U.S. Law Enforcement Abbreviations and Acronyms |
Below you will find an alphabetical listing
of a wide variety of abbreviations, acronyms
and other terminology used by various police

used and recognized almost exclusively within
law enforcement, other terms have gained wider
acceptance and entered the vernacular of the
general public. Some of these abbreviations
and acronyms can be found in booking reports,
police reports, or used as conversational
shorthand between law enforcement officials.
Our extensive collection of U.S. Gang Acronyms
offers the ethnicity, abbreviations, acronyms,
and other identifiers used by many gangs in
the United States.
PUNCTUATION NOTE: We're cognizant of the fact
that some of the organizations listed below
