After shooting, unrest, Wyoming gets its first Black sheriff | News, Sports, Jobs

Feb 16, 2021 AP Photo/Mead Gruver Albany County Sheriff Aaron Appelhans stands in the county courthouse in Laramie, Wyo. Wednesday, Feb. 3. LARAMIE, Wyo. (AP) As a student at the Wyoming Law Enforcement Academy, Aaron Appelhans used to look at the photos of past graduating classes hanging on the wall. “I got to see, for the most part, ain’t a whole lot of people that looked like me around here,” he recalled of the mainly white faces. A decade later, Appelhans was appointed Wyoming’s first Black sheriff, a post he took months after fury over racist policing roiled U.S. cities. His turf includes one of Wyoming’s last Democratic strongholds, but the state is overwhelmingly conservative and white and he’s already faced a racist remark from a lawmaker.

Wyoming s first Black sheriff takes office in troubled times - Casper, WY Oil City News

Wyoming’s first Black sheriff takes office in troubled times Albany County Sheriff Aaron Appelhans stands in front of the courthouse in Laramie on Dec. 21, 2020. Appelhans is the first Black sheriff in the state of Wyoming. (Joel Funk/WyoFile) Albany County Sheriff Aaron Appelhans still has some work to do before his office is set up. The walls are mostly empty as stacks of framed pictures sit on shelves and the floor, paperwork piled high obscures the desktop. Behind it all sits the new sheriff, making sense of the opportunity he’s seized. “It was a bit of a whirlwind for the first week,” Appelhans said with a laugh. “But it’s been overwhelmingly positive.”
