Join Our Team

Commitment. Passion. Determination. Courage. Dedication. Strength.

A deputy's character is never lacking in the Office of the Fayette County Sheriff. The ardent quality of our deputies is marked by their commitment to serving the citizens of Lexington-Fayette County. The joy of being able to serve our community is what keeps the heart beating in the Office of the Fayette County Sheriff. Passion drives our deputies to put their lives at risk on a daily basis because their efforts will ensure greater safety for our citizens.

The Office of the Fayette County Sheriff operates on the highest of standards to serve our community, and yet the law enforcement professionals in this office still take service to another level. Our deputies and staff are committed to giving multifaceted service to our community. When papers are served to our citizens, we ensure that those citizens have a shelter and have means of obtaining food and medications. If a victim of domestic violence files for an Emergency Protective Order, we will serve those orders, but we will also give the victim the assistance needed to protect their self from future violence. Service is extenuated beyond the call of duty in the Office of the Fayette County Sheriff because the hearts of the deputies and staff cannot rest. The results of such dedication and passion are abundant in the community. Programs such as the Sex Offender Compliance Team, Project Lifesaver, TRIAD, McGruff, and the Anti-Graffiti program are made possible through the fervent efforts of the deputies and staff at the Office of the Fayette County Sheriff.

Our incessant commitment to serving the Lexington-Fayette County area is driven by the force of compassion. Compassion rests deep in the souls of our deputies and staff; if it did not, service would not be rendered so diligently. It is with great pride that I present to you the Office of the Fayette County Sheriff on this website. Depicting the commitment and service our deputies and staff offer to the Lexington-Fayette County community, this website will acquaint you with the courageous and honorable efforts of the Fayette County Sheriff's Office.

Sincerely,

Fayette County Sheriff
