Protecting Our Future. Serving Our Community.

Welcome to the official campaign site for Hunter Velasquez, your candidate for Sheriff of Costilla County.

With 7 years of experience in law enforcement and 6 years proudly serving as a volunteer firefighter, I’ve dedicated my life to protecting others — not just in uniform, but as a neighbor, a mentor, and a public servant. I’m running for sheriff because Costilla County deserves leadership that’s visible, involved, and committed to real change.

My priorities are clear:
✅ School Safety – Every child deserves a safe place to learn and grow.
✅ Community Outreach – Building trust between law enforcement and the people we serve.
✅ Community Involvement – Creating programs that invite citizens to take part in shaping public safety.

I believe in a sheriff’s office that listens, leads with integrity, and partners with the community to solve problems together — not one that operates behind closed doors. As your sheriff, I’ll bring honest leadership, strong local values, and a hands-on approach to making Costilla County safer for everyone.

This is our county. Let’s protect it — together.
