The Deputies assigned to Criminal Warrants are responsible
for hunting and tracking down the individuals who area wanted on
criminal charges that mostly originate from criminal acts
that occurred in Clayton County. We do serve warrants from
other counties (at their request) if the address or location
of the wanted person is located in Clayton County.
Deputies assigned to Criminal Warrants will also respond to
assist the other Police Departments in Clayton County on high priority (armed
robbery, shooting, etc) calls within the county.
The Criminal Warrants Section is currently working on a back
log of over 16,000 warrants in addition to an average of
over 350 new warrants that are received weekly.
To
be more efficient and to have more accountability, the
county has been broken down into eight (8) distinct zones
and each Deputy has a zone for which they are responsible.
Our goal as an agency is to be able to assign two (2)
Deputies to each zone per shift. At current staffing levels
we are only at about 30% of our goal. |
