Executive Officer

Karl O’Brian Dent, Sr., has over 10 years’ experience in security and law enforcement. Dent spent much of that time as a military, civilian, and federal police officer. He has been instrumental in the training of many military, civilian, and federal police officers. Dent has commanded some of the most elite officers in responding to all forms of emergency situations that can arise in a law enforcement environment. He brings with him administrative and supervisory skills that include scheduling, budgeting overtime, and creating ways to reduce employees’ fraud, waste, and abuse.

While serving in the military, Dent’s focus was on anti-terrorism. He focused on detecting, disrupting, and dismantling terrorist sleeper cells in Iraq and Afghanistan before they were able to act. Dent spent time acting alone identifying and preventing acts of terrorism by individuals with a terrorist agenda. He was able to detect, disrupt, and dismantle terrorist support networks, including financial support networks, during his deployment. Dent enhanced the capability to quickly ascertain the reliability, implications, and details of terrorist threats and improve the capacity to disseminate threat-related information to local, state, and federal agencies and the private sector as needed. He was also able to enhance the overall contribution to the U.S. intelligence community and to senior policy makers in the military by providing timely and accurate in-depth analysis of the terrorist threat and other information of value on an ongoing basis.

As the founder of Rocky Mountain Protective Service, a security protection company that works with high-profile individuals, including executives, dignitaries, and celebrities, protects residential and commercial properties, and offers security consulting and training, Dent strives to maintain universally high standards of support for all his clients.

Prior to establishing Rocky Mountain Protective Service, Dent attended the United States Army 31-B Military Police Academy, Department of the Air Force Federal Civilian Police Academy, Department of the Army Federal Civilian Police Academy, and Pikes Peak Regional Law Enforcement Academy where he obtained his Colorado P.O.S.T Certification PID B - 140039, 92Y - Unit Supply Specialist School, Combat Life Savers, Prop Book UT Supply Enhance Classes, Unit Armorer Training, and United States Army Basic Training.

Dent is currently working on a master’s in law at Liberty University School of Law. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice and Law Enforcement Administration from Colorado State University (CSU GLOBAL) and an Associate’s Degree in Criminal Justice from Pikes Peak Community College.
