Crime-Reduction Principles


Pro-Star centers around 4 crime-reduction principles; they are:
  • Accurate and Timely Intelligence
  • Effective Tactics
  • Rapid Deployment of Personnel/Resources
  • Relentless Follow-up and Assessment
The Pro-Star initiative includes weekly and biweekly meetings with various staff members and other stakeholders to identify crime trends, to develop solutions, and to produce accountability for addressing crime problems.

Districts


To support the initiative the sheriff's office has broken the county into 4 districts and assigned a District Commander and deputies to each district. These Officers are responsible for addressing crimes within their respective districts.
