Undersheriff resigns
Editor’s Note: This press release from Sheriff Dougherty announces the resignation of his Undersheriff:
I, Sheriff Kevin M. Dougherty of the Teller County Sheriff’s Office regretfully announce that my Undersheriff Marcus J. Woodward is resigning his position as Undersheriff so he can seek the office of Teller County Sheriff in the 2010 election.
Undersheriff Woodward has served as my Undersheriff for the last seven years. During my tenure as Teller County Sheriff, Undersheriff Woodward has always had the goal of becoming the Teller County Sheriff.
Earlier this year he was advised by legal counsel that there are federal mandates which prohibit him from running for the Office of Sheriff while employed as the Teller County Undersheriff. Therefore, he has voluntarily resigned his position as Undersheriff and agreed to take a Commanders position within the Teller County Sheriff’s Office.
In my many years in law enforcement I have known many professional law enforcement officers. Marcus Woodward is one of the best in the business and a man of integrity.
I support him 100 percent in his bid for Teller County Sheriff.
Commander Marcus Woodward will be sending an email shortly disclosing the place and time of his upcoming press conference.
Thank you,
Sheriff Kevin M. Dougherty
