Investigation Bureau

The Investigation Bureau is responsible for investigating cases involving felony crimes. While investigating homicides and other high profile cases, we work closely with the District Attorney’s Office and other police agencies. We also coordinate our efforts with the Santa Cruz County Anti-Crime Team (SCCACT) and Santa Cruz Auto Recovery Enforcement.

The Investigation Bureau is responsible for reviewing and investigating all missing persons cases. Investigators reach out to the community through ongoing investigations, crime prevention and through public information that is provided during serious cases.
