🚨 Need Security or an Escort for Your Business or Equipment? 🚨 The Gibson County Sheriff’s Office offers off-duty law enforcement services for businesses, industries, and heavy equipment transport across Indiana! ✅ Professional off-duty deputies ✅ Police escorts for oversized loads ✅ No job too small or too large ✅ Mileage fees help fund vehicle upkeep—no burden to taxpayers! Thanks to an ordinance (ordinance 2024-01) passed with the support of the Gibson County Council, mileage fees from contracted services go into a dedicated fund that covers fuel, repairs, and even new vehicles for the Sheriff’s Office fleet. 💼 Contractors pay deputies directly—no county funds used
Our new building houses the Sheriff’s Office, 911 Dispatch Center, as well as the County Jail. We moved into the new facility at 119 E Brumfield Av in Princeton the middle of May 2025. The entrance is located at the corner of Brumfield Av and Prince St.
Corrections Officer Fernando Bello
At 6 a.m. on May 28th, 2023, Officer Bello was working the jail board in our dispatch center when a 911 call came in from a Hispanic female. At the time neither of the Communications Officers could understand or speak Spanish. Officer Bello, who is a native of Brazil, speaks not only English but Portuguese and some Spanish. With this knowledge, he was able to translate on the fly for the dispatcher to get medical help to the caller.
“I am extremely proud of Officer Bello for stepping out of his comfort zone and getting help to one of our citizens. ” – Sheriff Vanoven
