P R O G R A M O F E V E N T S

Welcome to the Fifth Annual Metropolitan Police Department Awards Ceremony, honoring the sworn offi cers and civilian employees of the MPDC and our law enforcement partners, civic organizations, and residents who have helped to make a diff erence in our communities over the past year.

IN 1790, MARYLAND AND VIRGINIA CEDED PORTIONS OF THEIR TERRITORY FOR THE PURPOSE OF

ESTABLISHING THE FEDERAL CITY. FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS, THE FEDERAL CITY WAS POLICED

BY CONSTABLES APPOINTED BY THESE TWO STATES. IN 1802, WHEN THE ORIGINAL CHARTER OF

WASHINGTON WAS APPROVED, POLICE AUTHORITY WAS CENTRALIZED AND

POWER WAS GRANTED TO THE CITY ITSELF TO ESTABLISH PATROLS,

IMPOSE FINES, AND ESTABLISH INSPECTION AND LICENSING

PROCEDURES. UNTIL THE CREATION OF THE METROPOLITAN POLICE

DEPARTMENT IN 1861, THE CITY HAD ONLY AN AUXILIARY WATCH

WITH ONE CAPTAIN AND 15 POLICEMEN.

IN 1861, PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN TOOK PERSONAL INTEREST

IN FOUNDING A REGULAR POLICE DEPARTMENT FOR THE DISTRICT OF

COLUMBIA. IT WAS A TIME OF CONSTANT DANGER IN THE NATION’S

CAPITAL. WITH THE BEGINNING OF THE CIVIL WAR, AN ARMY WAS

BILLETED IN THE CITY, GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES WERE INCREASED

BY TEN-FOLD, AND HORDES OF UNSAVORY ELEMENTS DESCENDED

UPON THE DISTRICT’S FEW SQUARE MILES. PRESIDENT LINCOLN

PERSONALLY DISPATCHED AN EMISSARY FROM THE NEWLY CREATED BOARD

OF METROPOLITAN POLICE COMMISSIONERS TO NEW YORK CITY TO BECOME

FAMILIAR WITH THAT SYSTEM, WHICH ITSELF WAS BASED ON THE WORLD-ACCLAIMED METROPOLITAN

LONDON POLICE DEPARTMENT.

THE IDEAS AND KNOWLEDGE GAINED FROM THIS STUDY LED TO THE CREATION OF THE

METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT ON AUGUST 6, 1861. IN SEPTEMBER OF THAT YEAR,

ATTORNEY WILLIAM B. WEBB WAS APPOINTED THE FIRST SUPERINTENDENT OF THE POLICE, WITH

AN AUTHORIZED FORCE OF 10 SERGEANTS AND A NUMBER OF PATROLMEN AS NEEDED, BUT NOT TO

EXCEED 150. UP TO 10 PRECINCTS WERE AUTHORIZED. THE SUPERINTENDENT OF POLICE WAS PAID

$1,500 ANNUALLY, WITH SERGEANTS EARNING $600 AND PATROLMEN $480.

THE SERGEANTS AND MOST OF THE PERSONNEL FOR

TWO PRECINCTS WERE SWORN IN THAT SEPTEMBER.

OFFICERS HAD TO BE US CITIZENS, ABLE TO

READ AND WRITE THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, HAVE

BEEN DC RESIDENTS FOR TWO YEARS, NEVER

CONVICTED OF A CRIME, BETWEEN 25 AND 45

YEARS OF AGE, AND AT LEAST FIVE FEET, SIX

INCHES TALL. THE MEN WENT TO WORK RIGHT

AWAY IN 12-HOUR SHIFTS, SEVEN DAYS A WEEK

WITH NO DAYS OFF AND NO VACATIONS. THEY

WERE ISSUED NEITHER EQUIPMENT NOR BADGES, AND THEY

HAD TO OBTAIN THEIR OWN HANDGUNS. THE FIRST ARREST MADE BY A METROPOLITAN POLICE

OFFICER WAS ON A CHARGE OF INTOXICATION.

Detective Anthony BrigidiniOffice of Superintendent of Detectives, Violent Crimes Branch

Officer Ivan JordanSixth District

detective Anthony Brigidini has been investigating homicides for the past ten years. Over the past two years he has achieved a 100% closure rate—an exceptional record of success, especially given some of the challenging cases he has been

called upon to investigate. This individual’s tenacity and diligence is illustrated through his

handling of a particularly sensitive case…the homicide of a 16-year-old Ballou High School student, who was shot in the head last April at 19th and Trenton Streets, SE.

Recognizing that the case would be high-profile, with plenty of possible distractions, Detective Brigidini stayed focused on the tasks at hand—organizing neighborhood canvasses, examining physical evidence, and showing tremendous empathy to family members and making sure they were safe.

His investigation led him to Johnson Junior High School, where he discovered that a small riot had broken out among students from the victim’s neighborhood and the neighborhood of the possible suspect. The detective and his partner tracked down the source of the melee and soon honed in on a suspect, who was quickly arrested.

Detective Brigidini’s poise, patience and persistence in solving this high-profile homicide is indicative of what he has been doing for the past 10 years—solving crimes, bringing offenders to justice, and trying to comfort the survivors. It is with great pride that the Metropolitan Police Department presents its first Detective of the Year Medal to Detective Anthony Brigidini.

officer Ivan Jordan has distinguished himself by creatively tackling one of DC’s most challenging crime problems—juvenile car theft. Nowhere has this problem been more acute than in the Sixth Police District, where Officer Jordan

is assigned.Recognizing that police needed to do more to reach young people,

this officer initiated a program called “The Joy Ride Is Over.” Using PowerPoint presentations, video and other tools, Officer Jordan has reached hundreds of elementary, junior high, and senior high students throughout the Sixth District.

And beyond his Police Service Area and auto theft prevention duties, this officer has found time to help organize holiday toy drives, summer basketball tournaments, youth field trips, and other activities.

His energy and efforts are definitely having an impact. Serious crime in 6D is down sharply this year—led by a 25% percent reduction in auto thefts. While these positive trends are clearly a team effort … the contributions of this year’s awardee cannot be underestimated.

Congratulations to this year’s Officer of the Year, Ivan Jordan!

D E T E C T I V E O F T H E Y E A R

Presented to sworn, full-time member(s) in the rank of detective, for exceptional skill and outstanding achievements in investigating criminal activity, bringing off enders to justice, and assisting the victims and survivors of crime.

O F F I C E R O F T H E Y E A R

Presented to MPDC sworn, full-time member(s) below the rank of Chief, for exceptional achievement in any police endeavor, including valor, crime pre ven tion, investigative work, community policing, traf�c safety, drug control and prevention, juvenile programs, and training programs.



Yvonne SmithPolicing for Prevention Unit

this year’s honoree seems to be everywhere—and always with the same mission in mind: to strengthen partnerships between the MPDC and the community. As a Community Outreach Coordinator in several police districts over the past year,

Yvonne Smith has shown an uncanny ability to bring people together…and to get things done.

Her efforts at partnership have ranged from the traditional to the “high-tech.” In the Third and Fourth Districts, for example, she organized a “Blue Hat” Patrol Group that monitors activity inside apartment buildings. She also introduced McGruff® the Crime Dog to children in several schools, and created community resource guides on how to access police and other city services.

On the high-tech side, she has organized “Listservs” in several communities, allowing residents and police to instantaneously share information and ideas. And Ms. Smith’s countless write-ups documenting the good work of police officers and communities across the city help to share the Department’s success stories with the force and the residents they serve. Her work is the basis for more than two dozen articles published in the internal Dispatch newsletter and on the offial MPDC website.

A person with boundless energy, remarkable creativity, and a real “can-do” attitude, Ms. Smith handles her job with professionalism and zeal.

Presented to MPDC full- or part-time civilian employee(s) for outstanding per for mance, leadership, innovation, problem solving or consistent excellence.
