Colorado Times Recorder: The leader of a conservative Jefferson County parents group is suing her local newspaper, and she’s hired former Secretary of State Scott Gessler to represent her.

Lindsay Datko founded Jeffco Kids First (JKF) during the pandemic, largely in opposition to the county and school district public health regulations. When classrooms reopened, however, the group began focusing on various elements of what it perceived to be the “woke” culture of the Jefferson County School District, most of which were LGBT-related.

The Facebook group, which has over 6,500 members, consists largely of posts by members angrily sharing examples of LGBT-inclusive curriculum or policy choices. Datko herself makes repeated references to “groomers,” claiming child sex predators not only are present in Jeffco schools but that they are supported by district policies.
