A Loudoun County Police Department does not exist in Virginia. Instead, the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office enforces the state & local laws of Loudoun County.

If you ask Loudoun County's FOIA Officer to provide you with a full electronic copy of the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office General Orders (i.e. its policies & procedures), the response will be to pay about $2000 to get it.

The problem is that nearly all of the of the police departments in the DC Metro area distribute their General Orders online for free.

“Leadership, professionalism and accountability are critical components to law enforcement in serving our communities,” said Sheriff Chapman.  He added, “We will do everything in our power at the LCSO to ensure public trust, transparency, and accountability to the citizens we serve.”  https://www.loudoun.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=4450
