The exceptions to this requirement are for former MPI personnel whose credentials are temporarily withdrawn. MPI name checks not conforming to the criteria above will not be processed.<br><br> g. MPI and DAC detective/investigator candidates will not be issued credentials, programmed to attend a MPI training program, or awarded the additional skill identifier V5 (for military personnel) prior to receipt of a favorable response from the USACRC. h.<br><br> Establishment and utilization of civilian positions classified as DAC investigators (generally, the 1811 series) and DAC detectives (generally, the 083 series) are authorized. Civilian personnel must successfully complete the Military Police Investigators Course and be issued detective credentials. i.<br><br> Results of name checks for MPI and DAC detectives/investigators by the USACRC will be provided by electronic message directly to the requesting provost marshal with an information copy to the IMA regional office and the MACOM provost marshal. Replies on candidates, which indicate only the date the SECRET security clearance was granted, may be acted upon immediately and the individual may be certified without further verification. Personnel who receive a favorable name check, or who are later evaluated as being suitable must be certified within 120 days of the date of the notification, or the MPI name check, or HRC evaluation will be considered invalid and the candidate must then be renominated in order to be certified.<br><br> j. Replies indicating cno record d reflect that the candidate has no criminal record at USACRC. Certification of these personnel is authorized, provided all other prerequisite requirements are met and maintained.<br><br> This paragraph may be cited as the authority for requesting a new NAC, when required. Credentials issued under this provision to a person who later receives an unfavorable NAC will be withdrawn for cause immediately. k.<br><br> Replies indicating that the candidate does not meet the basic prerequisites, that the nomination does not provide all the required information, or that the nomination was otherwise submitted incorrectly, reflect that the nomination was not processed and corrective action is required. l. Replies indicating that the candidate does not meet the eligibility criteria, the candidate 9s suitability for the program must be evaluated, or that the candidate cannot be certified will be reviewed by CG, HRC, for military personnel, and by the installation provost marshal for civilian personnel.<br><br> Correspondence indicating an unsuitability determination may be shown to or a copy provided to the candidate concerned. Enclosures to the correspondence will not be shown to or provided to the candidate. Requests for such documents must be submitted by the candidate to the originator of the enclosure under the Freedom of Information Act (Section 552, Title 5, United States Code (5 USC 552)) and the Privacy Act (Section 552a, Title 5, United States Code (5 USC 552a)).<br><br> Telephonic inquiries to HRC concerning the status of a MPI evaluation or the reasons for an unsuitability determination will be accepted only from the IMA regional office. Installations or activities not receiving a determination of suitability within 30 days of the date of the message indicating an evaluation is being made should initiate an inquiry to the IMA region concerned. 3 AR 190 330 " 1 November 2005 m.<br><br> The Commanding General, HRC, AHRC 3EPL 3M, is designated as a criminal justice records user for the purposes of determining eligibility, suitability, and qualifications of military personnel for MPI certification. The MPI records and files maintained by that office are designated as law enforcement records within the context of the Freedom of Information Act and the Privacy Act as implemented by AR 25 355 and AR 340 321, respectively, and, as such, are entitled to certain exemptions authorized by law. (1) MPI files may not be incorporated into the official personnel files of the individuals concerned.<br><br> (2) Defense Security Service files, reports of investigation, and other records; Army intelligence files; military police reports; reports of other police and intelligence agencies; and/or copies, extracts, or summaries made therefrom are the property of the agency that prepared them and may not be released by HRC, the IMA region, or the installation provost marshal. (3) These documents may be retained temporarily in the MPI certification files by HRC and the installation provost marshal only for the purpose of determining the eligibility and suitability of personnel nominated for selection and certification as MPI. (4) Should a request for such documents be received, it will be promptly referred to the agency that originated the document or the information, in accordance with AR 25 355, AR 340 321, and other applicable HQDA directives.<br><br> (5) Written requests from individuals, provost marshals, or their commanders that only request the rationale for a candidate 9s non-selection will be treated as a request for documents and will be processed in accordance with this paragraph. n. Non-selection for the investigative program does not deny employment, promotion, or any right or privilege.<br><br> This is an administrative determination based only upon DA policy that personnel selected for the program must be of such character, integrity, good judgment and self-discipline that they can withstand rigorous scrutiny, even under challenge, and can at all times retain the confidence of the military community. With only a small percentage of the U.S. Army 9s military and civilian policemen and women being selected for the MPI and DAC Detective/Investigator Program, the standards are very high.<br><br> Requests for reconsideration of unsuitability or ineligibility determinations must be based upon substantial probative information. In order for the request to be considered, it must be favorably endorsed by the IMA region concerned prior to being forwarded to CG, HRC (AHRC 3EPL 3M). For civilian personnel, the IMA region will be the approving authority.<br><br> 2 32. Training Only those personnel who meet the prerequisites and who have been nominated, screened, and accepted for investiga- tive duties may be programmed for a MPI course. Candidates (military and civilian will be issued credentials only after completing the Military Police Investigator 9s Course at USAMPS.<br><br> Military personnel completing Military Police Advanced Individual Training (AIT) will not be programmed to attend the MPI course immediately upon completion of AIT, regardless of their pending assignments. All investigators should be encouraged to participate in related investiga- tive functional training and to enroll in appropriate correspondence courses. It is essential that investigative personnel remain qualified at all times.<br><br> 2 33. Additional skill identifier a. An additional skill identifier (ASI) V5 may be awarded to designate military personnel trained and certified as MPI in accordance with applicable provisions of AR 611 31, AR 600 38, and this regulation.<br><br> Award of the ASI V5 will be promulgated in appropriate orders. Notification of military personnel will be made to CG, HRC within 30 days of a Soldier 9s graduation from the MPI course. b.<br><br> MPI personnel who, although not subject to disqualification from the program, are not fully productive as MPI at their present duty stations, may be reassigned to other military police duties without loss of the ASI V5 or other penalty, provided they continue to remain qualified as an investigator and possess the potential to successfully perform MPI duties at a later time or location. Upon the determination that an individual is no longer qualified to perform duties as an investigator, the provost marshal will withdraw the MPI credentials for cause and recommend to the appropriate commander that the ASI V5 be withdrawn and that the individual be removed from the program. Field and record enlisted and personnel management files will reflect withdrawal of the ASI V5.<br><br> 2 34. Stabilization Military personnel certified as MPI are expected to complete their tour of duty as an MPI unless removed from MPI duties, and they will not be rotated through MPI assignments and training programs for the purpose of career enhancement or to obtain the ASI V5. Requests for stabilization of MPI at their present duty stations may be addressed to CG, HRC (AHRC 3EPL 3M).<br><br> 2 35. Authorizations and grade structure a. Provost marshals will ensure that 4 (1) Installation, unit, and activity requirements for MPI are reported in accordance with current personnel requ- isitioning procedures.<br><br> 4 AR 190 330 " 1 November 2005 (2) Appropriate grade structure among MPI elements is maintained. Particular attention will be given to preventing any tendency toward over-concentration of noncommissioned officers in MPI spaces. b.<br><br> Unique circumstances may produce some variances, and such situations must be documented and approved by competent authority. c. Supervisory personnel above the rank of SFC will not be issued credentials.<br><br> Chapter 3 MPI/Detective Credentials 3 31. Authorized MPI credentials a. The only authorized credentials for MPI are DA Form 3837 and DA Form 3837 31.<br><br> b. The only authorized credentials for DAC detectives are DA Form 3837 32 (Department of the Army Civilian Detective (Front Page)) and DA Form 3837 33 (Department of the Army Civilian Detective (Back Page)). c.<br><br> Reproduction of MPI or DAC credentials or use of locally produced MPI or DAC identification documents is prohibited. d. Credentials are numbered serially with a letter and a 4-digit number and contain the name, physical description, date of birth, color photograph in civilian clothing, and signature of the individual to whom issued.<br><br> The issuing provost marshal will validate the credentials and the expiration date shown. MPI credentials will be laminated. e.<br><br> Credentials will not be altered in any way. Altered, marred, or defaced credentials will be recovered, and an appropriate inquiry conducted to determine the reasons for the damaged or altered credentials. All damaged, mutilated, altered, or permanently withdrawn credentials will be destroyed, and the reason recorded in the appropriate section of the MPI credentials log.<br><br> Destruction of credentials will be witnessed by a disinterested commissioned officer whose name, SSN, and unit will be entered in the MPI credentials log. 3 32. Issuance of credentials a.<br><br> MPI credentials will be issued in bulk, in serial-numbered lots, by the CG, HRC (AHRC 3EPL 3M) to the IMA regions for MPI and DAC detectives/investigators. b. IMA and intermediate headquarters, above the using installation, will develop procedures for the issuance of credentials in accordance with provisions of this regulation and needs of their subordinate elements.<br><br> c. The provost marshal, a designated military police unit commander, or a civilian serving as the installation provost marshal will issue credentials. d.<br><br> Only authorized credentials will be carried in the credentials carrier. Credential carriers will be procured by local purchase. 3 33.<br><br> Control over credentials a. Control over credentials, above the using installation, normally will be limited to accountability by blocks of serial numbers and provision of adequate security over unused documents. b.<br><br> Provost marshals will impose positive controls over the issuance and accountability of individual credentials that will include 4 (1) Appointment of commissioned officers to serve as the credentials control officer and the alternate credentials control officer. Civilian security officers (GS 310 or above) may serve as credentials control officers when no commissioned officers are available. (2) Establishment of an accountability log for issuance, custody, withdrawal, and disposition of credentials.<br><br> As a minimum, the log will contain 4 (a) Date and serial numbers of credentials received from higher headquarters. (b) Name in which the credentials are issued. (c) Date of issue.<br><br> (d) Name of issuer. (e) Date of withdrawal. (f) Reason for withdrawal.<br><br> (g) Disposition: expiration, destruction, loss, return to higher headquarters. (h) Date of disposition. (i) Name of disposer.<br><br> (j) Name, SSN, and unit of disinterested commissioned officer witnessing destruction of credentials. (3) Establishment of control over unissued credentials. As a minimum, unissued credentials will be afforded the same degree of security provided other DA-controlled forms.<br><br> 5 AR 190 330 " 1 November 2005 (4) Establishment of adequate inspection and control procedures, to include a monthly physical inventory of credentials in the possession of personnel. This inventory will be recorded in the credentials log. (5) Establishment of procedures for permanent and temporary withdrawal of credentials.<br><br> (a) Withdrawal of credentials for cause is permanent, and the credentials will be destroyed. (b) Withdrawal based on permanent change of station orders, termination of civilian employment, or assignment to other duties is also permanent, and the credentials will be destroyed. (c) Withdrawal during the conduct of an investigation involving allegations against an investigator, which could result in withdrawal for cause; during authorized absences (for example, leave, hospitalization, or TDY not associated with a particular investigation); or under other conditions and circumstances which a provost marshal specifies, is considered temporary.<br><br> (d) Provost marshals responsible for issuance of MPI credentials will report the full name, SSN, date of birth, and credentials number of personnel to whom credentials are issued or from whom they are permanently withdrawn by electronic message to The Director, USACRC; Commander, HRC (AHRC 3EPL 3M); and the IMA region, within 5 days of the issuance or withdrawal. Electronic mail may also be utilized (mailcicr@belvoir.army.mil). Reasons for withdrawal must be stated.<br><br> Withdrawals for cause must include the grounds therefore and the details; if this informa- tion is already available in a MP or investigative report, only the military police report or report of investigation (ROI) number needs to be provided. 3 34. Transfer of credentials a.<br><br> DA Form 410 (Receipt for Accountable Form) will be used to issue or transfer credentials, whether individually or in bulk. b. When MPI or DAC detective/investigator credentials are sent through U.S.<br><br> postal channels, certified mail, return receipt requested, will be used. 3 35. Loss of credentials MPI are responsible for safeguarding their credentials and will report loss immediately to their commanding officer or supervisor.<br><br> In addition, responsible commanders will ensure that 4 a. An investigation is conducted into the circumstances of the loss. b.<br><br> An appropriate entry is made in the credentials log. c. Local law enforcement agencies are notified.<br><br> d. A report through the IMA region to CG, HRC (AHRC 3EPL 3M) and the MACOM provost marshal is submitted within 10 days. The report will be brief and contain only data necessary to report that the loss occurred, whether theft is suspected, and whether the individual concerned was removed from the MPI Program.<br><br> 3 36. Expiration of credentials Credentials will be issued for a period not to exceed 48 calendar months from the date of issue. Subordinate commanders may specify periods of lesser duration if appropriate to the needs of their commands.<br><br> 3 37. Withdrawal of credentials for cause a. Withdrawal for cause constitutes disqualification for assignment as a MPI or DAC detective/investigator.<br><br> b. Any of the following are cause for withdrawal of credentials and revocation of the ASI V5: (1) Inefficiency, to include failure to qualify with the assigned weapon or failure to maintain an appropriate level of physical fitness and appearance.

(11) Voluntary request for removal from the MPI program or from assignment to MPI or DAC detective/investigator duties.<br><br> 6 AR 190 330 " 1 November 2005 Chapter 4 Investigations 4 31. General a. MPI and DAC detectives/investigators fulfill a special need for an investigative element within the military police to investigate many incidents, complaints, and matters not within USACIDC jurisdiction, but which cannot be resolved immediately through routine military police operations.<br><br> Investigative personnel are assets of the installation or activity commander, under the supervision of the local provost marshal. USACIDC elements will provide investigative assistance in the form of professional expertise, laboratory examinations, polygraph examinations, or any other assistance requested that does not distract from the USACIDC mission of investigating serious crimes. A spirit of cooperation and close working relationship is essential between USACIDC and the provost marshal office in order to accomplish the mission and project a professional police image.<br><br> (See table 4 31, Crimes investigated by military police.)

Unlawful entry. Weapon, concealed, carrying.<br><br> Wrongful cohabitation. b. Creation of a formalized investigation program does not constitute the establishment of a dual cdetective d force.<br><br> The separation of investigative responsibilities is very distinct. The MPI Program is neither a career program nor a separate MOS. Individuals in the MPI Program are specially selected, trained, and experienced military or civilian men and women performing traditional military police functions.<br><br> Military personnel are identified by their additional skill identifiers (ASI V5) and may be employed in any assignment appropriate to their grade and MOS. c. The provost marshal may authorize wearing of civilian clothing for the MPI investigative mission.<br><br> d. MPI and DAC detective/investigator personnel must be familiar with and meet the requirements of AR 190 314, Carrying of Firearms and Use of Force for Law Enforcement and Security Duties. 4 32.<br><br> Use of MPI and DAC detectives/investigators Only those matters requiring investigative development will be referred to the MPI for investigation. Provost marshals will develop procedures to determine which incidents will be referred to the MPI for completion and which will be retained and completed by uniformed law enforcement personnel. Except as otherwise provided, MPI and DAC detectives/investigators will normally be employed in the following investigations: a.<br><br> Offenses for which the maximum punishment listed in the Table of Maximum Punishment, appendix 12, Manual for Courts-Martial (MCM) is confinement for 1 year or less. Provisions of the Federal Assimilative Crimes Act (18 USC 13) will also be considered when assigning cases to MPI. The same punishment criteria apply.<br><br> b. Property-related offenses, when the value is less than $1,000, provided the property is not of a sensitive nature, such as government firearms, ammunition, night vision devices, or controlled substances. c.<br><br> Offenses involving use and/or possession of non-narcotic controlled substances when the amounts are indicative of personal use only. Military law enforcement personnel will coordinate with the local USACIDC element in making determinations of cpersonal use d. MPI and DAC detectives/investigators may be employed in joint MPI/USACIDC drug suppression teams; however, the conduct of such operations and activities remain the responsibility of USACIDC.<br><br> When employed under USACIDC supervision, MPI and DAC detectives/investigators may also be utilized to make controlled buys of suspected controlled substances. d. Activities required for the security and protection of persons and property under Army control, to include support of Armed Forces Disciplinary Control Boards as prescribed in AR 190 324.<br><br> If MPI detect a crime-conducive condition during the course of an investigation, the appropriate physical security activity will be promptly notified. Crime- conducive conditions will also be identified in military police reports. e.<br><br> Allegations against law enforcement personnel, when not within the investigative responsibilities of USACIDC. f. Offenses committed by juveniles, when not within the investigative responsibilities of USACIDC.<br><br> g. Gang- or hate crime-related activity, when not within the investigative responsibilities of USACIDC. 4 33.<br><br> Installation commander The installation commander, whose responsibilities include ensuring good order and discipline on his installation, has authority to order the initiation of a criminal investigation upon receipt of information of activity of a criminal nature occurring on the installation. 4 34. Military police and the USACIDC a.<br><br> The military police or the USACIDC are authorized to investigate allegations of criminal activity occurring on the installation. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to conflict with or otherwise undermine the delineation of investiga- tive responsibilities between the military police and the USACIDC as set forth in AR 195 32. b.<br><br> When investigative responsibility is not clearly defined, and the matter cannot be resolved between military police investigations supervisors and USACIDC duty personnel, or between military police investigations supervisors and unit commanders, the provost marshal will be informed and will resolve the matter with the appropriate USACIDC activity commander/special agent in charge (SAC) or unit commander. c. The control and processing of a crime scene and the collection and preservation of the evidence are the exclusive 9 AR 190 330 " 1 November 2005 responsibilities of the investigator or supervisor in charge of the crime scene when the military police have investiga- tive responsibility.<br><br> To prevent the possible loss or destruction of evidence, the investigator or supervisor in charge of the crime scene is authorized to exclude all personnel from the scene. The exercise of this authority in a particular case may be subject to the requirement to preserve human life and the requirement for continuing necessary operations and security. These should be determined in conjunction with the appropriate commander and, where applicable, local host country law enforcement authorities.<br><br> d. Unit commanders should consult with the installation provost marshal concerning all serious incidents. Examples of incidents appropriate for investigation at the unit level include simple assaults not requiring hospitalization and not involving a firearm, or wrongful damage to property of a value under $1,000.<br><br> Other incidents should be immediately referred to the installation provost marshal. e. The military police desk is the official point of contact for initial complaints and reports of offenses.<br><br> The provisions of AR 190 345 are to be followed for all military police records, reports, and reporting. (1) When incidents are reported directly to a USACIDC field element, USACIDC may either direct the reporting person to the MP desk or report the incident to the MP desk themselves. (2) Upon receipt of the complaint or report of offense, the MP desk will dispatch an available patrol to the scene of the incident.<br><br> The patrol will take appropriate measures to include locating the complainant, witnesses, suspects, and victims, apprehending offenders, securing the crime scene, rendering emergency assistance, determining and reporting to the MP desk, by the most expeditious means possible, the appropriate activity having investigative responsibility. f. In those cases in which the USACIDC has an ongoing investigation (typically fraud and narcotics matters), they may delay notification to the military police to avoid compromising their investigation.<br><br> g. Procedures will be developed to ensure mutual cooperation and support between MPI, DAC detectives/investiga- tors, and USACIDC elements at each investigative level; however, MPI, DAC detectives/investigators and USACIDC personnel will remain under command and control of their respective commanders at all times. (1) With the concurrence of the commander concerned, MPI and DAC detectives/investigators may provide assist- ance to USACIDC whenever elements assume responsibility for an investigation from MPI.<br><br> (2) When requested by a USACIDC region, district, or the special agent-in-charge of a resident agency, the provost marshal may provide MPI or DAC detective/investigator assistance to USACIDC on a case-by-case basis or for a specified time period. (3) With the concurrence of the appropriate USACIDC commander, CID personnel may be designated to assist MPI or DAC detectives/investigators on a case-by-case basis without assuming control of the investigation. (4) Modification of investigative responsibilities is authorized on a local basis if the resources of either USACIDC or the military police cannot fully support their investigative workload and suitable alternatives are not available.<br><br> Such modifications will be by written agreement signed by the provost marshal and the supporting USACIDC commander. Agreements will be in effect for no more than 2 years unless sooner superseded by mutual agreement. 4 35.<br><br> Off-post investigations a. In CONUS, civilian law enforcement agencies, including state, county, or municipal authorities, or a Federal investigative agency normally investigate incidents occurring off-post. When an incident of substantial interest to the U.S.<br><br> Army occurs off-post, involving U.S. Army property or personnel, the military police exercising area responsibil- ity will request copies of the civilian law enforcement report. b.<br><br> In overseas areas, off-post incidents will be investigated in accordance with Status of Forces Agreements and other appropriate U.S. host nation agreements. 4 36.<br><br> Customs investigations a. Customs violations will be investigated as prescribed in AR 190 341. When customs authorities find unauthorized material such as contraband, explosives, ammunition, unauthorized or illegal weapons or property, which may be property of the U.S.<br><br> Government, notification must be made via electronic message or facsimile to HQDA, OPMG (DAPM 3MPD 3LE). All such notifications will be made to the military police and investigated by CID or the military police, as appropriate. b.<br><br> Military police will receipt for all seized or confiscated U.S. Government property and contraband shipped by U.S. Army personnel.<br><br> Property receipted for by military police will be accounted for, and disposed of, in accordance with evidence procedures outlined in AR 195 35. c. When it has been determined that the subject of an MP customs investigation is no longer a member of the U.S.<br><br> Army, the investigation will be terminated, a final report submitted indicating the subject was released from the U.S. Army, and an information copy of the report furnished to the appropriate civil investigative agency. d.<br><br> Recovery of weapons and significant amounts of ammunition will be reported by the U.S. Army element receipting for them from the U.S. Customs Service in accordance with AR 190 311 and AR 190 345.<br><br> 4 37. Drug enforcement activities Provost marshals and U.S. Army law enforcement supervisors at all levels will ensure that active drug enforcement 10 AR 190 330 " 1 November 2005 programs are developed and maintained, and that priorities for resources reflect the critical and important nature of the drug enforcement effort.<br><br> a. MPI and DAC detectives/investigators will conduct investigations of offenses involving use and possession of non-narcotic controlled substances. A copy of all initial, interim, and final military police reports concerning drug investigations will be provided to the USACIDC at the local level.<br><br> Enforcement activities will be coordinated with the USACIDC at the local level. b. Any investigation of offenses involving possession/use of non-narcotic controlled substances generated as a result of another USACIDC investigation may be transferred to MPI with the concurrence of both the supporting USACIDC commander and provost marshal.<br><br> c. Elements of USACIDC will be provided the opportunity to interview subjects, suspects or witnesses in MPI or DAC detective investigations involving controlled substances without assuming responsibility for the investigation. MPI and DAC detectives/investigators may also interview subjects, suspects or witnesses of USACIDC investigations.<br><br> 4 38. DA drug exemption policy a. The U.S.<br><br> Army Substance Abuse Program (ASAP), as set forth in AR 600 385, limits the use by the Government of protected evidence against a soldier in actions under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) or on the issue of characterization of service in administrative proceedings. Evidence protected under the "limited use" policy is governed by AR 600 385, Section II. b.<br><br> The "limited use" policy does not preclude investigation of continued drug use after a Soldier 9s initial entry into ASAP, or use of evidence of drug use obtained prior to the Soldier 9s self-referral; however, a Soldier may not be investigated for evidence derived from his self-referral to ASAP. This includes admissions that the Soldier provides as part of his initial entry into ASAP concerning the Soldier 9s own drug abuse or his possession of drugs incidental to his/ her personal use occurring prior to the date of initial referral to ASAP. This also includes an enrolled Soldier 9s admissions to a physician or ASAP counselor concerning drug use or possession incident to personal use occurring prior to the initial date of entry into ASAP.<br><br> c. Protected evidence may not be used as a basis for investigation of the Soldier from whom the protected evidence was obtained, nor may it be used in support of UCMJ charges investigated or preferred prior to the date of self-referral. However, a Soldier 9s self-referral to ASAP does not insulate him/her from investigation or prosecution for offenses based on evidence obtained prior to or independent of his/her self-referral.<br><br> d. It is Army policy to encourage voluntary entry into treatment and rehabilitation programs. ASAP participants will not be approached for the purpose of soliciting information; however, ASAP participants may, on their own initiative, volunteer to provide information and assistance.<br><br> 4 39. Identification of MPI a. During the conduct of investigations, MPI will identify themselves by presenting their credentials and referring to themselves as cINVESTIGATOR. d When signing military police records the title cMilitary Police Investigator d may be used in lieu of military titles.<br><br> Civilian personnel will refer to themselves as cINVESTIGATOR d if they are classified in the 1811 series, and as cDETECTIVE d if they are in the 083 series. Civilian personnel will use the title cDAC Investigator d or cDAC Detective, corresponding to their classification series. b.<br><br> The use of titles such as cMr. d, cMrs. d, cMiss d or cMs. d in connection with an individual 9s identification as an MPI is prohibited, except when the individual is employed in a covert investigative role. When MPI or DAC detectives/investigators are employed in covert roles, supervisors will ensure that coordination with USACIDC or civilian law enforcement agencies is accomplished as appropriate. 4 310.<br><br> Access to U.S. Army facilities and records a. MPI and DAC detectives/investigators will be granted access to all U.S.<br><br> Army facilities, records, or information when necessary for an ongoing investigation, consistent with the investigator 9s clearance for access to classified national defense information, the requirements of medical confidentiality, and the provisions of applicable regulations. b. Upon presentation of proper identification when conducting an official investigation, MPI and DAC detectives/ investigators will be authorized access to information contained in medical records and may request extracts or transcripts.<br><br> Medical records will remain under the control of the records custodian, who will make them available for courts-martial or other legal proceedings. Procedures for obtaining information from medical records are contained in AR 40 366. 4 311.<br><br> Authority to apprehend or detain MPI and DAC detectives/investigators have authority to make apprehensions in accordance with Article 7, UCMJ; Rule for Courts-Martial 302 (b)(1), Manual for Courts-Martial, United States 2002 (Revised Edition). They may detain personnel for identification and remand custody of persons to appropriate civil or military authority as necessary. Civilians committing offenses on U.S.<br><br> Army installations may be detained until they can be released to the appropriate Federal, state, or local law enforcement agency. 11 AR 190 330 " 1 November 2005 4 312. Authority to administer oaths MPI and DAC detectives/investigators have authority pursuant to Article 136(b)(4), UCMJ to administer oaths to military personnel who are subject to the UCMJ.<br><br> The authority to administer oaths to civilians who are not subject to the UCMJ is Section 303b, Title 5, United States Code (5 USC 303(b)). 4 313. Legal considerations a .<br><br> C o o r d i n a t i o n b e t w e e n i n s t a l l a t i o n j u d g e a d v o c a t e s a n d i n v e s t i g a t o r s m u s t o c c u r d u r i n g t h e c o n d u c t o f investigations. b. The use of the DA Form 3881 (Rights Warning Procedure/Waiver Certificate) to warn accused or suspected persons of their rights is encouraged.<br><br> c. When necessary, investigators will coordinate with a judge advocate or civilian attorney employed in the Office of the Staff Judge Advocate for the purpose of establishing a legal opinion as to whether sufficient credible evidence has been established to title an individual in a report. Investigators should also coordinate with the Office of the Staff Judge Advocate in drafting search warrants and in determining whether probable cause exists to conduct a search.<br><br> 4 314. Retention of property Reports of investigation, photographs, exhibits, handwritten notes, sketches, and other materials pertinent to an investigation, including copies, negatives, or reproductions, are the property of the U.S. Government, either as owner or custodian.<br><br> 4 315. Requests for assistance Requests for assistance on investigative leads pertaining to persons or events outside the area of the investigation will be made directly to another appropriate installation, which will respond, in the shortest practical time (preferably within 30 days). Such requests may be made telephonically, by letter, by e-mail, or by electronic message, as appropriate.<br><br> 4 316. Crime records support a. U.S.<br><br> Army law enforcement personnel are authorized to request name checks at USACRC and to obtain copies of identified USACIDC or MP reports for official use during investigative activity for a law enforcement purpose. Such activities will be administered in accordance with chapter 5, AR 195 32. MPI and DAC detectives/investigators may make record checks and request records only if their certification has been confirmed.<br><br> Record checks made in accordance with this paragraph are for operational law enforcement purposes and such name checks will not be used to screen MPI candidates b. Provost marshals and MPI and DAC detectives/investigators requesting routine name checks will submit requests by letter or electronic message to the Director, USACRC, USACIDC, ATTN: CICR 3CR, 6010 6 th Street, Building #1645, Fort Belvoir, VA 22060 35506; electronic mail may also be used (mailcicr@belvoir.army.mil). c.<br><br> Expeditious checks to determine whether an individual has any previous military criminal record will be made in accordance with AR 195 32. Messages must be addressed to Director, USACRC, USACIDC, ATTN: CICR 3CR, 6010 6 th Street, Building #1645, Fort Belvoir, VA 22060 35506. Telephonic name checks will be made as prescribed in Appendix F, AR 195 32.<br><br> d. The USACRC reply will indicate that no records are on file or will cite the specific files available. In the event that a CID Criminal Information Report is indicated, the requestor must contact the local supporting CID office and request that the report be made available.<br><br> Requests for all other USACIDC and MP reports will be directed to the USACRC as prescribed in chapter 5, AR 195 32. 4 317. Crime laboratory support a.<br><br> Requests for criminal investigation laboratory support will be submitted in accordance with AR 195 32 and AR 195 35. b. Packaging procedures for shipping evidence are contained in FM 3 319.13, Law Enforcement Investigations, and AR 195 35.<br><br> c. Only USACIDC personnel are authorized to import suspected controlled substances into the United States for analysis or evidentiary purposes. Should the military police in overseas areas have need to ship controlled substances into the United States for any purpose, the appropriate USACIDC evidence custodian will be requested to process, package, and mail the evidence.<br><br> In such cases, the military police will provide assistance to the USACIDC evidence custodian in the packaging, processing, and preparation of forms. 4 318. Use of National Crime Information Center (NCIC) Provost marshals will make maximum use of NCIC terminals available to them and will establish liaison with the U.S.<br><br> Army Deserter Information Point (USADIP) as necessary to ensure timely exchange of information on matters concerning deserters. The USADIP will ensure replies to inquiries from provost marshals on subjects of MP investiga- tions are transmitted by the most expeditious means. Use of NCIC will be in accordance with AR 190 327.<br><br> 12 AR 190 330 " 1 November 2005 4 319. Polygraph activities MPI and DAC detectives/investigators will utilize the polygraph to the full extent authorized. Requests for polygraph examination assistance will be forwarded to the supporting USACIDC element in accordance with provisions of AR 195 36.<br><br> The investigative or intelligence element requesting approval to conduct a polygraph examination will submit a completed DA Form 2805 (Polygraph Examination Authorization) to the authorizing official. A request may also be sent via an electronic message or electronic mail or media provided all elements of the DA Form 2805 are included in the request. Approvals will be obtained prior to the conduct of an examination.<br><br> Telephonic requests, followed with written requests, may be used in emergencies. The requesting official will include the following data on every polygraph examination request for criminal investigations: a. The offense, which formed the basis of the investigation, is punishable under Federal law or the UCMJ by death or confinement for a term of 1 year or more.<br><br> Even though such an offense may be disposed of with a lesser penalty, the person may be given a polygraph examination to eliminate suspicion. b. The person to be examined has been interviewed and there is reasonable cause to believe that the person has knowledge of, or was involved in, the matter under investigation.<br><br> c. Consistent with the circumstances, data to be obtained by polygraph examination are needed for further conduct of the investigation. d.<br><br> Investigation by other means has been as thorough as circumstances permit. e. Examinee has been interviewed on all relevant subjects requested for testing and the polygraph examination is essential and timely.<br><br> 4 320. Evidence Military police are authorized to receive, process, safeguard, and dispose of evidence, to include non-narcotic con- trolled substances, in accordance with AR 195 35. If no suitable facility is available for the establishment of a military police evidence depository or other operational circumstances so dictate, the evidence custodian of the appropriate USACIDC element may be requested to receipt for and assume responsibility for military police evidence.<br><br> Personnel selected as military police evidence custodians need not be trained as MPI and should not be issued MPI credentials, unless they are also employed as operational MPI. Further information concerning evidence collection and examination procedures can be found in FM 3 319.13. 4 321.<br><br> Police intelligence a. The purpose of gathering police intelligence is to identify individuals or groups of individuals in an effort to anticipate, prevent, or monitor possible criminal activity. If police intelligence is developed to the point where it factually establishes a criminal offense, an investigation by the military police, U.S.<br><br> Army Criminal Investigation Command (USACIDC), or other investigative agency will be initiated. b . P o l i c e i n t e l l i g e n c e w i l l b e a c t i v e l y e x c h a n g e d b e t w e e n D O D l a w e n f o r c e m e n t a g e n c i e s , m i l i t a r y p o l i c e , USACIDC, local, state, Federal, and international law enforcement agencies.<br><br> One tool under development by DOD for sharing police intelligence is the Joint Protection Enterprise Network (JPEN). JPEN provides users with the ability to post, retrieve, filter, and analyze real-world events. There are seven reporting criteria for JPEN: (1) Non-specific threats.<br><br> (2) Surveillance. (3) Elicitation. (4) Tests of security.<br><br> (5) Repetitive activities. (6) Bomb threats/incidents. (7) Suspicious activities/incidents.<br><br> c. If a written extract from local police intelligence files is provided to an authorized investigative agency, the following will be included on the transmittal documents: cTHIS DOCUMENT IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATION AND USE. COPIES OF THIS DOCUMENT, ENCLOSURES THERETO, AND INFORMATION THEREFROM, WILL NOT BE FURTHER RELEASED WITHOUT THE PRIOR APPROVAL OF THE INSTALLATION PRO- VOST MARSHAL. d d.<br><br> Local police intelligence files may be exempt from certain disclosure requirements by AR 25 355 and the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). 4 322. Investigative funds In accordance with AR 195 34, contingency limitation .0015 funds are under the control of USACIDC but are available to MPI for certain extraordinary expenses.<br><br> All MPI and DAC detectives/investigators must be familiar with AR 195 34 and clearly understand how the funds are administered and what expenditures are authorized. Assistance may be obtained from the fund custodian of the supporting CID field element. When MPI and DAC detectives/investigators 13 AR 190 330 " 1 November 2005 use contingency limitation .0015 funds, the funds will be administered in strict compliance with AR 195 34.<br><br> Certifying and approving officers for MPI expenditures will be limited to those appointed in AR 195 34. 4 323. Special investigative equipment a.<br><br> The technical nature of the MPI function necessitates the use of special investigative equipment and materials. If such equipment and materials are not provided by table of distribution and allowances/table of organization and equipment (TDA/TOE) authorization, or through routine supply channels, or are not available when needed, command- ers should consider local purchase or procurement. The extraordinary nature of the MPI mission often dictates the need for a priority for resources.<br><br> b. The unique nature of the MPI function often necessitates the use of certain surveillance techniques requiring special communications equipment. MPI should be provided a separate radio frequency for this function when feasible.<br><br> c. MPI are authorized to utilize unmarked vehicles of commercial design and colors in the performance of their official duties. TDA authorizations should provide one vehicle for each two MPI authorized.<br><br> 4 324. Electronic equipment procedures a. DOD Directive 5505.9 and AR 190 353 provide policy for the wiretap, investigative monitoring and eavesdrop activities by DA personnel.<br><br> The recording
