Reporting
a Crime in Dodge County
What Do I Do
If I Believe a Crime Has Occurred In Dodge County?
If you believe a
crime has occurred in Dodge County, you need to contact the
police agency where the crime has allegedly been committed. Our
office cannot charge a person with a crime until we receive a
referral from a police agency. Because our office does not
initially investigate crimes, we rely on the area police
agencies to conduct the investigation process for us.
Once the police
agency has completed the investigation, they will refer the case
to our office, if they believe a crime has been committed. The
case will be logged in and assigned to one of our attorneys.
That attorney will review the case and determine if there is
enough evidence to charge that person with a crime.
If you are the
victim, you will be notified by our office when a charge is
filed, or if we decide not to file criminal charges.
