When Richard Baldwin first joined the Smyrna Police as a patrolman in 1984, the department employed seven police officers. Smyrna’s police force, like the town it serves, has grown by leaps and bounds since then. Baldwin, who has served as police chief for the past 13 years, now leads a department of 23 officers and seven civilian employees. He’s also seen Smyrna grow from a town of about 4,000 residents in 1984 to one that has now surpassed the 10,000 mark. But soon it will be someone else’s turn to lead the Smyrna Police. The 62-year-old Baldwin, who lives in Odessa, will retire on Sept. 6.
