Stronger Together

As our community continues to grow and progress, I stand by my oath and commitment to provide the constituents of Plaquemines Parish with the best law enforcement service in the state of Louisiana.

We will continue to evolve and adjust our tactics and methods that includes up-to-date tools and resources that will allow the Plaquemines Parish Sheriff's Office (PPSO) personnel to provide the best service possible to all our residents. PPSO has taken steps to enhance the overall law enforcement experience through additional training and mutual respect of the people we serve daily. I view every Plaquemines Parish resident as family and I constantly express this view with all PPSO employees. As a collective community, will we encounter hardships and bumps in the road? Of course, but together we will overcome any obstacle to keep Plaquemines Parish one of the safest communities in Louisiana.

I love Plaquemines Parish and as your Sheriff, I will always give all of you 100% effort and dedication. The safety of every person in Plaquemines Parish is my #1 priority and that will never change because we are stronger together!

- Sheriff Gerald A. Turlich, Jr.
