Wyoming Bills For State Law Enforcement Department
Friends of the current state administration push a bill to create a Wyoming department of law enforcement modeled after Nebraska. It would enforce all laws, wage war on bootlegging auto theft and illegal game killing, and cooperate with counties and cities to arrest malefactors. The proposal outlines a commissioner, deputy, and seven agents with salaries ranging from 1800 to 4000 dollars, all based in the state capitol.
