LAS VEGASLas Vegas METROPOLITAN Metropolitan POLICE Police DepartmentDEPARTMENT || 11 2 || 20142012 ANNUAL ANNUAL REPORT REPORT - Douglas- Dedicated C. Gillespie: to our Overcoming Community Adversity Message from the Sheriff

The Metropolitan Police Department met its share of challenges in 2014.

With the opportunity to lead this organization as its 7th Sheriff, I am proud that we have withstood and overcome so much.

Last year, LVMPD weathered budget cutbacks. The ratio of officers to citizens dropped to record lows. And, a heated battle between rancher Cliven Bundy and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management placed us in the middle of an intense standoff that endangered officers’ lives.

The largest tragedy last year and arguably in the history of this agency was the brutal slaying of officers Alyn Beck and Igor Soldo. The tragedy of that moment reminded the community of the real dangers officers face and reminded us that most of our community supports us.

We also underwent several key changes organizationally. The body-worn camera pilot program was launched and the new radio system came online last year, making us more technologically advanced than ever before. All of these changes come at a time when more criminals are willing to confront police and where there’s a national conversation about police use of force.

Looking ahead, my number one priority is to secure the level of funding needed to put more officers on the streets and ensure Patrol has the backup it needs.

The largest change on the horizon is our move toward decentralization, which will allow officers to be area- focused and share information in real time. For example, officers working a robbery in the Problem Solving Unit can share information on a case with Robbery detectives. Cases will be rerouted to the Area Command where the crime occurred and an investigative sergeant will manage the case load.

I am aware of all of the challenges that lie ahead, but progress is not possible without change. The LVMPD stands apart from others. We have been used as a model for policing across the country and we will continue by being efficient with the resources we have and innovative in the way we do things. I will continue to work with all of you to keep this great city safe.

Thank you,

Sheriff Joseph Lombardo

Almost immediately, he encountered, and steered the department through some of the most troubling adversity the LVMPD has faced. When asked to recall some of the more significant incidents of his eight-year tenure, Gillespie quickly rattles off several, “Losing seven officers; explosive (population) growth, the MORE COPS initiative, and hiring 400 officers per year; then the budget and economic recession and hiring no one; use of force issues, working with the Department of Justice and Community Oriented Policing Services office; and building the new Headquarters and North Valley Complex.”

Throughout those difficult economic times, Gillespie remained true to his vow that he would not lay-off any department members and, as a result, many department members owe A young man in Rochester, New York, pursuing a Bachelor’s a debt of gratitude to Sheriff Gillespie.

It didn’t take long for Gillespie to embrace Las Vegas and decide to make the city his home.

As a police officer, Gillespie served at the West and South Substations. Promoting to sergeant in 1988, he was assigned to the Southeast Area Command, K-9 Unit, Field Training Office, the Office of the Deputy Chief, and handled various special projects and events. Gillespie indicates that serving as K-9 sergeant stands out among his favorite assignments. Of that position, Gillespie said, “I enjoyed training the dogs, (that) all the calls were hot calls. It was a small, tight group of seven officers. It’s definitely a ‘working sergeant’ position.”

Gillespie was promoted to lieutenant in 1995 and served at the Southwest Area Command, the Academy, Training Bureau and SWAT. Promoting to captain in 1998, Gillespie was the A family man, Gillespie has been married for 32 years.

absorbed Fingerprint Bureau earlier this year. I requested and received a lot of feedback regarding the organization of this bureau, from all sections of the bureau. The resulting reorganization, which will go into effect in July, will be largely based on that feedback. I see an opportunity, as area commands focus on incident crime reporting, for Records to refocus on Records and Fingerprint related duties. These duties include: sealing of records; document management and scanning as we continue to evolve into a paperless work flow; records validation; SCOPE records entry and updating; Uniform Crime Reporting; processing work card applications; Carry Concealed Firearms applications; convicted persons registration; and covering critical 24-hour posts, such as Wanted Vehicle System and teletypes. The opportunities for effective cross-training have never been more significant.”

Susana McCurdy’s father was a career military man, serving When asked about her leadership philosophy, Susana recalls 30 years in the Air Force. Born at Travis Air Force her mentors and what she learned from them. “My two biggest Base in northern California, Susana moved to Las Vegas in influences, mentors, are (former Administrative and Sciences 1989 when her father was stationed at Nellis Air Force Base.

One great challenge on the horizon for LVMPD, and one that will also affect the Records Bureau, is decentralization. Susana embraces the challenge. She says, “Decentralization will affect the Records Bureau in a positive way. When some of the front desks at area commands were closed in 2013, Records picked up an increase of 38% in front desk traffic, but no increase in personnel due to the fact that budget restraints prevented the department from replacing departing employees. That has led to some back-logs in our workload. The area commands re-opening front desks will allow Records to focus on attacking those back-logs.”

She continues, “My ultimate vision is a bureau reorganization which will increase operational efficiency. Records Bureau
