News of the New York State Sheriffs' Association
New York State Sheriffs
Most of New York’s sheriffs are elected officials, accountable to the citizen voter every four years and responsible for the complex operations of a sheriff’s office. This can include criminal law enforcement, traffic patrol, emergency rescue operations, homeland security programs, SWAT operations, civil emergency response, jail operations, correctional alternative management, courtroom security, and civil litigation process.
