  • 2020 Annual Report
    Iowa Department of Public Safety 2020 Annual Report Protection All Ways A Message from the Commissioner On behalf of the Iowa Department of Public Safety, (DPS), I want to thank you for your interest in learning about those who dedicate their lives keeping Iowans safe. This report seeks to highlight the efforts and successes put forth by all members of the Department of Public Safety as they strive to provide public safety services with leadership, integrity, and professionalism. It is my sincere hope that after reading this report, you will have a greater understanding and appreciation for the countless ways these public servants continually serve our citizens. Drivers and passengers depend on the Iowa State Patrol to keep our roadways safe while providing courtesy, service, and protection. The Division of Criminal Investigation provides unparalleled investigative assistance designed to seek justice for the most vulnerable Iowans and completes an incredible number of background checks to ensure safe employment decisions are made. The Division of Narcotics Enforcement is committed to keeping illegal drugs out of the hands of Iowa’s youth, and the State Fire Marshal ensures that volunteer firefighters in rural communities are prepared to support and protect their communities. We are incredibly grateful to the Governor, the Legislature, and the citizens of Iowa for their unbending support. As you review this report, do not hesitate to contact us with any questions regarding our efforts to provide world-class public safety services. It is truly a privilege and honor to serve the citizens of Iowa. Sincerely, Stephan K. Bayens Commissioner 2 COMMISSIONER’S OFFICE.

  • In the Court of Appeals of Iowa
    IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA No. 1-718 / 11-0379 Filed November 9, 2011 RODNEY HICOK, Petitioner-Appellant, vs. IOWA EMPLOYMENT APPEAL BOARD and IOWA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY, Respondent-Appellees. ________________________________________________________________ Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Robert B. Hanson, Judge. Rodney Hicok appeals from the judicial review order affirming the Employment Appeal Board‟s determination that the commissioner fired him for good cause. AFFIRMED. Pamela J. Walker of Sherinian & Walker Law Firm, West Des Moines, for appellant. Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, Jeffrey C. Peterzalek, Assistant Attorney General, and Rick Autry, Iowa Employment Appeal Board, for appellees. Heard by Danilson, P.J., and Tabor and Mullins, JJ. 2 TABOR, J. A veteran member of the Iowa State Patrol lost his job after circulating inappropriate jokes in violation of Department of Public Safety rules. Rodney Hicok now challenges the judicial review order affirming the Employment Appeal Board‟s determination that the commissioner fired him for good cause. Hicok contends the commissioner imposed the harsh consequence after receiving pressure from state legislators who read about Hicok‟s initial transgression in the newspaper. Because we agree with the district court that Hicok has not shown the Board‟s action violated any provision of law or that the Board failed to consider any relevant and important matters, we affirm. I. Background Facts and Proceedings Hicok started his career with the Department of Public Safety (DPS) as a capitol police officer in 1981. He became a state trooper in 1985. Hicok received his promotion to sergeant in 2000.

    IN THE SUPREME COURT OF IOWA No. 16–1720 Filed June 22, 2018 Amended September 6, 2018 STATE OF IOWA, Appellee, vs. TERRY LEE COFFMAN, Appellant. Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Story County, James B. Malloy, Judge. The defendant seeks further review of a court of appeals decision affirming his conviction for operating while intoxicated, contending that the district court erred in denying his motion to suppress. DECISION OF COURT OF APPEALS AND JUDGMENT OF DISTRICT COURT AFFIRMED. Matthew T. Lindholm of Gourley, Rehkemper, & Lindholm, P.L.C., West Des Moines, for appellant. Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, Kevin Cmelik and Zachary Miller, Assistant Attorneys General, Jessica Reynolds, County Attorney, and Shean Fletchall, Assistant County Attorney, for appellee. 2 MANSFIELD, Justice. This case requires us to decide whether an officer was justified in pulling behind a vehicle and activating his emergency lights when the vehicle was stopped by the side of a highway after 1:00 a.m. with its brake lights engaged. We conclude the officer’s actions were justified under the “community caretaking function” exception to the warrant requirement of the Fourth Amendment and article I, section 8 of the Iowa Constitution. For this reason, we affirm the conviction for operating while intoxicated that resulted from this roadside encounter. I. Background Facts and Proceedings. In the early hours of May 22, 2016, Story County Sheriff’s Deputy Nicholas Hochberger was on assigned patrol in the southern part of the county. When he was outside Slater at approximately 1:08 a.m., he spotted a vehicle pulled over on the side of the highway with its brake lights on.

    PUBLIC SAFETY The Impact of Terrorism on State Law Enforcement By Chad Foster and Gary Cordner Traditionally, state-level law enforcement has represented about 10 percent of total police employment in the United States. In keeping with this employment level, state law enforcement has traditionally played an important, but relatively small role in the overall picture of policing America. The information collected for this project, however, indicates an expanding role for state law enforcement since 2001, partly due to new roles and responsibilities associated with homeland security, and partly because state police are filling gaps and vacuums created by shifts in federal law enforcement priorities. Thus, while it is true that all types of police agencies have been significantly affected post Sept. 11, it seems that state law enforcement agencies have been affected the most. In recent years, Arizona established the Arizona tablished in 1835.2 Most state agencies, however, are Counter Terrorism Information Center, a combined relatively new.
