I am sad to write this review but I feel it is necessary. My uncle in Iowa starting threatening my mom's life so she had to get a restraining order against him. The Iowa sheriff's handled this very well. Since he could no longer threaten or go near her he started to contact me in Colorado from Iowa. Eventually after trying to reason with him I had to contact the Arapahoe sheriff as I know he has firearms. After many tries I could not even get a sheriff to come see me to review all the texts. He had been threatening to come see me and even send people to my house. After many tries I was told by Jamie Wright that since I would not block his number and the texts were not threatening that she will be closing the case. I am unsure how she knew they weren't threatening as she would not even come review the texts. I did not block his number as I feared he would then just drive out here as he had threatened as I had explained. Eventually the sheriff's office from Iowa was able to put me on the restraining order in Iowa. I feel its moments like these that could have gotten me or my family's life killed by simple lack of response from our law enforcement. I pray that this is seen and understood by this department and new policies are implemented so that our citizens can feel safe and protected and not just blown off and ignored.
