Criminal Division – Marion County Sheriff’s Office
317.327.1411
The Court Operations and Security Unit and its team of 82 law enforcement professionals are primarily responsible for the safety and security of the courts of Marion County. The Section handles the transport of inmates to and from all criminal courts and provides safety and security for the courts and their personnel during their day-to-day operation. Additionally, the Section transports subpoenaed inmates to civil hearings, serves warrants, makes outright arrests and remands defendants into custody as ordered by the presiding Judge.
The Warrants Section manages and executes all Marion County criminal warrants in a concerted effort to make Indianapolis and Marion County a safer place to live. The key responsibility of the Section involves tracking down fugitives who have failed to appear in court. It is also the Section’s mission to apprehend suspects who have warrants issued for their arrest in violent crimes – especially gun crimes – property crimes and drug charges.
The Support Services Section of the Law Enforcement Division has a two-fold mission. The Section tracks the more than 3,000 sex and violent offenders listed on the county’s Sex & Violent Offender Registry, and it oversees the growing and active Reserve Deputy Program.
