Public Information Officer

Detective
Janee Lambert

The Public Information Unit deals with local and national news media outlets as well as social media. Social media has become a huge asset to the agency allowing the Sheriff’s Office to reach the public quickly without going through news media outlets and takes on a more personal approach. The Sheriff’s Office utilizes Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and the Sheriff’s Office web page (butlersheriff.org) to disseminate important information.  Wanted persons, road closures, videos of important events, snow advisories, fatal crashes, homicides, major drug busts, and Sheriff’s Office accomplishments are just a few of the incidents deemed important for public disclosure. As the PIO, Detective Lambert is responsible for keeping the public and news media informed of these types of events. The Butler County Sheriff’s Office releases many public service announcements via video format throughout the year.
