Thank You Jinx for keeping El Paso County safe. I truly hope that you had a wonderful time patrolling in our states mountains and are getting all of the mountains, meadows, and treats you can while you are in heaven. I also thank your mother for her work in protecting you colleagues and advocating for stricter punishment for people who harm K9s and thank your father for his work in the sheriff department. I am very glad that HB24-1074 has been approved and nicknamed in your honor. Thank you for your service Jinx.
