New York State Police

Description

• One of the ten largest law enforcement agencies in the nation, the Division of State Police is unique as the only full-service police department in New York with statewide jurisdiction; its only specific statutory restriction is that its members may not exercise their powers within the limit of any city to suppress rioting or disorder except by direction of the Governor or upon the request of the mayor of the city with approval of the Governor. In many rural areas the New York State Police is today, as it was at the time of its establishment in 1917, the principal sometimes only department providing police services to the public. In other areas it shares jurisdiction and works cooperatively with local agencies. This is accomplished by making available to local departments the full range of State Police specialized units, scientific and criminal investigative services, and other resources smaller departments typically cannot sustain themselves.Wherever it operates, the State Police follows a simple philosophy: to provide whatever level of service or assistance is necessary, and to complement or supplement, as appropriate, the efforts of local law enforcement agencies.
