On August 4, 2024, the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office discontinued providing the citizens of Southern Maryland and media with its weekly “Notable Arrests/DUIs/Summonses/Warrants” list.
We at SMNEWSNET.COM find this decision deeply disappointing. In an era when transparency should be the cornerstone of all law enforcement agencies, taking steps backward in sharing public information undermines trust. Citizens deserve to know what is happening in their communities, and keeping this kind of information readily accessible is crucial to fostering accountability. Unfortunately, the Sheriff’s Office never addressed this decision before or after implementing it, leaving the community without answers.
Starting today, SMNEWSNET.COM will step up to fill this gap. We believe it’s our responsibility to ensure you stay informed. That’s why we’re introducing a comprehensive weekly list of all arrests and criminal summonses issued in St. Mary’s County, including those made by both the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office and the Maryland State Police. Our commitment to transparency remains steadfast, and we will continue to provide the information that matters most to our readers. We will also continue to publish the Maryland State Police Leonardtown Barrack Weekly Press Release that they provide to the media and public.
