The Dearborn County Law
Enforcement Center was built between 1990 and 1991. The sheriff when the
building was built was Sheriff Russell Cunningham who was completing his
second four-year term when the facility was built. The new facility was
built on the west end of High Street, replacing the old jail that was
located just next to the courthouse.
The Dearborn County Law
Enforcement Center is a 200+ bed facility that also accommodates the
sheriff's department. The Dearborn County Law Enforcement Center has
24-hour-a-day surveillance cameras that keep a constant eye on both the
inside and outside of the facility. In addition to the above listed
offices, there is also an attached sally port where inmates are unloaded
from vehicles. The sally port is completely secure and keeps inmates
from fleeing an officer and trying to escape while being escorted from
the police car to the jail. The Dearborn County Law Enforcement Center
is equipped with computers and other modern-day equipment in order to
keep the facility an up-to-date law enforcement building.
