Commander Todd Brown of Castle Rock PD shares how his agency is leading from the front as early adopters of ForceMetrics who are integrating it across departments to bring better context, clarity, and confidence to every call.
In under 90 minutes, this Real Time Crime Center was able to locate the suspects involved in the shooting, locate their address, and apprehend them. The RTCC Chief said that without their technology working together, an investigation like this would have taken weeks and even months (if it was even possible to find the vehicle in the first place). It's amazing to see how technology, like ForceMetrics Velocity plays a critical role in their success.
When the call came in, it was urgent: a reported se*ual assault. Officers were dispatched immediately, knowing only the limited details provided in the initial report. Situations like this often come with uncertainty, and critical time is often lost trying to piece together who’s involved, what happened, and what risks may still be present.
During a call in Redmond, WA, a dispatcher received a report from a third party describing a couple engaged in a physical altercation. While the caller was able to clearly identify the male involved, the female on scene was uncooperative and refused to provide her identity, creating an immediate gap in situational awareness for responding units.
Englewood PD's Police Desk Officer, Christina Kolk, shares how she makes use of the ForceMetrics Velocity platform when needing to locate information associated with calls for service, and how she's able to stay just as informed, while having access to fewer tools than departments like patrol and dispatch. Tune in below.
From his assignment to community policing unit to using Velocity to enrich CRPD's Safe to Tell program, Sergeant Longuevan outlines just how critical tools that surface public safety data are to his success in maintaining community safety and providing safety and support to students in Castle Rock's schools.
ForceMetrics Velocity™ surfaced the historical CAD connection tied to the plate, prompting officers to dig deeper. That single reference led to identifying a local subject and reframing the case. The platform helped turn an out-of-state plate into a targeted investigative lead, accelerating focus and decision-making at a critical moment.
In a recent interview with Englewood PD Dispatcher Jenna Clancy, she shared how tools like ForceMetrics Velocity™ have enhanced her ability to support officers and improve situational awareness in real time.
From its ease of use to its ability to quickly streamline investigations, Velocity™ helps Detective Polite stay focused on what matters most: solving cases and serving the community.
