Brauchler closes out tenure as DA For eight years, he helmed state’s largest district to praise, criticism

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Former DA George Brauchler packs up his office roughly one week before leaving office.

His time helming Colorado’s largest judicial district began and ended with shootings that horrified the nation.

Cases like those — the 2012 Aurora theater shooting and the STEM School Highlands Ranch shooting of 2019 — left former 18th

Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler with memories that haunt him.

Douglas County School District interim Superintendent Corey Wise is urging a speedier timeline for vaccinating workers in education, but stopped short of saying whether the state’s recent pause on teacher vaccinations was the right or wrong decision.

Wise said he was an adamant advocate for moving teachers and Wise school staff further up in the state’s vaccine distribution plan. He celebrated when that happened and announced that the district expected to begin vaccinating teachers and staff the week of Jan. 4.

Then state officials told health agencies to pause vaccinating educators until people 70 and older had been inoculated. The news meant teachers may not receive shots until March. Wise hopes that changes.

Bennet gets up-close look at Sandstone Ranch U.S. senator also filled in on I-25 Gap project’s progress during visit to county

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet spent a recent morning visiting Sandstone Ranch in southwest Douglas County and learning about the 18mile stretch of I-25 known as the Gap that is under construction.

“It’s really a fundamental part of doing my job,” Bennet said about of the Jan. 11 visit to the county.

Bennet — a Democrat who has represented Colorado in the Senate since 2009 — added that the idea for a recent conservation bill he introduced, called the Outdoor Restoration Force Act, came from a tour just like this.

“At Sandstone what stood out was the vision of Douglas County … to preserve that iconic open space so close to where so many people live,” Bennet said. “That’s a very, very rare thing to see in our country.”

Bennet was also briefed on construction progress for the portion of I-25 between Castle Rock and Monument. The Gap project was made possible in part by a $65 million infrastructure grant that he and former Sen. Cory Gardner

helped secure in 2018.

“This is the result of a collaborative effort to fund this project,” he said. “It’s wonderful to have the chance to be on the ground and be briefed about how the implementation is actually going.”

Bennet learned that the project is, so far, ahead of schedule, with 6 miles completed and more than

half of the paving finished.

“Everyone is focused on getting this thing done as fast as we possibly can,” said Shoshana Lew, executive director of CDOT. Commissioners Lora Thomas and Abe Laydon, who accompanied the senator on his visits in the county, answered questions and added comments on the significance of the I-25 project.

Thomas, who was a state trooper from 1984 to 2003, used to patrol this section of interstate.

“In 1987 a state trooper was killed right at the county line … and I arrested the driver that killed him. And then just before this project started there were two more state troopers that were killed,” she said. “When I became a commissioner this became my personal goal to get the funding to get this road done.”

insurrection in Washington, D.C., where a pro-Trump mob occupied the U.S. Capitol for several hours.

“What we need to do in order to reject this is work together in a bipartisan way to be honest with the people we represent,” he said.

“Even when that’s hard or we disagree.”

He added that he thinks it’s time for President Donald Trump to step down from office.

“I think that he is unfit for office and I just think we’d all be better off if he moved on,” he said.

Bennet added that he values his relationship with Douglas County, a conservative stronghold.

“I have treasured the working relationship that I’ve had with the Douglas County commissioners and the work we do together,” he said. “The fact that I’m a Democrat and they’re Republicans isn’t particularly relevant.”

State legislator ‘surprised’ to find Trump supporters behind Capitol violence Rep. Mark Baisley’s social media post had connected insurrection to Antifa

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A state legislator who publicly called into question whether it was truly supporters of the president who stormed the U.S. Capitol Jan. 6 now acknowledges that most of the people who have been arrested for the crime were in fact supporters of Donald Trump.

“I was surprised and disappointed,” said state Rep. Mark Baisley, R-Roxborough Park, during a Jan. 15 interview with Colorado Community Media.

“But it turns out most of the people who have been arrested, (were) supporters of Trump.”

Baisley Baisley’s original statements, posted to Facebook the day of the insurrection, asserted that the actions seen at the Capitol appeared to match those of the far-left, anti-fascist movement Antifa, rather than “Trump patriots.” This theory, for which no credible evidence has been presented, took hold with many Trump supporters in the days following the insurrection.

“It does not make any sense to me that Trump patriots would storm the U.S. Capitol to interrupt a congressional challenge to the electoral college results,” Baisley wrote at the time. “I hope that many arrests are made and identities of the sponsors revealed.”

Baisley represents House District 39, which encompasses Teller County and much of unincorporated Douglas County, including part of Highlands Ranch.

Shortly after he posted the statement, a screenshot of it was shared by a 9News reporter and an outpouring of critical comments followed, with several people voicing interest in a recall attempt.

Darien Wilson, former Democratic candidate for commissioner in Douglas County, was one of the people to respond to Baisley’s comments, calling him a “conspiracy theorist.”

The Federal Bureau of Investigation and minority leader of the U.S. House of Representatives, Republican Kevin McCarthy, have both released statements saying there has not been any evidence that those who stormed the Capitol were anything other than Trump supporters.

“Some say the riots were caused

by Antifa — there is absolutely no evidence of that,” McCarthy said in a Jan. 13 hearing in the House.

“And conservatives should be the first to say so.”

Baisley told Colorado Community Media he had not previously been aware of these statements.

“It still doesn’t make sense to me, but evidently the facts are showing that that was the case,” he said.

Baisley went on to say he still believes there could be evidence of non-Trump supporters at the insurrection.

Baisley, who was elected in 2018 to represent the district, said he was surprised that his “benign observation” received so much attention.

“Why is it important what I believe?” he said.

In a follow-up post on Facebook Jan. 9, Baisley characterized his comments on the insurrection as “an open quandary rather than an assertion.” He went on to doubledown on the claims that Antifa could be involved.

Both posts received hundreds of comments and interactions, many of which showed support and agreement with the idea.

Baisley said it’s likely that a lot of folks who already may have believed in this idea “took my comment as a validation.”

“But I don’t hate them for that,” he said. “Why would anybody hate someone for jumping to a reasonable conclusion.”

Baisley said he doesn’t believe that his comments contributed to the larger conspiracy theory that took hold in the country that there were bad actors dressed up as Trump supporters in the crowd that day.

“I gave my reaction, I did not advance an idea, I asserted no specific allegations,” he said.

He went on to say that the spread of misinformation can be dangerous, especially in the case of people believing that the recent election was rigged.

“If what people believe are simply conspiracy theories that don’t cause some real significant reaction, like insurrection, then so what?” he said. “But if they incite violence, incite people to go storm the capitol, then obviously it does matter a lot.”

However, he said he doesn’t see how believing that Antifa followers were perpetrators at the Capitol insurrection could have a negative impact.

“I don’t think it’s dangerous that people would believe that Antifa …

I don’t see that there’s any danger in people believing any theory about who it was that attacked the Capitol,” he said.

He said he was considering adding a new post clarifying these latest thoughts.

“I stand by what I said then, but I guess it probably would make sense.

It probably is time for an update to that,” he said. “Now that I’ve got the perspective of nine or 10 days.”

over groups, but it’s being included with those groups,” Wise said to Colorado Community Media on Jan. 11.

Ensuring teachers and district staff have access to vaccinations is critical to returning students to inperson learning, providing relief to working parents and stabilizing the local economy, he said.

The district had given its healthcare providers Excel sheets denoting employees who would qualify under Phase 1 of the state’s plan, Wise said.

“We were doing our best to send out invitations to everyone,” he said.

Wise said changes in messaging about distribution plans added “complication in an already complicated environment.” More than 40 school nurse consultants, who qualify under Phase 1A of the state distribution plan, received doses on Jan. 6, but the district had to halt plans to bring teachers and other school staff into the mix.

Meanwhile, educators were being vaccinated at charter school STEM School Highlands Ranch.

A spokeswoman said staff at the school arranged appointments with Littleton Adventist Hospital before the state issued guidance about prioritizing people 70 and older.

The hospital first contacted the school on Dec. 31 for lists of staff members and began contacting STEM employees individually on Jan. 4. When the hospital did not

tance “can’t be overstated,” Leyba said.

“It was certainly disappointing to get our hopes up and then hear a couple weeks later that it wasn’t actually going to happen in January,” she said. “The communication confusion was the biggest disappointment.”

While Leyba would like to see teachers vaccinated by spring break, she’s bracing members for a longer timeline, in which they receive first doses in late March and second doses in April, “and then we only have one month left of school.”

“I think we should keep our expectations tempered,” she said.

Leyba informally surveyed some members who generally felt comfortable returning to hybrid learning, she said, but they are skeptical that full in-person learning would last if the district goes that route this semester.

“As much as they want it, they realize that when we pack that many older kids, who transmit this disease like adults, in a classroom, the biggest concern is that it won’t be sustainable,” Leyba said.

Wise stressed during recent school board meetings that he does not believe schools are a significant source of COVID-19’s spread — that most exposures among students and staff came from outside school buildings.

The district is entering “a new environment,” though, and will closely monitor spread of the new COVID mutation now circulating in the state, Wise said. He’s not sure what that might mean for containing the virus within district buildings.

Leyba said she too will keep a close eye on the new mutation’s spread, and whether that means more potential for spread within schools.

The district has not been routinely testing students, an age group that’s often asymptomatic, she said, signaling to her there’s little evidence proving or disproving whether most exposures came from outside buildings.

She’s optimistic about data from at-home tests for students promised by the state, but in light of the vaccine pause, will believe that when she sees it, Leyba said.

“I guess I feel burned,” she said.

Open house to focus on Crowfoot Valley Road improvements STAFF REPORT

The Town of Castle Rock will hold a virtual open house later this month to discuss Crowfoot Valley Road traffic-control options.

Quarantine protocols change in Douglas County School District Students can now test for COVID-19 to potentially end quarantine early

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Quarantine protocols for the Douglas County School District have changed again during the COVID-19 pandemic under new state guidance.

The district will now ask people exposed to the virus to quarantine for 10 days instead of 14, according to a Jan. 12 announcement.

Although students and staff could end quarantine at 10 days, the district is asking people to continue monitoring themselves for symptoms for a full two weeks, in line with a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendation.

Interim Superintendent Corey Wise has previously urged shrink-

Both groups should keep six feet away from others when possible, regularly wash hands and stay home when sick, according to the district.

Douglas County Federation President Kallie Leyba said that part of the announcement stood out to her. The local teachers union leader also encouraged teachers to consider wearing both a KN95 mask and shield.

For elementary school teachers, who work around the district’s youngest learners, it can also be difficult to keep children socially distanced throughout their day, she said. Those teachers should try to maintain six feet from students if they can’t consistently keep students six feet from one another, she said.

“It’s unrealistic to expect kids to sit in their seat and not move around for six hours a day,” she said.

BRAUCHLER FROM PAGE 1

Brauchler’s hands-on management of big cases, along with his overall approach to criminal justice in a diverse, politically divided district also forged reputations.

Brauchler, a Republican, is a lawand-order man, skilled prosecutor, trusted friend, and some believe, destined for higher office. To others, he’s a punitive district attorney, partisan politician, and blind to racial disparities in criminal justice.

Arapahoe County Democrats “are happy to see George Brauchler go,” party chair Kristin Mallory said.

“He definitely doesn’t represent Arapahoe County,” she said.

Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock, a Republican, hopes this is far from the last Colorado has seen of Brauchler.

“I’d like to see that guy as my congressman,” Spurlock said.

Brauchler’s successor, John Kellner, asked him to stay on as special prosecutor for the upcoming STEM School shooting trial. He’ll continue serving part-time on the case, but as of Jan. 12 his eight years as district attorney are over.

One week before leaving office, the term-limited DA stood surrounded by years’ worth of files making their way into moving boxes. Brauchler has packed up and left. Where he’s going remains to be seen.

Big cases, diverse district

State Rep. Tom Sullivan came to know Brauchler in 2012 as the recently elected district attorney took on prosecuting the Aurora theater shooter. Sullivan’s son Alex died on his 27th birthday in the rampage that left 11 more dead.

For more than three years, Sullivan’s family worked closely with Brauchler while the case raged on. Since then Sullivan said he’s stepped back to look at the bigger picture of Brauchler’s career.

“He’s pretty much shown that he is a party-over-person legislator of the people,” Sullivan said.

Sullivan, a Democrat, went on from the shooting to flip House District 37 in 2018 and today represents portions of Centennial and unincorporated Arapahoe County.

The two men found themselves at political odds numerous times since, Sullivan said. Sullivan ran for office intent on addressing gun violence

and took note when Brauchler advocated against gun control measures he pursued, Sullivan said.

They found some common ground when lawmakers repealed Colorado’s death penalty in 2020.

Brauchler, a Parker resident, has been a staunch supporter of capital punishment, calling it a critical tool for holding the “worst of the worst” accountable. He still thinks the repeal should have been sent to a vote of the people rather than decided at the Capitol.

“They were gutless,” Brauchler said.

Sullivan had pleaded with his fellow lawmakers to keep capital punishment on the books.

Despite their shared support on the issue, Brauchler’s unsuccessful pursuit of it in the Aurora theater shooting case remains a point of contention for Sullivan, who is convinced the sole dissenting juror’s mind was made up “on Day 1.” He faults Brauchler’s team for not detecting that.

“They didn’t get the death penalty qualified jury on the case. I mean, it’s as simple as that,” Sullivan said.

That gun violence bookended Brauchler’s tenure — beginning with Aurora, ending with STEM School, and the 2013 Arapahoe High School

shooting in-between — is not lost on Sullivan.

The legislator wants a proactive approach to preventing gun violence, he said, but says Brauchler would rather “throw the book at them” once someone commits gun violence.

“He certainly hasn’t made us any safer. He certainly hasn’t done anything to stop that from happening in our community,” Sullivan said.

Brauchler has been asked why his community and surrounding areas have been hit with multiple cases of horrific gun violence. After eight years, the question still confounds him.

His community is filled with good people, he said, adding “I don’t think we are doing anything wrong.”

“I don’t know,” he said. “I truly don’t know. I want to say it’s a function of coincidence.”

‘What he’s built for’

Kellner, also a Republican, said the 18th has taken measures to curb gun violence, like through its “robust juvenile diversion program” that helps reduce recidivism rates and monitoring illegal gun sales.

The new district attorney first met Brauchler more than a decade ago at a military training course. When Brauchler asked him to join the 18th in 2012 and help start up a cold case unit, Kellner said “it was a no brainer.”

As a boss, Brauchler didn’t micromanage his staff, Kellner said. He laid out expectations and set deputies free to make decisions “that we thought were best for our community.”

Kellner said some of his predecessor’s successes were building out problem-solving courts and launching a veteran treatment court, ventures he expected some district attorneys might pass up.

“He was willing to take those chances,” Kellner said.

Kellner also credited Brauchler as one of the people who influenced what his approach will be to highprofile cases.

“When there is something so impactful in the community, it’s up to the district attorney to be heavily

involved and that often means trying the case,” Kellner said.

Working in the courtroom’s trenches also gives district attorneys crucial insight to advise prosecutors on hard cases, Kellner said.

Mallory, the Arapahoe County Democrats chair, said Brauchler missed the mark on some cases that gained widespread attention.

The district attorney’s office announced in January that Aurora police officers who handcuffed a Black family, including young children, at gunpoint after mistaking their vehicle as stolen will not face charges.

“We know JD 18 has refused to prosecute the cops in Aurora who put Black children face-down on hot pavement,” she said. “I think that reflects a failure.”

The office’s report on the incident described the officers’ actions as intolerable and in need of further investigation but not criminal.

Mallory believes Brauchler lacks “a full understanding of how white supremacy plays a role in our criminal justice system.”

Brauchler better represented the district’s other three counties, all Republican strongholds, Mallory said, while Arapahoe County is a working-class community. It’s diverse in terms of culture, religion and race, she said. Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln counties make up the remainder of the district.

Being “tough on crime” is also expensive, she said, as is pursuing the death penalty. In that regard, Brauchler was not financially responsible “or even a conservative DA for us,” she said.

In a word, she describes his approach to being district attorney as “punitive.” People in Arapahoe County need restorative justice that focuses on “root cause of crime,” she said.

Brauchler has been critical of rehabilitation programs but refutes any notion he’s against them.

“You’re talking also to the district attorney of an office that has the largest, most successful SEE BRAUCHLER, P7

juvenile diversion program in the country,” he said. “You’re not talking to someone who is opposed to meaningful paths away from incarceration.”

He said “an increasingly progressive and forgiveness first” state Legislature is taking tools away from law enforcement and making rehabilitation programs too lenient.

Brauchler said the justice system must have predictable and meaningful sentences for offenders, and before that, communities that take responsibility for socioeconomic conditions leading people to crime.

Spurlock hopes Brauchler reaches Congress. He also hopes Brauchler becomes district attorney of the 23rd Judicial District, which will be Colorado’s newest in decades when

Douglas, Lincoln and Elbert counties break off from the 18th in 2024.

“That’s what he’s built for,” Spurlock said.

He has made many after-hours call to Brauchler when crisis struck.

The district attorney stood by him as a guide and personal friend during the most traumatic moments for Spurlock since he became sheriff, Spurlock said.

When a gunman opened fire on several of his deputies, killing Deputy Zackari Parrish on New Year’s Eve in 2017, Brauchler rushed to the scene, arriving shortly after law enforcement confirmed Parrish’s death.

“The emotion that was there in the parking lot, the sense of loss and grief,” Brauchler said.

The district attorney was outof-state when the STEM School shooting unfolded, but immediately boarded a plane home when Spurlock phoned with the news.

“He was not afraid to get out of bed in the middle of the night and come to a major scene and be there and provide guidance and support, and law enforcement loved him for that,” Spurlock said.

Brauchler put an emphasis on getting justice for victims, Spurlock said, in the courtroom and in other stages of criminal justice as well.

Spurlock credited Brauchler as instrumental in opening the Unified Metropolitan Forensic Crime Laboratory in 2018, hailed as one solution to shortening evidence-processing backlogs at the state lab.

Brauchler was also guided by “what was just and right,” Spurlock said, and didn’t prosecute based on politics. He called Brauchler “one of the fairest guys that I had ever come across in the DA (role).”

“We never had the discussion of politics, of well, what is the political landscape of this if we do this or that,” Spurlock said.

‘Blink of an eye’

The district has had “more than its share of big cases,” Brauchler said. The work never feels done.

Leaving the job was surreal.

“You take for granted how that constant pressure and that constant vigilance to stay on top of cases,” he said, “makes the time go by in the blink of an eye.”

Brauchler, 51, says he doesn’t know what his next job will be. Staying on the STEM case, a “personal and professional” priority for him, made committing to a new role difficult.

He might join a law firm. Holding elected office still interests him too, although the political climate today feels “super negative and so, super tribal,” Brauchler said, and he’s keenly aware Colorado is less purple than it once was. For now, he’s weighing his options.

“I am just old enough now to recognize that my unbridled ambition,” he said, “needs to be tempered.”

Douglas County commissioners sworn in

Commissioner Lora Thomas is sworn into office. She is accompanied by her significant other Tony Fabian and her niece Cara Fabian.

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Commissioners George Teal and Lora Thomas were sworn in during an in-person and virtual event hosted by Douglas County Jan. 12.

Teal, who was elected in November, represents District 2, which includes Castle Rock, Castle Pines and many of the unincorporated portions of the county. Teal was a Castle Rock town council member

for six years.

“It’s been a really long job interview for me this past year,” he said. “There’s been a lot of words. For me, the time for words being spoken is actually coming to an end… the time for listening begins now.”

Teal was accompanied by his wife and two children during the swearing-in ceremony.

Thomas, who was reelected in November, first came into office in 2017.

niece stood beside her while she took the oath.

“The significance of what we do here today is not about celebrating a political victory, but instead it’s the affirmation of a free people who make free

choices,” she said. “I am very grateful for the faith and the confidence of those free people.”

Thomas, who represents District 3 — made up mostly of Highlands Ranch — is now the chairperson

for the board of county commissioners.

“I can’t for a single moment contemplate anything less than my full devotion in serving those people to the utmost of my efforts and my abilities,” she said.

Polis blasts lack of vaccine influx Trump administration ‘lied’ about existence of reserve, governor says

BY SETH KLAMANN THE DENVER GAZETTE

Top federal officials, including Vice President Mike Pence and President Donald Trump, “spoke out of turn” and lied to Colorado and other states about an incoming influx of vaccines that didn’t exist, Gov. Jared Polis said Jan. 15.

“I come before you extremely disappointed that we were lied to with plans of the administration to release reserve doses that were to be second doses of the vaccine,” Polis said.

“There is no influx of doses, contrary to a call we had with the vice president (and) the secretary of health three days ago where they informed us we would be getting additional quantity available to the state.”

Colorado had been scheduled to receive 210,000 doses the week of Jan. 18, the governor said, significantly more than the 79,000 doses that state is now planning to receive and the 70,000 doses that is typical.

That influx would’ve allowed the state to accelerate its efforts to vaccinate its older population, an effort Polis says is now expected to again be 70% finished by the end of February.

The morning of Jan. 15, the Washington Post reported the supposed federal reserve of doses did not exist, despite reassurances from Alex Azar, the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.

Polis said he found out about that “nonexistent” stockpile in a Jan. 15 call with Gen. Gustave Perna, who’s working on the federal distribution effort.

The 79,000-dose shipment the state is scheduled to receive the week of Jan. 18 is still a slight improvement from previous allocations, and Polis said he’s anticipating between 90,000

and 100,000 doses per week through the first three weeks of February.

He expressed hope the incoming administration will live up to its promise of 100 million doses distributed within Joe Biden’s first 100 days in office.

The supply might be further bolstered if the federal government authorizes another vaccine candidate, made by Johnson & Johnson.

Unlike the current vaccines, from Moderna and Pfizer, this latest inoculation is expected to be delivered in a single dose, instead of two.

If there’s a silver lining

to the feds “lying” about Colorado’s allocation, it’s that the state had been planning “conservatively” based on its previous allocations, Polis said, so this significant scale down won’t necessarily affect the state’s previously laid plans.

Still, had the state received that larger shipment, it would have allowed providers to inoculate roughly half of the state’s unvaccinated population of adults over the age of 69.

That, in turn, would’ve accelerated the state’s ability to get to those older than 64, whom Polis announced earlier this week will be next in line.

Before his news conference, the governor replied to a tweet from 9News reporter Chris Vanderveen.

Vanderveen had linked to a story from the Washington Post, which reported that despite promises that more doses would be shipped next week, there was no such reserve and that all states would be receiving their previously scheduled allotments.

Polis tweeted that he was “shocked” that the state had been “lied to.”

Polis and other officials in Colorado have said the state is ready to distribute more vaccines; the obstacle is the limited supply of the doses.

The governor said he understood why older Coloradans were clamoring to get the vaccine and frustrated by the wait times, but he said the state was receiving fewer than 80,000 doses a week currently and that there were 535,000 people in the current, 70-plus years old priority.

STEM School shooting trial again delayed Trial might take place outside of courtroom amid pandemic

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The forthcoming trial in the STEM School Highlands Ranch shooting case has been pushed back by months again during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Devon Erickson, 20, is now scheduled to begin trial on May 24 for his suspected role in the shooting that left senior Kendrick Castillo dead and eight more students injured.

Previous trial dates — including February, September and July trials

— were also pushed back because of COVID-19.

Erickson faces numerous charges, including felony murder, in connection with the shooting. He pleaded not guilty in January 2020. Alec McKinney, 17, pleaded guilty to similar charges in February and was sentenced to life in prison plus 38 year, with the possibility of parole after 40 years in July.

One more key logistic remains unclear: whether the trial will take place at the courthouse in Castle Rock. Amid continued social distancing requirements, the court may need to find an off-site location to accommodate pandemic restrictions, District Court Judge Theresa Slade said during a Jan. 15 hearing.

The defendant’s next court appearance will be in April, when attorneys

will gather with Slade to further discuss details of holding the proceedings during the public health crisis.

A spokeswoman for the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office said the district has not held hearings at another venue to date during the pandemic.

Attorneys also spent much of the Jan. 15 hearing debating whether the public defender’s office, which is representing McKinney, and the district attorney’s office could provide medical records for McKinney to Erickson’s defense attorneys, which they had subpoenaed.

Defense attorney Julia Stancil said the team is aware of roughly 2,100 pages of records provided to the prosecution by McKinney’s attorney Ara Ohanian.

The records could include in-

formation about his mental state and motive. They would also detail where he received mental health treatment or was prescribed medications, she said, arguing all was information that might aid prosecutors in preparation for trial.

“Mr. McKinney is the key and main witness against my client,” Stancil said.

Stancil said the district attorney’s office was unsure if it could provide the defense with the records because of protective order but that Slade could rule on the matter to clear way for handing over the documents.

Slade told the defense to conduct more “due diligence” and first attempt to interview Ohanian’s client or subpoena the records from the various agencies that created them.

Animal adoption agencies seeing a doggone frenzy

ecause of the pandemic, which of the following is way up nationwide?

Average per-person daily intake of calories from sugar?

QUIET Trips to the liquor DESPERATION store?

Pet adoption?

I don’t have the facts in front of me about calories and alcohol, just the assumption that both are true.

There are facts, however, that show Craig Marshall pet adoption in the Smith past year was not only way up but highly competitive.

Adoption agencies all over the country are experiencing something unique: They’re running out of pets; some have seen double the requests for dogs since the pandemic came along.

This is good news, but it comes with some bad news and an advisory (from me).

According to the Better Busi-

ness Bureau, “The number of complaints about fraudulent and nonexistent breeders has never been higher.”

At times, humans are an industriously evil lot.

If there’s a market value in deception, mankind will find it.

Dogs, cats, birds, fish, and even ferrets are “going like hotcakes,” said one operator of an animal shelter in Maryland.

Why? I don’t have room to go through all of the reasons why Harry enhances my life and makes it worth waking up every morning and chewing (as Emo Phillips said) through the leather straps.

Today, 35.7 million Americans live alone. When quarantined, that’s a lot of solitary souls trying to make the best of it — psychologically.

I can’t think of anything better than spending the day with Harry.

I’d take him over Audrey Hepburn.

And that would have been true before “social distancing.”

In the absence of a family, Harry is my son. His well-being is my well-being.

Experts warn that “adoptions should not be spontaneous,” but there probably were a few of those.

Research beforehand helps. There are sites (adoptapet.com, for example) that will help you determine which (breed) dog is best for you.

As great as dachshunds are, they’re not for everyone. Some of you may remember Smitty. He was adopted, at the age of 5, from the great, no-kill MaxFund Shelter in Denver.

I was his third owner. It’s my understanding he may have nipped a child who was playing too aggressively with Smitty when he was a puppy.

Please: Do your homework.

The grand illusion in the land of confusion

Klotz and his empty claims

I am responding to Merlin Klotz, Douglas County’s Clerk and Recorder, supporting the futile attempt to overturn the free and fair election of Nov. 3, 2020. The recent article depicted Mr. Klotz’s urging Vice President Pence “to do the right thing,” I found it so telling that Mr. Klotz, responded “nothing in particular stood out” when asked which specific claims of election fraud he found credible.

What?! He openly participated in spreading false claims of massive voter fraud and supportive of what looks like a coup attempt by Donald Trump and his minions. In something so serious as trying to overturn the results of a presidential election, I would think that he would gladly provide the evidence. Where is it? Bupkis.

In the aftermath of the insurrection at the United States Capitol by a ragtag mob of white nationalists, conspiracy-theory believers and Trump supporters who sadly believe whatever he tells them to believe, we citizens need to accept the reality that facts are the victim of multiple echo chambers. Where do we turn now to get fact-based information that would be acceptable to millions of people who have been convinced that only they have the truth and anybody else is a sucker, deluded and the enemy. Mr. Klotz, I did pray that Mr. Pence would do the right thing, and he did. Thank God. Marilyn Beem Castle Rock

screen and mesmerized, revolted, saddened and disgusted.

Harry?

Harry came to me with a leash in his mouth.

Three of my friends adopted cats last year and they weren’t random acts: Each had owned cats in the past.

The advisory I mentioned is just this: Pets, especially dogs, require time, money, and commitment — and respect.

Harry’s annual Wellness Exam is coming up. He’s on a prescription diet. His teeth have to be cleaned.

Dog ownership isn’t what it once was.

The American Pet Products Association estimated we spent $99 billion on pet industry expenditures in 2020.

Some of that might include stupid hats and costumes, but the majority went to food, training, and medical care.

Although Hexe, my boyhood dachshund, was loved, she was treated very differently than I treat Harry. Dogs were, well, dogs back then. Now they are important mem-

M

usic just seems to have a way of connecting us with feelings of inspiration, motivation, adventure, romance, sorrow, and love. We WINNING can remember WORDS where we were the first time we heard those songs, and the people or person that we were with, and how we experienced the music.

Michael Norton Dating myself here as I share that I am a little stuck in the ‘70s and early ‘80s when it comes to my preferred genre of music. My playlists for working out, walking, or skiing are a collection of my favorite songs from that era.

This week, as I was listening to one of my playlists, I found the irony and prophetic wisdom in a couple of the songs that made it into my mix. The

first was Styx, “The Grand Illusion,” and the song that followed was Genesis, “Land of Confusion.” I asked myself: “Irony or prophecy?”

Styx’s “The Grand Illusion” lyrics caught my attention: “Welcome to the grand illusion, come on in and see what’s happening, pay the price, get your ticket for the show.”

It made me think of everything that has been going on in our country. The points of view, posts, political speeches, censorship and what the news covers and does not cover.

And just how serious of a situation we are in no matter what side we fall out on. And in the situations that we are finding ourselves in could well be described as the grand illusion that appears in our news and social media each day. Are we believing in the magic of the spin doctors on all sides and at every level, so much so, that we cannot determine what is real?

Genesis’ “The Land of Con-

fusion.” This was a unique political song for Genesis.

It refers to the thinking of world leaders at the time, specifically the United States and Russia. And on the heels of the Styx song mentioned above, “The Land of Confusion” filled my ears and my heart with the recognizable beat and lyrics. And as the song played, as loud as I could get it to play, I found myself anticipating and waiting for a particular part of the song, “There’s too many men, too many people, making too many problems, and not much love to go-’round, can’t you see this is the land of confusion.” Could it be any more spot-on today, especially considering that it was released in 1986? We need more love to go-’round.

As we all come to the same conclusion that it is an illusion and it is confusion, we will find ourselves thinking, “Now what?” For those of us

New year, new possibilities

A

new year is upon us and 2020 is but a bad memory.

It is important though, to learn what we can from the events of last year, to better prepare for any opportunities in 2021 FINANCIAL and beyond.

STRATEGIES It is hard to believe that a pandemic that hit the United States early last year will still be with us in full force a year later. This is a good example of what it feels like to plan for Patricia Kummer the unknown, and why it is so important to do so.

Last year was riddled with many issues: economies shutting down, overrun hospitals, businesses closing, job loss, social unrest and political turmoil, just to name a few.

And many of these issues played out in the stock market, causing a significant correction, bear market and unprecedented recovery. These are all virtually impossible to plan for. Therefore, every plan should have flexibility for the unknowns

Taking issue with Klotz

As a fellow voting Republican I take issue with Clerk Klotz regarding his allegations and statements.

Firstly, it should be pointed out that this article was certainly prepared prior to the riot at our federal legislative body.

It is widely known that Vice President Pence had no legal authority to intervene and declare the election illegal. To state otherwise would be to go against the laws of our land.

However, Klotz did encourage constituents to “Write, text, email and pray for Mike Pence to do the right thing.” It worked, he did, and thus maintained our country’s

not caught up in the mania that is taking place, we wonder how we should respond, what can we do, how do we live, work, and play amidst the illusion and confusion?

Here is the answer, just as we have seen magic shows and magicians live or on television, and then we get to see the hacks from behind the scenes, we are entertained for sure, but we accept it at face value.

It is magic. So, when we think of the grand illusion let’s look for the hack and the reality. Not trusting those who are trying to convince us through emotion but looking through the illusion and confusion by using our good judgment and common sense to draw our own conclusions.

One last song lyric from a tune

you cannot predict. Even for those who thought they could predict how the market would behave in these situations, many were wrong, and missed out on the strongest recovery in history.¹ Let’s look at the lessons learned here so we can be better stewards of our resources going forward.

• Trying to time the market almost never works. Remember the old adage, it is time in the market, not timing the market that brings the best results. March 2020 was a perfect example. Although we had a significant and quick decline, we had an equally significant and fast recovery.

• Emergency reserves are crucial at all times. The unemployment rate skyrocketed on a moment’s notice. Businesses were closing all year long, and the decline in the services sector was virtually impossible to predict. Having cash emergency reserves for at least six months’ living expenses may have been the difference in keeping your house, car and investments intact.

• Diversification is essential. Most investors wanted more cash and bonds in March but then drastically

wished they had more equities the rest of the year. This teaches us that proper diversification, based on your time frame, risk tolerance and income needs, is crucial all year long. When you have the right mix of conservative and growth investments, you can take distributions from the lower-risk assets and let the growth assets compound for longer periods of time, potentially helping offset future inflation.

• Don’t let emotions or politics drive your investment decisions.

Many investors and advisors alike thought the stock market would be negative in 2020. This concern started off with impeachment news without much concern (at that time) that we couldn’t avoid the pandemic quickly. Also trying to guess how an election year would affect the stock market can be a hopeless task. Many learned that lesson in 2016 as well.

• Bad times can create opportunity. Warren Buffett put it best when he said, “Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.” Don’t underestimate innovation during difficult times.

There are many other reasons to be prepared and prudent, but the

main message is to build a flexible financial plan. Start with the basics, such as emergency reserves and proper portfolio design. Don’t get caught up in the hype, which you can now see was not beneficial during 2020.

Start the new year with goals to keep your plan current, review your portfolio, plan for taxes, update your estate plan and prepare for the unexpected. We believe these simple steps can better position you to handle future unknowns.

Thoughts on Klotz

If I were the reporter interviewing Merlin Klotz, in the article “Clerk urges Pence to declare some states’ elections illegal” by Elliott Wenzler, I would have asked Mr. Klotz, the head of our Douglas County elections, about his motive for his Facebook post declaring elections in seven states illegal.

Who does he think he is? Oh, excuse me, he is our elected authority on elections. Then what gives him the right to challenge the electoral tally on a conservative blog? Oh, the First Amendment and freedom of speech, although not surprisingly that right is challenged by the head SEE LETTERS, P16

There are so many great classics from yesteryear that are just so relevant today and I would love to hear your favorites at mnorton@tramazing. com.

WORD ON THE HEAT:

Forget the controversy, enjoy your chiles

Green chile is region’s signature food, with no shortage of controversy

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

H

atch, Pueblo, Anaheim or an upstart from Greeley — Coloradans have differences of opinion on who grows green chiles best. But when it comes to the state’s love for the spicy fruit (yes, fruit), there’s not much debate to be found.

What you can find, almost everywhere, are green chile burgers, green chile burritos, green chiles in chocolate and wine. There’s green chile salsa, green chile sausages, chips with green chile and lime. But according to Eddie V., (last name withheld) originally from Pueblo, but calling Denver home for decades, for the true connoisseur, a bowl of green chile with a side of warm flour tortillas is all you’ll ever need.

New Mexico, let’s face it, is the 800-pound gorilla in the green chile game, with the tiny village of Hatch creating a smoky mystique from coast to coast. But Colorado has been making a respectable showing with the Mirasol, or Mosco chile, aka the Pueblo chile, grown in, you guessed it, Pueblo.

To say green chiles are popular in the city of Pueblo would be a notable understatement. Home to the Chile and Frijoles Festival, and perennial but friendly foe of the folks down in Hatch, the Southern Colorado city can claim serious chile cred. But about four hours north and a little bit east, Greeley is trying to get a piece of the action.

“My mother grew up on a farm, and wanted a produce stand when she was a child, and her dad said no. Then, when she got married, she still wanted one, and my father said no. When he died, she told my brother she wanted one, and he asked me what we should do, and I said: ‘Build her a produce stand!” said Tigges Farm’s Kathy Rickart.

Rickart comes from a Greeley family farm that goes back three generations. Pumpkins are the big cash crop at Tigges Farm, but if she has her way, Northern Colorado will, some day, compete with Pueblo for green chile glory — maybe even with Hatch. Rickart, with a background in 4-H education, developed her love of the green chile while spending seven years living and working in Bernalillo County, New Mexico. Her brother, Kenneth Tigges, was running the family farm at that point — growing chiles without much local demand, when a neighbor told him he needed to start roasting them onsite, which was a game-changer.

In 2008, Rickart’s mother passed away. At that time, Rickart, her sister, Gale, and her brother officially

took over the farm. They planted 5,000 chile plants that year. They’ve since quadrupled that number, and Rickart has sought out every bit of knowledge about green chiles she can find. Last year, even amid the COVID-19 pandemic, which she said gave them their share of difficulties, her farm sold out of chiles, Sahuaro by name, completely. The season is shorter up north than in the warmer climes of New Mexico, so don’t dawdle if you aim to try a Greeley chile in the fall.

“As soon as we get the hard freezes, it puts an end to the season,” Rickart said. “Mother Nature rules, from beginning to end.”

The fabled Santiago’s

Carmen Morales knows a few things about green chile, and green chiles. Morales founded Santiago’s.

Her mother’s green chile recipe put the restaurant on the metro area’s culinary map 30 years ago. Now, with more than 28 locations, Santiago’s is virtually synonymous with breakfast burritos. But the green chile, she said, still reigns supreme.

Morales’ parents were originally from New Mexico, where she said her mom learned to cook.

“My dad had to have green chile at every meal or he would refuse to

eat,” she said. “To him, it wasn’t really a meal without it.”

So, her mom would make it from scratch every day. Morales said that scratch kitchen tradition continues to this day at every Santiago’s location. And when you see the numbers — the sheer volume of product they’re creating — it puts into perspective, what a massive undertaking it is.

“One year we purchased 1.8 million pounds of green chiles,” Morales said, “and sold 1.36 million gallons of green chile.”

Santiago’s gets all of those green chiles from Salem, New Mexico, not the storied Hatch. Morales says the farm they buy from is the only one they’ve found capable of producing what her restaurants need.

Santiago’s celebrated the 30th anniversary of their flagship location in Brighton earlier this month.

On the topic of things that are wildly popular in this state, Tommyknocker has been brewing craft beer in Idaho Springs for 26 years.

Brewmaster Steve Indrehus has been there the entire time, creating beer with hints of chocolate, pumpkin and citrus, but a mainstay, and the No. 2 seller in the lineup, is their Green Chile Lager. Other breweries make chile brews too, but Indrehus

thinks drinkability is what sets Tommyknocker’s apart from the rest.

“A lot of the others are really hot and in the novelty category,” he said.

“Ours has green chile flavor and warmth, but it’s drinkable. We want people to drink one and want another, not get burned up by too much spice, too much alcohol — everything comes together to make a really nice balanced beer.”

Indrehus said it takes about 100 pounds of chiles — a blend of mild and hot Anaheims — to make every batch of lager.

Scented, not spicy

Beer’s not your bag? Green chile lovers who prefer a touch of the grape, rejoice.

Lescombes Vineyard has you covered. The New Mexico winery has been making Hatch Green Chile Wine since the late 1980s. Sandra Pacheco, national sales director at Lescombes, said the wine isn’t spicy.

“It’s more in the bouquet,” she said. “You’re getting the heat from the aroma, like the essence of a roasted chile, in the nose of the wine.”

Several stores in the metro area stock Hatch Green Chile Wine, if you’re so inclined.

What will level yellow mean for eateries?

Parker restaurateurs have mixed feelings about dine-in rules

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Parker restaurants certified under the COVID-19 5-Star program could soon receive loosened indoor dining restrictions, but simply doubling the permitted seating capacity means different things to different restaurateurs.

Gov. Jared Polis moved the state from level red “stay-at-home” to level orange “safer-at-home” status Jan. 4. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment announced the same day that any businesses previously certified under the COVID-19 5-Star program — allowing them to operate at 25% of their indoor dining capacity — could move to level yellow safer-at-home restrictions after seven consecutive days of declining cases in their respective counties. Level yellow status permits restaurants to operate at 50% capacity.

Aaron and Sharon Murphy, coowners of Welcome Home Brewery in south Parker, welcomed a move to level yellow, which would better enable them to hold events.

Before the pandemic, Welcome Home held poker games, trivia contests and karaoke nights “There’s obviously a cost associated with all that, so you want to make sure you’re getting a good return on your investment,” Aaron Murphy said. “At 25% capacity that’s kind of a tipping point, whereas at 50% capacity we could do those activities and still draw the crowds in.”

The Murphys opened Welcome Home Brewery, at 19523 Hess Road, in 2018. Aaron, an Arapahoe County Sheriff ’s Office deputy by day, credited local support as the reason they have been able to weather the pandemic to this point.

“March, April and May were a long three months,” Aaron said.

“Our customers and our regulars really stepped up during that time.”

During the early stages of the pandemic last year, they would have friends volunteer to help wherever the Murphys needed, Aaron said.

“I think they missed the social aspect as much as we did,” Aaron said.

Aaron recalled how he woke up early May 23 of last year as if it were Christmas Day — the day breweries could reopen again following the shutdown that began in March.

“When they hit us with level red restrictions again” in mid-November, Aaron said, “that was really hard …

“Having to tell people ‘Hey you can come in and grab a beer, but you have to sit outside in the cold’ — that was really challenging,” Aaron said.

Welcome Home was one of the first 100 or so businesses to open

Sharon and Aaron Murphy, owners of Welcome Home Brewery in Parker, are eager to allow for greater seating capacity, and applied PHOTOS BY NICK PUCKETT for 5-Star certification from Douglas County as soon as the program received verification from the state.

under the new program status, Aaron said. The county received approval from the state for its 5-Star certification program the morning of Dec. 21. Welcome Home received its inspection that afternoon. Two days later, they reopened at 25% capacity.

Level yellow is the second of three “safer-at-home” levels outlined on the CDPHE dial framework for reopening businesses amid the pandemic. Level yellow allows restaurants to operate at 50% indoor capacity — double of what is allowed under the current level orange safer-at-home restrictions.

To Michael Wood, manager of Hickory House, being able to operate at 50% versus 25% capacity makes little difference when the underlying contingency is that parties remain 6 feet apart.

“I personally do not think it’s going to make a difference,” Wood said Jan. 7. “It’s the 6-foot rule that ties our hands. We still have to adhere to that, and that goes all the way to (level) green.”

Hickory House has narrow corridors and a more intimate dining area normally capable of seating 50 people. At 25% capacity, the restaurant can seat 12 people at a time. Scanning the dining room from a booth Jan. 7, Wood pointed out there were few places to sit more customers while enforcing 6-foot social distancing inside.

Wood and his staff do their best to follow public health guidelines wherever they sit on the dial, Wood said, but he still grapples with the ever-changing — at times, confusing — nuances of the public health orders, like the

subtle difference between where a bartender can mix drinks and how close a server can stand to a table being serviced.

“It seems like it changes all the time,” Wood said.

Wood trusts that the public health officials’ guidance will get everyone through the pandemic quicker, he said.

“If it saves lives and we get through the pandemic — fine,” Wood said. “So be it.”

Level green, also known as “protect our neighbors,” is the lowest level on the CDPHE COVID-19 dial.

Wood and Murphy, though in different industries, agree that they would not be open today if it were not for support from the community as well as local leaders. Both praised Town of Parker and Douglas County officials for stepping up for small businesses.

“There’s been a lot of push to support local businesses, and that’s been fantastic,” Aaron said.

“Then, of course, our regulars and the people who have become part of our Welcome Home family — they’re a big part of the reason we’re going to be able to endure this thing.”

of Douglas County Democrats who disagrees, finding a way to package his speech as an ethical violation.

Ha, when did Democrats discover ethics? And that’s the point. We would not have had illegal elections if the Democrats had ethics.

Smith Young Parker Account for officers

Given the large number of reports and identifications of law enforcement officers who traveled to D.C. and participated in the seditious assault upon the Capitol, shouldn’t all law enforcement agencies in Colorado provide an accounting to the public of their personnel (to include volunteers, e.g. community service volunteers and reserve officers) on that day to provide assurance that none traveled to D.C. to participate in the terrorist assault on our nation’s Capitol?

And given the extensive national effort by thousands of Trump sup-

porters that was put into the lawlessness in D.C., and the significant amount of chatter on web pages and social media, shouldn’t all Colorado law enforcement agencies put the FBI’s dedicated tip line for the Capitol Hill assault on their website homepages so that citizens can provide any information that they might have regarding the terrorists that participated in, or aided and abetted, one of the worst crimes in American history?

Robert C. Marshall Highlands Ranch Consider failed court cases

People are entitled to an opinion and there is a right to express those opinions just like Trump can contest the results in the court system.

However, to completely ignore or mention the court cases that did not overturn the ballots is a gross error in any opinion. The evidence needs to be presented to the court and if the courts rule that the evidence not compelling then the case has to be rejected. That is how the Constitution works.

Calling it a deep state operation is an insult to the United Sates court system. Parroting Trump that we

were robbed just incites the masses.

The result was seen on national TV on Jan. 6. Shame on anyone for not mentioning or considering the court record on these cases in their post.

The flames were fanned by propagating the lies about the extent of voting fraud. Blood has been spilled and it is on your hands. Now deal with it.

Ed Moore Highlands Ranch Mark Hall, let’s talk

Mark Hall’s call to harass inspectors and CDPHE staff at their homes is alarming. I joined the Parker community over 15 years ago. I was on staff at PEPC and volunteered there for several years.

In Parker I have managed small businesses, helped people move, repaired homes, and donated time, talents, and resources to local organizations. I have received food from SECOR, had rent paid by my church, and had help from people in Parker to get a job at CDPHE. CDPHE’s over 2,000 employees are just as diverse as Colorado. We have single moms volunteering as medical interpreters, retired military, spouses of active military,

people who volunteer for shelters, and above all, we are all public servants. Mr. Hall’s call to harass public servants and our families is a call to harass children, military, and our neighbors.

Mr. Hall, and anyone who supports your rhetoric, I invite you to get to know us. I will buy any of you a coffee at our small businesses (Fika, Coffee Cabin, etc.) and we can sit outside and talk. After 15 years in Parker, and 10 years at CDPHE, I can say that is who we are, we are good people who care about our state, our communities, and our neighbors.

We work tirelessly and with integrity.

Even though you may not agree with our work, we all want the same thing, a swift and safe end to this global pandemic. To do that we encourage everyone to wear a mask, keep 6 feet apart, wash your hands, and get the vaccine as soon as you are eligible. I encourage you to get to know us and your community better. We are not an enemy to go to war with, we are your neighbors.

Noah Begley, your neighbor and CDPHE employee Parker

Basketball season will look different Pandemic means nothing is sure, but plans are in place to move forward

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

There is to be a 2021 Colorado high school basketball season — although nothing is certain during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Basketball practices for boys and girls were to begin on Jan. 18 and competition had the go-ahead to start on Jan. 25, but the season will definitely look and be different.

The Colorado High School Activities Association gained a variance from the state and Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment to allow 24 total players on a team, plus coaches and trainers.

Modifications were announced for the upcoming season and masks must be worn by players during games. There will be a 14-game regular season in all classes. Postseason play in Class 3A will have a 24-team bracket, with 32-team brackets in Class 4A and 5A. Players will be limited to 76 total quarters in the season, exclusive of overtime and postseason games. There will be no

consolation games during the 2021 state tournaments, which are now scheduled for March 19-20.

League champions automatically qualify for postseason play, and the CHSAA Seeding Index will determine at-large qualifiers.

“I do think that most coaches are just thrilled for the kids that they will get to play,” said Rock Canyon girls coach Becky Mudd.

Boys coaches that responded to questions favored Valor Christian, ThunderRidge and Regis Jesuit as the top teams in the south metro area, which includes the Douglas County and Littleton public schools, some Cherry Creek schools, plus Valor Christian and Lutheran high schools.

Valor Christian has Amondo Miller, AJ Kula and DJ Burrage coming back off last year’s 20-6 team that made the CHSAA’s Final Four before the season was canceled because of COVID concerns.

ThunderRidge has good size with Zack Keller and Joey Bilello and depth and leadership from Nolan Marold and Garrett Arnold. Regis will once again be a tough squad to handle with the senior guidance of Ty Bergman, Mike Wolfe, Blakeley Stoughton and Alonzo Paul.

Cherry Creek, led by last season’s top 5A scorer in Julian Hammond and Myles Purchase, will be a boys

team to watch while Ben Bowen and Mountain Vista could have another strong team.

Lutheran will have one of the highly regarded boys teams in Class 3A. Grandview, Regis Jesuit, Valor Christian and Highlands Ranch are among the south metro area’s preseason most prominent girls teams.

The Grandview Wolves return 6-foot-7 Lauren Betts, last season’s leading 5A rebounder with a 11.2 average and who also scored 17.8 points per game, along with Addison O’Grady and Marya Hudgins to form a strong nucleus. Regis is led

by Avery Van Sickle, and the Raiders will be another team that will be feared. Valor has lost Reagan Beers to an ACL injury but Kindyll Wetta, Jenna Siebert, Haley Huard and Skyler Boylan will provide the Eagles with abundant talent to go far in the playoffs. Highlands Ranch will be without Taylor Ray, who is in a battle against cancer, but the Falcons return Payton Muma to help form the foundation for a competitive team.

A few of the top returning boys south metro players are Hammond (Cherry Creek), Miller (Valor Christian), Baye Fall (Lutheran), Bowen (Mountain Vista), Terrance Ferguson (Heritage), Bergman (Regis Jesuit), Jalen Weaver

(Smoky Hill), Marold (ThunderRidge), Kula (Valor Christian), Purchase (Cherry Creek), Nate Gravagno (Englewood), Jaeton Hackley (Douglas County), Wolf (Regis Jesuit), Keller (ThunderRidge), Braden Boley (Chaparral), Tanner Lamb (Legend), Stoughton (Regis Jesuit), Arnold (ThunderRidge), Tommy Apodaca (Lutheran) , Garrett Siebert (Legend), Paul (Regis Jesuit), Bilello (ThunderRidge), Sean Evans (Legend), Jason Simental (ThunderRidge) and Reid Fornstrom (Littleton).

A list of some of the top south metro returning girls players includes Muma (Highlands Ranch), Van Sickle (Regis Jesuit), Wetta (Valor Christian), Siebert (Valor Christian), Betts (Grandview), Makena Vetter (Rock Canyon), Stephanie Schultz (Lutheran), O’Grady (Grandview), Liberty Line (Ponderosa), Trinity Grambush (Smoky Jill), Kacee Kyle (Cherry Creek), Avery Bang (Chaparral), Kinzie Whitehead (Legend), Boylan (Valor Christian), Hudgins (Grandview), Huard (Valor Christian), Jordan Johnson (Regis Jesuit), Abby Wrede (Cherry Creek), Sam Crispe (Arapahoe), Alex Pirog (Highlands Ranch), Samantha Jones (Regis Jesuit), Leaya McKinney (Castle View) and Payton Bang (Chaparral).

Ct., May 27, 1919). ix. Concerning the Revised Abandonment List of Water Rights in Water Division No. 1, Case No. 11CW263 (Water Division 1, January 30, 2013). d. Points of Diversion: i. House Bill No. 140: “. . . from the bed of the South Platte river at any point . . . between the Platte canon and the mouth of Cherry Creek, and also . . . from the bed of Cherry creek at any point within six miles of its mouth….” ii. CA 791 Decree: A point situated in the southwest quarter of the southeast quarter (S.W. 1/4 of S.E. 1/4) of Section 14, Township 6 South, Range 69 West of the 6th Principal Meridian, from whence the southeast corner of the southwest quarter of the southeast quarter (S.W. 1/4 of S.E. 1/4) of said Section 14 bears north 89 degrees 47 minutes 30 seconds east 188.6 feet in said Douglas County, State of Colorado, as generally depicted in Exhibit A. iii. Chatfield Reservoir Dam and Manifold: The existing point of diversion is now the Chatfield Reservoir Dam and Manifold. The center line of the manifold intersects the center line of the dam at a point whence the SW Corner of Section 1, Township 6 South, Range 69 West of the 6th P.M., Jefferson County, bears North 49 decrees a distance of 4,070 feet. Due to the construction of Chatfield Reservoir Dam and Manifold, the point of diversion decreed in CA 791 is within the high water line and a portion of the ditch alignment was inundated by the reservoir.

Consequently, water diverted under the City Ditch water right is diverted and measured at the Chatfield Dam and Manifold. The diversion of the City Ditch water right at Chatfield Dam and Manifold is authorized by C.R.S. § 37-28-111(1) and justified by the construction of Chatfield Reservoir, as generally depicted in Exhibit A. e. Source of Water: South Platte River. f. Appropriation Dates: i. House Bill No. 140: February 21, 1860, Date of Approval of Kansas Territory House Bill No. 140. ii.

Priority 1 is decreed “[s]o much water as will flow in said ditch on a grade or fall of four and one half feet to the mile with width on bottom of ten feet, width on top 13 feet, with depth of water flow of eighteen inches.” The State Engineer has determined and administered Priority 1 as being entitled to a total of 30 c.f.s. ii. Priority 75 is decreed “so much additional water as will amount to forty-three cubic feet of water per second of time.” The State Engineer has determined and administered this priority as being entitled to 13 c.f.s. iii. Priority 130 is decreed “so much additional water, as will amount to 89-95/100 cubic feet of water per second of time.” The State Engineer has determined and administered this priority as being entitled to 42.95 c.f.s. iv. House Bill No. 140 did not specify a flow rate limit. h. Statutory and Decreed Uses: Mechanical, agricultural, irrigation, mining, and city purposes. I. CLAIM FOR CHANGE OF WATER RIGHT 4. Detailed Description of Proposed Change: a. Statement of Change, Including a Description of All Water Rights to be Changed: Denver Water seeks to quantify the historical consumptive use and return flows and add alternate points of diversion and places of storage for approximately 12 c.f.s. decreed to Priority 1 that was historically used to irrigate City Park, Washington Park and Denver Country Club (“Subject Water Right”). The existing point of diversion for the Subject Water Right is described in paragraph 3.d.iii. above. The alternate points of diversion and places of storage Denver Water seeks to add for the City Ditch water right are described in paragraph 4.b. and 4.c. below.

Diversion Records, Map of Historically Irrigated Lands, Methods of Analysis: Denver Water may rely on the summaries of records of actual diversions of the Subject Water Right attached as Exhibit C to this Application. Denver Water will use a parcel-by-parcel analysis of the irrigated area shown in Exhibit D to determine the historical consumptive use because it seeks to change only a portion of the City Ditch water right, which portion Denver Water historically used at the lower end of the Ditch north of I-25. II. CLAIM FOR RIGHT OF SUBSTITUTION 5. Return Flow Replacement through Substitution: Denver Water will have return flow replacement obligations resulting from the historical use of the City Ditch water right that is the subject of this application.

Denver Water will use the sources listed in paragraph 6 below to meet its return flow replacement obligations (“Replacement Sources”). Denver Water may also use water derived from water rights in addition to those set forth in paragraph 6 below pursuant to statutory procedures; provided the water so released is fully consumable. All releases of replacement sources to meet Denver Water’s return flow replacement obligations will be made in the same time, amount, and location of the historical return flows when a call is being administered on the South Platte River downstream of the historical accrual location senior to the date of this application. 6. Replacement Water: Denver Water owns water rights originally decreed in the South Platte River basin for direct flow irrigation uses and has changed the consumptive use portions of these rights, by decree, to all municipal uses. Denver Water also owns water rights in tributaries to the Colorado River, which Denver imports to the South Platte River basin for beneficial use. In addition, Denver Water owns water rights in not-nontributary Arapahoe and Upper Arapahoe Aquifer formations and water rights in the nontributary Arapahoe and Upper Arapahoe, Laramie-Fox Hills, and the Lower Arapahoe Aquifer formations. Water from these sources will be made available in the amounts and at locations necessary to replace return flows from diversions under the changed City Ditch water right.
