    Park County Sheriff’s Office 2015 Annual Report Scott A. Steward, Sheriff “Service, Safety, Security” 1 2 A MESSAGE FROM SHERIFF SCOTT A. STEWARD To the citizens of Park County: Each year the men and women of the Park County Sheriff’s Office face new and defining challenges as they strive to provide service, safety and security for our citizens and 2015 was certainly no exception. Our personnel experienced their share of triumphs and tragedies; from the apprehension and arrest of several homicide suspects, to the investigation into the shooting death of a former military service dog, to the recovery of the victims of a commuter plane crash and two separate drownings. And as always, our personnel continued to perform at an exceptionally high level with compassion, professionalism and commitment. The investigation of the Little Sand Coulee homicide culminated with the arrest of three suspects who are currently awaiting trial on homicide charges. Our deputies also apprehended a suspect wanted in connection with a murder near Prior, Montana just hours after the crime. The suspect in this case ruthlessly shot and killed two good Samaritans and wounded a third who had stopped to render him aid. We also spent many hours thoroughly investigating the shooting death of a military service dog that had attacked a passing bicyclist. The dog was considered a hero due to its two tours of duty in Iraq sniffing out explosives and chasing down enemy combatants. The case drew national attention because the dog had returned home and served as a service dog to a local military veteran.

  • Political Interference and the Challenges Facing the US
    THE YALE LAW JOURNAL FORUM JANUARY 15, 2021 Treat Every Defendant Equally and Fairly: Political Interference and the Challenges Facing the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices as the Justice Department Turns 150 Years Old Joyce White Vance abstract. The US Attorneys’ Offices are the flagships of the federal government’s law-en- forcement work. But as the Department of Justice (DOJ) approaches its 150th anniversary, there are deep concerns for their future. The four years of the Trump Administration have shaken public confidence in DOJ, and during his tenure, Attorney General William Barr all too ofen took on the role of the President’s lawyer rather than upholding the integrity and credibility of line prosecutors to work free from political interference. This Essay, written in the weeks leading up to the 2020 presidential election,1 argues that, in a new administration, there must be a hardcore realignment of cultural values inside of the Justice Department that supports its independence and permits line prosecutors to effectively resist and reject political interference in criminal matters. The past four years have revealed frailty in the Department that requires more than the new laws and new poli- cies that will be designed to shore up some of the weaknesses that have been revealed. Ultimately, even with those new laws and policies, there must be a culture restoration that guarantees they will be implemented effectively so that the independence of prosecutions from political influence, which is critical to our criminal-justice system, is firmly in place. introduction The moment when Aaron Zelinsky, an Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) in the District of Maryland, refused to silently stand by while Attorney 1.

    (lbtfirv of the Attnrnvg (@viral BHashingtnn, 01. 20530 September 24, 2020 The Honorable Lindsey Graham Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary United States Senate 290 Russell Senate Office Building Washington. D.C. 20510 Dear Chairman Graham, For months, the Department otlJustice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI") have been declassifying and providing documents to the Judiciary Committee related to the Inspector General's report, "Review of Four FISA Applications and Other Aspects of the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane Investigation." In connection with your Committee's investigation of these matters and ongoing hearings, you have been asking us to accelerate this process and to provide any additional information relating to the reliability of the work of Christopher Steele and the so-called "Steele dossier," as long as its release would not compromise U.S. Attorney John Durham's ongoing criminal investigation. A footnote in the Inspector General's report contains information, which up till now has been classified and redacted, bearing on the reliability of the Steele dossier. The FBI has declassified the relevant portion of that footnote, number 334, which states that "[t]he Primary Sub-source was the subject of an FBI counterintelligence investigation from 2009 to 2011 that assessed his/her documented contacts with suspected Russian intelligence officers." Further, at my request, the FBI has prepared a declassified summary of certain information from the counterintelligence investigation of the Primary Sub-source, which I am now providing to the Committee. I have consulted with Mr. Durham, who originally brought this information to my attention in the course of his investigation, and he has informed me that disclosure of the information will not interfere with his criminal investigation.
