Maryland Criminal Intelligence Network (MCIN)

The Maryland Criminal Intelligence Network (MCIN) program is envisioned as a coalition of criminal justice agencies that collaborates and coordinates tactics, resources, and intelligence through comprehensive data sharing, cross-jurisdictional partnerships, effective policies, and supporting technologies. MCIN focuses on identifying, disrupting, and dismantling gangs and violent criminal networks involved in the distribution of illegal drugs, the use of firearms in crimes of violence, human trafficking, or other inherently violent criminal enterprises, through enforcement, prevention, intervention, and information sharing. MCIN seeks to reduce violent crime by facilitating the formation of information technology-enabled partnerships that lead to the improved investigation and prosecution of violent criminals and their networks. This funding shall be used to improve intelligence infrastructure and support strategies for collecting information that lead to investigations that identify, disrupt, and dismantle criminal networks, to employ subject matter experts trained to investigate such networks, and/or pay for expert prosecutors to prosecute these cases at the federal and state levels.
