Welcome to The George Brauchler DA Podcast—your front-row seat to the world of true crime, seen through the eyes of one of Colorado's most seasoned prosecutors.
Today's guest is Douglas County Sheriff Darren Weekly—a law enforcement veteran with over 30 years of experience taking on some of Colorado's most dangerous criminals.
Sheriff Weekly shares how his dream of becoming a police officer began at just five years old, and how his father's time in prison influenced that calling. From working undercover as a student in a local high school, to lessons learned behind the walls of the county jail, Weekly reflects on the pivotal moments that defined his path.
We also explore the political side of modern law enforcement—and the grisly triple homicide case that still haunts him nearly three decades later- a case where the suspect walked free.
I'm Tom Mustin. Let's dive in and meet Sheriff Darren Weekly.
