The Haakon County Sheriff's Office, located at 140 South Howard Avenue, Philip, South Dakota, operates under the leadership of Sheriff Dillon Armour. Sheriff Armour, who has recently accepted the position, is committed to serving the residents of Haakon County. The Sheriff's Office shares its location with the Philip Police Department (605-859-2850 Chief of Police William "Ben" Buls - bbuls@philipsd.us) on the third floor of the Haakon County Courthouse. The office is dedicated to maintaining public safety, enforcing the law, and providing essential services to the community.
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 own holding jail, the arrestees are not detained at the sheriff's administrative facility. Instead, they are promptly transferred to a nearby regional 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 nearby 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 regional detention center 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 detention center for inmate management.
