Updates, this guy obviously had a grudge against local LEOs. Heavy five fast facts had him as a lawyer in Wyoming.
Riehl, who was killed, was an Army veteran who served briefly in Iraq, Fox 31 Denver reported.
He is seen wearing an Iraq combat veteran hat in a Dec. 13 YouTube video in which he called Spurlock a “clown” and a deputy a pimp.
“You know who’s going flub big time next election, Spurlock,” Riehl said in the video called “Fire Sheriff Spurlock.”
He said he was running against Spurlock as a libertarian.
A video posted on Nov. 28 showed a traffic stop by a police officer in the city of Lone Tree — apparently taken inside the officer's car — that Riehl said was done illegally. He claimed the officer clocked the wrong driver, identifying the officer by name in the video and calling him "dirty."
"S---bag, dirtbag, liar," he says as the officer questioned the driver. "He's the boss, huh? He's the Nazi in charge with the stripes on his shoulder and the fake badge."

On December 13, 2017, Matthew Riehl identified himself as a libertarian candidate for the Douglas County Sheriff’s position in a YouTube video. The video is titled, “Fire Sheriff Spurlock.” In the clip, Riehl refers to Deputy Brian Briggs of the sheriff’s department as a “pimp.” Riehl, wearing an Iraqi Freedom Veteran hat, says that Deputy Briggs is a “pimp in the field.” Riehl describes a story involving a woman he had arranged to meet but prior to doing so was “ambushed” by Briggs. In addition, NBC Denver’s Anastasiya Bolton reports that Riehl “exchanged angry tweets” with the sheriff’s office.
NBC Denver’s Kyle Clark reports that Riehl did a tour of Iraq in 2009 until 2010. In 2012, Riehl was honorably discharged from the U.S. Army reserve after joining in 2003. Clark later reported that while in Iraq, Riehl’s duty were mainly in security. At the time of his discharge, Riehl was an E4, one of the junior ranks in the U.S. Army.
