Police Detectives & Investigations Unit

Responsibilities

SDSU detectives follow up on crime reports with workable leads or those that constitute part of an ongoing crime series. Detectives secure, process, and dispose of physical evidence as well as establish and maintain liaison with other law enforcement agencies. Once a suspect has been identified, the case is sent to the San Diego District Attorney or City Attorney for filing in criminal court.

The SDSU Police Investigations Unit is staffed by two full-time detectives:

We handle a caseload of crimes such as:

  • auto theft
  • battery
  • burglary
  • fraud
  • robbery
  • sexual assault

Pre-employment Background Investigations

SDSU investigators are also responsible for conducting pre-employment background investigations on police officer candidates. Attention to this important function allows our department to be confident that we have screened and selected only the most highly-qualified candidates to become police officers at San Diego State University.
