Welcome to the Tazewell County Sheriff’s Office Website. The Sheriff is the Chief Law Officer of the County and the sole Law Enforcement Official elected by the people. Many believe that the Office of the Sheriff is the main keeper of accountability between Law Enforcement and the Public. In the spirit of accountability and responsiveness, we are pleased to provide this publicly accessible site on the World Wide Web. We want you to take a look at who we are and our role in Serving and Protect.

He was very pleased with the good behavior of the boys and girls of Tazewell County this year.Apparently, Santa’s belt was a little tighter than normal last year when he returned to the workshop. Buddy asked for the children to only set out two cookies this Christmas, and maybe just a couple carrots for the reindeer.Buddy said the students at the North Pole Elf-ementary are out of school for the holiday, just like all of you. Though you’re taking a break from learning the Elf-abet, he wants you to remember to practice good behavior and to be kind to others.Tazewell County 911 - TC3 will receive a message just before Santa’s arrival.
