In August 2013, former Coos County sheriff’s deputy John Wesley Walker was indicted by a federal grand jury along with 17 others, including his wife, in connection with a cockfighting operation in eastern Oregon. The indictment alleged that Walker was involved in organizing and promoting illegal cockfighting events, which are considered a form of animal cruelty and are illegal under federal law. The case drew significant media attention due to the involvement of a law enforcement officer in such activities.
