Hi Mary:
Stephen
NEW COVE COMMUNITIES FORENSIC TECHNICIAN
The Riverside County Sheriffs Department recently announced the addition of Forensic Technician
Jillian Frisby to the Palm Desert Station. Forensic Technician Frisby began her duties on July 1,
2013, and serves the Coachella Valley Cove Communities of Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and
Indian Wells.
In early 2013, the cities of Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and Indian Wells authorized the Sheriff's
Department to add a full-time Forensic Technician to their police services contract at the Palm Desert
Station. Forensic Technician Frisby is assigned to assist patrol personnel with the collection of
evidence at residential and commercial burglaries, robberies, and other crimes occurring in the Cove
Communities. She has a mobile response vehicle and is capable of processing crime scenes for
items of evidence, including fingerprints, shoe impressions, and photographs.
This position was created to save patrol officers time and return them to patrol duties as soon as
possible, while increasing the quality and quantity of evidence collected at crime scenes. Thefts are
the most common type of crime reported in all three Cove Communities and comprise more than
96% of the crimes reported. In 2012, of the 3,380 total Part 1 crimes reported in the Cove
Communities, 3,251 of them were theft related property crimes.
Lt. Sullivan will introduce Forensic Technician Frisby at the September 12, 2013, City Council
meeting. In the interim, please contact Stephen Y. Aryan, Risk Manager, should you have any
questions on this matter.
