Montgomery County Municipal Task Force

The Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office oversees the Montgomery County Municipal Drug Task Force. The county has fifty-three (53) municipalities and a population in excess of 700,000. The Narcotics Enforcement Team of the District Attorney’s Office was established in 1982. The unit consists of 11 full time detectives and is the largest investigative unit in the county, dedicated solely to drug enforcement.

In addition to the Narcotics Enforcement Team, the District Attorney’s Office adopted the Drug Task Force in 2000 with the assistance of funding secured from the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office. The Municipal Drug Task Force originally consisted of 165 sworn police officers, who participated in narcotics investigations. Since then, the Task Force has evolved to approximately 450 officers.

The Drug Task Force serves as a central source of drug intelligence, which is disseminated throughout the municipalities within Montgomery County.

The Drug Task Force also provides aggressive drug patrols designed to combat open-air drug dealers and violent street crimes related to drug dealing.

Lieutenant Steven Forzato is the commander of the District Attorney’s Narcotics Enforcement Team. Lieutenant Forzato has designated Detective Michael Altieri as the Task Force Coordinator. Detective Altieri’s function is to supervise all task force activity, maintain and disperse drug intelligence, coordinate appropriate assistance for officers with their investigations and provide yearly up to date training.
