Please note:  The Davidson County Sheriff's Office is unlike most Sheriff's Offices in the state of Tennessee, in that it is not a criminal law enforcement agency and has not been since the inception of Metropolitan Government in 1963. The DCSO’s law enforcement duties include managing all county jails, and processing and serving civil warrants.  If you are interested in a criminal law enforcement position (i.e. street patrols, investigation of criminal activity, etc.), you may wish to contact the Metro Nashville Police Department.
