We are blessed to have an extremely qualified career prosecutor running for the office of District Attorney in Colorado’s 11th Judicial District this November, Jeff Lindsey. Not only has Jeff had extensive prosecutorial experience in various venues, he is a local, having graduated from Florence High School and currently residing in Cañon City.
Jeff has had experience as a prosecutor in every county in the 11th Judicial District (Fremont, Custer, Chaffee and Park).
The best description of Jeff Lindsey’s experience comes from this resume:
“His journey as a career prosecutor began by working in Chaffee and Park District Attorney’s Offices from 1997-2000, while living in Salida and commuting to Fairplay weekly. He next worked in the Pueblo County District Attorney’s Office from 2000-2004. From 2004-2021, Lindsey was a prosecutor for the Fourth Judicial District in El Paso and Teller Counties. During his time in the Fourth, Lindsey worked as a Special Victim’s Unit prosecutor, Senior Deputy District Attorney, and Chief Trial Deputy District Attorney. During his time as Chief Trial Deputy, he was responsible for the homicide prosecution team from 2011-2017 and County Court from 2017-2021. During his time as County Court Chief, he was able to recruit and mentor new attorneys. In 2017, Lindsey was recognized as the statewide Faculty of the Year for the Colorado District Attorney’s Council. In 2021, Jeff worked at the District Attorney’s Office in the 11th Judicial District, and then accept-ed a new opportunity to work in the 10th Judicial District in Pueblo where he presently serves as Chief Trial Deputy and third in command for DA Jeff Chostner’s office.
Lindsey has prosecuted every type of crime, supervised scores of attorneys, and provided justice to hundreds of victims. During his career, Lindsey has obtained over a half dozen life sentences on homicide cases and has been on numerous critical incident crime scenes. He currently maintains an active caseload and is responsible for several ongoing first-degree murder prosecutions.”
Jeff is married with three grown children and attends St. Benedict Parish Church in Florence. Jeff is more than happy to talk to the citizens in the 11th Judicial District: call or text at 719-271-0146 or email him at ElectLindsey  DA11th@gmail.com.
