Douglas County Sheriff Encourages Peaceful Protest

The Douglas County Sheriff says he is encouraging all sides to peacefully express their views at a weekend demonstration planned outside his office. Sheriff Dan Coverley came under fire last week after he posted a letter on his office’s website telling the library not to bother calling 911 for help after the library considered supporting the black lives matters movement. County officials have mapped out free-speech zones at the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center in Minden where protests are planned Saturday.
