Aaron Appelhans, Wyoming's first Black sheriff, made the move last year. The suit, from a Black deputy who quit, details what it says were years of torment by the White one.
This week Corporal Derek Colling from the Albany County Sheriff's office resigned. Colling shot and killed Laramie resident Robbie Ramirez during a traffic stop in 2018. Ramirez was unarmed. Colling was hired after having been fired from the Las Vegas police department following an altercation with a photographer. He had also killed two people while working for that department and many objected when former Sheriff Dave O'Malley hired him.
