Doug Binnewies is a 20-year veteran of the sheriff’s department. During that time he has been consistently recognized by his peers and supervisors as having the qualities necessary to lead local law enforcement efforts with efficiency and integrity.

That recognition includes promotions through the ranks of the department from deputy, to patrol sergeant, detective sergeant, lieutenant and captain to his current position as undersheriff.

Doug is committed to making Mariposa one of the safest places in California to raise a family.

I believe that Doug’s experience, professional training and love of the community qualify him to assume command of the Mariposa County Sheriff’s Office.
