Tom Green County Sheriff's Office Launches New Website

 

On behalf of myself and the dedicated men and women of the Tom Green County Sheriff's Office and Detention Facility, I would like to welcome you to our official website. Our mission is to provide quality law enforcement services to our citizens and visitors in the most professional, open, and ethical manner possible. As your Sheriff, I take that mission seriously. I recognize that no law enforcement agency can operate at its greatest potential without the supportive input from the citizens it serves.

 

I want to leverage today's technology to keep our community informed because I believe that an informed public is a safer public. I actively solicit and encourage the cooperation of all citizens to assist the Sheriff's Office by communicating critical information through this web site, our phone app, or through common means of communication. This will assist us in keeping our community a safer place to live, work, and raise a family. Sharing information from the Sheriff's Office with our citizens, and through the information we receive from our citizens, we can reduce and limit the opportunities for crime to occur and bring justice to those that violate the law. I hope that you find the Tom Green County Sheriff's Office website insightful and useful. Our hope is to provide you with adequate information about the services that are available to keep you and your family safe.

 

As we watched the horrific terrorist attack in Orlando, Florida on Sunday, it becomes even clearer that it takes both the community and law enforcement working together to keep our communities safe. This is done through effective communication. It is my hope that this website will be an effective means for citizens and law enforcement to communicate.

 

The new Website, http://TomGreenCountySheriff.org and mobile site, http://tomgreencounty sheriff.org/mobile.php features press releases, messages from Sheriff David Jones, updates, information about each division of the Sheriff's Office, as well as a link to submit crime tips via email.

 

Other features of the Website include:

 

Alert Notifications - allows the public to sign up for alert notifications from the Sheriff's Office via email or text - including press releases, messages from the Sheriff, most-wanted updates, special alerts and jail roster updates.

 

Social Media Links - allows the public to follow the Tom Green County Sheriff's Office on Facebook.
