Hello, I’m Sheriff David Graves. Pictured with me is Undersheriff Kurt Picknell (right).  The constitutional office of the Sheriff requires many duties and responsibilities.

Performing the complex and varied duties on a daily basis requires dedicated employees coupled with consistent, high quality training.  The Sheriff's Office does not close after normal business hours.  We receive and dispatch emergency calls, patrol and investigate suspicious activity, and keep secure a daily inmate population currently over 300.  All of these duties occur 24 hours per day 7 days a week requiring the dedication found within this website.

The natural resources available in Walworth County make it a desired area to live.  Many tourists or seasonal guests ultimately become full-time residents of the county.  This development increases the demand for many services including law enforcement.  We embrace the challenge to maintain the quality of life that we enjoy.  Law enforcement and public safety is directly related to this desired area in my constitutional duty.

Feel free to call our department or email us.
