The Monroe County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) provides law enforcement for Monroe County which is located in Western New York State. The sheriff's office's constitutional authority is to operate the county jail and provide a civil function. However, as with most counties in N.Y., the MCSO also provides a wide range of police services as well and provides physical and operational security to the courts (City, County, Family and State).

Organization
The MCSO is led by the Sheriff who is elected by the residents of Monroe County and serves a 4-year term. The Sheriff is considered the highest police official in the county. The second-in-command is the Undersheriff who is appointed by the Sheriff and is in charge in the Sheriff's absence. The third highest ranking member of the department is the Chief Deputy.
By New York State Constitution, the Sheriff is the Warden of the county jail. The Jail Bureau is the largest component of the Sheriff's Office, overseeing an inmate population of around 1,400 and operates both a Jail and a Correctional Facility.
The Sheriff's Office operates a large road patrol force which patrols the towns within Monroe County that do not have their own police patrols, although the MCSO has jurisdiction throughout the county. The Sheriff's Office is also responsible for primary police patrols at the Greater Rochester International Airport as well as the many parks throughout the county. Deputies assigned to the Marine Unit patrol the coastline of Lake Ontario as well as Irondequoit Bay. The Police Bureau also features a mounted unit, as well as a traffic enforcement unit. Specialized units consist of Bomb Squad, SWAT, Hostage Recovery, SCUBA, Technical Services (Crime Scene), and K9.
The other major unit of the Police Bureau is the Criminal Investigation Section which investigates all major crimes responded to by Sheriff's deputies as well as assisting other area law enforcement agencies.
The Court Security Bureau provides security at the Hall of Justice as well as at the State Appellate Court building.
In 2011, the Monroe County Sheriff's Office was named the 2011 Public Safety Uniform Award in the County Sheriff's/Police Department category by the North American Association of Uniform Manufacturers and Distributors (NAUMD).
