Det. Hope Hearn is the published Custodian of Records within the Sheriff's Administrative Division. The office says document requests may take up to three days, but it does not publish a fixed copy fee or a dedicated request form. Call first to confirm the current fee, delivery method, identification rule, and whether certification is available.
