The Butts County Sheriff's Office has several distinctly divisions. These divisions specialize to the various areas necessary to run a robust and capable Law Enforcement Department. Our divisions work hand-in-hand with each other and other state, local, and federal agencies to accomplish the mission of Protect & Serve.

In answering calls for service, the Uniform Patrol Deputy's primary duty is to conduct preliminary investigations, maintain order within the community through the enforcement of state and local laws and to conduct preventive patrols while developing positive community relations. The division consists of four shifts of fourteen sworn Deputies assigned to each shift. Four Sergeants each shift with the four shifts being collectively supervised by the Uniform Patrol Lieutenant.

Their mission is to thoroughly investigate a wide variety of criminal cases that occur within the county. These investigations consist of interviewing witnesses, developing suspects, analyzing information for reliability and accuracy and submitting through case files for court.
