Jeffco Sheriff Jeff Shrader announced Aug. 22 that he is running for re-election in 2018, in part because there’s still more community work he wants to do.
“I’m not done yet. I’m really proud of what we’ve been able to do at the Sheriff’s Office over the last few years, but one term is not enough,” said Shrader in a phone interview.
If re-elected next year, Shrader said some of his top priorities are advocating for public safety resources to remain a priority in the county budget, requiring field deputies to wear body cameras, engaging the community more, and providing more services to inmates that exhibit mental illness and drug use.
