Ozzie Knezovich (/kəˈnɛzəvɪtʃ/ kə-NEZ-ə-vitch; born March 30, 1963) is an American politician and law enforcement official formerly serving as sheriff of Spokane County, Washington.

The local Republican Party and the outgoing sheriff both endorsed Cal Walker, the Spokane Valley Chief of Police.

"[8] Knezovich also accused Governor of Washington Jay Inslee of violating his oath of office by signing an executive order prohibiting state agencies from assisting in enforcement federal immigration laws.

[8] The Spokesman-Review later reported that murder of law enforcement officers reached historic lows during the Obama administration, and that Inslee's executive order did not apply to sheriff's departments.

[16] In 2018, Knezovich was challenged for re-election by Scott Maclay, a respiratory therapist who had legally changed his name to DumpOzzie Dot Com in protest of the sheriff.
