Detective Jill Calhoun, Detective Support and Vice Division
Los Angeles Police Department
Jill Calhoun is a dedicated law enforcement professional with 16 years of experience serving the City of Los Angeles. Throughout her career, she has worked in multiple specialized assignments, including Patrol, Narcotics, Special Problems Unit, Missing Persons, Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC), Mental Evaluation Unit’s Case Assessment Management Team, and Human Trafficking Unit (HTU). She has performed these duties in both a Uniform and Undercover capacity.
While every assignment has shaped her career, Jill’s deepest passion lies in combating human trafficking and child sexual exploitation. Her fight against trafficking is personal—early in her police career, she discovered that a close friend had been a victim of human trafficking. This revelation fueled her lifelong commitment to the important cause. While working at HTU she worked to identify, locate and rescue exploited minors while aggressively pursuing their traffickers. Jill has worked extensively on high-risk investigations, collaborating with specialized task forces and advocacy groups to ensure justice for victims and accountability for perpetrators. She is equally committed to education and prevention, equipping officers and communities with the tools needed to recognize and intervene in trafficking situations.
A former collegiate athlete, Jill earned a Bachelor of Arts in Administration of Justice from Howard University. Beyond law enforcement, Jill is deeply involved in community service. She serves as a Commissioner for the Human Relations Commission in Carson, where she works to promote community harmony and social equity. Jill remains steadfast in her mission to protect the vulnerable, educate the public, and strengthen the relationship between law enforcement and the communities they serve.
