I’ve never owned a horse, or even horse-sat for that matter. So I can’t say for sure that I could properly maintain the nutrition of an equine if charged with such responsibility. If the horse didn’t like Ben & Jerry’s or the onion rings from My Brother’s Bar, he might…
The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office is looking for a penis — one attached to the guy pictured here. On September 12 at around 1:30 p.m., he entered the Koelbel Library, 5955 S. Holly Street in Centennial, and promptly gave others in the facility a chance to check out… his man…
Over the past few years, the ability of journalists (or any private citizen, for that matter) to access various forms of public records in Colorado has been greatly diminished, from police reports to divorce filings. The loss of access to court records has been particularly aggravating, a bit of bureaucratic…
Channel 4’s Rick Sallinger isn’t the only local TV type in New York City tracing the tracks of terror-suspect Najibullah Zazi. Eli Stokols, the go-to-guy for the two-headed Channel 31/The Deuce monster, is there as well. But the package above demonstrates why so few affiliates are willing to open…
If you’re reading this and you’re a horse, congratulations: You can read — which is a rare talent if you’re a horse (which you are). And considering how smart you are, what with that whole being-able-to-read thing, you should tell your horse buddies to stay out of Weld County –…
View Larger Map Yesterday, we told you about the early morning shooting of a woman in a parking lot on East 40th Avenue. Just in: A release from the Denver Coroner’s Office slightly amending the address where the crime took place, from 2535 E. 40th to 2530, an area captured…
Another day, another article in a major publication implying that Arthur Folsom, the Denver-area attorney representing terror suspect Najibullah Zazi, couldn’t be more doomed to disaster if his legal background consisted entirely of watching season three of Night Court on DVD. This time, the doubt is slathered on by the…
View Larger Map At around 3:30 a.m. this morning, a woman was reportedly shot and killed in a parking lot outside an AT&T building, near an area captured in the graphic above (if you have problems seeing the image, click “View Larger Map”). More than six hours later, the Denver…
Even before he has his first New York City court appearance, terror suspect Najibbullah Zazi, who was shipped out of Colorado on Friday (leaving us with his father, Mohammad, as our most prominent remaining Zazi), is paying dividends to NYC mayor Michael Bloomberg — a man who knows a little…
Since she took over as district attorney five years ago, Carol Chambers has let wrongdoers in the Eighteenth Judicial District know that she’s going to hold them accountable. She’s pursued lengthy habitual-criminal sentences for low-level offenders, gone after opposing attorneys and truth-fudging cops, and even criticized judges for taking (and…
News broke late last week that Kristen Parker, the former Rose Medical Center surgical rep accused of passing hepatitis C to victims like those at the center of “Going Viral,” Alan Prendergast’s recent feature, would plead guilty to a potpourri of charges against her — and by Friday afternoon, she’d…

Aurora’s Jesse Dennis Dimmick was already wanted for questioning in a murder when he went on the lam recently, eventually finding himself in a police chase with Kansas authorities. And while murder is a little too severe to label Dimmick a shmuck, what he did next more than qualifies. During…
Denver may not be the nationwide leader in homicides, thank goodness. But as demonstrated by our Mile High Murder archive, which has documented forty murders since the project was launched in late May, there’s plenty of violence to go around in these parts. Witness the story of 49-year-old Lilian Verdonkschot,…
Channel 4’s report that Kristen Parker will plead guilty to charges against her won’t go down as the shock of the century. Back in July, after all, she confessed to swiping drugs while working as a surgery tech at Rose Medical Center, where she’s said to have infected more than…
The pdf of the detention file released by the Justice Department in relation to the case against terror suspect Najibbullah Zazi was sent upside-down — but the evidence against Zazi looks ugly from any direction. As such, expect him to be officially sent packing to New York following a perfunctory…
Among the more intriguing and/or disturbing features on the City of Boulder’s web site is a crime map feature that allows residents and other curious Internet surfers to see precisely where a variety of offenses have occurred throughout the community in a given week — in today’s case, the one…
Don’t know if Anthony Bryant’s business cards list him as a “Sexually Violent Predator” — but that’s how the Denver Police Department refers to him in a release that asks for help from the public in tracking him down. Seems Bryant, who has a couple of stranger-on-stranger assaults under his…
Those reports we told you about earlier this morning suggesting that authorities would seek to transfer terror suspect Najibbullah Zazi to New York have proven accurate. The Justice Department confirms that Zazi has been indicted in New York’s Eastern District “on a charge of conspiracy to use weapons of mass…
Some stories could be set anywhere — but not this one. Okay, there’s this joint in Severance called Bruce’s Bar, and for more than a quarter century, it’s sponsored an annual bash called the Nut Run — so named because the main attractions are Rocky Mountain oysters. Men and women…
Among the more controversial ways Colorado is saving money during the current budget catastrophe involves the early release of prisoners — something state Attorney General John Suthers hates, as he made clear during a recent appearance on KHOW. Today, the first eight cons are slated to go free — a…
The Aurora Police Department is seeking the driver of a white Toyota Camry as part of the investigation into a fatal stabbing on the 1200 block of North Chambers Road near Hinkley High School early Sunday morning — but the person behind the wheel isn’t considered a suspect. Rather, he…
