Lauren Wild – Walsh County Sheriff’s Office

Written by CBKN76

In 2010, Sheriff Lauren Wild terminated Deputy Ron Nord the day after Nord ran against him in the sheriff’s election. Nord filed a lawsuit alleging First Amendment violations, claiming he was fired in retaliation for his campaign statements. The court ultimately granted Wild qualified immunity, shielding him from liability. The case highlighted concerns about potential retaliatory actions within the department.
