LETTER: Does an Un-Elected County Attorney Run Our County?

My name is Wayne Bryant, and I am running for Archuleta County Sheriff in 2022.

I have been denied access to the ballot for refusing to comply with an unconstitutional statute. (see AmericansAgainstfraudandCorruption.com for an in-depth explanation). As a matter of fact, a ‘Statute’ is not a law — [Flournoy vs. First Nat. Bank of Shreveport, 197 la.1067,3Sold 244,248].

Per a US Supreme Court Decision: “The Common law is the real law, the Supreme Law of the land; the code, rules, regulations, policies, and statutes are not the law.” [Self v. Rhay. 61 Wn (2d) 261]

US Supreme Court Decision: “All codes, rules, and regulations are for government authorities only, not human/Creators in accordance with God’s laws. All codes, rules, and regulations are unconstitutional and lacking due process…” [Rodrigues v. Ray Donavan (U.S. Department of Labor) 769 F. 2d 1344, 1348 (1985).1]

You and I have been misled.

I pledge here and now that my job, as your County Sheriff, will be to stand up and defend our Constitutional Rights even if that means being a write-in candidate for Sheriff.

Within hours on August 4, after submitting a sworn Affidavit of Truth that I have never been convicted of a felony, our County Attorney instructed our County Recorder to deny my ballot access. So now I need to ask a question. Did the County Attorney go to or call each commissioner in order to get their approval to deny me access to the ballot, or did he act on his own? Was the open meeting law violated to make that decision? They all work in the same building.

I find it curious, because in all my years living here, I’ve never seen any County official act so quickly. I still chuckle to myself. Do you think they don’t want me to be Sheriff? A Sheriff who will actually do his job which is to protect our Constitutional Rights?

I have approach the BoCC (November 9 and 16) during public comment and asked to be placed on the agenda to discuss the matter publicly. As they look over to the attorney, I see his eyes and head shake ‘no’. Then silence and that deer in the headlight stare. To my dismay, no action has been taken thus far.

Didn’t the BOCC recently declare Archuleta County a Constitutional County? So, was all that just to pacify us? Who is running our County?

This has to stop. The Sheriff is the elected official whose sworn duty is to protect our God given rights. We will return to Common Law after you write me in. All those that have violated all of our rights will be held accountable by you, in our own Grand Juries. We, have (by being lazy) allowed this to happen, and we must now reclaim our rights.

Thomas Jefferson stated, “If a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obliged to do so.”
