Sean O’Brien to announce candidacy for St. Lawrence County sheriff

News release

Yesterday, Sheriff Brooks Bigwarfe made his announcement to not seek re-election for the office of Sheriff in 2023.

Since 2004 I have had the opportunity to serve our County under the administrations of Sheriff Gary Jarvis, Sheriff Kevin Wells and Sheriff Brooks Bigwarfe starting as a Deputy Sheriff, a Drug Task Force member, and Detective handling major crimes.

In January of 2020, I was presented an opportunity to do great things for the Sheriff’s Office while representing the next generation of Law Enforcement, when I became your Undersheriff of St. Lawrence County.

It is with great pleasure that I will officially announce my candidacy for St. Lawrence County Sheriff on Monday December 26th, 2022 at 3:00PM at the St. Lawrence County Courthouse, Canton New York.

Respectfully,
Sean P. O’Brien
