Welcome to the Vermillion County Sheriff’s Office Official Facebook page. We are happy to give you an insider’s view of our operation. If you are not familiar with the many facets of our duties and services I think you will have a better understanding of the scope of our responsibilities after browsing this site.
You may also enjoy getting to know our employees and their areas of expertise. We could not be more proud of the level of professionalism that they bring to public safety in Vermillion County. Every job here is demanding and we believe each person has equal value to the way the Sheriff’s Office is run.
We want this site to be interactive and useful to you. If you have a question about any issue that concerns our office, please feel free to contact us. Likewise, if you have an idea that could improve our website or if you would like us to provide a new service to the community we encourage you to let us know about it. Our product is service. We are constantly looking for ways to improve, and we value your input.
I have strived throughout my career as a police officer to form a bond with the community I serve. This website is only a small illustration of that goal. If you have a clear view as to what we are trying to accomplish, if you get to know us on a more personal level, if we can “demystify” what goes on inside our (your) building, then I am convinced you will find a greater comfort level when dealing with the Vermillion County Sheriff’s Office.
Thank you for visiting and most of all, thanks for your continued support!
Your Sheriff, Robert J. Spence
