Nebraska sheriff oversight

Colfax County, Nebraska

Shawn Messerlie, Sheriff

Compare with similar counties · Nebraska average

Colfax County has no independent civilian oversight body for its Sheriff's Office. The Colfax County Sheriff is an elected county officer; Nebraska law sets election and residency eligibility for the office at Neb. Rev. Stat. § 23-1701. No statewide statute requires county-level civilian oversight of sheriffs in Nebraska, and no Nebraska county currently has one.

Staffing and budget data for Colfax County will appear in a future update.
