The Wayne County Sheriff’s Office is committed to the safety and security of its jail facilities for all inmates, staff, contractors and volunteers. Toward this end, the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office has developed a zero-tolerance policy for all forms of sexual abuse and harassment.

Under the PREA act, we are committed to preventing, detecting and responding to all allegations of abuse whether such allegations are made regarding inmate on inmate or staff, contractors and volunteers on inmate. All reports of sexual abuse will be promptly and fully investigated by responding jail staff.
