Who are the US Marshals?

The United States Marshals Service (USMS) is a federal law enforcement agency in the United States. The USMS is a bureau within the U. S. Department of Justice, operating under the direction of the Attorney General, but serves as the enforcement arm of the United States federal courts to ensure the effective operation of the judiciary and the integrity of the Constitution. It is the oldest U. S. federal law enforcement agency, created by the Judiciary Act of 1789 during the presidency of George Washington as the "Office of the United States Marshal". The USMS as it stands today was established in 1969 to provide guidance and assistance to U. S. Marshals throughout the federal judicial districts.

The Marshals Service is primarily responsible for the protection of judges and other judicial personnel, the administration of fugitive operations, the management of criminal assets, the operation of the United States Federal Witness Protection Program and the Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System, the execution of federal arrest warrants, and the protection of senior government officials through the Office of Protective Operations.

Tactical Operations

Deputy marshals carry out hundreds of special missions each year that are related to the Marshals Service's broad federal law enforcement and

judicial security responsibilities. They respond to national emergencies as well as crises involving homeland security. The agency’s Tactical Operations Division oversees such efforts. The division directs, coordinates, manages and supports the following marshal's Service entities: the Special Operations Group (SOG); Office of Emergency Management (OEM); Office of Inspection; Emergency Operations Center; and the Marshals Service Communications Center. The division serves as the primary point of contact between the Office of the Director and the districts, headquarters divisions, and other agencies in regard to operational matters. Whenever the Marshals Service’s director authorizes a special assignment or special security mission, it is the Tactical Operations Division that

carries out those orders.
