James Edward Vincent was sworn in as Edmonson County Sheriff today by Judge John M. McCarty at the Edmonson County Courthouse in the lower courtroom.

Vincent, who won the primary election in May on the republican ticket, ran unopposed in the November General Election. He was sworn in early as a result of an early retirement from previous Sheriff Shane Doyle, who officially retired today.

Deputies, special deputies, court security, and office staff are sworn in.

In addition, both paid and volunteer deputies, along with court security officers and office staff were also sworn in.

Vincent and his staff assumed their duties immediately.

The remaining county officials will be sworn in at the end of the year.
