‼️ Public Service Announcement: Scam Alert ‼️

We've become aware of a scam that is going on in our community targeting families of individuals who are or were recently in our custody. Citizens reported receiving phone calls from someone falsely claiming to be an employee of the criminal justice system, to include members of the Sheriff’s Office, probation officers, county clerks, and the like, requesting electronic payment for bonds to be posted, or fees associated with ankle monitors and breath intoxilyzers.

The Sheriff’s Office does not and will never solicit money over the phone, electronically, or directly from citizens.

If anyone contacts you claiming to be a Sheriff’s Office employee and asks for personal information, financial details, or payment of any kind:

• Hang up immediately.
• Call the Brazoria County Sheriff’s Office non‑emergency line at 979‑864‑2200 to verify the legitimacy of the call.

Your vigilance helps protect our community from fraud. Please share this information to help prevent others from becoming victims.

Operation Washout – Texas Tide

The Brazoria County Sheriff's Office Special Enforcement Unit (SEU) recently participated in a multiagency initiative led by the U.S. Marshals Service Gulf Coast Violent Offenders and Fugitives Task Force – Galveston. The operation brought together federal, state, and local law enforcement in a sustained effort to apprehend violent fugitives and other high-risk offenders throughout counties within the Southern District of Texas.

We knew going in that each day would require our teams to be fluid and adapt as new information and targets developed. Throughout the operation, our SEU deputies were able to identify, pursue, and apprehend violent criminals while embodying the core values of our Sheriff’s Office.

SEU worked tirelessly, targeting high crime areas while continuously developing and identifying new targets throughout the operational period. We would like to highlight the efforts of our Fugitive Apprehension deputies as they worked around the clock and operated in every capacity necessary to get the job done.

From developing cases and conducting surveillance to successful apprehensions and pursuing wanted subjects on foot, our SEU deputies consistently demonstrated dedication, tenacity, and professionalism. Their efforts made a significant impact in locating and apprehending wanted violent offenders in Brazoria County and beyond.
