Bidwell: You wanted to know the name of that anonymous caller?
Colvin: You have it?
Bidwell: Well, I got it narrowed down. A couple of things the guy said on that radio show. Been on the force for fifteen years, commanders have been benched...but before I make any direct enquiries, may I make a suggestion?

He's listing what the caller said that can be used to identify him/her. The sentence is a list.

He said that he has been on the force for 15 years, he said that commanders have been benched, etc.
