Sheriff's Office

Purpose

The sheriff's office is responsible for operating the county jails, investigating crimes, traffic control, and maintaining communications with other law enforcement organizations. Although the sheriff's department has county-wide jurisdiction but mostly concentrates their activities outside city limits where municipal officers cannot operate.
