Southwest Airlines opening crew base in Denver At trial, Sheehan questioned Denver Detective Robin Gray and discovered the victim's original description of the three suspects had vanished from his 2009 police report. But after further investigation by prosecutors and Sheehan, the Denver woman's original description came to light. The discovery of the missing evidence resulted in a mistrial. Montoya, already imprisoned on an unrelated charge, has since struck a plea agreement, resulting in no additional prison time. "It was exculpatory. She said, 'The guy I saw was Mexican,' " Sheehan said. "His last name is Montoya, but he looks like a typical white guy." On the witness stand, Gray described a 5-year-old electronic report system in which witnesses' first-blush descriptions are routinely overwritten to reflect descriptions of the suspects police later take into custody. "Obviously, we are going through some growing pains and still have problems," Gray said, according to court transcripts. "Once the detective gets it, as information is updated and clarified and verified, then the information ... in that computer system gets changed and updated and verified." Gray at first said there was no way to track those changes.

    Inside District 8 Councilman Christopher Herndon | Denver City Council | September 2017 A message from Councilman Herndon In August, City Council voted on several major legislative items that will have significant impacts on our city. There are two in particular I’d like to highlight here. Council approved Denver International Airport’s (DEN) $1.8 billion Great Hall renovation project. I am a strong supporter of the project for a number of reasons, the first being security. We know there are vulnerabilities with our current security configuration. All airports had to adjust to post- 9/11 needs and DEN did its best, but it’s time for a safer configuration to move passengers through the security screening process. The second reason is the need for modernization. The airport’s 1990s design isn’t aligned with today’s needs. Over the past few years, the airlines have given nearly 15 percent (over 158,000 square feet) of ticketing space back to the airport. With current technology, there simply isn’t a need for Councilman Chris Herndon and Bernie, the mascot from the the space and the airport is wise to modernize and find new Colorado Avalanche, lead riders in the annual Family Bike ways to use their space effectively. Lastly: efficiency and Parade. experience. The new equipment DEN will utilize for security is state-of-the-art and DEN will be the first airport in the country approve a $937 million bond package to go before voters this to implement it. I traveled to Europe to experience the new fall. I encourage voters to view the list of projects at technology already in use there and it will move passengers denvergov.org/2017GOBond and make an informed decision.

Less lethal force and control options may assist officers in performing these duties, but are not intended to substitute for the use of deadly force when it is reasonable and necessary. There is neither a requirement nor an expectation that officers attempt to use or exhaust less lethal options in situations requiring the use of deadly force. (2) LESS LETHAL OPTIONS The Denver Police Department authorizes the use of Electronic Restraints Devices (ERD)/TASER, Pepper Ball deployment systems, twelve (12) gauge and forty (40) mm specialty impact munitions to be carried by certain officers in their normal duty assignments. (3) LESS LETHAL WEAPONS DEFINITIONS a. Less lethal: A concept of planning and force application which meets an operational or tactical objective, with less potential for causing death or serious injury than conventional more lethal police tactics. b. Less lethal weapon: Any apprehension or restraint device approved for carry, which when used as designed and intended has less potential for causing death or serious injury than conventional police lethal weapons. Less lethal weapons include Electronic Restraints Devices (ERD/TASER), Pepper Ball deployment systems, less lethal twelve (12) gauge shotguns and forty (40) mm projectile systems and others as approved by the Chief of Police. c.

  • RUSSELL STRONG, Plaintiff, V
    Case 1:21-cv-00461 Document 1 Filed 02/16/21 USDC Colorado Page 1 of 49 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO Civil Action No. _______________ RUSSELL STRONG, Plaintiff, v. CITY AND COUNTY OF DENVER, a municipal entity; OFFICER DOE, an individual, Defendants. COMPLAINT AND JURY DEMAND ______________________________________________________________________ Plaintiff Russell Strong, by and through his attorneys Matthew J. Cron, Felipe Bohnet-Gomez, and Siddhartha H. Rathod of RATHOD | MOHAMEDBHAI LLC, respectfully alleges as follows: I. INTRODUCTION George Floyd was killed by Minneapolis police officers on May 25, 2020. His death sparked global protests against police violence and systemic racism. In Denver, the George Floyd Protests (the “Protests”) began on May 28, 2020 and continued day after day for weeks. Although the protesters were overwhelmingly peaceful, the Denver Police Department (“DPD”) and officers from collaborating jurisdictions under DPD’s authority and control (collectively, “Officers in Denver”) responded with unimaginable force. Case 1:21-cv-00461 Document 1 Filed 02/16/21 USDC Colorado Page 2 of 49 Undeterred by constitutional constraints, Officers in Denver routinely and customarily employed substantial force, including potentially deadly force, against protesters without any legitimate law enforcement purpose, without issuing warnings, and without providing any opportunity for protesters to protect themselves from harm. Officers in Denver sadistically fired their “less-lethal”1 weaponry at the most vulnerable body parts of protesters to deliberately inflict maximum harm. And they did. Scores of civilians were badly injured during the Protests; many ended up needing surgery or other emergency medical services. Hundreds of complaints arising out of the Protests have been filed with DPD’s internal affairs bureau, and over twenty individuals have already sought relief in federal court.

  • Volunteers in Policing Unit
    DENVER POLICE DEPARTMENT VOLUNTEERS IN POLICING UNIT DENVER POLICE DEPARTMENT VOLUNTEERS IN POLICING General Information: Who is considered a Denver Police Volunteer? Any person who performs an unpaid volunteer service for the Denver Police Department is considered a volunteer. This includes groups and organizations who have been in existence prior to the formation of the Volunteers in Policing Unit (i.e. Cop Shop, Citizen’s Police Academy, Storefront volunteers, CPAAA, etc) All volunteers are subject to the guidelines and agreements set out in this handbook. What does it mean to be a Denver Police Volunteer? People who successfully complete the application, background check, and interview process, become unpaid “at will” employees of the Denver Police Department. That means that you are an employee of the police department but without the rights of paid employees. This is the typical agreement between volunteers and the organizations that they work for. Does the Volunteer Program (VIP) have a mission statement? Yes, the VIP mission statement is: The mission of the Denver Police Department’s Volunteers in Policing Unit is to deliver high quality public safety support services to the sworn and civilian employees of the Denver Police Department and the citizens of Denver in order to provide an exceptional safe and healthy environment. Who are the people I should know? It is important that you know the Chief of Police. His name is Gerry Whitman. There are two Deputy Chiefs, and four Division Chiefs. In time you might want to know which Chief you work for, but for now, knowing the main chief is fine.
