Cleveland County Commissioners Appoint Darrell Weaver as Next Cleveland County Sheriff
Today, Cleveland County Commissioners announced the appointment of Darrell Weaver of Moore as the next Cleveland County Sheriff. Weaver will take the oath of office on Monday, July 6th. He’s resigning his senate post on July 5th.
Commissioners Rusty Grissom, Rod Cleveland, and Jacob McHughes said they were honored to interview several highly qualified candidates and that Weaver’s 28 years of experience with the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics, including his final nine years serving as OBN Director, made him stand out.
For the past eight years, Weaver has continued serving Oklahoma in a policy role as a state senator. As Chair of the Public Safety Committee, he helped advance legislation supporting law enforcement, victims’ rights, and Oklahoma’s criminal justice system.
Weaver also brings valuable leadership and financial management experience, with a degree in accounting and years of experience overseeing a multimillion-dollar law enforcement budget.
Following the announcement, Weaver toured the new sheriff's office and greeted staff members and deputies throughout the building. He was accompanied by his wife and daughter.
Cleveland County welcomes future Sheriff Darrell Weaver and looks forward to his leadership and service to our community.
