DENVER – Ritter named veteran prosecutor Mark “Mac” Myers new district attorney of Dolores and Montezuma counties on Friday.
Myers will replace the late Jim Wilson, who died in a motorcycle accident in May. First Assistant Attorney General Rob Shapiro was named acting DA shortly after Wilson’s death.
Myers served two terms as the elected DA in the 9th Judicial District from 1997 to 2005 and as a deputy DA in the 22nd from 2005 to 2007. He was narrowly defeated by Wilson in a 2008 election.
