Deceased Male Found Outside Boulder County Justice Center

Boulder County, Colo. - On August 13, 2025, just before 9:00 a.m., a Boulder County Sheriff’s Office deputy found a deceased male outside of the Boulder County Justice Center, 1777 6th Street, Boulder, CO, while conducting a routine security check around the building.
