Established in 2018, the Cayuga Nation Police Department is a federally recognized professional police force that serves as a protective unit and enforces the Cayuga Nation's laws. Like other sovereign nations, the Cayuga Nation has full authority to enforce the Nation's laws within the boundaries of its reservation.

In his new leadership role, Mr. DuBois will use his 28 years of law enforcement experience to address day-to-day administration, refinement of policy and procedures, tracking progress toward intermediate and long-term goals, and meeting the professional development needs of officers and staff.

"Deputy Superintendent DuBois is a person of integrity and a proven leader in the Central New York law enforcement community and beyond," said Mark Lincoln, Nation Police Superintendent. "His deep expertise will provide new and important perspectives for our department to help protect and serve our growing community. I look forward to working closely with Michael to better serve the Nation and address our current and future challenges in the most professional manner possible."

"I am very pleased to join the Cayuga Nation Police Department, an organization that has such an exceptional depth of accumulated law enforcement experience," said Mr. DuBois. "I look forward to using my experience and commitment to the best practices in law enforcement to help the Cayuga Nation Police Department as it continues its mission to protect and serve all the Nation's members."

"We are pleased to welcome Mr. DuBois to the Cayuga Nation Police Department's leadership team," said Cayuga Nation Leader Clint Halftown. "His decades of experience will support our ongoing efforts to increase the safety and wellbeing of those residing on our reservation."

Mr. DuBois most recently served at FBI Headquarters in Washington, DC, as a Unit Chief in the Criminal Investigative Division's Violent Crime Section, where he supervised five highly specialized FBI workgroups, forward-deployed overseas personnel, and led an international task force combating technology-facilitated child exploitation. Prior to that, Mr. DuBois served seven years as the Supervisory Senior Resident Agent overseeing criminal investigations in the FBI's Syracuse, Binghamton, Ithaca, and Utica Resident Agencies.
