Sheriff’s Office receives 17th consecutive, perfect financial audit

Monroe County Sheriff Rick Ramsay is pleased to announce the Sheriff’s Office has received its 17th consecutive, perfect audit.

A perfect audit means financial auditors did not find any irregularities, questionable spending or anything out of the norm for an accredited law enforcement agency. The audit is performed every year by independent auditors with no ties to the Sheriff’s Office to ensure public trust between the agency and taxpayers.

“I am very pleased to report the Sheriff’s Office has once again received a perfect audit,” said Sheriff Rick Ramsay. “Our Sheriff’s Office Finance Division continues its excellent service to the taxpayers of this county by accounting for every single penny spent by this agency. I am committed to transparency with the public and that includes financial transparency as well.”

The Sheriff’s Office is Triple Crown Award winner regarding its accreditation status. The Triple Crown Award is given to Sheriff’s Offices which achieve simultaneous accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of the American Correctional Association, The Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement and the National Commission on Correctional Health Care. Financial excellence is required in keeping such accreditation status.
