Forces de police du Massachusetts

Divisées en Police Deparment et Sheriff Department, les forces de police du Massachusetts veillent respectivement sur les villes et les comtés, avec des moyens humains et matériels variables selon les finances et la taille de la zone à surveiller. L'action de ces différentes forces de police est complétée par la Police d'État, à la juridiction territoriale totale dans le Massachusetts.

Les forces de police d'une partie du Massachusetts ont été très sollicitées après les attentats du marathon de Boston en 2013, à l'issue desquels une immense chasse à l'homme a eu lieu dans Boston et ses environs. 

En plus des forces locales, certains sites tels que les universités ou les aéroports disposent d'une force de police à compétence territoriale limitée. Après avoir remis les suspects à la Justice, s'ils sont condamnés ou en attente de procès, ils sont adressés au Massachusetts Department of Corrections.
