Calvert, Charles, Prince George’s Conduct Child Support Warrant Sweep #PGSO

Upper Marlboro, MD…The Prince George’s County Office of the Sheriff reported that it’s Child Support Enforcement Division (CSED) joined Calvert and Charles County, and Maryland State Police in an overnight child support warrant sweep on November 7th. The operation resulted in the arrest of 25 individuals whose unpaid child support arrearages totaled $142,375. One individual arrested had child support arrears in Prince George’s County of over $27,000.

Twenty-five law enforcement officers comprised three teams that began the operation with a total of 59 writs and 25 warrants they intended to serve which came from each of the participating jurisdictions or agencies.

Captain Joyce Bowers, Commander of Child Support Enforcement in the Prince George’s County Sheriff’s Office said the financial resources and the manpower resources always support our achieving good results. Bowers went on to say that “child support payments assure that a custodial parent has the necessary resources to care for a child’s basic needs - costs that might otherwise be borne by county taxpayers”.

The Child Support Enforcement sweep is made possible by a state funded grant and has been conducted every year for twenty years.
