A Wyoming sheriff is trying to recruit deputies by posting a billboard in Denver, Colorado.
“Work in Wyoming where breaking the law is STILL ILLEGAL & cops are still funded,” reads a billboard the Laramie County Sheriff’s Office placed near downtown Denver.
Laramie County Sheriff Brian Kozak said the billboard touts the whole state of Wyoming as a law-and-order state, and that people in the Cowboy State value law enforcement. He figures Denver cops aren’t feeling much of that after the city recently slashed its police department by $8 million.
“We do enforce the rules and the law, and I want people to know about Wyoming — that that’s our culture here,” Kozak told Cowboy State Daily on Monday. “And statewide, communities do support law enforcement. There’s no doubt about that.”
