Garfield County Sheriff James D. Perkins issued his own statement at the time that said Carter acted in a “proactive and compassionate manner” during the traffic stop, but the woman “singled out and attacked” him for being a police officer.The woman initially faced up to a year in prison and a fine of up to $2,500. But when she agreed to plead guilty to the criminal mischief charge, the court agreed to hold her plea in abeyance.
The letter must be “sincere and heartfelt,” according to the agreement, and the Garfield County Attorney’s office must verify that the letter is “acceptable.” The woman’s brief letter — which she submitted, but court records did not indicate as of Wednesday whether it had been accepted — reads: “I apologize for my actions.
