LA PLATA, Md. – Officers with the Judicial Services Section, along with the Neighborhood Enforcement Team and Patrol, recently participated in the 2024 National Family Violence Warrant Sweep, an initiative aimed at raising awareness and addressing the ongoing crisis of domestic violence across our communities. During the sweep, officers attempted to serve 80 warrants, resulting in 16 arrests. They also recovered a firearm without a serial number, along with CDS.

The National Family Violence Warrant Sweep takes place every October during Domestic Violence Awareness Month. The Charles County Sheriff’s Office collaborates with local, state, and federal partners to support victims and hold offenders accountable for domestic violence.
