This division of the Sheriff’s Department operates 24 hours a day, 7
days a week. The Records
personnel at the Monroe Detention Center not only support the Detention
Facility, but also Patrol, Transportation/Court Holding, Detectives,
Sheriff’s Work Inmate Program, Civil, Boats, and Coroner Sections.
Since this division is a 24 hour operation, we also support
surrounding local law enforcement agencies.
The Records Clerk's workload is immense and very diversified.
Not only is the section the primary record keeper for the
Department, Records is also responsible for a wide range of other duties
including: booking all inmates that come into the jail,
registering and processing visitors, collecting and recording incoming inmate monies,
transcribing, processing, and distributing crime reports and citations,
transcribing, processing, and distributing local, state, and federal statistics and
mandates, entering and processing warrants and restraining orders,
receiving and processing bails, bail surrenders, and warrant surrenders,
registering and processing sex, drug, and arson registrants, processing
fingerprint cards, in‑custody inmate court services, background
checks, and a multitude of other functions.
All incoming calls for the Monroe Detention Facility are received by this
division, including the administrative telephone lines after business
hours, weekends and holidays. The
Records staff is the primary reception center and handles walk-in
business for the Sheriff’s Department at the Monroe Detention Center.
Often
the first staff an individual comes into contact with at the Department,
the Records Division takes pride in the professional, friendly and expedient
services they provide.
The Records Division works with the local law enforcement agencies and
other outside agencies including Parole, Probation, District Attorney,
including Child Abduction Unit, Family Support and Welfare Fraud Units,
and YONET, Public Defender, and Courts.
Agreements have been made with the courts in order to expedite
the processing of domestic violence restraining orders in an attempt to
aid victims and police officers in discouraging further acts of
violence.
