@Copwatchtv obtained lapel footage from Española Police Department’s seizure of two cellphones belonging to Rio Arriba County, New Mexico, Sheriff James Lujan. Video shows twenty-minutes of multiple officers asking the sheriff to comply with the search warrant. The case stems from two search warrants that directed them to seize his county-issued work cellphone as well as his personal phone. Twice this Spring, the Sheriff has arrived during Española Police Department's investigations. EPD Detective Ernest Saucedo discovered multiple communications using a social media service between Chacon and Española City Councilor John Ramon Vigil.. EPD appears to have probable cause to search the Sheriff's phones to see if he was abusing his power with two cases he was involved in. EPD is investigating both cases and no formal charges against the Sheriff have been filed. ***This is part 3 of a 5 part series. Or possibly more,,,STAY TUNED!!!
