PROGRAM NARRATIVE
1. Problem Statement (See Instructions on pages 14.a and 14.b.1
Prior to the inception of our Auto Theft Task Force in 1994, the City of Paris
and Lamar County had a high rate of automobile thefts er capita. In 1993 Par"
one hundred forty (140) automobile thefts, or e (1) per one hundred eighty (180) ;
persons, according to UCR reports.
In 1994, our unit accomplished a twenty-five percent (25%) reduction in the
auto theft rate in Paris and Lamar County. In 1995, the rate was reduced another ten
percent (10%). Our goal in 1996, was to reduce the theft rate by five percent (5%).
The UCR reports show a decrease of approximately eight and one-half percent
(8.5%) for the year of 1996.
Since the inception of our auto theft unit in September, 1994, we have
recovered approximately two million dollars ($2,000,000.00) in property. We have
made over one hundred (100) arrests.
The agencies in our grant area do not have the manpower to have full time
auto theft investigators. The ATPA funded unit is a very valuable asset in this area.
Our Auto Theft Task Force works closely with the Texas Department of Public Safety
MVTS to cover the area we have. With the assistance of D.P.S., we hav-!l been able
to provide auto theft training for patrol officers in this area. We had twenty-five (25)
officers to attend a basic auto theft school in December, 1996.
There are no duplicating or overlapping, existing activities, as we have the
only Auto Theft Task Force in this area.

We have continued to make a difference in the auto theft rate in our program

Our goal is to decrease the auto theft rate in Paris and Lamar County
by five percent (5%) during the upcoming grant year.
Our proposed activities and objectives are to continue providing two
(2) full-time police officers to work in a multi-jurisdictional area in
cooperation with the other agencies and organizations to prevent,
educate, apprehend, and prosecute in the incidents of auto theft.
Our project will impact the stated problem by allowing two (2) officers
to continue working full-time on auto thefts rather than a part-time
basis by several officers. The word has spread in the grant area that
we are concentrating on this problem.
The functions of the personnel involved will continue to be a Detective
Sergeant and an Investigator who work diligently to enforce all auto
theft laws, make proper reports, maintain records, and work to educate
officers and citizens on ways to prevent auto theft.
Our unit continues to impact this area. The estimated population of the
grant area is over 100,000.
The City of Paris and Lamar County continue to be involved in many
other grant programs, such as the Regional Drug Task Force, Police
Athletic League, Juvenile Gang Officers, Community Policing Program,
and School Resource Officers. These grants are ongoing.
First and foremost would be the UCR crime reports, which are prepared
showing the amount of vehicles, stolen and recovered.
We are the only Auto Theft Task Force in northeast Texas that assists
other agencies. We have complete cooperation with the Texas
Department of Public Safety, M.V.T.S. and the East Texas Task Force
in Tyler to cover all areas in east and northeast Texas.
We will continue to train officers of the surrounding area in detecting
and preventing auto thefts.
All officers have had cross-cultural and ethnic~iversity training which
is conducted on a regular basis at the Paris Police Department. Also,
we are an equal opportunity employer.

renewal. During the past year Task Force Officers have assisted our Department or
occasions, not only on vehicle thefts, but other criminal offenses as well. Our Coun
approximately 1200 square miles and outside the incorporated city limits, the populi

abandoned. Due to budget limitations and lack of manpower, our Department is no
always able to adequately follow up on tins type of investigation. The Task Force h
greatly benefitted our County and we would like to see the Motor Vehicle Task FOIl

Dear Ms. Citerne:
It is my understanding that the Paris Law Enforcement Detection Apprehension
Program grant is presently up for renewal by your group. I would like to take
this opportunity to recommend this program for another year under this grant.
Haskell Maroney and Joel Chipman have done an outstanding job in Lamar County
in working on motor vehicle thefts for the last year. Both officers work very
well with my department and I have great faith in their expertise in dealing
with thefts, unauthorized use of motor vehicle and hindering secured creditor
cases.
Auto theft continues to be a problem in the state of Texas and here in Lamar
County. with these officers able to devote 100% of their time to these cases,
we have been able to prosecute an ever growing number of motor vehicle cases.
With kind regards, I am
