Congratulations to Corporal Kaiser for her nomination for the 32nd Annual Beth Haynes Memorial Award. This countywide award was established by the Boulder Police Department in honor and memory of the tragic loss of Officer Haynes, who was killed in the line of duty responding to a domestic violence call in 1994. Officers are nominated for their dedication to victims of domestic violence. The Beth Haynes Memorial Award is viewed as one of the most prestigious annual awards given in Boulder County. Cpl. Kaiser was not chosen as the 2026 recipient of the award, but it is a great honor to be nominated and recognized for her work. From the left: Commander Sellers, Chief Rosipajla, Commander Molander, Corporal Kaiser, Sergeant Thompson, Detective Vogl, Commander Emerson.

We are very pleased to introduce Animal Protection Officer Brooke Spampinato. LPD hired Officer Spampinato in August, and she is now in the field training program, paired with another officer. Please welcome her to our community! In addition to swearing Officer Spampinato in last week, we celebrated several promotions that occurred over the past several months.
