Evidence & Property

The Division of Professional Responsibility is responsible for the safety and security of all evidence submitted to, and held by, the Henderson County Sheriff's Office. 

Our Evidence Unit takes in, catalogs, and stores thousands of items of evidence every year in anticipation of the court process. These items must be tracked as they pass in and out of the custody of the Division for testing and trial, and eventually must be disposed of as ordered by the courts in a manner statutorily defined. 

Because they are dealing with evidentiary items like firearms, currency, narcotics, and DNA, the Division must be prepared for audit on a moment's notice to ensure the integrity of our operations.
