ABOUT US
F.A.Q.

The Professional Standards Bureau (PSB) is primarily responsible for investigating and prosecuting all police criminal misconduct in Essex County. The Bureau serves as the internal affairs unit of the Essex County Prosecutor's Office. The Corruption Unit, which is a component of the PSB, prosecutes and investigates criminal behavior involving public servants and public employees.

When the PSB or Corruption Unit receives an allegation of criminal conduct committed by a sworn law enforcement officer or public servant, the Unit must determine if a criminal prosecution is warranted. If criminal prosecution is warranted, the appropriate unit presents the case to a Grand Jury. If an indictment is returned, that unit is responsible for the case through a trial or plea agreement.

Internal responsibilities for the PSB include random drug screening, investigation of violations of rules and regulations, risk analysis management, and integrity testing.

Help For Victims And Witnesses

If you are a victim or witness of corruption or are aware of a violation of a professional standard by a public servant or employee, contact the Professional Standards Bureau at (862) 520-3700 or call the Essex County Prosecutor's Office of Victim-Witness Advocacy at: 973-621-4687 for more information.
