Ed Aber – La Plata County Sheriff’s Office

Written by CBKN76

Former Jail Commander Ed Aber resigned in July 2023 following substantiated claims of widespread sexual harassment toward female jail staff and contractors. Investigations revealed inappropriate comments and interactions, including a remark about a staff member’s tan lines. Additionally, Aber failed to record nonroutine interactions with inmates using a body-worn camera, violating department policy. Had he not resigned, termination and ineligibility for rehire were likely outcomes.
