That said, most fans believe that the city is somewhere on the East Coast, specifically around Philadelphia, whose skyline was used in establishing shots of Spiral. Jigsaw further establishes that the city isn't Cleveland, as Eleanor is offered the position of medical examiner in that city. In the first film, Tapp and Sing are seen using a map with the layout of Washington, D.C. The license plates seen in the movies deliberately leave off the name of the state, although their style resembles that of New Jersey ones. Where the Hell Is Springfield?: The department is part of the government of an unnamed American city, which is the setting for the movies, with the only hint as to the location being the TV network WNKW, implying that it's east of the Mississippi River.SWAT Team: The department has a division with several of them, though Rigg and the unnamed Lead SWAT Officer are the only known SWAT leaders so far.This not only worsens the department's efforts to capture the Spiral Killer, but also left many past crimes without resolution. Justified in Spiral, where it's shown that the department has had plenty of Dirty Cops and a long history of Police Brutality, especially after Zeke turned in Pete for murdering a witness.Alongside the FBI, the department isn't necessarily incompetent and is always active in the Jigsaw case, but they never manage to capture any of the Jigsaw killers and accomplices they know about (only getting their corpses after they have been killed by someone else), or even discover certain Closed Circles like the Nerve Gas House (which includes the infamous Bathroom) and the barn (which somehow went unnoticed for over a decade). Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique: Rigg physically assaults one abusive parent and potentially other suspects, and in Saw II encourages Eric to beat the answers they want out of John, implying that this is standard practice for the department.
One of them was even an actual Jigsaw killer (who attempted to recruit Rigg into the role as a bonus point), and another is a copycat. The department has had several Cowboy Cops, a few Rabid Cops, and plenty of officers who framed people, commited torture, shot suspects in the back or (in the case of the commanding ones) covered evidence regarding cases of corruption.
The police department of the unnamed city where the movies take place. The department's seal and logo from Spiral, as seen in another police station sign.
