1 UNITED STATES MARSHALS SERVICE Northern District of Texas APRIL 4-10, 2005

2 Operation FALCON is a nationwide fugitive apprehension operation coordinated by the United States Marshals Service (USMS) combining the resources of federal, state, city, and county law enforcement agencies in a joint effort to locate and apprehend criminals wanted for crimes of violence. Operation FALCON was initiated in most major cities throughout the United States and its Territories on April 4, 2005 and ended on April 10, This specific time frame was selected to coincide with National Crime Victims Rights Week. One fundamental obligation of the criminal justice system is to vigilantly pursue offenders creating a safer community for victims and others The United States Marshals Service has embraced this concept for many years dating back to our original Fugitive Investigative Strike Team (FIST) operations in the early 1980s and 1990s. Operation FALCON has built upon our original FIST concept and produced a first time National FIST operation that targeted violent offenders throughout the United States. The USMS utilized its existing network of 88 District and Regional Fugitive Task Forces to provide an infrastructure during Operation FALCON. In the Dallas & Ft. Worth areas, the Dallas Ft. Worth Fugitive Apprehension Strike Team (DFW FAST) is but one of the 88 above mentioned task forces that participated in this historic initiative. Established in January of 2004, DFW FAST is a combination of diverse resources from 11 agencies. DFW FAST and other USMS Fugitive Task Forces were created at the direction of the Attorney General of the United States to assist state and local law enforcement agencies in the apprehension of fugitive felons. Randy P. Ely, United States Marshal for the Northern District of Texas expresses his sincere gratitude for the outstanding efforts of so many law enforcement and administrative personnel who worked on Operation FALCON locally. Each of you should be proud of the role you played in this historical event. Not only were you able to honor victims of violent crime by your efforts, you personally participated in one of the largest roundups of violent criminals in our nation s history, all without significant injury to anyone. Realizing that most of you track down violent fugitives on a daily basis, we all owe you a debt of gratitude for helping restore peace and tranquility to neighborhoods all over North Texas. Thanks for an outstanding job well done!!
