Kim C. Dine is a forty-nine-year (41 sworn, 8 as a consultant) veteran of federal, major city, and local municipal policing. Dine started his police career in 1975 with the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) in Washington, DC, where he spent twenty-seven years and rose to the rank of Assistant Chief. After retiring from MPD, Dine was Chief of Police for fourteen consecutive years, leading the Frederick, Maryland Police Department (FPD) in Maryland, and then the United States Capitol Police (USCP). Throughout serving with these three agencies Dine instituted significant reforms and gained expertise in multiple critical aspects of policing including building community trust, crime reduction strategies, community policing, juvenile crime prevention, managing major security events, dignitary protection, use of force and internal investigations, discipline, instituting effective crime reduction strategies, and anti-terrorism/security policing. Since 2016, Dine has been consulting nationally with CNA, the Department of Justice, the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), the National Policing Institute (formerly the National Police Foundation), Police2Peace, FuturePolicing.org, the Police Executive Research Forum, and private consultants.
During his tenure as MPD’s First District Commander (an area encompassing Capitol Hill, public housing, and downtown Washington DC) homicides were reduced by 60% and community policing flourished. As Assistant Chief, he commanded Internal Affairs, the Force Investigation Teams, the Disciplinary Review Division, and the Office of Equal Employment Opportunity, where Dine managed, supervised, and implemented historic internal changes regarding use of force investigations via the Memorandum of Agreement MPD created with the Department of Justice to institute agency-wide use of force reforms which reduced MPD’s police shootings and are now followed nationally by many agencies.
In Frederick, Maryland, the State’s second largest city, Dine focused on building a new strategy of community policing and intelligence-led policing in the Frederick Police Department (FPD), improving training, producing the agency’s first ever strategic plan, acquiring national accreditation for the first time for the department (flagship status), and aggressive use of technology. These efforts resulted in a ten-year record of crime reduction, problem solving, building trust and communication with all constituents, and implementation of a cohesive and multi-faceted approach to combating crime and maintaining a high quality of life in Frederick. By instituting community policing and partnerships, marshaling resources, problem solving, intelligent use/acquisition of technology, extensive crime analysis, aggressive acquisition of grants, and maximization of resources, the agency was able to effectively combat crime and build bridges with Frederick’s African American, GLBTQ, Muslim, Deaf, and Latino communities. Dine created a mental health task force by working with the mental health community through effective partnerships to improve service to those suffering from mental illness and minimize use of force issues. FPD represented municipal police agencies in Maryland in piloting the lethality assessment which is now used both statewide and nationally to reduce domestic violence. Frederick became known as a safe city with an enviably high quality of life protected by a professional and responsive police department. The FPD was forged into an accessible, credible, responsive, and transparent department recognized as an outstanding agency in Maryland and nationally.
As Chief of the United States Capitol Police, with a sworn staff of over 1,800 officers, in addition to daily leading security operations for the world’s most iconic symbol of freedom (and a top threat target), Dine managed, led security, and directed multiple major national events with worldwide attention, including the second Inauguration of the 44th President of the United States Barack Obama, four State of the Union addresses, multiple joint sessions of Congress and the historic visits of Pope Francis, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and other world leaders, and the African Summit with fifty heads of State-the largest such visit at the U.S. Capitol. During his tenure, Dine successfully oversaw hundreds of demonstrations, revamped hiring, recruiting and recruit training, created a new internal disciplinary office (Office of Accountability and Improvement) with new protocols to increase accountability, civilianized the public information office, completed a 100 million dollar state of the art, digitally encrypted radio system, revamped the USCP protocol plan for the Congressional Community regarding active shooter events and sent the entire department through active shooter training, hired a Diversity Officer to ensure fairness and diversity across USCP and progressively addressed racial and gender inequities through critical appointments, created a Labor Relations Specialist position to improve labor/management communication, began crisis intervention training for officers, attained CALEA’s Gold Standard Accreditation, and produced a new strategic plan for the USCP.
Dine has been recognized by the United States Congress on the floor of the Senate, the District of Columbia, the State of Maryland Governor’s Commission on Hispanic Affairs (awarded the Hispanic Heritage Award for Public Safety Hero of the Year), the NAACP for Frederick County, MD, Frederick County Human Relations Commission Award-Theodore W. Stephens Lifetime Achievement Award for Human Rights, Frederick’s LGBTQ “Ally of the Year” Award (inaugural award), and the Community Service Award-African American Resources Cultural Heritage Society, (AARCH).
