Edgefield County Sheriff's Office
Edgefield, South Carolina
The Edgefield County Sheriff's Office Investigations Division consists of three Criminal Investigators, a Forensic Investigator,
Narcotics Investigators and a Chief Investigator who oversees the division.
It is not uncommon for investigators to be actively
working 10 criminal cases at once. Investigators handle referrals from the Uniform Road Patrol when incidents will involve more precise
investigation techniques.
Common investigations include but are not limited to:
Burglaries
Thefts
Robberies
Forgeries
Murders
Sex Crimes
Computer Crimes
Vandalisms
With the recent addition of a Forensic Investigator, the Edgefield County Sheriff's Office is able to process certain types of evidence,
at the local level, enabling a faster turn-around time. The Forensic Investigator is equipped with a wide array of technological tools
to gather and process evidence at crime scenes.
The Edgefield County Narcotic Investigators are the behind-the-scenes investigators. Narcotic Investigators have no set hours and
commonly are working while most are sleeping, enjoying a meal, or taking the family on a weekend outing. The Edgefield County Sheriff's
Office is constantly fighting against drug activity in Edgefield County and encourage citizens to call 637-5337 or 278-1625 when they
observe suspected drug activity.
