A man who called the office of Colorado’s top elections official to say that the “angel of death was coming for her in the name of Jesus Christ” has been sentenced to two years of probation.
Fifty-two-year-old Kirk Wertz was sentenced Monday after being convicted last week of one count of retaliating against an elected official, a felony, for the June 2022 call to the office of Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold.
Court documents showed Wertz was arrested July 6, 2022, after investigators tracked his cell phone moving from Kansas to Colorado following the phone call to Griswold’s office. He admitted to the call and was taken into custody without incident. According to a court document, when a state trooper called him back, Wertz refused to answer whether he planned to harm Griswold. He also described himself as an “Oath Taker and an Oath Keeper." The Follow UpWhat do you want Denver7 to follow up on? Is there a story, topic or issue you want us to revisit?
