Bucks Writs - Winter 2018 - 9

Sheriff Warrell is particularly
energized about implementing a
bold new plan to use the County
Sheriffs as "mobile" agents
capable of retrieving unneeded
prescription drugs where
homeowners no longer need them.
He pointed out that Constables are responsible for prisoner
transfers to and from Magisterial District Judge Courts, and
either County Detectives or a private contractor is charged
with bringing in out of state prisoners.
The Sheriff's Office also provides security for the Justice
Center throughout the workday. Sheriffs also act as process
servers for civil complaints; warrants of arrest; and writs of
execution. They also are involved in real estate foreclosures
and tax liens. It is the Sheriff's Office that issues concealed
carry permits to gun owners, after making sure that those
seeking such permits are legally eligible to do so.

Sheriff Warrell's most immediate concern is to address the
manpower shortage in the office. Currently, there are 43
uniformed sheriffs, in an office that according to population
statistics, should have 75 officers. He has already applied to
the Commissioners for four additional hires.

He is excited about bringing in Perry Ferrara as his new
Chief Deputy, as he is someone who brings a long history
of experience both as a police officer with Bensalem
Township as well as prior experience in the Sheriff's Office.
One of the most frustrating aspects of the job so far is
dealing with the constant refrain of "but that's always the
way we've done it around here before."

He is particularly energized about implementing a bold
new plan to use the County Sheriffs as "mobile" agents
capable of retrieving unneeded prescription drugs where
homeowners no longer need them. Rather than rely solely
on receptacles located in police stations, the County
Courthouse, and a few other County facilities, he envisions
a program whereby sheriffs could stop at a resident's home
and after providing proper receipt and verification attesting
to the prescription pick-up, take the unneeded drugs for
proper disposal rather than have the narcotics fall into
the wrong hands. He is looking forward to working with
District Attorney Matt Weintraub in this regard. 
