EPISODE 43 JIM DINKINS; DRUG CARTELS, HOMELAND SECURITY INVESTIGATIONS, AND THE CAPTURE OF EL CHAPO
Jim Dinkins has had an amazing career in Law Enforcement on the Federal level where he was a Special Agent with U.S. Customs, at the Special Agent in Charge office in San Francisco, California. At that time in American’s history, Colombian drug cartels were one of the greatest threats to the nation, and Jim developed an investigative expertise in undercover money laundering and drug smuggling investigations. During this time, Jim also became a founding member of the Warrant Entry & Tactical Team, and later the Special Response Team (SRT), a team of highly trained and specially equipped officers responsible for executing high-risk search & arrest warrants. Jim was selected to become the ICE, Director of Investigations, where he led the formation and served as the first head of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in June 2010, as the Executive Associate Director. HSI became the principle investigative component of DHS and was formed by merging the Office of Intelligence, Office of Investigations, and Office of International Affairs.
This newly formed agency devoted to the investigation of a wide array of transnational crime, including: terrorism; national security threats; narcotics smuggling; transnational gang activity; child exploitation; human smuggling and trafficking; illegal exports of controlled technology and weapons; money laundering; financial fraud and scams; worksite and employment crimes; cybercrime; intellectual property theft and trade fraud; identity and benefit fraud; and human rights violations and war crimes. As head of HSI, Jim supervised a 9,000+ employee organization with 200 US offices and 72 overseas locations in 47 countries. Jim served as head of HSI until his retirement from federal law enforcement in April 2014.
