If there is a specialty unit such as intelligence in a PD, will there only be one team (as opposed to shifts) so they can be sure everyone is always on the same page?

Asked by 678 about 11 years ago

At very large departments, there may be multiple shifts or squads of officers in a specialty unit. At small to medium agencies, there is typically only one squad, and they might work varying hours/days of the week as the job requires.
