Officer Smith, better known as Smitty, is a peace officer at the New New York Police Department. He was retired in the summer of 3011, but somehow returned to the force. His main partner is URL, and they often go keeping the peace together.

Smitty is generally the weaker part of the partnership, where URL is the one who gets them both motivated to do their job. Unlike URL, Smitty has been fired on occasion, but was hired back on the force after capturing Robot Santa, who was actually Bender. URL revealed that Smitty took an early retirement shortly before Philip J. Fry joined the NNY Police Department (6ACV16).

Somehow, he came out of retirement and rejoined the force sometime after Fry got fired (6ACV24). Shortly afterward, he and URL arrested Hubert and Cubert Farnsworth for violation of Bender's license agreement (6ACV25). He was also involved in the pursuit of Bender after he kidnapped Ben from Bev.
