Dear Colin,
The Sheriff's Office does not maintain records in the format you requested. I have asked, but we cannot extract call times based on a specific category of call.
Domestic disturbance is an extremely broad concept which encompasses innumerable different situations. Depending upon the individual circumstances, many domestic disturbance-type situations are classified differently and placed in a different category and/or priority level. So we just don't keep the type of information you are asking for.
However, the following data is available:
Jul-20
Jul-19
Call Count
Median Response
Call Count
Median Response
Priority 0-1
57
05:53
Priority 0-1
66
05:57
Priority 2
129
06:32
Priority 2
130
06:43
Priority 3-9
436
08:09
Priority 3-9
468
08:28
0-1 is the most urgent.
2 is emergent, but slightly less of a priority.
3-9 are generally handled when officers become available.
Note that this level is automatically assigned. There are a huge number factors that can determine which priority level a specific call is placed in. That level can be changed by a call taker depending upon the individual circumstances of each call.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Respectfully,
