Virginia sheriff oversight

Essex County, Virginia

W. A. "Arnie" Holmes, Sheriff

Compare with similar counties · Virginia average

No civilian oversight body has recorded jurisdiction over the Essex Sheriff's Office. Virginia's Law Enforcement Civilian Oversight Body statute, Va. Code § 9.1-601, defines "law-enforcement officer" to exclude sheriffs and deputy sheriffs, so this office falls outside the one civilian oversight mechanism Virginia law provides.

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