We are proud to announce that Special Agent Anthony Marsh has earned our Criminal Investigations Division's Case of the Quarter Award for the Third Quarter of 2026! Anthony was recently presented with the award during CID’s annual in-service training at Fort Fisher.

The Case of the Quarter Award recognizes exceptional investigative efforts that advance CID’s mission, provide substantial benefits to the citizens of North Carolina, or make a significant positive impact on the insurance industry.

Special Agent Marsh’s investigation demonstrates this commitment. Through an exhaustive review of more than 14,000 pages of documentation and the ex*****on of multiple search warrants for medical, banking, cellphone, and location data records, Special Agent Marsh conducted a thorough and meticulous investigation that ultimately exonerated a suspect. His comprehensive 20-page investigative narrative documents each aspect of the investigative process and demonstrates the diligence, professionalism, and attention to detail required to pursue the truth.

Not every investigation results in an arrest or criminal prosecution, and our division recognizes that establishing someone’s innocence is just as important as proving someone’s guilt. For this reason, CID uniquely tracks investigative outcomes that include exonerations, in addition to arrests, convictions, and restitution.

Special Agent Marsh’s work is a powerful reminder that our mission is not simply to build cases, but to seek the truth, protect the innocent, and serve the citizens of North Carolina.

Please join us in congratulating Anthony on this well-deserved honor!
