law enforcement to the position. For the last 3 years, he was the 
deputy chief for the prosecutor's office; and in that role, he managed 
the daily investigation operations of the Criminal Investigation 
Division.
  In the past, he has worked as a narcotics detective and for the U.S. 
Customs Service in their Financial Crimes Task Force.
  He has done groundbreaking work to reduce gang and gun violence, as 
well as rehabilitate convicted criminals in Hudson County.
  Also, he is a graduate of the prestigious FBI National Academy.
  With these extraordinary credentials, I think Mr. Stith will be an 
exceptional chief of detectives in Hudson County.
