Lamb County Sheriff and Local Police Registration
The Lamb County Sheriff's Office in Littlefield is the registration authority for sex offenders living outside any incorporated city in the county. Littlefield is the main community and serves as the judicial and administrative center for Lamb County. The sheriff's office is located at the Lamb County Courthouse in Littlefield.
Residents of Littlefield register with the Littlefield Police Department. Other incorporated communities in the county may have their own police agencies. If you live in Olton, Earth, or another town in Lamb County, contact the local police department to confirm whether they handle registration or whether the sheriff covers your area. The seven-day window to register starts the day you establish your address, and the obligation to sort out which agency covers you does not pause that clock.
When you come to register, bring valid photo ID and documentation of your current residential address. The registration officer will take your photo and fingerprints and submit the record to the Texas DPS. The DPS enters the data into the public registry, where it becomes searchable by anyone.
