Media

Sheriff Stacy Williams feels that keeping citizens informed about what is happening in the county is very important. For those who have social media, it is easy to keep up with us on our different platforms. The Sheriff wanted a place where those with or without social media could
be kept apprised of what was going on. Our Social Media Manager is our Public Relations and Press Information Officer, Sgt. Heather Mecillas. Sgt. Mecillas is responsible for media releases and all social media at the Sheriff’s Office. If you have any media inquiries, please contact her.
