“As Sheriff, it is my responsibility to set the tone and direction for the Sheriff's Office. I am proud of both the officers and civilian staff who comprise our agency.     I have been your Taylor County Sheriff since 1993 and have enjoyed every minute of being your sheriff during my tenure.  Service and Protection have been priorities throughout the past 15 years that I have had the pleasure of serving you in the department. I have relied on some of the best people in this area to not only represent me but to represent you as well.  Your safety has been our main concern, and I am confident that you will continue to come first in our efforts, in the years to come.  From Day One I have instilled in every employee of the Taylor County Sheriff's Office that we must exhibit Integrity, Ethics, Courtesy and Accountability in everything we do. We feel that the Taylor County Sheriff’s Office is one of the premier sheriff’s offices in Texas.  We maintain an effective and efficient organization operating on existing assigned revenues.   We hope the website will be living testimony to that end.  Thank you for visiting the Taylor  County Sheriff’s Office & Adult Detention Center.  Enjoy your visit!”
