At least one Mesa County Sheriff’s deputy shot a man Sunday morning during what police believed was an ongoing dispute between the man and a woman, according to the Grand Junction Police Department. The incident started around 10:49 a.m. when someone called 911 to report that a vehicle was swerving on Interstate 70 business loop and the people inside the vehicle appeared to be arguing, police said. Not long after that, deputies spotted a vehicle that matched the caller’s description near the 400 block of Coronado Court. They spoke to a witness who said a man had just pulled a woman into a home and that she “appeared to be in distress.” The deputies went to the home but no one came to the door, so they forced their way inside. They found a boy and took him out of the home. Then, at least one deputy shot the man. Police provided no details around what led to the shooting. They did not say whether the man was armed or how many deputies fired. Police spokeswoman Heidi Davidson … [Read more...] about At least one Mesa County Sheriff’s deputy shoots man Sunday

Jefferson County unveils new regional crime laboratory
GOLDEN — A new crime lab serving Jefferson County law enforcement agencies is now in operation and should greatly reduce the wait time on forensic analysis that in the past was sent to a state laboratory. The new lab is at the Jefferson County Sheriff’s complex, 200 Jefferson County Parkway, and will serve the sheriff’s office and the Lakewood, Arvada, Golden and Wheat Ridge police departments. “We anticipate that we will be cutting time frames in half of what we have been experiencing,” Jeffco Sheriff’s Office division chief Jeff Shrader said. The new 16,500 square-foot facility is more than six times the size of the old crime lab at the sheriff’s complex and will employ 14 people with the ability to expand to 22.

‘Irreparable Harm’: Texas Sheriff Says Biden’s No Deportation Order Is Creating ‘Lawlessness’ At The Southern Border
Jackson County, Texas sheriff A.J. Louderback says the Biden administration is enforcing its no deportation policy and creating “lawlessness” at the southern border. “Every peace officer in the United States should be extremely concerned about the attitude, the lawlessness, the complete abject removal of law,” Louderback told Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” Under President Joe Biden’s non-deportation rules, immigrants can’t be deported if they get a DUI, commit fraud, tax crimes, or assault, Fox News reported, noting that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will be stood down. “The memo that I received this last week it’s essentially a defund ICE by memo, by memorandum. It was sent out by [Transportation Security Administration Administrator] David Pekoske on Jan. 20, 2021,” Louderback continued.

Report: Court Rules Vanessa Bryant Can Obtain Names Of LASD Deputies Accused Of Sharing Crash Site Photos
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — A federal judge ruled Monday that Vanessa Bryant can obtain the names of four Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies accused of sharing “unauthorized” crash site photos . According to a report by the Los Angeles Times , U.S. District Judge John F. Walter rejected the effort of L.A. County lawyers to keep the deputies’ names under seal in the lawsuit. The lawyers argued that releasing the deputies’ names could make them the target of hackers. The ruling means Bryant’s lawyers can add the deputies’ names — as well as details from the internal affairs investigation into their conduct — to an amended complaint in the suit against the county and the sheriff’s department, according to the Times .
