Bridget Doyle
Sergeant, Miami-Dade Police Department, Florida
Sergeant Bridget Doyle has been a dedicated member of the Miami-Dade Police Department (MDPD) since 2012, beginning her career as a police dispatcher. In 2016, she was accepted to the police academy, and in 2017, she was sworn in as an officer. Within just a year and a half, her leadership skills were recognized, leading to her appointment as a field training officer. Her interest and experience with law enforcement technology led her to apply for the newly created Strategic Cyber Investigations Unit, specifically in the Cyber Crime Investigations (CCI) squad. Sgt. Doyle’s passion and potential were quickly apparent, and she was chosen to be the unit’s first sergeant in 2021. As the CCI sergeant she was sworn in as a federal task force officer, and she has worked closely with various federal agencies on numerous high-profile and challenging cases with the South Florida Cyber Crimes Task Force (SFCCTF).
Sgt. Doyle’s leadership was instrumental in a high-profile investigation into Bitcoin of America, resulting in the indictment of the company’s executives for operating an unlicensed money service business. The case, which uncovered $3.2 million in victim losses and illicit activities, led to a $2.6 million seizure, with $753,000 awarded to MDPD via the Law Enforcement Trust Fund. Additionally, Sgt. Doyle worked with the U.S. Secret Service on an international wire fraud case that led to the return of more than $1.5 million in restitution to victims.
Motivated by the support of her colleagues, Sgt. Doyle continues to strive for excellence, ensuring her team’s success and contributing to the safety of the community she serves.
