David Curry
Criminal Intelligence Analyst, Maryland State Police
2023
David Curry is a criminal intelligence analyst employed by the Maryland State Police and assigned to the state’s fusion center since 2019. His primary role is to collect, evaluate, and analyze hate bias incidents and hate crimes in Maryland. This data is used to develop the annual State of Maryland Hate Bias Report, which is intended for senior executives, policy makers, community stakeholders, and the concerned public. In addition, this hate bias data is also used to highlight and bring awareness of concerning or particularly egregious incidents of hate to investigators that would otherwise go unnoticed. This year, Mr. Curry was presented with the SHIELD Award by the Anti-Defamation League for his efforts at analyzing hate bias data. Prior to this, he served for 12 years as an analyst supporting fugitive operations with the United States Marshals Service. He lives with this wife and two children just outside of Baltimore.
To me, Eradicate Hate was the most important gathering of 2021 for those of us who work on issues related to domestic extremism and organized hate. The Summit uniquely combined a variety of perspectives, including experts, civil society representatives, politicians and policymakers, and the families and loved ones of victims. Eradicate Hate has the important mission of standing against the rising tide of hate and extremism in our society, and it’s an honor to be able to support this mission.
