This is a partial listing of activity investigated by the Ste. Genevieve County Sheriff’s Department. Except for arrests this report does not reflect actions initiated by our personnel rather calls for service only. Also, a criminal charge is merely an allegation and the defendant is, of course, presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty in a court of law. Some cases are currently under investigation; any citizen with additional information is encouraged to call the Sheriff’s Department with any information you may have. Again, each and every suspect is considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. We appreciate all support received from our public. Any questions about this press release should be addressed to Sheriff Gary J. Stolzer or Major Howard W. Dohack, Chief Deputy (573) 883-5820.
