Maryland law enforcement has evolved over time, beginning with colonial sheriffs and constables in 1921, growing into today’s modern Maryland State Police (MSP). Our history shows how public safety has evolved to meet new challenges. We are proud of our tradition of excellence in serving and protecting the people of Maryland.
