“Being the Sheriff of Weld County was one of the greatest honors I have ever had and I am proud to endorse Matt Turner as the next Sheriff of Weld County. The best Sheriff’s are grown within the Office. Matt began his career as a corrections officer at the Weld County jail and has worked hard to learn as much about the Office as possible. Matt is an active participant in legislative discussions at the Capitol, and strives to uphold the values of Weld County each and every day. I can confidently say that Matt Turner will continue to protect the values, ethics, and mission of both the Weld County community and the Weld County Sheriff’s Office.”

I am very pleased to endorse Matt Turner for the upcoming election for Weld County Sheriff.
Matt has worked at the Sheriff’s Office for about 13 years and has been involved in many of the
functions/divisions of the Office. Matt is currently a Captain of the Administration division and
previously served as the Jail Captain and patrol sergeant as well as Public Information Officer.
Matt is also a graduate of the FBI National Training Academy which is the premier law
enforcement training provider in the US. His unique experience has given him a very broad and
knowledgeable background on which to base his future work at the Sheriff’s Office.
Captain Turner served 7 years in the United States Army and the Colorado Army National
Guard. He was awarded the Purple Heart Award while deployed in Iraq in 2007. We here in
Weld County have a unique opportunity to honor an American Patriot and a hard-working Weld
County Deputy with our trust by asking him to represent us as our next County Sheriff.
Please Join me in supporting Matt Turner for Weld County Sheriff.

Matt Turner has my full support to be the next Sheriff of Weld County. As a candidate from within the Sheriff’s Office, Matt knows and understands the values of Weld County, and has been a strong voice fighting to protect our constitutional rights during legislative discussions at the Capitol. Matt has the knowledge, experience, and drive to keep Weld safe!

Law and order is something we take seriously in Weld County, and if safety is important to you, you’ll want to have Matt Turner at the helm of the Sheriff’s team. When working with him on the Opioid council, I’ve been impressed with his leadership and lightening quick grasp of needs. He’s clearly the right person for the position.
