Organized Crime South Unit
The Organized Crime Control South Bureau is charged with collecting, extracting, summarizing, analyzing and disseminating criminal intelligence data gathered from a variety of sources within the southern region of the State. Processing this data is critical to the Division's strategic assault on crime within New Jersey. The Bureau also provides the Superintendent and Attorney General with the information necessary to combat organized criminal groups and terrorists that could threaten the security of the State and Nation.
The mission of the Organized Crime Control South Bureau is to diminish and control the capacity of criminal organizations to influence New Jersey's society, economy, and government.
The Bureau seeks to accomplish this mission by continually monitoring the activities of significant criminal groups operating in the southern region of the State. The primary function of the Organized Crime Control South Bureau is to inform the Superintendent of significant organized criminal activity occurring in northern New Jersey, and to develop criminal cases. Collection of intelligence and law enforcement is performed by the Organized Crime South Unit, Drug Trafficking South Unit, Street Gang South Unit, and Casino Unit personnel.
Information concerning activities of criminal groups is obtained through various means and sources of information. Intelligence data is gathered, analyzed, and forwarded to Bureau Command for further dissemination to the Superintendent, Investigations Branch, and other law enforcement agencies.
Through these means, the Organized Crime Control South Bureau monitors and investigates activity of all identified street gangs and the seven La Cosa Nostra crime families operating in the state, and regularly develops information which results in the initiation of major organized crime investigations. The Bureau also monitors and investigates the activities of non-traditional crime groups present in southern New Jersey.
