"Well, ain't that a mother?" - Sheriff Adams' last words
Sheriff Nancy Adams was the sheriff of Lowell County. She was the hard line peace officer who replaced Ethan Miller when he was exposed as corrupt.

[edit] Personality
Sheriff Adams didn't appreciate Clark's tendency to always be "at the right place at the right time." She warned him repeatedly against interfering in police investigations during the man hunt for Paul Hayden, but she accepted his help during the search for Van McNulty. She followed up on his tip regarding Jason Dante, but she was furious when it didn't pan out.
She was very fair and went beyond the call of duty if something needed to be investigated. [citation needed] She also had a dry, quirky sense of humor. [citation needed]
She insisted on keeping a professional distance from the people in Smallville, in order to remain objective. [citation needed]
[edit] Season Two
Clark Kent made a negative first impression on Sheriff Adams when he threw Andy Connors on top of her police car. Of course Clark was just saving Lana, but Adams decided to keep a close eye on him, so when Clark witnesses a robbery of a LuthorCorp truck, he phones in an anonymous tip rather than speak with her again, but it lead her to search Eric Marsh's locker and arrest him.
[edit] Season Four
When Lois Lane and the sheriff saw Clark's superhuman powers, Kevin Grady used his memory altering powers to erase that memory.
[edit] Season Five
Sheriff Adams led the capture of the metahuman convicts, Tommy Lee and the Twins. She was able to figure out that the metahumans were inside the Kents' house due to understanding facial expressions, conversation, and obviously realizing that Lana Lang does not smoke cigarettes. After Clark helped arrest these criminals, she asked if he ever thought about getting into law enforcement, commenting on another occasion that she could use someone like him on the force. Sheriff Adams tried to save Lex and Lana from two rogue cops, but was killed in the process by one of the rogue cops: Deputy Harris.
[edit] Season Seven
In an alternate universe, Nancy Adams was alive and well and now had worked for the government, saying she left Smallville a long time ago. In this reality she was working with Lois Lane to expose Lex Luthor's corrupt government.
