GREAT FALLS — Lloyde Paul Ogden, Jr., a Cascade County detention officer, was arrested on Sunday, August 17, 2025, and is facing charges of felony assault with a weapon, and misdemeanor partner/family member assault.

Sheriff Jesse Slaughter said during a news conference on Monday that just after 3:00 a.m. on Sunday, Cascade County dispatch received a report of a family disturbance at a Great Falls residence. The caller stated Ogden was drinking, making suicidal statements, and was armed with a handgun. The caller, who was inside the same home as Ogden, initially refused to leave with three juvenile children, fearing Ogden would harm himself if left alone.
