The Sheriff has full-time deputies assigned to the following multi-agency local and federal law-enforcement task forces operating in Mahoning County:
FBI Fugitive and Violent Crimes Task Force
DEA Task Force
Mahoning Valley Law Enforcement Task Force
Task Force members operate throughout Mahoning County and have made arrests in every township, city, and village in the county. Participation in Task Force operations has returned substantial assets to Task Force agencies. Forfeited cash and vehicles confiscated by the Courts after successful prosecutions, help fund and support continued operations. This spectrum of law enforcement agencies is successfully dealing with a very mobile criminal, drug, and gang problem countywide.
The full-time participation and commitment by agents from the FBI and DEA, along with full-time participation of officers from the Austintown, Beaver, Boardman, Mahoning County Sheriff’s Office, Poland Village, and Youngstown Police Departments, provide the continuity and support for the part-time participants in the Task Force efforts.
Part-time Task Force participants and resources available for special operations, tactics, and crisis response, include the cities of Campbell, Canfield, Girard, Hubbard, Struthers, and Youngstown. Township participation includes Austintown, Boardman and Liberty, as well as Youngstown State University Police, the U.S. Marshals Service, and Ohio’s Adult Parole Authority.
