The role of the Deputy Sheriff is often two fold. The Sheriff's office is usually responsible for enforcing the laws within the county in which they work. The second and often more popular aspect of the Sheriff's offices is to have as their primary responsibility the jail and prison transport. This is often the case in the Northern states. Some sheriff offices see this as two separate functions, corrections and policing, and do not require their deputies to work in the jail.
In many cases the sheriff is often the most powerful law-enforcement officer within a county. Normally the sheriff is elected by the people of that county. All law-enforcement officers working for the Sheriff's Office are called deputy sheriffs or sheriff's deputies because they are deputized by the sheriff to perform the same duties that he performs. In Broward County Florida the Sheriff also oversees the county fire departments and fire rescue personnel.
