How to File a Misconduct Complaint at Macon County Sheriff’s Office (Macon County Detention Center)
Reporting staff misconduct at the Macon County Sheriff's Office or Macon County Detention Center? The fastest way to avoid delays is to fill out the Allegation of Misconduct form completely—exactly as written.
Macon County Sheriff's Office uses an
Fill out every section - even the parts that feel repetitive.
The form requires you to read and initial each section. Slow down here. Missing initials can make your complaint look incomplete, even if your written statement is thorough.
Before submitting, check the signature area carefully. The form has signature lines for you (the complainant), a witness, and the Sheriff, plus a space for the date the Sheriff received it. Sign where indicated. If you have a witness available, have them sign too - leaving that line blank can raise questions.
What to expect next: After the Sheriff receives your complaint, you should be notified - either in writing or verbally - that it was received.
Once everything is filled out, initialed, and signed, deliver the form to the Macon County Sheriff's Office at 1820 Lakeside Drive, Franklin, NC.
Legal note: Knowingly making a false written statement with intent to mislead a public servant may be a criminal offense under North Carolina law.
