Entire Police Department Resigns in Colorado Town - Olivia Browne Period 6
We've heard a lot the past few months about police leaders in major cities stepping down, but one Colorado town took things a step further - the entire department resigned. The police department in Green Mountain Falls, Colorado, only had four employees: a marshal and three deputies. They haven't spoken out publicly about what made them leave their positions in the small city of about 700 full-time residents.

Interesting, I wonder what could have made all of them resign. Now they will have to hire a whole new police department. I also wonder if crime in increasing right now because of the vacancies.

It'll be interesting to see how the town reacts and if crime increases or decreases
