HISTORY OF EPPD

The El Paso Police Department's history relates to and intertwines with more
popular "old-west" history due to its over 120 year history. EPPD has been in
existence since the late 1800’s and was formally “established” in 1884 led by
rapidly-rotating city marshals. These marshals (most former Texas Rangers) were
chosen for their ability to control the rough persons attracted to the "untamed"
west. At that time El Paso was on the “edge” in the westward movement and
violent.

The newspaper stories of the late 1800’s were very colorful and often contained
considerable exaggeration which makes it hard to tell fact from fiction. This
exaggeration was intended for the benefit of the folks back east, those not
adventurous enough to “tame the west”. Early in EPPD history, the city marshal
was often the “worst of the worse”, due to the necessity of the city marshal
having to always display a "rough" reputation so they would not be challenged by
the “bad guys”. Notable/notorious wild west members were:

 * Dallas Stoudenmire: city marshal, notorious gunfighter for his speed and
   precision, and allegedly gunned down “four men in five seconds”.
 * John Selman: early El Paso constable, killed John Wesley Hardin, and
   performed many depraved acts during the Lincoln County War.
 * Thomas Moad: Assistant Marshal, Texas Ranger, helped capture William “Curly
   Bill” Brocious, and the first El Paso Police officer killed in the
   line-of-duty.
 * T.C. Lyons: the first EPPD Chief of Police, not a "rough" character instead
   adopting the beginning of servants and protectors of the public.

Throughout the years there have been notable events that lead to change within
the EPPD with some of them listed below:

 * May 1941: two women applied for police clerk which broke the mold for women
   to eventually become a full-duty officer.
 * June 1942: the newspaper published the first want-ad for a full-duty
   policewoman.
 * December 1945: the race barrier was broken when the Mayor appointed four
   ex-military African Americans as police officers.
 * 1950’s: a significant fire destroyed most of the Police Department’s records.
 * 1972: the EPPD established the first Special Weapons and Tactics (S.W.A.T.)
   Unit.
 * June 1974: the first 5 women graduated from the Police Academy.
