The Barbour County Sheriff’s Office is organized into divisions that each serve a specific public safety role, from answering emergency calls to running the county jail. Learn what each division does and how to reach the right people.
Patrol deputies are the front line of public safety in Barbour County. They answer calls for service, respond to emergencies and traffic crashes, enforce state law on county roads, and keep a visible presence in Clayton, Clio, Louisville, and the rural communities in between.
In an emergency, call 911.
When a case needs more than an initial report, investigators take it from there. They follow up on burglaries, thefts, fraud, assaults, and other felony offenses, gather evidence, interview witnesses, and work with the District Attorney’s Office to bring cases to court.
The Barbour County Jail houses individuals awaiting trial and serving sentences. Families can find inmate information, video visitation, commissary deposits, and mail guidelines on the County Jail page.
The Sheriff’s Office registers and monitors sex offenders who live, work, or attend school in Barbour County, as required by the Alabama Sex Offender Registration and Community Notification Act.
The Sheriff’s Office issues Alabama pistol permits to eligible Barbour County residents. Every application is subject to a background check.
Deputies serve civil papers issued by the courts, including summonses, subpoenas, writs, and protection orders, and provide security for the courthouse and courtrooms.
School resource officers work in Barbour County schools to keep students and staff safe, build positive relationships with young people, and respond to incidents on campus.
