Colorado County Sheriff R.H.
“Curly” Wied on Sept. 28 announced he will not seek re-election.
Sheriff Wied said, “For the past 42 years, I have served the citizens of Colorado County, beginning my career in 1981 and elected as your sheriff in 1996.
I wish to thank the citizens for their confidence and support during my tenure and I will always be grateful.
I appreciate the sheriff's office staff for all of their hard work and dedication, without them, my job would be impossible.”
He further stated that he will be supporting Sergeant Justin Lindemann who is running for the spot Sheriff Wied is vacating.
