SHERIFF Steve E. Whisenant As Sheriff, I have two guiding principles for the Burke County Sheriff's Office; Professionalism and Integrity. My priorities, in our current economic environment, are to enhance our utilization of technology and to encourage proactivity as we strive to find the most efficient and effective ways to serve the citizens of Burke County. Fortunately, since my appointment as Sheriff June 1, 2011, I have discovered a dedicated group of employees whom I am looking forward to working alongside as Burke County Sheriff.
