Our website features a description of our different Divisions and Units. Through these descriptions you will see that the prosecution of crimes takes many forms. In addition to these forms of prosecution, we partner with our citizens, other law enforcement agencies and community leaders to educate and conduct crime intervention and prevention initiatives. Our goal is to make Clayton County even more safe and to ensure that our justice system upholds the highest standards of fairness.
