    logo_ycsoCottonwood AZ (March 25, 2016) – Warrants are the result of work within the judicial system issued with the intent of holding persons accountable for their actions who otherwise have failed court appearances and/or mandates.  In many instances, much time and effort by law enforcement, the County Attorney, and court officials are invested in these cases which cannot be adjudicated because the subject has failed to appear. As a result, YCSO will occasionally partner with area police agencies and conduct a warrant sweep to capture such persons.

    On March 23, 2016, a warrant sweep operation in the Verde Valley with several law enforcement teams was active throughout the day. The following agencies were involved:

    Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office – including our Volunteers in Protection (VIP) and Detention Services staff, Cottonwood Police Department, Clarkdale Police Department, Camp Verde Marshal’s Office, Partners Against Narcotics Trafficking (PANT), DPS/GITTEM, United States Marshal’s Service and U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI).

    A total of 65 warrants were targeted – 55 misdemeanor and 10 felony cases. The effort resulted in 12 misdemeanor arrests and 3 felony arrests. In one case, the warrant subject was not home but his wife took the information. After notifying her husband, he went to court the following day, set up a payment plan for the fine and the warrant was quashed. The remaining warrant subjects were booked at the Camp Verde Detention Center.

    The efficiency of the operation was enhanced by the combined efforts of the detention services staff and patrol volunteers (VIPs) who assisted by transporting arrestees to the jail. This allowed arrest teams to remain in the field after each arrest and move on to the next designated warrant location.

    Those warrant subjects we missed are encouraged to contact the concerned court and seek resolution to your case. The alternative may be an untimely arrest during a law enforcement contact. Warrant status may be checked anytime using this link — .

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
