prosecute perpetrators of criminal offenses through quality investigations by
working with district personnel and using intelligence to identify emerging
crime trends.
The Criminal Investigations
Division identifies, arrests and prosecutes the perpetrators of criminal
offenses, recovers and returns stolen property to its rightful owner, and
investigates and prepares cases to ensure successful prosecution in court. It also prevents and detects illegal vice
activities known or suspected to be associated with organized crime and gathers

relationship of organized criminal groups to vice and drug violators. Staff assigned to this division also assist
District personnel with community problem solving through the timely

-
Clearance rate percentage (total cases) is the closure
rate of the total cases received. Clearance
rates for 2004 do not include any unfounded cases.
-
Clearance rate (assigned cases) is the number of
assignedcases successfully closed. 517 cases were investigated and found to be
unfounded and are not counted as actual cases due to incident-based report
(IBR) guidelines. This method of
accounting is in line with the FBI's polices and practices.
-
Part I offense closure represents all cases received by
the Criminal Investigation Section (CIS), not just ones assigned for active
investigative follow up, minus ones determined to be unfounded. FY 2006 is the first time CIS has reported
Part I offenses as a mission outcome.
-
Number of gun applicant background checks reflects the
teletypes received from other jurisdictions across the United States and the
Virginia Firearms Transaction Center pertaining to previous residents of
Arlington and previous arrestees and Class III applicants.
-
Cases per investigator are the total number of cases
assigned and cases designated with no follow up potential to 32
detectives. This does not count the
warrant officer or the computer forensic detectives. The Criminal Investigations Section currently has three vacancies
and two detectives on temporary assignments (task forces).
-
The total
number of cases received, assigned, percentage cleared, and cases per detective
are extrapolated from the monthly Criminal Investigations Section reports to
the Deputy Chief of Criminal Investigations.
-
The warrant section statistics are derived from the Criminal
Investigations Section monthly reports reflecting the number of
warrants/summons received and removed by arrest, withdrawal and return.
-
The total
value of stolen property recorded by the Pawn Officer, both Pawn and Burglary
Unit related. All pawn/gun statistics
are extrapolated from the logbooks of the Pawn Unit. The pawn articles for
Washington, DC are no longer available to Arlington County.
-
The source
for the polygraph results is the confidential polygraph monthly reports.

Identifications made through fingerprints include all
arrest fingerprint cards as well as applicant fingerprint cards which are
processed in the Forensic ID Unit.
-
Northern Virginia Regional Identification System (NOVARIS)
allows examiners to encode latent prints from crime scenes and live scan arrest
fingerprint cards for search by the system. Latent prints are currently
compared against a regional database that includes Northern Virginia as well as
Prince Georges and Montgomery Counties in Maryland.
