Investigation regarding sheriff’s office continues

The Link continues to follow the investigation into alleged misconduct by former employees of the Chesterfield County Sheriff’s Office.

Sheriff James “JD” Dixon requested the State Law Enforcement Division to conduct the investigation and said he could not comment on it once SLED took over.

SLED Public Information Officer Tommy Crosby confirmed the agency has “an open investigation of a former deputy of the CCSO.”

Both Dixon and SLED confirmed it is routine procedure for SLED to be called in to make certain there is no conflict of interest for the CCSO.

More information will be posted to Breaking News as details become available.
