Background Information:
There is an existing and continuing possibility for the occurrence of law enforcement
problems which are or are likely to be beyond the control of the services, personnel,
equipment or facilities of the City of Miami Police Department and/or the
participating municipal police departments, along their shared jurisdictional
boundaries. In order for the respective governments to meet their responsibility of
ensuring public safety and peace for the citizens of their communities, it is necessary
for these participating governmental agencies to execute a Mutual Aid Agreement.
The parties to this agreement have joined together in a multi jurisdictional strike force
to combat illegal money laundering, drug trafficking and other drug law violations and
related criminal investigations to disrupt organizations engaging in such activity
through coordinated and long-term investigative, forfeiture, and prosecution efforts.
Due to the departure of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, the Miami -Dade
State Attorney's Office will now manage this agreement.
