Manlove on Wednesday issued the following statement regarding her formal response to the Office of Bar Counsel:
I am glad for the opportunity to now be able to share information with my constituents to shed light on the criticism I have received as the District Attorney from our Laramie County judges and the Office of Bar Counsel. In a season of unprecedented variables, it is important that the citizens of Laramie County know the carefully weighed steps I took, and why.
The roles of Bar Counsel and the Board Professional Responsibility are important. It is necessary for lawyers to have oversight for our work, and I have great respect for the institution as a whole. My formal and comprehensive response should be evaluated by those who elected me, because I am confident there is no material or legal basis for this attempted administrative removal from my elected position as the Laramie County District Attorney.

Laramie County District Attorney Leigh Anne Grant Manlove announced late Monday afternoon that charges have been filed against Wyatt Dean Lamb in the death of 2-year-old Athian Rivera.
Lamb was arrested on unrelated warrants on Feb. 19 after the disappearance of Rivera, his then-girlfriend Kassandra Orona s son, triggered a search and the boy s body was found in a dumpster near the couple s apartment in south Cheyenne.
Police four days later announced they had forwarded an affidavit of probable cause to Manlove supporting additional charges of aggravated child abuse and murder; and on March 4, District Court Judge Catherine Rogers ordered Lamb be held without bond pending trial and bond revocation evidentiary proceedings in the unrelated case.
