The Denver coroner’s office has released its list of homicides in Denver for the first half of 2010 — sixteen deaths.
Some of those listed include straight-forward slayings , like the case of Douglass Singleton, who was allegedly killed by Peter Bellar in a marijuana transaction gone wrong. Others are more ambiguous, like the case of Marcus Duran, a teen killed in what was ultimately ruled a justifiable homicide. Look below to check out graphics near the scenes of the crimes (if you have problems seeing the images, click “View Larger Map”), as well as links to previous Westword coverage. Of which there’s been a lot.
