A former Colorado Sheriff’s Deputy led a double life that saw him fake a bout with cancer to solicit cash from family and friends, it is claimed.

Now-fired and being held in jail, ex-El Paso County deputy Kevin Sypher, 57, was arrested in March over the alleged offense, after wedding a second wife in March 2023 while still married to his first.

He was reported missing twice last year, as cops say he mercilessly conned friends, family members and coworkers into giving him thousands of dollars in donations.

He instead spent the money on jewelry, vacations, and food, an arrest affidavit alleged – purchasing his second wife an engagement ring after already wedding another woman in California.

Sypher is facing charges of theft, charitable fraud, and official misconduct, as his ex-colleagues continue to probe the extent of his alleged crimes. He was fired in August 2023.
