Information Released Through Local Media
The Grand Traverse Sheriff's Office responds to emergency situations on a daily basis resulting in the handling of thousands of complaints annually. Monday through Friday, the Sheriff's Office meets with the local media including but not limited to TV 9&10, TV 7&4, WTCM, and the Traverse City Record Eagle at the Sheriff's Office. During these meetings, the Sheriff's Office shares information with the media representatives about incidents that have occurred and that may be of interest to the public. This is also a time for members of the media to ask questions about topics that they are reporting on. We also talk with representatives of other news outlets regularly during the week and outside of our regularly scheduled news briefings.
