Meet Nicole Morrisey O’Donnell
Sheriff Nicole Morrisey O’Donnell has been dedicated to public safety service since she began her career with the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office in 1996. Throughout her more than 25 years of service, her desire to learn every aspect of public safety has propelled her through the ranks of deputy, lieutenant, captain, chief deputy, and undersheriff. In addition, she is one of the few Sheriff's Office members who hold dual certification in police and corrections. As Multnomah County’s 41st Sheriff, Nicole is the first woman to hold this highest rank.

Local law enforcement, your city, county, and state teams, including the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO), do not enforce federal immigration laws or work with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Oregon law prevents local agencies from cooperating with ICE detainers. Oregon sheriff’s offices do not keep people in jail solely based on their immigration status. Like many other local law enforcement agencies in Oregon, MCSO’s primary goal is to keep our community safe and build trust with everyone who lives in Multnomah County.
