There’s a job opening at the Wayne County Sheriff ’s Office, one where being a dummy is an advantage. Law enforcemen­t officers in the southcentr­al Utah county, which includes the north entrance to Capitol Reef National Park, are looking for a new mannequin to place in the police cruiser that the sheriff ’s office parks at strategic spots to deter speeders. The old mannequin, dubbed “Deputy Parker Bogus Dolittle,” was procured by former Sheriff Kurt Taylor, who took it with him when he left office, Deputy Micah Gulley says. Dolittle served for 16 years on Wayne County’s highways and byways.
