(COLUMBUS, Ohio) — Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost issued the following statement regarding the death of former Pickaway County Sheriff Dwight Radcliff:
“Tough on crime and tirelessly dedicated to his county, Sheriff Radcliff has left a lasting imprint on Ohio’s law enforcement community. His career was intertwined with the Attorney General’s office, graduating from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation Law Enforcement Academy in 1954 and, later in his distinguished career, serving the office in numerous ways, including on the Ohio Organized Crime Investigations Commission and Law Enforcement Automated Data System Steering Committee. Sheriff Radcliff’s legacy of public service is prominently shown through his son, Robert, the current Pickaway County Sheriff, who is a terrific partner to my office. My deepest sympathies are with his wife, Betty, and the Radcliff family.”
