Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies Public Comment Portal

The purpose of this public portal is to receive comments regarding an agency's compliance with CALEA standards, engagement in the service community, delivery of public safety services, and overall candidacy for accredited status. These comments can be in the form of commendations or concerns. The overall intent of the accreditation process is to provide the participating agency with information to support continuous improvement, as well as foster the pursuit of professional excellence.

IMPORTANT: CALEA is not an investigatory body and subsequently the public portal should not be used to submit information for such purposes.  Additionally, there will be no response other than acknowledgement to submissions; however, the information will be considered in context to its relevancy to compliance with standards and the tenets of CALEA® Accreditation.

How to File a Complaint or Commendation for CPSS Staff

The College has adopted the following procedures for members of the community to commend the performance of CPSS personnel, or to address allegations of misconduct or abuse of authority.

To commend CPSS personnel for outstanding performance of duty at any of our campuses, contact the chief of police at 216-987-4425. Give the name of the person, the action you would like to commend and the approximate time the action occurred.

Generally, whether a student, staff member or faculty member files a complaint, the process involves reporting the alleged misconduct or abuse of authority and transmittal of that report to the site supervisor and the patrol lieutenant of the Department of Campus Police and Security Services. CPSS is charged with the investigation of all complaints lodged.

The department shall exercise its discretion in conducting the investigation in a manner that takes into consideration the rights of the accused, the rights of the complainant and the safety and needs of the College community while the investigation is being conducted.

Based on its investigation, the department will find the complaint substantiated or non-substantiated. If the complaint is substantiated and discipline is warranted, CPSS will coordinate its proposed discipline with the Human Resources department. CPSS will notify both the staff member and the complainant regarding the findings and disciplinary outcome.

Complaints lodged by individuals other than students, staff and faculty shall be filed with the Department of Campus Police and Security Services or Human Resources. The CPSS will conduct its investigation, make findings and, where discipline is warranted, will coordinate with Human Resources. The complainant will be notified of the outcome of the investigation and any discipline imposed.

Crime Alert Postings

Date of Issue: September 21, 2023
Nature:
Theft from Motor Vehicles
Date of Incident:
September 20, 2023
Location:
Metropolitan Campus (Lots 1, 2, 4, 6 & 11)

The Department of Campus Police & Security Services (CPSS) has received multiple reports of a theft from a motor vehicle. These incidents are currently under investigation.

Safety Tips:
Keep your car doors locked and windows – including the sunroof closed
Activate your security system if you have one
Secure your car keys
Remove valuables from the car
Park near other people. Go for busy lots where there’s plenty of pedestrian and vehicle traffic

Date of Issue: August 7, 2023
Nature: Theft of Motor Vehicle
Date of Incident: August 7, 2023
Location: Metropolitan Campus (Lot #6)

The Department of Campus Police & Security Services has received multiple reports of motor vehicle thefts and theft of motor vehicle parts and accessories (catalytic converters).

There are several different types of anti-theft devices available for vehicle owners:

Steering wheel locks (the club)
Brake locking systems (pedal locks)
Wheel clamps (Tire locks)
GPS Tracking Devices (locating stolen vehicle)
Hidden battery disconnect switch

Theft is a crime of opportunity and thieves look for “easy opportunities” to take someone’s things. The tools listed above may not prevent crime 100%, but they are deterrents because it makes it hard to take your things.

Cuyahoga Community College Campus Police & Security Services wants to remind the campus community to report any instance of unusual encounters or suspicious behavior by calling the department at 216-987-4325. You’re encouraged to program that number into your mobile phone.
