Bias-Based Profiling
The Citrus County Sheriff’s Office is committed to the equal protection
of its citizens.
A fundamental right guaranteed by the Constitution to all who live in
this nation is equal protection under the law. Along with this
right to equal protection is the fundamental right to be free from
unreasonable searches and seizures by government agents. Citizens
are free to walk and drive our streets, highways, and other public
places without law enforcement interference so long as they obey the
law. They also are entitled to be free from crime and free to
drive and walk our public ways safe from the actions of reckless and
careless drivers.
This law enforcement agency is charged with protecting these rights
for all, regardless of race, color, ethnicity, sex, sexual orientation,
physical handicap, religion or other belief system.
