About Undercover Units




In England, the first police force was established in 1829 by Sir Robert Peel as the Metropolitan Police of London. The force occasionally employed undercover detectives, but there was much public anxiety that these powers were being used for the purpose of political repression. The 1845 official police orders required all undercover operations to be specifically authorized by the superintendent. It was only in 1869 that Police commissioner Edmund Henderson established a formal undercover (plainclothes) detective division.

In the United States, a similar route was taken with the establishment of the Italian Squad in 1906 by the New York City Police Department under police commissioner William McAdoo to combat crime and intimidation in the poor Italian neighborhoods. Various federal agencies began their own undercover programs shortly afterwards the Federal Bureau of Investigation was founded in 1908.

New York State Police , 10-75.net/apparatus/ny/state/nysp/1G72.htm. There were a number of proposals for a State Police force during the early 1900s but its creation was considerable from union interests. In 1917 in response to a murder of a construction foreman Sam Howell in Westchester County in 1913. A bill for the creation of the New York State Police was passed and the New York State Police was officially established on April 11, 1917 by the New York State Legislature. The division's first superintendent was George Fletcher Chandler, he was responsible for most of the division's early development. Chandler made the term New York State Troopers and it was the first time officers were carrying their weapons exposed on a belt, which was not common practice at the time.  The New York State Police is also responsible for protecting the Governor of New York and Lieutenant Governor of New York. “New York State Police.”  Wikipedia , Wikimedia Foundation, 25 Apr. 2018
