Property crimes are categorized by the dollar value of the loss sustained by the victim. Generally, thefts where the loss amounts to more than $400 are considered felonies, whereas losses of $400 or less are considered misdemeanors. Investigators follow up on cases based on priority and severity.
Modern technology has significantly impacted the types of property crimes typically reported. Identity theft, for example, is a high tech crime to which specially trained investigators are assigned.

The division also tracks habitual sexual offenders.

Examples of this would include the Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS), and the computer-generated suspect composite program.

Financial Crimes 441-6416 Sgt. L. Leach -- Financial Crimes | Cpl. D. Thiels -- Financial Crimes | Financial crimes generally refer to what the title implies. Just about
anything that involves the illegal transfer of money or negotiable
documents by way of a check, credit card, debit card, or any other type of
access device. (This usually does not include the outright theft of cash
money. That is treated as a property crime.) Some of the common names of
these types of crimes are forgery, access device fraud (commonly referred
to as credit card fraud) and unauthorized use of an access card as theft.
The financial crimes section also investigates cases of identity theft.
In most cases, investigators only investigate felonies. Almost all
financial crimes are not classified as a felony unless the value of the
money compromised is $300.00 or more.
