Since learning the trial date for Ian Cranston, the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office has been preparing and planning to ensure the safety and security of those in the courthouse during the trial. The Sheriff’s Office will have additional personnel in the courthouse throughout the duration of the trial. We continue to work with our outside agency partners as our priority is always public safety.
DCSO is aware of the public’s interest in the process and future outcome of this trial. The Sheriff’s Office respects the rights of those wishing to peacefully protest. While respecting the right to peacefully protest, DCSO will be monitoring activities inside and outside of the courthouse and will hold those accountable that choose to break the law.
