Today in Wyoming history:

In 1873, Gov. John A. Campbell approved an act creating Uinta County to build a courthouse and a jail in Evanston. The courthouse remains in that use today and is the oldest courthouse in Wyoming that still serves its original function. Johnson County's 1884 courthouse is the second oldest.

Court documents describe the moose as “likely blind in her right eye and in poor health” citing a still shot of the video showing Platt “kneeling on the moose pinning her down.”

The affidavit further outlines another segment of video in which Platt is “riding and spurring a cow moose that appeared to be in poor health ... with a lariat around her neck standing in tall sage brush struggling to escape.” Platt’s actions are described as “aggressively spurring” the animal while riding it.

Hello Everyone!

We just wanted to remind everyone that the 30 + year traditional Shop With a Cop event will be happening this SATURDAY, Dec. 13th. Here are a few things we would like people to know:

1. We have already selected the children who will be participating this year. We have a thorough check-in process. Please do not just drop your child off in hopes that we can take them, as we have limited resources in our First Responder shoppers and track every child as they move through each location.
2. Our convoy of vehicles down Harrison Drive to Walmart will begin between 7:15 to 7:30 am. This may cause delays in traffic, but it's truly awesome to watch, and we encourage people to line the streets to support our kiddos!
Also, we would like to give a shout out to Wyoming Highway Patrol
who help with the event and also provide turkey dinners to the families of the participants.
We look forward to this day every year and cannot wait to share the Christmas spirit with our kiddos!

Happy Holidays!
