Answer 1

Not sure but you could try contacting a lawyer for a free counsel. Or if it is a small town try talking to the local judge, mayor, or contact your county representative.

In Law Enforcement, there is a chain of command. I suggest for filing a complaint, you contact that deputy's supervisor (e.g. his/her Sergeant) if you feel that the Sergeant didn't handle it properly, then you're next step is the the Lieutenant...then the Chief Deputy and then the Sheriff. If you chose to go over the Sheriff's office, if you go to the Commissioners, they may refer you to the Sheriff's Office so proper command is followed. Alot of times, your complaint should handled without having to go past the Deputy's Sergeant. Good luck

I stay in WI and would say that maximum if no longer all sheriff's workplaces have SWAT and different specific assignments which includes boat patrol, dive team and so forth. maximum Sheriff workplaces require you to do time interior the detention center as a correctional officer formerly you pass on the line. some city police departments do have swat, yet in basic terms the medium to massive ones.

Answer 5

for complaints on any law enforcement officer, you go to the department and speak with a supervisor.... however in cases you feel that doing so might put you in some sort of jeopardy, mailing a letter to the department, making a copy for documentation purposes, and sending it directly is good also

Answer 6

if you feel you are being threatened go to the states attorney generals office and make a complaint, if there have been other complaints they will investigate, if not go to the F.B.I. and file a civil rigthts complaint,very few lawyers will help you unless you have over stuffed wallet, how ever the A,C,L,U, may help if it is some thing they can get some head lines on,and gov, pay,
good luck

Answer 7

I know that the police deptament have internal affairs but I don't know about the sheriffs department

Answer 8

no, you need to talk to the sheriff, he is the head of the law enforcement for your county.

If it is something criminal, you can go to the county or state DA office.

But no there is no board over the sheriff department.

Answer 9

Speak to the county attorney's office of the county commissioners. If that fail the state police may help.

Answer 10

If the charge is serious enough you can talk to the state police, the state attorney general, or if you civil rights have been vilolated, there is alway the FBI.
