First established in 2008 to support law enforcement\nagencies in Onondaga County, the Center is tripling in size and now serves\nOswego and Madison counties<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The state Division of Criminal Justice Services announced\nthe expansion of the state-supported Crime Analysis Center in Syracuse. The\nCenter, one of 10 intelligence and data-sharing centers operated by the state\nin partnership with local law enforcement agencies, is nearly tripling in size\nand now serves Oswego and Madison counties, in addition to Onondaga County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The newly named Central New York Crime Analysis Center\nprovides investigative support and crime analysis that helps police and\nprosecutors in the three counties more effectively solve, reduce and prevent\ncrime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DCJS Executive Deputy Commissioner Michael C. Green toured\nthe Center, which is under renovation, and met with representatives from the\nagencies that partner with DCJS to support the center, including the Syracuse\nPolice Department, Onondaga County District Attorney\u2019s Office and state police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNo other state in the nation supports crime analysis, intelligence development and investigative support on the local level to the extent that New York does,\u201d\u00a0Green said.<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cUnder Governor [Andrew] Cuomo\u2019s leadership, we have more than doubled the number of centers that serve local law enforcement agencies, leveraging technology to provide critical investigative support that has allowed agencies across the state to solve crimes, including murders, robberies and burglaries, as well as exclude individuals from suspicion and avoid wrongful arrests.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The total cost of renovations to the Center is approximately\n$700,000, shared among the Division of Criminal Justice Services, the Syracuse\nPolice Department, Onondaga County, Onondaga District Attorney\u2019s Office and\nOnondaga Sheriff\u2019s Office. When renovations are complete, the Center will occupy\n4,216 square feet of space on the second floor of the Syracuse Police\nDepartment, nearly triple its existing space. It will feature a 16-foot wide by\n4\u00bd-foot high state-of-the-art video wall that will display multiple sources of\ndata and information in real time, including calls for service and feeds from\npublic surveillance cameras, among other technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The renovations will allow the Center to provide real-time\nsupport to police agencies, expand its hours of operations and eventually hire\nadditional staff. There are 17 staff assigned to the Center, which is overseen\nby a director who is a DCJS employee. The expansion will provide space for up\nto 26 staff members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Center is staffed by crime analysts funded by the\nDivision of Criminal Justice Services in addition to analysts, field\nintelligence officers and investigators assigned by the Syracuse Police\nDepartment, sheriffs\u2019 offices in Onondaga, Oswego and Madison counties; the\nOnondaga County District Attorney\u2019s Office, the Onondaga County Probation\nDepartment, state police, the New York National Guard Counter Drug Task Force\nand the New York-New Jersey High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year, the Central New York Crime Analysis Center\nsupported more than 30 local, state, and federal agencies, distributing\napproximately 7,000 analytical and intelligence products to those agencies, a\n20 percent increase over the prior year. For example, analysis done at the\ncenter helped authorities in Onondaga, Oswego and Seneca counties arrest three\nindividuals responsible for 29 commercial burglaries in the fall of 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A board of directors composed of representatives from DCJS,\nthe state police, state Department of Corrections and Community Supervision,\nSyracuse Police Department, Onondaga District Attorney\u2019s Office and Onondaga\nSheriff\u2019s Office oversees the Center. The nine other centers in the state\u2019s\nnetwork also have their own boards of directors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
