The Patrol Division of the Lafayette County Sheriff’s Office consists of the Chief Deputy, 3 Lieutenants , 1 Sergeant, 3 Detectives, and 9 Deputies. The main goal of the Patrol Division is to answer calls for emergency and non-emergency service from the citizens. Each member of the Patrol Division has a vehicle assigned to them. Patrol Deputies are “on duty” as soon as they leave their residences and are available for service. In cases of emergencies, deputies can respond from their homes, as deputies live in all parts of the County.

When not responding to calls, deputies patrol approximately 632 square miles of county roads. As well, deputies assist local law enforcement agencies and the Missouri State Highway Patrol. Deputies in the Patrol Division investigate reports of crimes, enforce traffic laws, serve arrest warrants, pick up prisoners in other jurisdictions, provide traffic control for fire and emergency medical services, and serve paper process for the courts.
