Who is responsible for notifying the commanding officer of the district when an arrest warrant is served at the wrong location?

The investigator who executed the warrant is responsible for notifying the commanding officer of the district when an arrest warrant is served at the wrong location. It is the duty of the officer involved in the execution of the warrant to ensure that all pertinent information, especially mistakes that occur during the process, is reported promptly. This enables the district to address any issues arising from the error and take appropriate actions. Communication about such incidents is crucial for maintaining accountability, ensuring procedural integrity, and providing accurate information for any potential follow-ups or investigations into the mishap.

Regarding the other choices, the commanding officer of the district involved typically focuses on overseeing operations and may not be immediately aware of specific incidents unless reported. The commanding officer of Southwest Detectives may have a broader oversight role but is not directly involved in warrant execution and reporting specific errors unless escalated. The dispatcher on duty manages communication and coordination but is not usually responsible for reporting issues related to the execution of warrants. Thus, the responsibility clearly falls to the investigator who was directly involved in the situation.
