Lieutenant Robert "Bob" Wilson
Bob Wilson joined the Baltimore Police Department in 1968, just as Baltimore was recovering from riots and major civil unrest. He was assigned to the Northern Police District, where he worked the streets until 1972, when he was promoted to sergeant and transferred to the Chief of Patrols Office. He later served as a Community Relations Sergeant in the Northern District until his promotion to lieutenant.
As a lieutenant, he was assigned as shift commander in the Northern District and then as commander of the Crime Resistance Unit.
Wilson was a member of the International Society of Crime Prevention Practitioners, the Maryland Crime Prevention Association, and the Maryland Crime Watch Steering Committee.
He earned Certified Protection Professional (CPP) status from the American Society for Industrial Security (ASIS) by demonstrating his mastery of security knowledge through job experience and academic prerequisites. Wilson was one of a very few police officers to achieve this status.
He is also a recipient of the Jimmie Swartz Foundation Medallion Award, which is recognized for his "humanitarian qualities and unselfish deeds."
During his tenure with the Police Department, Wilson received four official commendations, including the Unit Citation.
