Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office Special Investigation Unit (SIU)

SIU investigates allegations of child physical and sexual abuse and neglect received form mandatory reports and from the public at large. One of their priorities is to minimize the trauma for victims by having them share their story only once.

Officers and Detectives coordinate investigations with other participating agencies to ensure that trauma is minimized for young victims. They also refer criminal cases to the Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office for consideration of charges.

If you are a mandatory or non-mandatory reporter who suspects child physical or sexual abuse or neglect is happening, your report is referred to Washington State Department of Child, Youth, and Families (DCYF).
