In July 2022, Officer Richard Norton resigned from the Broomfield Police Department following an internal investigation that found he sent inappropriate and unwanted sexual messages to four female coworkers, creating a hostile and offensive work environment. The investigation recommended his termination, but he resigned before it was enacted. Norton later joined the Morrison Police Department, where he was promoted to sergeant in September 2024. In October 2024, he was arrested on charges including child abuse and unlawful storage of a firearm, with allegations of years of stalking, abuse, and threats against his ex-wife and children.
