17th Judicial District Attorney's Office

What 17th Judicial District Attorney's Office does

The 17th Judicial District Attorney's Office is a Colorado state government entity that serves as the exclusive prosecutorial authority for criminal cases arising in Adams and Broomfield Counties. Led by District Attorney Brian S. Mason, who assumed office on January 12, 2021, the office employs 51-100 staff across four locations: a Brighton headquarters, a Broomfield office, a Diversion Office, and a Victim Witness Office. Its mandate is the fair and ethical prosecution of felony and misdemeanor offenses, including violent crimes, domestic violence, drug trafficking, and motor vehicle theft, alongside victim advocacy and criminal justice reform initiatives.

The office's core product is prosecutorial service delivery, supplemented by a diversified portfolio of programs: a Financial Crimes Unit, diversion and deferral programs (alternatives to traditional prosecution), victim-witness services, and specialized initiatives targeting fentanyl, gun violence, mental health, and sexual/domestic violence. Its technology stack centers on a public Data Dashboard (data.dacolorado.org/17th/) that publishes case referrals, outcomes, and performance indicators for transparency and accountability. The office also operates educational programs such as the DA Citizens Academy and engages in state-level legislative advocacy.

The entity operates as a government public service funded by taxpayer appropriations, with no commercial revenue model, pricing, or GTM motion. Distribution occurs through direct public-service delivery via court proceedings, community programs, and victim support. Its commercial equivalent would be a regulated monopoly, with multi-agency task force partnerships (North Metro Drug Task Force, Commerce City/Brighton Sexual Assault Task Force, Critical Incident Response Teams) and a planned Family Justice Center opening in 2026 deepening its institutional ecosystem.
