Office of the Sheriff

Message from Your 2019 Sheriff of the Year

(awarded to Sheriff Reich by the Michigan Sheriffs' Association)

On behalf of my staff I would like to welcome you to the Eaton County Sheriff's Office website. The purpose of this site is to provide the residents of Eaton County information regarding the Sheriff's Office and it's role in keeping Eaton County safe. Our website has been designed to be informative and to provide you with tools to assist our agency in providing the best law enforcement services to our citizens.

Eaton County is located just west of the greater Lansing, Michigan area. The County seat is Charlotte which is located in the center of Eaton County 20 miles southwest of Lansing. The Sheriff's Office is responsible for general law enforcement activities throughout the County and provides contractual police services to Delta and Oneida Townships, as well as the Village of Vermontville. A satellite office is also located in Windsor Township and Olivet.
