Mission Statement

The first priority of the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office is the welfare and protection of the citizens of Montgomery County. We work hard at

putting our citizens and communities first. The mission of the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office is to provide the best possible law enforcement

protection and service for Montgomery County.

Montgomery County Sheriff's Office is proud to introduce to the community our new Operation Identification / Business & Church Watch Program.  This program enables citizens of our county to access our secure county database and create a login and a password where we will house the serial numbers of your most valuable possessions.  This program is free to the citizens of Montgomery.  Under this program, whatever you enter into your database is confidential to you or your business and/or church.  The Sheriff's Office will not check your login to see what you have registered or any of the information that you have entered or recorded in the database.  This program's main purpose is to assist our citizens in the event if they are victimized by crime and/or need immediate access to their serial numbers and to the property that they have listed.  Hopefully this program will allow us to identify stolen property fast by being able to put serial numbers onto our national databases that are searched by law enforcement in the event they come across suspicious property.  This program hopefully will allow us to make arrest and assist us in prosecuting those people that purchase or possess stolen property.
