Calloway Sheriffs Department summary of 2025

The Calloway County Sheriffs office released a summary of their activities and investments that occurred in 2025.

Last year the Sheriff’s Office responded to 11,321 calls for service. They opened 405 criminal cases and worked 408 traffic collisions. 

A total of 19 sexual assault cases were opened, with between 20 and 30 sexual assault victims per month. They noted that although the number of cases appear low in comparison to the number of victims, the cases often involved multiple victims per investigation. 

Calloway deputies reported that 158 drug cases were opened during the year, 29 of which involved firearms. The Sheriff’s Office took in $533,252 worth of illegal drugs, either seized during arrests or purchased through undercover operations conducted by sheriff’s personnel. 

In 2025, the Calloway County Sheriff’s Office purchased five patrol vehicles and leased one additional vehicle. They also purchased three drones, and three deputies successfully obtained their FAA Remote Pilot licenses to operate the drones.

The Sheriff’s Office began the process of upgrading ballistic vests from Level II to Level III protection. In addition, rifle-rated armor plates were purchased for the front panels of all road deputies’ vests.

Due to the increased volume of seized property and evidence, the Sheriff’s Office was required to expand the evidence room to accommodate operational needs and maintain compliance with evidence storage standards.

The Calloway County Sheriff’s Office received a $25,000 highway safety grant, utilized to pay overtime for deputies conducting targeted traffic enforcement throughout Calloway County, with the goal of reducing crashes and improving roadway safety.
