Because the OCSO service area covers more than 1,000 square miles and is dedicated to supporting law enforcement missions, it has many partnerships both in and out of the agency. Throughout the county, “We probably touch just about every single entity within the Sheriff’s Office, road patrol, the SWAT teams, Marine unit, undercover units, K-9, CID, SID, and then there are entities that you might not think of like the environmental agency and code enforcement,” reflects Cpl. Scott Sampsel, who has been in the unit for more than two decades.
