Meet Chief Maples

As Chief of Police, I am proud of the men and women of the Chillicothe Police Department. We are dedicated to minimizing crime and giving the citizens and visitors the best safety possible. The Chillicothe Police Department is a full service law enforcement agency committed to maintaining a safe and secure community through service, mutual cooperation and respect. Our goal is to deliver quality efficient service while working in cooperation with local government, community groups, service organizations, businesses, residents, and all community visitors.

I have been fortunate to reside in the community of Chillicothe my whole career. The members of your police department are chosen for this profession based on their strong ethics and a demonstrated desire to make a positive difference. Some of the members of the police department are also members of this community as well and care for it just like you do. I encourage your comments and your interactions with our staff.
