9 In 2008, the Fourth Judicial District Attorney s Office, through our partnership with and the DEA Southern Colorado Drug Task Force (SCDTF), began participating in the investigation of a large-scale drug trafficking organization with direct ties to a major Mexican drug cartel. Over the course of the 22 month investigation, the DA s Office reviewed and supervised more than 35 wiretaps that were monitored by DEA. Those wiretaps led to evidence that was disseminated throughout the country and allowed other DEA offices nationwide to further this investigation. Nationally this investigation was code-named Project Deliverance. Locally the investigation resulted in the arrest of 35 individuals on narcotics-related charges, and the seizure of more than 13 pounds of cocaine, 30 pounds of methamphetamine, 3.75 pounds of heroin, and over 1.4 million dollars in currency and assets. Nationally, the results of Project Deliverance included the arrest of 2,278 individuals and the seizure of $154 million dollars, 1,262 pounds of methamphetamine, 2.5 tons of cocaine, 1,410 pounds of heroin, 69 tons of marijuana, 501 weapons and 527 vehicles during the entire course of the operation. Project Deliverance also led to the arrest of Mexican cartel head Carlos Ramon Castro-Rocha. Castro-Rocha was arrested by Mexican authorities on May 30, 2010, based on an arrest warrant from the United States. Project Deliverance was such a success nationwide, and the Southern Colorado Drug Task Force s involvement so critical to the Project, that in June, 2011 the SCDTF was awarded Investigative Case of the Year by the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy. Deputy District Attorney Jeff Harwood was one of the members of the SCDTF who was at the national awards banquet in Washington, D.C. to accept the award on behalf of the Task Force.

11 75% of our community has some tie to the military. In response to a growing number of crimes being committed by soldiers, Veteran s Court officially launched in December, While Veteran s Court was originally developed to handle felony level offenses, we found that of the 3000 arrests involving military personnel, 1623 were misdemeanors. To serve this group we expanded Veteran s Court to include misdemeanors and traffic (DUI) cases in July, Some Statistical Data: We currently have 54 active cases in felony Veteran s Court. 89% are in compliance or have succeeded. The population in this program are 92% male, primarily white, and between the ages of

12 With cooperation and assistance from County Information Services, we established wireless access to all courtrooms in both El Paso and Teller Counties. We completed the first Disaster Recovery system and Business Continuity Plans for the District Attorney s Office, to include the installation of a server in Teller County to store back up data for El Paso County. We devised and implemented an e-based Discovery system that is in the testing phase and expected to go live in An E-Subpoena system was developed and implemented for Colorado State Patrol, eliminating paper and delays in service. We implemented an integrated an Evidence Tracking System with EPSO and CSPD, sharing data electronically and eliminating errors and redundancy. Over a week of labor is saved for each homicide case we receive for filing. We have implemented free video conferencing in our main conference rooms in both El Paso County and Teller County. We are able to hold employment interviews, training, and attend out of city meetings via the internet, eliminating travel expenses for these events. We have launched a new external web site: and added electronic employment applications.
