Our deputies responded to a domestic dispute involving Vicki, 71, and her boyfriend. Vicki told Deputy Weiner the argument started because her ‘babies were hungry.’ She is parenting her two great-grandchildren, ages 8 and 10. She told deputies her boyfriend had cooked the last two hot dogs for dinner and made the kids watch him eat, while they went to bed hungry. The argument escalated resulting in the boyfriend calling 911, but when deputies arrived, they determined Vicki's story was more credible and asked the boyfriend to leave. Deputy Weiner said his heart broke for the children, so he left the home and went to Walmart to buy groceries. Vicki was so appreciative, she encouraged us to share this body camera video. Thank you Deputy Weiner for the kindness, compassion and generosity you showed this family. #helpingthecommunity #kindnessmatters
@ArapahoeSO OUTSTANDING. We'll discuss 4-7pMT today on the program @710KNUS
@ArapahoeSO @debfriesenmd How can we help Vicki? I’m sobbing right now. My heart aches for her. Can we drop donations off for her so she can remain private? I really want to help.
@ArapahoeSO @KDVR @9NEWS Those kids are so blessed to have their great-grandmother caring for them, but I know it has to be a great strain on her ❤ @ArapahoeSO if you could get me the kids school supply lists, I'd love to take care of that! What organizations out there can assist her?
@ArapahoeSO Please advise if there is anything we can do to support such cases as your deputies come across.
@ArapahoeSO Can we take donations to the office help ensure those children have what they need to start the school year?
