Investigations

The Olmsted County Sheriff’s Office Investigations Division is responsible for conducting follow-up investigation referred from the Patrol Division, sexual assault investigations, Predatory Offender registration compliance, and DWI vehicle forfeitures. The Investigations Division also conducts follow up investigations that are referred from Olmsted County Community Services. Examples would include Financial Exploitation of a Vulnerable Adult, child sexual assault referrals, and maltreatment referrals. The Investigations Division of the Olmsted County Sheriff’s Office also works closely with investigators from the SE MN Violent Crimes Enforcement Team.

The Investigations Division is comprised of one Sergeant, four general investigation detectives, one County Attorney detective, two investigators, one Intelligence Analyst, one Administrative Assistant, one narcotics detective. In addition, we have three narcotics investigators which are assigned to the Southeast Minnesota Violent Crime Enforcement Team. Each general investigator specializes in unique crime investigations such as vulnerable adult cases, heavy equipment theft, arson investigations, welfare fraud, and internet crimes with a focus on protecting children. The Investigations Division receives support from the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force where one general investigator is assigned on a part-time basis.
