The Plymouth County Sheriff's Department, led by Sheriff Joseph D. McDonald, Jr., since 2005, is one of the oldest law enforcement agencies in Massachusetts. The department traces its origins to the arrival of the Mayflower in 1620, when Myles Standish assumed responsibility for maintaining civil law and order as Plymouth Colony's military leader. The colony's first formal law enforcement agency, the Office of Constable, was created in 1633 with the charge of maintaining peace and holding people charged with crimes. The Office of High Sheriff was established in 1692, and became an elective office in 1855. Sheriffs are elected to six-year terms.

The three primary responsibilities of the sheriff are to operate the Plymouth County Correctional Facility; assist in public safety throughout the county; and oversee delivery of legal documents needed to support the operation of the courts.

The Plymouth County Correctional Facility houses approximately 1,650 inmates, making it the largest correctional facility under one roof in New England, and is accredited by the American Correctional Association. The jail holds a diverse inmate population, including county, state and federal prisoners. Some have been sentenced; others are awaiting trial. PCCF also houses the state's only secure juvenile facility. Opened in 1994, the PCCF's design and operation reflects contemporary corrections management practices.

The department also supports public safety in the county through its Field Services Division and Bureau of Criminal Investigation. Field Services supports county law enforcement agencies through its K-9, Warrant Apprehension, Mounted, Motor Cycle, and Honor Guard units. The Communications Unit coordinates all fire mutual aid in the county, serves as the communications link between paramedics and hospitals, and provides communications services at the scene of major events. The Bureau of Criminal Investigation assists local police in collecting and analyzing evidence from crime scenes, and in photographing major traffic accident scenes. All public safety support services are provided at the request of local police and fire departments.
