Over the past three years, the jail has successfully passed every State of Tennessee inspection with no infractions. This accomplishment reflects the dedication of our detention staff and their commitment to excellence in corrections.

Our Dispatch Center is the vital link between the public and emergency response. Over the past three years, our team has maintained a flawless record with no infractions on all Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) audits. This level of performance speaks volumes about the professionalism, accuracy, and accountability of our communications staff.
Sheriff Keeton added:
“These numbers are more than just statistics, they represent countless hours of dedication, sacrifice, and teamwork. Our deputies, investigators, dispatchers, and detention staff have worked hard to serve this county with integrity and heart. I’m incredibly proud of the men and women who wear this badge and the difference they make every single day.”
