The Special Investigations Department (S.I.D.) is a totalitarian police force on the Giants homeworld, a fascist equivalent of the Federal Bureau of Investigations on Earth. Its purpose is to deal with assorted dissidents but also to takes the lead in police cases dealing with the Earth people.
Not much is known about the history of the agency, but it seems to have evolved a purpose out of preserving the totalitarian control of its government as well as concocting the propaganda to keep its citizens under control. In later years, it has developed an interest in capturing stranded Earth people on the planet in hopes of learning and stealing Earth technology. To this extent, it has branded Captain Steve Burton and his allies as enemies of the state on false charges of sabotage and espionage despite Burton's help and assistance on several cases. The agency has several divisions and officers, the primary local SID officer is Inspector Kobick, who ruthlessly hunts and pursues the stranded Earth inhabitants (dubbed "Little People) as political dissidents.
It has been revealed that several Giants are not supportive of the S.I.D. and have helped or concealed the Earth people on numerous occasions. Several Giants are not supportive of the government but still want the reward for their capture. The S.I.D. has frequently captured and taken into custody giants who have helped, assisted or protected the Earth people.
