I am so excited to bring my kiddo to the office today ❤️ I will give you a full tour once all the families and kids arrive… there is a Jurassic park hallway with a jeep somewhere around here 🤯 @FirstDAofCO #Halloween2026
Our 3rd #BehindTheBadge spotlight for #DVAM: 2026 Award Nominee Investigator Dan Manka with @jeffcosheriffco .
He developed a process to detect hidden trackers, often used by abusers to stalk victims. His commitment to survivor safety goes beyond the investigation.
#DVAM2026
Our second of four #BehindTheBadge spotlights for #DVAM. A follow-up visit by Sgt. Vaske with @LakewoodPDCO helped build a victim’s trust, connect her with hospital care and services through @PorchLightFJC, and give her the courage to pursue prosecution against her abuser.
Our first of four #BehindTheBadge spotlights for #DVAM. Proud to work alongside these officers, nominated for their commitment to DV survivors. Hear how Officer Tafoya with @ArvadaPolice recognized signs of trauma and suspected more to the story.
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. 💜
This morning @JeffcoColorado Commissioners proclaimed #DVAM, reaffirming our commitment to survivors.
We’re fortunate to have resources like @PorchLightFJC & The Family Tree. Thank you to all across Jeffco working for survivors.

Survivors of domestic violence and sex assault shouldn't have to re-tell and relive their trauma every time they need resources. @PorchLightFJC puts dozens of providers under one roof. Maximum help, minimum trauma. I'll match the next fifty $5 donations: coloradogives.org/story/Y66d…

“The #1 question every family asks is, ‘Is the defendant going to get out?'”. And no amount of money, no matter what we have argued in bond hearings earlier that week or maybe earlier that day, makes them feel safe," said DA Alexis King. @FirstDAofCO

Attention Denver & Jeffco residents! Please beware of impersonators claiming to be an investigator from our office. Scammers are demanding in-person meetings and money for a warrant. This is a #scam. Our office does NOT contact residents to solicit money or payment.
Stay safe!
