The Washoe County Sheriff's
Office is concerned with keeping the community informed about the
operation of the Sheriff's Office. One of the ways to accomplish
this is by regularly keeping the news media, and thereby the public,
informed of events involving the Sheriff's Office and its personnel.
The Public Information Officer (P.I.O.) coordinates this by acting
as a liaison between the Sheriff's Office and media representatives.
Duties include assisting reporters assigned to cover news stories
and providing them with general information at the scene of major
incidents. Our goal is to provide timely and factual information
to the community we serve.
The P.I.O.
is available 24 hours a day to respond to the scene of major incidents.

Washoe County Sheriff’s Detectives, with the help of United States Marshals, have arrested Mary Arlayne Baymiller, 73, in connection to the stabbing death of her husband Charles Alan Baymiller, which occurred in October at their residence in Incline Village.
Baymiller was at her residence in Fresno, California when Marshals took her into custody. She is charged with Murder with a Deadly Weapon.
The case began October 5th, 2009, when Washoe County Deputies responded, at the request of a family member, to check the welfare of the elderly couple. At approximately 8:00PM, deputies arrived at the condo and located Charles deceased, the victim of an apparent stabbing.
Mary was unconscious and needing medical assistance. She was transported by Care Flight to the Renown Medical Center for treatment. After her release she returned to her residence in Fresno where she was taken into custody today.
Should she agree to sign a waiver of extradition, Baymiller would be transported to Reno in the next few weeks.
