Michael J. Todd QPM (1957- March 11, 2008), was Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Police from 2002 until his death, having previously served as an Assistant Commissioner in the Metropolitan Police and Assistant Chief Constable in Nottinghamshire. He first served in Essex Police, which he joined in 1976. In 2006 he became a vice president of ACPO (Association of Chief Police Officers), a post he held until his death.

He had obtained a first class honours degree[1] and a masters degree in politics from University of Essex.[2] Married with three children, his social interests had been listed as mountain biking, computer games and reading, particularly military and political biographies.[3]

After a report from Greater Manchester Police, rescue teams from Llanberis, North Wales, started the search at 01:00 on 11 March, 2008. After being alerted by hill walkers who found personal possessions, Todd's body was found in a beauty spot in the Bwlch Glas area of Snowdon.[4] His death is reported as an apparent suicide.[5]
