged with abduction and
rape.
POLYGRAPH UNIT: During 1991, the Polygraph Unit conducted 56
criminal polygraph examinations. Of these examinations conducted,
22 were NDI, 27 DI, and seven were inconclusive.
The below listed offense classification totals were handled in the
Youth Division in 1990.

Humane Officer Kathleen Gavin resigned in October. This leaves two
( 2) positions in the Di vision vacant. The drop in statistics
reflects the staff reduction. We are recommending that people
transport their animals to the SPCA when possible. Complaints about
pigeon concentrations are increasing as are requests for trap
rentals.
The egret situation on Powhatan Avenue continued to be a problem,
with some neighbors complaining about the birds and some supporting
their right to nest. It was decided the use of the noisemaker
pistols should be prohibited and recommended that Animal Protection
should no longer be handling the situation as our abilities are
( 5 6)
limited and the home owners have a responsibility to clear the tree
branches which would help the situation.
The SPCA is requesting a change of contract to increase the board
fee. Changes in the City Code have been requested to reflect
changes in the State Code and the SPCA contract.
Animal Protection lost its first case involving a pot-bellied pig
because the Judge ruled the word "swine" was plural as used in the
City Code and therefore the owner could have one pig. The Division
was involved in its first animal collector case with a woman who
had 18 dogs and 7 cats in her home. She was found an unfit owner
and the animals removed.
1991 ANIMAL PROTECTION DIVISION HIGHLIGHTS
March 26, 1991 - Superintendent George Whiting attended instructor
Recertification Program. Received Virginia DCJS Certification.
October 1 - 4, 1991 - Humane Officers R. J. Finley and C. W. Grubbs
attended the Annual Virginia Animal Control Officer Association
