Harry Haynes
began his law enforcement career with the Houston Police Department in 1994, where he served four years. In July of 1998, Harry was given the unique opportunity to serve with the Dallas Police Department. He started his career serving as a patrol officer and was quickly promoted to Senior Corporal. After his promotion, Harry was transferred to one of the cities toughest areas where he developed a knack for arresting violent criminals and drug dealers.
In 2006 Harry was selected as a detective to join a street-level narcotic team. For the next two years, Harry and his team would primarily investigate low-level drug dealers and conduct dynamic entry search warrants at “Trap and Stash Houses.” To reinvent himself and to gain more experience investigating long term cases, Harry applied for and was accepted to the Vice Division. His primary duties were investigating and arresting prostitutes, pimps, and criminals responsible for human traffickers.
In 2009, Harry joined the Mid-level Narcotic Unit to conduct a long-term undercover operation. During that case, Harry and his partners were able to infiltrate a violent drug trafficking organization, posing as large-scale drug traffickers. During our "initiation stage", we were targets of the violence perpetrated by the gang member. As a result of the 2-year undercover operation, 28 violent gang members were removed from the community they preyed upon.
Harry now supervises an aggressive street-level undercover unit and has planned and executed 100’s of successful Dynamic Entry Narcotic Search Warrants in some of the most violent locations in the City of Dallas. Based on his successful tactics, Harry has become one of the goes to supervisors when a new drug problem arises in the city.
