The Buffalo County Sheriff’s Office serves as the primary law enforcement agency for Buffalo County, ensuring public safety and upholding the law across the county’s rural communities. The office is responsible for patrolling unincorporated areas, responding to emergencies, conducting criminal investigations, executing court orders, and overseeing civil processes. Under the leadership of Sheriff Wayne Willman, the department works closely with local, state, and federal agencies to provide effective law enforcement services. While Buffalo County does not maintain an on-site jail, it contracts with the Brule County Jail, ensuring efficient and secure detention services. Committed to community engagement, crime prevention, and professional service, the Buffalo County Sheriff’s Office plays a vital role in protecting residents and maintaining peace within the county.
When an individual is arrested within the county, the sheriff's office handles the initial booking process, which includes documenting personal information, recording the details of the arrest, and taking fingerprints and photographs. Since the county lacks its holding jail, the arrestees are not detained at the sheriff's administrative facility. Instead, they are promptly transferred to a nearby detention center. This regional facility is equipped to house inmates and manage their needs from the time of their arrest until their case is adjudicated.
The transfer to the regional detention center ensures that all individuals are securely detained in a facility designed to handle various security and logistical needs. This center provides housing, meals, medical care, and access to legal resources for the detainees. It also facilitates visitation, communication with family and legal representatives, and participation in programs that may aid in their rehabilitation or legal defense.
Overall, the sheriff's office focuses on the enforcement and administrative aspects of its role, collaborating with the nearby jail to ensure that arrested individuals are appropriately processed and securely held until their legal proceedings are concluded. This arrangement allows the sheriff's office to concentrate on maintaining law and order within the county while leveraging the resources and infrastructure of the regional detention facility for inmate management.
