On May 25, 2012, four people were gunned down in broad daylight on Bruce Randolph Avenue — and two of them, Justin O’Donnell (seen here) and Deon Rudd, died of their injuries. Now, two men — Marquise Davis and Denzel Richardson — have pleaded guilty in relation to this tragedy…
In a safety advisory issued early this morning, the CU-Boulder police have revealed a disturbing and unusual potential crime. According to the release, a man may have been sexually assaulted by another man late last night in a room at Folsom Field, home of the CU Buffs football team and…
If the accusations pressed by the Denver District Attorney’s Office are accurate, Celia Montoya is guilty not only of serious crimes, but a betrayal of trust that’s positively off the charts. Montoya allegedly held down a ten-year-old family member while her much older boyfriend, Eugene Fernandez, sexually assaulted her. Learn…
Since when does likening someone to Steve Aoki constitute fighting words? Hell, given that Aoki is a superstar DJ with a huge following in these parts — witness his jam-packed January show at the Fillmore — such a comparison could be considered a compliment. But very early this morning, an…
Most burglars steal things based on their resale value — what they can get in the underground market. But a chosen few swipe items for more personal reasons. Joey Gallegos appears to fit in the latter category. He’s been arrested and charged for snatching more than 350 pieces of women’s…

It’s a bizarre story: The victim of a car heist and her boyfriend see the stolen vehicle and confront the alleged thief as they’re crossing the street — leading to a brutal punch-out and a broken larynx before an arrest takes place. Adding to the oddity is the accused: Davien…
Update: Yesterday, we told you about the arrest of Matthew Burnett on suspicion of first-degree murder after police found the body of a still-unidentified man in the middle of a Broomfield street; see our previous coverage below. Now, an arrest affidavit has been released — and according to the document,…
A hearing today in the Aurora theater shooting case may have set a record for the shortest court proceeding ever. It took less than sixty seconds this morning for a judge to order New York-based Fox News journalist Jana Winter to return to Colorado on September 30 for a continuation…
Update: We’ve just received the mug shot of suspect Daniel Abeyta. See it after our previous coverage. Earlier this month, Sandra Roskilly celebrated an incredible milestone — a 200-pound weight loss. A little more than a week later, Roskilly, 47, was dead — allegedly shot by Daniel Abeyta, her neighbor,…
We usually think of street shootings taking place late at night, when darkness cloaking the figures is illuminated only by muzzle flashes. But yesterday, guns blasted in broad daylight, at one of the busiest parts of the city: Colfax between Broadway and Lincoln. As a result, both the State Capitol…
The Colorado Department of Corrections has just announced the results of an audit intended to determine if any people on parole were mistakenly released early or sentenced incorrectly — and the numbers aren’t exactly reassuring. Nearly 2,000 cases were designated for judicial review, out of 8,000-plus, and of those, 267,…
Update: We’re just receiving reports that Von Miller’s appeal of his four-game suspension for allegedly violating the NFL’s drug policy has been delayed because of “complications.” This is presumably a reference to his arrest over the weekend on a bench warrant active since shortly after he skipped out on a…
Earlier this week, we told you about the shocking story of William “Billy” Otto, who allegedly killed two teenagers said to have been planning a blackmail plot that hinged on a video showing the Thornton man asking to perform oral sex on one of them; see our previous coverage below…
For the better part of a year, we’ve been covering the sad story of Dylan Redwine, a thirteen year old whose remains were found in June, many months after he went missing. Since then, much attention has focused on Mark Redwine, Dylan’s dad, who the teen had been visiting –…
Rodolfo Cendejas certainly fits the pattern of a serial sexual abuser, as one family understands all too well. According to the 18th Judicial District DA’s office, Cendejas, 48, molested a young Aurora girl who’d barely reached her teens, before moving on to her younger sister — and then committing the…
Back in April, Felix Trujillo became the first person ever to escape from Denver’s new jail — with a little help from Deputy Matthew Andrews, who swore he’d only aided the inmate because of threats to his family. A few weeks later, Trujillo publicly claimed Andrews actually assisted him because…
People taking photos of themselves using cell phones probably happens more often these days than folks actually using the devices to call someone. (Texting, of course, is another story.) And it’s nearly as commonplace for such pics to be photo bombed, either purposefully or accidentally. It’s not every day, though,…
An alleged prostitute named William Head? It’s true — and Head’s arrest affidavit, on view below in its entirety, makes his surname seem wholly appropriate. But the Denver District Attorney’s Office maintains that the offense of which Head has been accused can’t be classified as a victimless crime. That’s because…
In May 2012, we published a post featuring photos and information about twenty Colorado sex offenders who’d failed to register according to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation website that tracks this information. Then, recently, we checked each of those twenty people were no longer on the roster or had been…
Eli Traufield’s Facebook photo gallery alternates sexy shots like this one with family pics featuring his son. But most of the posts tout the healing abilities of marijuana — appropriate given that he’s listed as an owner of Fort COllins ORganics and Earthly Elements, a dispensary. Problem is, Earthly Elements…
