DENVER — A Wyoming sheriff has a message for Denver law enforcement:"Work in Wyoming where breaking the law is still illegal and cops are funded."
Kozak, who has been the Laramie County Sheriff's Office since November 2022, said the county has 17 vacancies in the jail and another eight patrol positions open. “Our hiring unit is just overwhelmed with all the contacts. I know just last night alone, I think we received about 100 requests for recruiters to contact people,” Kozak said. “Our community really values law enforcement and they want their law enforcement officers enforcing the law that we have.”
Jordan Fuja, press secretary for Denver Mayor Mike Johnston, took issue with the"defund the police" narrative. In a press conference announcing cuts, Johnston said there would be"no change in public-facing services." Addressing the cuts to DPD, Chief Ron Thomas reiterated that leadership worked to avoid cuts to core services.
Law enforcement in Denver also have opportunities to earn more pay by working Nuggets, Broncos and other sports and entertainment activities in the Mile High City.DPD staffing includes 284 detective positions, 233 sergeants and 54 lieutenants.
