Chaffee County Sheriff John Spezze sent an open letter to residents today.

Hi Everyone
With the latest order from the governors office directing all Colorado citizens to stay at home it raised fear and uncertainty to an even higher level among our county and state citizenry. We most definitely live in a very uneasy time and I am very compassionate to the tough times we are facing now and to what lies ahead. I want everyone to know that your sheriff personnel were selected to their positions because they are the best of the best. They have ties to our community and we are dedicated to continue providing services to our communities. I have reminded them that we are all experiencing uncertainty and that common sense and compassion are our cornerstone as we forge ahead. Your sheriff’ office understands this and we are here to serve you

Respectfully
John A Spezze
Chaffee County Sheriff
