Chief Tim Carroll (ROCKLAND 1)
TCARROLL@ROCKLANDMAINE.GOV
Chief Timothy “Tim” Carroll was born in Camden and grew up on Mount Desert Island. He attended the University of Maine at Orono, receiving an Associate Degree in Legal Technology, to better prepare him for his pursuit of a law enforcement career.
In 1991, fresh out of college and on his 21st birthday, Tim started his law enforcement career at the Rockland Police Department. A few years later, Tim joined the Bar Harbor Police Department as a Patrol Sergeant and then Maine Marine Patrol, where four of his family members had or were serving; during his tenure at the Marine Patrol, Tim received his Coast Guard Captains License and still holds it.
In 1998, Tim was honored with a life-saving award after he and another Marine Patrol Officer rescued three people involved in an overturned boat accident in Penobscot Bay, approximately three miles off the coast of Camden. Part of that rescue involved resuscitating an eight-year-old girl, who was submerged; she was hospitalized and survived.
In 2004 Tim left the Marine Patrol for a civilian career but in 2009, Tim re-entered law enforcement as a Patrol Deputy with the Knox County Sheriff’s Office. Not long after being hired, Sheriff Dennison promoted Tim to the Patrol Administrator position. Sheriff Dennison later appointed Tim as her Chief Deputy in 2010, where he served until his election to Sheriff in 2018. Tim’s position included overseeing not only the Patrol and Criminal Investigations Divisions but also the Knox County Jail. During this time as Sheriff, Tim was very active with the Maine Sheriffs’ Association and served on several county and state committees with a focus on improving today’s law enforcement services.
Tim served as the Sheriff of the Knox County Sheriff’s Office until becoming Chief Of Police in Rockland in July of 2022.
Tim has an extensive background in law enforcement leadership and is most proud of his graduating from the 270th session of the Federal Bureau of Investigations National Academy. Tim comes from a long line of law enforcement family members, including his father who served over 51 years in law enforcement. For a short time, both he and his father were serving concurrently as Chief Deputies, Tim in Knox County and his father in Somerset County.
Tim has been an active athletics coach in his community and enjoys his time mentoring youth of all ages. He lives in Owls Head with his wife and son, his daughter is grown and lives in California.

“I am proud of the great group of officers here at the Rockland Police Department. Of course, we are always looking inward at how we are doing things and how we can improve but have truly fostered a culture of professional and community-oriented policing. I believe a law enforcement agency can be both proactive in addressing crime, while still being community-focused and compassionate with those who we interact with. One of my favorite things about coming to work is thinking of outside-of-the-box ways to best solve problems in the community and doing my personal best to support our team of officers in their mission of professional policing. Policing is truly done best with community support, engagement, and when we all work together. I am proud of the community partnerships we have developed. Sir Robert Peel said it best “The police are the public and the public are the police; the police being only members of the public who are paid to give full-time attention to duties which are incumbent on every citizen in the interests of community welfare and existence.”

K9 Marek
K9 Officer Marek is a 6-year-old German Shepherd born at Von Woden Kennels in Weld Maine. Unlike other police dogs, K9 Marek started his life as a house pet, but the family soon realized that Marek was meant for something much more. At 14 months old, Marek was given back to the kennel because he was too much for the family to handle. The owner of the kennel, who is also a K9 handler, tested Marek to see if he would be right for the job, and well, Marek bit through the trainer’s thumb….So we guess that meant he passed?
Marek was paired with Officer Tim Davis and it was clear from the beginning that they were two peas in a pod. Trainers say that handlers always get the dog that they need and not the dog that they want. This was very true for Officer Davis and K9 Marek and it is very clear that Officer Davis would be lost without Marek (literally and figuratively).
Marek is certified as a dual-purpose, patrol and narcotics K9. Marek is trained in tracking, suspect apprehension, handler protection, evidence searching, building searching, and to alert to the odor of four different illegal substances.
Since coming to the Rockland Police Department, Marek has successfully assisted officers in locating hidden narcotics and several successful tracks, both in Rockland and surrounding jurisdictions. If you see K9 Marek out and about or riding around by Officer Davis don’t be surprised if he barks at you. It is not that he doesn’t like you, he is just very intense and takes his job very seriously.
