SAGUACHE COUNTY - Former Saguache County deputy Wayne Clark failed to appear at his arraignment July 29 on charges of official misconduct, filed in July 2020 by district attorney Robert Willett.

One source close to law enforcement speculated he may have left the state. A warrant has been issued for Clark’s arrest.

Clark was with the Saguache County Sheriff’s Office for close to five years before being relieved of his duties.
