The Windham County Sheriff's Department (WCSD) is a full-service rural county law enforcement agency that serves Windham County, Vermont. It provides contract service law enforcement to towns within Windham County, acting as an equivalent of a town police department. The Sheriff's department is also responsible for prisoner transports within Windham County and serving civil process (court paperwork such as subpoenas, eviction notices and other court paperwork).
On February 2, 2007, Keith Clark was sworn in as Sheriff at the Windham Superior Court in Newfane, VT. Clark was elected following a scandal with the previous elected sheriff, Sheila Prue, who resigned in disgrace following a guilty plea of a felony count of embezzlement as well as misdemeanor counts of neglect of duty and petit larceny.
