  • Fitzgerald Announces March Retirement of Superintendent Mcdonough Assistant Superintendent Kearns Promoted to Lead Agency
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 4, 2021 Fitzgerald Announces March Retirement of Superintendent McDonough Assistant Superintendent Kearns Promoted to Lead Agency PITTSBURGH – County Executive Rich Fitzgerald today announced that County Police Superintendent Coleman McDonough has decided to retire at the end of March having served as the head of the agency since June 2016. McDonough made the announcement to the department earlier today. “We have been fortunate to have Superintendent McDonough’s leadership in the County Police for the past five years, after his time at both state and local agencies. His steady leadership and example allowed him to work with and navigate the many law enforcement organizations here in our community through particularly difficult times for police locally and nationally,” said Fitzgerald. “We are sorry that he will be leaving the county but wish Coleman well as he spends much-deserved time off with his family and friends.” Superintendent McDonough joined the Allegheny County Police Department (ACPD) as its superintendent in 2016. The former Chief of Police in Mt. Lebanon, he began his career in law enforcement in 1984 with the Pennsylvania State Police as a trooper. He rose to the position of Deputy Commissioner. A United States Army Veteran, McDonough has also been affiliated with a number of professional organizations including the county, state and international Chiefs of Police associations and the FBI National Academy Associates. “When Coleman took over as superintendent, he took the helm of an agency that had not had a lot of turnover or change prior to his hiring. His existing relationships, easy-going nature and community approach to law enforcement enabled him to effect a culture change at the department much more quickly than anyone else may have been able to do,” said County Manager William D.

    Chief Superintendent Tim Kingsman Tim Kingsman joined West Yorkshire Police in September 1990, initially being posted to Keighley Sub-Division. In 1997 he was promoted Sergeant before moving down the Aire Valley to Eccleshill Sub-Division in North Bradford. In 1998 he moved to the Operational Support Unit where he specialised in search, and was the POLSA for Operation Conifer, the largest search operation in the force for some years. He also was one of the first units in the Bradford Riots of the summer of 2001, a day that he will not forget. Promotion in house to Inspector followed in the Autumn of 2001, before in 2002 moving to Pudsey Weetwood Division in Leeds. After spells as response and Neighbourhood Inspector, he was temporarily promoted for a year as Chief Inspector Support. The Chief Inspector role was made permanent with a move to Calderdale in 2005, where he covered both the Operations and partnerships portfolios. In 2008 he was promoted Superintendent, working at Headquarters in Corporate Review, working on protective services nationally as ACPO staff officer to the Chief Constable, regionally on the Yorkshire and Humber collaboration as regional liaison officer and then internally led the re-structure of Divisions on the Quest project. January 2010 saw a move to North East Leeds as Superintendent Operations where he spent many hours dealing with firearms incidents and on reducing burglary! The August 2011 disorder in Chapeltown brought significant challenges, including 6 weeks spent in the Autumn with the HMIC on the report into the causes of disorder. His last role was as District Commander at Kirklees, where for 3 years his key message was doing the right thing to protect the public, despite the reductions in funding that the police service faced.

  • Session One: Effective Administration of the Police (PDF 271.1KB)
    CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS IN JAPAN By Mr. Masakatsu OKABE Police Superintendent, Deputy Director, Police Policy Research Center, National Police Academy, Tokyo, Japan I. INTRODUCTION Recently, public security in Japan has been severely challenged by the sudden increase in the number of offenses and the remarkable decrease of the clearance rate. For example, according to the latest “White Paper on Police 2002”, the number of Penal Code offenses known to police in 2001 was 2,735,612, which shows a significant increase of 57.0% (993,246) over the last ten years. This is the highest level since the Second World War. On the other hand, the number of Penal Code offenses cleared in 2001 was 542,115, that is to say, the clearance rate was 19.8%. This is the lowest level since the Second World War. In Japan, until the 80’s, the clearance rate had been kept at about 60%, but in the 90’s, it decreased to about 40%. We can say that such circumstances threaten the myth that “Japan is the safest country in the world”. Of course, the general crime situation in Japan is not so serious compared to other countries. For example, the rate of homicide was only 1.1 in 2001 (compared to 5.7 in the United States in 1999) and the clearance rate for homicide is 94%. The number of police officers killed on duty is about 10 per year (including traffic accidents) and the number of cases of a police officer firing his gun on duty is only about 10 per year.

Student Name: CHEN Yuen Tung Eutonia1 Date: 13th April 2012 Word Count: 9570 (excluding cover page, footnote and bibliography) Number of Pages: 39 Abstract It is not a dispute that undercover police officers have a proper role to play in contemporary law enforcement. However, there is no clear legislation in Hong Kong on the issue of whether the undercover agent is, at law, an offender of crime(s). This paper would examine the limitations of the prevailing undercover policing laws in Hong Kong and suggest possible recommendations. In particular, a comparative study of the United Kingdom and South Australia would be made to investigate whether Hong Kong should enact a legislation regulating undercover operations and criminal investigations.
