LETTERS

more hesitant after seeing regular grammar and spelling errors in the LTV, the latest being the subject headline, the front page headline at that, which clearly had no or poor editorial review since the text should have obviously read “County.” Journalism today isn’t what it was in the glory days. I’ll subscribe when the LTV becomes a truly quality newspaper.

Housing questions department at Swedish Medical Center on the evening of March 25, where he waived his Miranda rights and shared information with the police, documents say.

Referring to your March 23 article by Ellis Arnold and published in the Douglas County newspapers, the idiom “the devil’s in the details” has been validated by our Douglas County commissioners who have met the devil and voted 2 to 1 approving the Ulyssses Development Group (UDG) application for a zoning change to permit the development of a 220-unit low-income housing project.

In this interview with detectives, Maclaren allegedly said his family would have had to vacate their apartment on March 25, and they had nowhere to live afterwards because they had no money, documents say.

He was allegedly previously employed at Hospital Shared Services and worked frequently with the homeless population. According to authorities he said being homeless was a miserable life.

Maclaren allegedly began planning to kill his family approximately 10 days ago, according to police

But wait, Commissioner George Teal is not one to be easily deceived and has taken the following actions after his Jan. 10 vote. First, he checked and is still working on having been told (hard to believe) that the UDG property does not meet Section 8 subsidized voucher quali cations.

Next, he then called the UDG team “on the carpet” (his words) based on much of my research accusing UDG of presenting false and misleading information. He found, for example, that an investor who lends $100 can earn $96 in federal tax credits in 10 years. Keep in mind that these great low hanging investor fruits are not available to residents such as you and me, but are only available to large institutional investors such as the recently collapsed Silicon Valley Bank, SVB. ( is is true.) Having clari ed the use of tax credits for nancing UDG is now caught in the cross hairs of having lied during their presentation when UDG adamantly alleged that the insultingly misnamed “Workforce Housing” project is not government subsidized. e term “low-income housing” is considered politically documents. Investigators say he bought an ax, two large trash cans and a hand saw at Home Depot and stored these items in his apartment.

At approximately 6:03 p.m. on the day of the murders, police say they received a call from Maclaren stating that he thought his wife and daughter had been killed with a hammer.

When o cers entered the residence at 901 Englewood Parkway, they found the two victims inside large trash cans in the living room/ kitchen area. According to police, both victims had substantial visible injuries.

Maclaren allegedly struck his wife and daughter in the head that morning with the ax while they were sitting on the couch, making them incorrect and avoided by peddlers of rental “a ordable housing” or “attainable housing” projects, however, low-income is properly named when it’s subsidized by the LowIncome Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) as quoted in March 23 article by Connor Larr, a UDG partner who clari ed that the applied LIHTC is a federal tax credit.

Upon my request, Commissioner Teal requested the county attorney to either validate or nullify UDG’s assertion that Workforce Housing is not subsidized in the context of the following (lookup MTSP): unconscious, according to police documents. He then allegedly struck each in the head with the ax two more times. e a davit says he then sawed their arms and legs o to make them t in the trash cans.

Englewood detectives, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation Crime Scene Unit and the Arapahoe County Coroner’s O ce conducted a homicide investigation at the scene of the crime.

Maclaren allegedly said he does not regret killing his family because he “knows they are in a better place.”

Police documents say Maclaren being held without a bond. He appeared in Arapahoe County District Court this week to hear the charges led against him.

“HUD refers to projects nanced with tax exempt housing bonds for low-income residential rental development projects as Multifamily Tax Subsidy Projects (MTSPs).” e county attorney, however, is now not responding because of the ensuing legal appeal by residents (to include myself) to reverse this zoning decision. However, if it walks and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck, and the lesson learned is “Oh, what a tangled web we weave when rst we practice to deceive.”
