Detective Bureau

The Seneca County Sheriff’s Office Enforcement Division is comprised of several areas of criminal investigation. In general, the bureau is assigned to investigate felony-level crime which means any crime of a more serious nature. Within this wide spectrum, detectives are trained to investigate specific types of crime relating to narcotics, computers, burglary, murder, death scenes, sexual assault, white collar theft, fraud, arson and many other areas of criminal activity. We currently have 3 Detectives assigned to the Detective Bureau, one is assigned to the Enforcement Division, one is assigned to the Dept. of Job & Family Services to handle any crimes and to investigate fraud (this position is funded through JFS/ State Grant) and one is assigned to the Metrich Drug Task Force. All of them are utilized if we have a major case or incident that would require more resources than normal.

The Seneca County Sheriff’s Office currently has two full-time detectives to conduct investigations on criminal complaints received by the Sheriff’s Office. These detectives are responsible for presenting cases to the Prosecutor’s Office and the Seneca County Grand Jury. They also assist the Metrich County Wide Drug Task Force as needed. 

The Enforcement Captain supervises the Detective Division.
