Special Investigation and Prosecution Division (SIPD)

The Special Investigation and Prosecution Division (SIPD) was created by the Legislature in 2022 to investigate and prosecute public corruption, fraud, economic crimes, and human trafficking.

SIPD has two sections: the Corruption, Fraud, and Economic Crimes Section and the Human Trafficking Abatement Section.

The Corruption, Fraud, and Economic Crimes Section's mission is to serve as a public integrity unit designed to investigate and prosecute crimes committed by government employees in their official capacities, crimes involving government money, and complex white-collar criminal activity.

The Human Trafficking Abatement Section’s mission is to investigate and prosecute human trafficking in all of its forms, including sex trafficking and labor trafficking.

SIPD’s team consists of deputy attorneys general, special agents, forensic analysts, a human trafficking abatement coordinator, a human services professional, and a skilled team of support staff.
SIPD is currently seeking an experienced deputy attorney general in the Corruption, Fraud, and Economic Crimes Section.
If there is an emergency, call 911. Do not submit a tip to SIPD.
