Mr.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Mulligan has been in law enforcement for over 35 years; over 20 of those years were
spent as either a supervisor or manager. Nearly 18 years of his experience as a
supervisor/manager were in the California Department of Justice. While at the CA DOJ
he supervised many task force operations including but not limited to:
- DEA Methamphetamine Task Force (San Francisco DEA)
- We Hop To/Asian Organized Crime Team (with FBI and SFPD)
- “Gypsy” Murder Task Force (with SFPD)
- Oakland Police Dept. “Crack” Cocaine Task Force
- San Jose Vietnamese Crime Task Force (with SJPD and FBI)
As a Special Agent in Charge of two large regional offices at the DOJ, he directed the
investigative activities of many teams of agents and task force officers. He has essential
experience with personnel and discipline as well as grant management.
Mr. Mulligan also spent over 12 years at the Berkeley Police Department and has
received many commendations from such people as two San Francisco Police Chiefs, the
Attorney General, an FBI Director and the United States Attorney’s Office.
Since an external candidate with comparable experience could have negotiated and
received a starting salary at step 4, it would be inappropriate to start Mr. Mulligan at a
lesser salary simply because of his current employment status with the Department; in
fact, the District Attorney believes that his knowledge of the Department makes him a
more valuable candidate.
