Jury awards $353 million to family of cyclist Gwen Inglis killed by driver

VOLUME 39 | ISSUE 21

Lakewood City Council members face email death threats

Members divided on the cause and how to handle them

BY ANDREW FRAIELI AFRAIELI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Members of the Lakewood City Council say they and their families have received racist, sexist and homophobic emails that include death threats for months.

Lakewood police and the city’s IT officials have been unable to track the exact source of the emails, according to Mayor Adam Paul. Efforts have only been able to trace the emails to a server in Russia.

One councilor feels that the police and city have not done enough to investigate the emails, while others, including Paul, believe the actions of some council members are perpetuating threats.

A jury has awarded $353 million to the husband and estate of Colorado champion cyclist Gwen Inglis, who died after being hit by a car in Lakewood.

Ryan Scott Montoya, 31, struck Inglis in May 2021 on Alameda Parkway. Montoya had marijuana, meth

and Xanax in his system at the time of the crash, according to court records and pleaded guilty earlier this year to vehicular manslaughterdriving under the influence. He was sentenced in June to eight years with eligibility for parole in 2025.

The day of Gwen’s death

“She was a champion gal like nobody’s business,” said Mike Inglis,

Gwen’s husband. “She was just the epitome of what a good kid could ever be.”

The day of the crash was cool, overcast Sunday morning, Inglis told Colorado Community Media. He and Gwen had just finished a 45-minute ride around Green Mountain park, a warm-up for Mike’s

Concern and divisiveness over the emails began months ago. Council member Anita Springsteen said she received an email in April that threatened her with sexual assault and the bombing of her car unless she resigned from City Council. Springsteen has not attended a council meeting in person since, citing fears over the threat.

She said the threat affects her ability to do her ward duties “tremendously,” and she hasn’t felt safe coming in for in-person events since April.

race later in the afternoon.

“That bike path around Green Mountain is just beautiful, and that’s where we live,” Inglis said. “And we can just see all the mountain bikers on the mountain, it’s just truly a blessing to be there.”

Gwen had injured her ankle the previous weekend and wasn’t competing, instead riding for another hour after Mike.

“She said, ‘Alright, I’ll see you back at home,’ and, ‘I’ll see you in an hour,’ and I said, ‘I love you,’ and she turned back and said, ‘I love you too.’ Then she stood up and started going up the hill,” heading back down to Bear Creek, Inglis said.

As he rode away from his wife, Montoya drove by. His tires were inches from the bike lane, almost hitting Mike. He turned to another cyclist who was passing him, saying, “‘That dude is going to kill somebody.’”

“And then three seconds later (Montoya) crossed directly over that white line for a foot and a half and just plowed Gwen,” Mike said. “I would have been home in six minutes.”

The $353 million verdict

“We feel that far too often drivers are not punished for hitting cyclists,” said the family’s lawyer, Megan Hottman, a fellow cycling professional and teammate of Gwen’s. “We see all the time that people don’t even get jail time. They get a light slap on the wrist.”

The Inglis family filed the civil lawsuit against Montoya in Jefferson County only a week after the crash. The announcement of the verdict on Dec. 6 was substantial — $353 million. According to Hottman, the goal of the lawsuit was to “deter others from this conduct and to hopefully save other cyclists’ lives.”

The specific amount wasn’t requested in the lawsuit, Hottman said. It was left for the jury to decide. “So, the jury sent a very strong message that this is not behavior that they tolerate,” she said. “And as members of the Jefferson County population, that sends a really strong message.”

According to state transporta-

tion department statistics, there were at least 113 car crashes involving a bicyclist in Jefferson County within the year leading up to Gwen Inglis’ death. Three of those were fatal.

There were 10 crashes the month she died, with at least an additional 169 crashes since — one of which involved Hottman.

She was hit over the summer while cycling and badly injured, appearing at Montoya’s sentencing hearing in a wheelchair with a broken shoulder and a broken knee.

“I hadn’t undergone surgery yet, that was two days after I was hit, and I spent most of my summer in a wheelchair and using a walker,” she said.

She believes there needs to be both better infrastructure and tighter laws and punishments

for DUI drivers who kill others, including cyclists.

“The eight years was a very dissatisfying sentence,” Hottman said. “Montoya is parole-eligible in 2025. So, he’s only going to do a few years and then he’ll be back out.”

Mike Inglis’ hope for change

According to Mike Inglis, Montoya stated in court that he was unaware of the Colorado state law requiring drivers to give cyclists at least 3-feet of space while passing them.

“You get taught that,” Mike said, whether from driver’s education or otherwise. “But there’s no refresher in society.”

He sees this lack of education as a major avenue for improvement for safety.

“Maybe that’s what we’re lack-

ing, there’s just nobody educating the general population on things that should just be good

Rumble strips to alert a driver they are drifting into the bike lane, and painting those lanes a bright color like green are cheap, easy improvements Inglis believes could have prevented Gwen’s death. Commenting on painting the lanes, it allows driver’s to be more confident as they know

More so, he believes restrictions need to be tightened for driver’s found driving under the influinsurance increased for repeated offenders, pointing out that the insurance payout from Montoya didn’t even cover Gwen’s funeral costs. He said that Montoya had been arrested for a DUI 10 days before striking and killing Gwen.

According to court records, the incident happened in Gilpin County, and Montoya pleaded not

“How does he have his driver’s license? How’s that even possible? Nobody on the planet would say that is a good idea, but here we

The multi-million-dollar verdict breaks down into three categories: economical, or lost wages from Gwen’s death; punitive, or the punishment and deterrent for others breaking the law; and emotional.

“It’s for the pain and suffering for me having to breathe into my wife’s mouth on the side of the road as they turn blue,” he said. “That’s probably not one of the best things that a military paramedic ever wants to have to do, but that’s what I ended up doing.”

The highest part of the award though, at $250 million, was the punitive charge.

“If the general public feels like they can be cavalier around cyclists and they don’t have to drive safely around them because they don’t fear going to jail, we were hoping that a civil verdict in this size would be frightening and scary and sobering enough that people will think twice about how they drive around cyclists,” said Hottman. “And more generally, they will think twice before they get behind the wheel if they’re impaired.”

Former Edgewater sergeant indicted for unlawful sexual contact

BY ANDREW FRAIELI AFRAIELI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A five-year-long grand jury investigation into allegations of unlawful sexual contact and retaliation against a witness against former Edgewater sergeant Nathan Geerdes has concluded.

The indictment, the concluding report by the grand jury on Dec. 7, presents four counts of unlawful sexual conduct — two with use of force — and one of witness retaliation.

Geerdes was most recently employed by the Black Hawk Police Department, turning himself in on Dec. 6 after being fired from the department when news of the indictment was released.

The victim of the unlawful sexual

contact Geerdes is accused of was a female officer with the Edgewater Police Department in two separate incidents after leaving a holiday party hosted by the department in December of 2019.

According to the indictment, Geerdes repeatedly touched the victim in various places without consent, with the victim moving his hand away each time. Both had consumed alcohol.

The use of force consisted of Geerdes supposedly having “shoved” the victim against a wall preventing her from moving away as he continued to touch her without consent.

In Decmber of 2020, an independent investigator was retained by Edgewater to investigate allegations of misconduct related to incidents at the holiday party. It concluded

in Feb. of 2021, Geerdes was made aware of the findings, and told by then Edgewater Police Chief Mackey he may be disciplined with a multiday suspension. Geerdes resigned days later.

The intimidation of a witness charge comes from Geerdes, before his final day of employment, calling into his sergeant’s office Patrol Officer Chad Slaven. Geerdes believed, according to the indictment, that Slaven “ratted him out” and falsified information for the investigation.

According to the indictments, Geerdes then “told Chad Slaven law enforcement was a small community, that he knew people in law enforcement and that he was going to ruin his law enforcement career and threatened to come after his family.”

The retaliation against a witness

The 2023 Update of the Sellers Property Disclosure Document Is a Great Improvement

Every few years, the Division of Real Estate releases a revised Sellers Property Disclosure to be used by real estate brokers. A forms committee suggest revisions which then must be approved by the Colorado Real Estate Commission.

I wasn’t a big fan of the version which was released in 2018, but I’m a big fan of the one which is being released for use starting in January 2023.

Some of the changes are subtle — for example, the seller is told to disclosure adverse materials facts instead of defects. That makes sense, since there is no definition of “defect” in the 2018 or new version.

Other changes are more substantive. For example, instead of just asking if the property is in an HOA, it asks for the name of the association(s) and contact information for each. If the neighborhood has cluster mailboxes, it asks for the location and number of the mailbox.

At the top of the form, it asks when the seller acquired the property, not just the year it was built. It also asks the seller to attach any reports, receipts or other documents “you believe necessary for the information you provide to be complete.”

The seller is asked whether the home is subject to deed restrictions or affordable housing restrictions, and whether it is in a historic district.

Another sign of the times is that instead of asking if there is or has been tobacco smoke, it refers only to “smoking” and adds in parentheses “including in garages, unfinished space, or detached buildings.”

Under “Access and Parking,” the form asks if there are any limitations on parking or access due to size, number and type of vehicles. Instead of asking if there are “any access problems,” it asks the broader question of whether there are “access problems, issues or concerns.” Those three words are used elsewhere to expand on the question of “problems.”

In the section on “Use, zoning and legal issues,” instead of asking simply whether any additions or alterations have been made, it specifies whether they were made with a building permit and without a building permit, including “non-aesthetic alterations,” which is undefined. It also asks whether the property has been used for short-term rentals

DMAR’s ‘Metro Area’ Statistics Cover 11 Counties

What do the rural cities and towns of Kiowa, Agate, Simla, Fairplay, Georgetown, Empire, Black Hawk, Rollinsville, Nederland, Allenspark, Lyons, Longmont, and Bennett have in common? They’re all included in the Denver metro area statistics compiled monthly by the Denver Metro Association of Realtors for its market trends report. At right is a map of the 11 counties included in that report. REcolorado, the Denver MLS, allows infinite flexibility in drawing the boundaries when searching for listings or doing statistical analysis, so my preference is always to draw a radius of 20 miles from downtown Denver when compiling metro statistics.

At left is this month’s infographic from DMAR showing the November month-over-month statistics for their 11-county “metro area.”

Under all five elements of the infographic I have inserted the same November statistics for the 20mile radius of downtown Denver that I prefer to use.

For this month the variations are not as great as I have seen in some months.

in the past year and whether there are “grandfathered conditions or uses.”

Under “Sewer,” the form asks for the name of the sewer service provider, the date of the last sewer scope, the date of the last septic use permit, inspection, and pumping — all useful information.

In the “Water” section, the form asks for the location of the water shutoff. If there’s a well, it asks the date of the last inspection and service. It asks the gallons per minute (GPM) of the well as of a specified date, and it asks the size in gallons of any cistern. Lastly, it asks whether the seller purchased any supplemental water in the last two years — an indication of the well’s adequacy.

The form asks the seller to identify the electricity, cable TV and internet service providers.

The instructor of the class I took re-

garding these new contracts and disclosures reminded us that the sellers property disclosure is to be accurate as of the date the home goes under contract. Therefore, if the property goes under contract after Dec. 31, 2022, this new form must be completed by the seller, but it does not need to be replaced if a pending listing doesn’t close until 2023.

That led me to adopt a new “best practice” which I’ll share here with my fellow listing agents. Instead of having the seller complete and sign the sellers property disclosure when we list the home, my practice henceforth will be to have the seller complete the document at the time of listing but to review it and sign it only upon going under contract with a buyer, thereby assuring that it is accurate as of the purchase contract date, as stated on the disclosure.

Lennar Project Features 3D Printed Homes

In the Texas Hill Country outside Austin, Lennar has broken ground on a 100-home subdivision in which all the homes will be built using ICON’s 3D printing robots for the exterior and interior walls.

You can find a one-minute YouTube video clip about the project on the posting of this article on our company blog, www.GoldenREblog.com

The bottom four homes in the aerial rendering at right show the various stages of the 3D printing process. After a home’s slab is poured, an overhead gantry goes back and forth pouring 3-inch (I’m guessing) layers of concrete one on top of the other, following a computerized plan for the walls and openings. The video shows the process in action.

Lennar is the first production builder I know of which has adopted ICON’s proprietary 3D printing process to build an entire subdivision. The process eliminates most of the waste and labor associated with building the walls in homes. The windows and doors are framed con-

ventionally, and wood trusses are added to support the roof.

Developed by Hillwood Communities, the 3- and 4-bedroom homes offer eight different floorplans, with 24 unique elevations ranging from 1,500 to over 2,100 square feet.

The Georgetown, Texas, community, Wolf Ranch, will “set the standard for the future of homebuilding — technologically advanced, energy efficient and architecturally striking,” according to ICON.

The construction method is not only more sustainable but produces homes that are resistant to fires, floods, termites, and high-wind events.

Nathan Geerdes I COURTESY OF THE COLORADO FIRST JUDICIAL DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICE

“What that means is I can’t do my ward meetings, I can’t attend executive sessions that are about major decisions involving the city like the municipal judge and the contract of the city manager,” she explained. “What I feel like (the council is) asking me to do is to put my person and property at risk to attend meetings.”

Other members have received threats as well.

Paul, along with council member Jeslin Shahrezaei, confirmed that they’ve also received threats. The most recent one came Nov. 28, just minutes before a council meeting where the topic of gun control came up during public comment, even though it was not on the agenda

“I was disappointed, but not totally surprised that it was a dead end,” Shahrezaei said of the threats only being traced to a Russian server. “So there’s not a whole lot more happening with that at this point because there’s not a whole lot they can do.”

The email included death threats that were aimed not only at Shahrezaei, but also her children.

“I think that’s sort of the rub for me,” she said. “I’ve been dealing with the sort of discomfort that comes with that and the feeling of insecurity. As an elected official, I had a community-wide

meeting on Saturday, and I had to ask if I was safe to do this.”

While the city says it has done all it can to investigate, Springsteen thinks more should be done. She has brought up the threats repeatedly in meetings, “to the point that everyone is sick of hearing from me about it.”

Springsteen alleges the city is working against her, putting up “roadblocks” that prevent further investigation. In one example,

she feels blocked out by Lakewood police for not giving her the report on her death threat investigation unless she pays — which is standard police procedure.

“The idea that I should have to pay for this report for things that happened to me, because of my service as an elected official, seems absolutely upside-down,” she explained. If she requests it as an official, it becomes public record.

The Lakewood police department said they investigate every death threat, no matter who it affects, and they claim each threat against a council member is still currently under investigation.

“Obviously, it’s concerning any time we get any sort of call from our city counselors that they are being threatened or harassed, anything like that,” stated Lake-

Lakewood City Council members have been receiving anonymous emails containing death threats for months. SHUTTERSTOCK

wood Police Public Information Officer John Romero. “We handle them like any other time.”

Springsteen believes talking about the threats is the “only way to dial it back.” But Shahrezaei thinks mentioning the threats repeatedly at meetings has “numbed” the community to the issue.

“We have to keep re-hashing this, and I almost didn’t feel comfortable coming forward this week (with the threat from Monday) because it felt like there’s exhaustion on this topic,” Shahrezaei said. “There’s not going to be a reaction, and some of us are dealing with threats that are much worse. So, I don’t feel empowered to come forward in this because I feel like she’s diluted it.”

Springsteen clarified that she was unaware other members were receiving threats, but also stated she felt members were minimizing her threat by saying they’ve received threats before too.

Shahrezaei also believes that members’ interactions with certain groups agitated on divisive subjects have escalated the threats.

Paul agrees.

“...people on social media have said horrendous things about me, made allegations about me

that are just so far-fetched and you just get fatigued by it,” Paul said, believing that to be partly caused by Springteen’s online interactions. “At the end of the day, our safety and our community’s safety is never not taken seriously…”

Springsteen spoke at a council meeting in May about the threat she received in April, which looked like it was from Paul’s city email address. Paul interrupted to clarify it did not actually come from his email.

“I am not blaming the mayor for this, I have been told that his email address was spoofed,” she said. “I am not blaming the mayor. Although his breaking in like that makes him look pretty suspicious, I would say.”

“I know, council member Springsteen, you think this is funny, but none of this is funny,” Paul said in response later in the meeting. “And sadly, a lot of it is perpetuated by folks on this council who have people in the community making just absurd allegations that are hurtful and harmful, and it needs to end.

Paul added: “We all have the opportunity to say enough is enough. And that means you too, counselor Springsteen. You can put an end to some of this yourself.”

Springsteen took the remark as Paul telling her that she “deserved it.”

“It’s a very obnoxious thing to say, and inciting further violence,” Springsteen told Colorado

Community Media. “I really feel like that’s what happened with that dialogue in terms of people who have been affected. For another politician to say, ‘Well, she could have prevented it,’ it’s stirring the pot.”

As another example of how some members believe threats could have been prevented, Shahrezaei points to the Nov. 28 meeting where she received threats just minutes before it began. Council had received an email from the Jeffco chapter of Moms Demand Action, an activist group that fights for guncontrol measures, expressing an intention to propose ordinances during public comment.

According to Shahrezaei, council member Mary Janssen forwarded that email to gun-rights activists, including Rocky Mountain Gun Owners. Doing so made Shahrezaei feel like she was put in danger.

“There’s no way for me to know if (the threats are) related to the comments there, but it probably put some of us under a microscope to community members — and frankly a lot of people outside of the community — that previously hadn’t considered us in their purview,” she said.

Janseen could not be reached for comment.

“I do think there is a misrepresentation often because people aren’t really taking the time to inform themselves of what we are working on, and the priorities,” Shahrezaei added, as some

at the public comment session mistakenly believed Lakewood’s council had authored the ordinances and was going to vote on them. “And when that gets misrepresented in the community, it has created some fear-mongering and fanning of the flames of tension.”

Shahrezaei added that receiving threats “is not unique to one city counselor.

“This is a problem in our community, and I think in a postTrump world, people are emboldened to sort of say things in ways that we haven’t historically seen,” Shahrezae said.

She added that the way forward is to get to work to do “what we need to do for our community.”

Faith Christian High School closing due to multi-million dollar debt

Arvada Christian high school acquired by Grace Church; K-8 to remain open under FCA

BY RYLEE DUNN

Faith Christian High School in Arvada will be closing at the end of the 2022-2023 school year due to mounting debt, Faith Christian Superintendent Andrew Hasz and Pastor Jason King announced in a video message to families.

The high school, located on Carr Street, has been acquired by Grace Church of Arvada for $12 million. Grace will reopen the high school for the 2023-2024 school year under a new name and leadership team, according to Grace Church Pastor Rick Long.

Faith Christian’s K-8 school, located on Ward Road, will remain open under Faith Christian Academy’s banner.

Hasz did not respond for comment by press time but said a representative from the school would be available for an interview with Colorado Community Media within the next couple of days.

2021 but mounting fi nancial woes had been plaguing the church over the past two decades, according to King’s comments in the video message to families, posted to YouTube on Nov. 18.

The ministry’s K-8 was founded in Denver in 1971, with the high school opening the following year.

In an interview with the Arvada Press last year, Hasz said the school’s total K-12 enrollment was “a little under 850,” a fi gure he said was up 100 from the previous school year. Hasz said his father Martin founded the school with the goal “to have a school where the focus on God could be central and students would be encouraged to have a personal relationship with Jesus.”

Faith also has been embroiled in a number of high-profi le lawsuits, including a racial discrimination suit fi led by former teacher Gregg Tucker and a suit fi led by FCA against the Jefferson County Public Health Department over the department’s COVID-19 protocols.

The discrimination suit is ongoing after the 10th Circuit Court declined to review it en banc, while JCPH was granted an injunction in the COVID lawsuit.

Long said that he was a parent at Faith Christian when Tucker was fi red and that he was aware of FCA’s lawsuits, stating that Grace Church’s legal team would be “investigating every single detail” of the events that begat the legal proceedings.

“When we launch, with whoever we launch with, we’ll be sure it’s exactly the standards and ideals of Grace Church,” Long said. “We pull no punches with how we operate as a ministry.”

Financial woes

In the video, King said that between 1991 and 2000, FCA took out a $6.8 million loan to purchase its Carr Street campus. In 2002, Faith took out an additional $14.2 million to fi nance the building of its worship center.

In 2014, the ministry converted

the interest-only load to a conventional load, and by 2017, the ministry had only paid off about $1.4 million, leaving Faith with a debt of $19 million. At that point, the ministry began working to cut its overhead, with King stating that they were “led of the Lord.”

“The Board of Elders felt that the Lord was leading us to make some decisions that were diffi cult, but we truly believe they were led of the Lord,” King — who became Faith’s pastor in 2017 — said.

“From day one decided, we’re going to live between our means, we’re going to trim the fat, we’re going to restructure, we’re going to run lean and run hard.”

King said that Faith has paid down $4 million of the $19 milliondollar debt. Nevertheless, with a looming $7 million balloon payment due in June, the ministry’s Board of Elders unanimously decided to sell the Carr Street property to Grace Church, which

Victim describes attack on RTD

A dozen teens beat rider

BY OLIVIA YOUNG CBS NEWS COLORADO

Oct. 14 was a typical Friday afternoon for Zachary Chopko. He hopped on the light rail to head back to work after his lunch break.

“It was just supposed to be a quick thing you know just jump on the light rail, it’s one stop,” said Chopko, of Lakewood.

When he boarded the RTD eastbound W line at the Garrison station, he noticed the only other passengers were a group of teens. Listening to music, he didn’t acknowledge them, but out of the blue, they attacked.

“I got on, I got hit in the back of the head and they just started beating me,” said Chopko.

Punching and kicking Chopko, the teens screamed profanities. The violent attack was caught on video and shared with CBS News Colorado.

“I was being pushed, I was being hit, I don’t know,” said Chopko. “It was just anarchy. A rampage. Just horrible.”

Chopko somehow stumbled out of the train and flagged down a police officer, but the kids were already gone. He rushed to the hospital, where he learned the extent of his

injuries.

“Concussions, ribs, stitches in my eyes, my face, my ears, everything was messed up,” said Chopko.

But as Chopko began his recovery, the group appeared to strike again. On Nov. 3, a 47-year-old man was assaulted by a group of teens on another light rail train. According to the district attorney’s office, the victim broke several bones and required facial reconstruction surgery.

“This is not the only incident. I mean, it happened more than once,” said Chopko, “It makes you look at the world differently.”

Now Chopko is angry, traumatized and asking why.

“This is past kids,” said Chopko. “This is adult behavior. It’s primitive behavior, it’s something adults shouldn’t be doing.”

The Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office has arrested 13 teenagers between the ages of 15 and 17 for assault. Nine are charged in Chopko’s case and seven in that second attack weeks later. There are three teens who allegedly took part in both attacks. All involved teenagers are currently being charged as juveniles.

This story appears as part of an active newsgathering agreement between Colorado Community Media and CBS News Colorado.

A witness recorded the attack that happened to a 45-year-old-man at a Lakewood RTD station on Oct. 14. The teens have been charged with Second Degree Assault.

Today, 10-year-old Jewell Jaussi understands that the holiday season is about giving. But that wasn’t always the case.

“When I was younger,” she said, “I thought Christmas was just about gifts.”

Something that helped her realize this is her family’s tradition of donating to the Light the World Giving Machines.

“Giving Machines are just like vending machines, but instead of getting stuff for yourself, you’re (purchasing) something for others,” Jaussi said.

Vending machines for donations

The Giving Machines are part of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ annual Light the World holiday initiative. The Giving Machines provide a unique opportunity for people to give to others, said Craig McIlroy, team lead for the Denver Giving Machines’ Organizing Committee.

“There’s a lot that divides us and (the Giving Machines) bring us together in a common purpose,” McIllroy said. “I think everybody agrees we should help those in need.”

How it works is people visit the

Giving Machine — this year’s Denver machine will be located at Writer Square downtown — and select an item to donate to a charity. Upon selection, the donor is given a card-like receipt of their purchase. One hundred percent of every dollar contributed goes directly to

the participating charities, and all overhead is covered through other sources, McIlroy said.

This year, donors can choose from items that range in price from $5 to $250. A few examples include children’s bandages for $8, a kit of hygiene products for $30 and spon-

soring a community garden for $250. Multiple donations can be made in a single transaction.

The Giving Machines “are a great example of how anyone can give at any amount to come together and support our community” and Metro Caring’s mission, said Brandon McKinley, communications and marketing specialist for Metro Car-

Metro Caring is a Denver-based nonprofit that provides nutritious food to people while working to address the root causes of hunger. It is one of the local charities benefitting from the Giving Machine this year.

A family tradition

The Jaussi family — which consists of mother Heather; father Steven; Jewell; James, 7; and Adelaide, 1 — has been donating to the Denver Giving Machine since 2019.

“I love this tradition because it brings us together as a family to go serve and help others in need,” Jewell Jaussi said.

The tradition begins each year when the family visits the Giving Machine’s website to decide which items each family member wants to purchase for their donation. Then, donning their Light the World garb, the Jaussi family commutes from their Highlands Ranch home to attend the Unwrapping event in Denver, which is the Giving Machine’s annual launch and takes place near

the Thanksgiving holiday.

The drive home from the Unwrapping event is an opportunity to discuss the ways they have given back — a significant piece of the family’s tradition, Heather Jaussi said.

Envisioning the utility of their donation helps bring awareness of global issues, she added.

“It makes such a difference to talk about these things as a family,” Heather Jaussi said. “We don’t always see or know what’s going on outside our realm. For example, when James found out there are places in the world that don’t have running water, it was eye-opening for him.”

This discovery influenced James’ first donation selection in 2019. At only age 4 at the time, he chose a waterless toilet for Water for People, a nonprofit that makes high-quality drinking water and sanitation accessible to all.

Jewell’s past donations include a goat, which helped feed families internationally; and as a self-proclaimed artist, she donated an art kit through the nonprofit, A Precious Child, because she wants others to also experience the joy of art.

This year, Jewell has decided on donating diapers because “we have a 1-year-old sister and I know how hard it is to not have diapers,” she said.

The Giving Machines come to Denver

The Giving Machines concept got

started in 2017 in Salt Lake City, and by 2018, it had expanded to five cities and raised $2.3 million for charities.

They came to Denver for the first time in 2019.

Between 30,000-40,000 people visited Denver’s machine in 2019 and again in 2021. The physical machines were not available in 2020 because of the pandemic, but people were still able to donate online.

Last year, Denverites alone purchased 17,000 donations from the Giving Machine, raising $475,786. These numbers ranked Denver at fifth out of 20 cities in donation totals.

The Giving Machines continue to expand to cities across the U.S., and will be available in 28 cities this year. Because of growing demand nationally, Denver’s sole Giving Machine downtown will be the only one in Colorado for the foreseeable future.

McIlroy attributes this success to community engagement supported by local organizations, including The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the Denver Mayor’s Office.

Participating charities

For the Denver Giving Machine, each year, five charities local to Denver and three international charities are selected by a committee composed of Mayor Hancock’s Faith Council and the Giving Machines’ Organizing Committee.

This year, the five local charities are: Metro Caring; A Precious Child, which empowers children in need to

is led by Pastor Rick Long, with King calling the move a “Kingdom Transaction” that would improve Faith’s K-8.

“In a chain of events that can only be attributed to the leading of God, Faith Church and Grace Church became the answer to each other’s prayers,” King said. “Please know, this decision was not made lightly. With this Kingdom Transaction, it will significantly reduce our debt and allow us to come closer to fully walking out God’s call and purpose for us as a ministry.

“It will also raise the level of excellence and impact in FCA K-8,” King continued. “This will also allow for the impact of Christian education in our city to rise to the level of impact we believe is needed and we were not able to do alone.”

Hasz called the decision “heartbreaking” and added that he felt that “both schools are going to be better” in the future.

“This is God’s school, so if God wants to end the high school, that’s his prerogative,” Hasz said. “The high school is going to continue in its location. There will be a name change, but there are some exciting days ahead for the high school.”

Hasz — who said he will be helping with the transition at the high school — added that Grace is looking to build a new fi eldhouse, performing arts facility and classrooms, which Long confi rmed.

“We’ve got some millions to put into (the high school),” Long said. “We’re in a fundraising mood right now.”

Hasz said that Faith is now in a “much better position” to invest in its K-8 campus.

Discrimination lawsuit

Tucker, the litigant in the lawsuit that claims that Faith fi red Tucker — who taught at FCA’s high school for 10 years —for holding a discussion on race with students, said that the school’s closure won’t impact the ongoing legal proceedings.

“This does not at all impact my ongoing litigation with the school, or (sic) any impending litigation,”

Tucker said in a Facebook post. “We recently won another appeal (en banc) with the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, and it may now be headed to the Supreme Court.”

In the post, Tucker called the closure “Really good news,” owing to the school’s “Long history of ignoring racism, sexual harass-

ment and assault, and LGBTQ bullying, and retaliating against students and teachers that speak out against those things.”

Nancy Felix, a former FCA parent whose daughter, Ramya Sinha, said she experienced racial discrimination during her time at the school, said in a Facebook post that she would celebrate “that racist school closing.”

In his Facebook post, Tucker raised concerns over the new leadership at FCA, calling Grace’s leadership “somewhat enmeshed” with FCA’s, and called for the school’s new leadership to consider the reconciliation document that was put together by parents, students and community members after Tucker’s fi ring.

“I’m concerned that what will rise in its place will not be that much different,” Tucker said.

“The leadership at Grace Church is somewhat enmeshed with the leadership at Faith Christian High School, and they were absolutely silent as the many stories about the dysfunctional leadership and toxic environment at the school came to light. So, I won’t be surprised if some of the leaders remain at the new school and some of the same problems persist.”

Long said he had not heard from Tucker nor been made aware of “any document” from the former teacher. All four of Long’s children are graduates of FCA, according to Long, who also said that the new high school would rent out FCA’s K-8 gym until a new fi eldhouse is built.

“99%” of FCA administrators will stay with Faith’s K-8, according to Long.

Moving forward

“I want a high school that is affordable but is the best high school West of the Mississippi,” Long said.

FCA hosted a community meeting for families to hear from Grace Church’s leadership on Dec. 5 at its Carr Street campus, which Long said had a “really, really great” response overall.

Long added that Grace would also operate a Center of Hope community center featuring educational programs, grief counseling and other services on the Carr Street campus after school and extracurricular hours.

Current FCA high school students will be given the option to preregister and pay their deposit for the 2023-2014 school year if they would like to attend the new school.

Regarding teachers and faculty, Long said that his team will meet with each of them individually

starting this month and evaluate their future with the Grace-run high school.

“We have to get to the point of contract with each of them,” Long said. “For me, I’ve been around the school for 35 years — I coached there, and obviously have friendships and relationships with some of them, not many of them — I want to treat this in the most honorable way and we’re going to be meeting with them individually.

“We’re going to fi nd out where they’re at and we’re going to put the very best people in positions,” Long continued. “I know they’re all aware of that and I know they’re also encouraged by the fact that if they’re the very best person, they’re going to be there.”

Long also said that he hoped to have “a quarter of our kids on scholarship of some sort,” and wanted to work with the ACE Foundation — the president of whom, Jason DiFraia, is a Grace Church leadership team member — to achieve that goal.

The new school will also have a code of conduct, according to Long.

“In a school, you have to have a code of conduct. And you have to have very — and these are teenagers, they’re still in need of having structure, and discipline and a code of conduct,” he said. “For us, we like what we have seen but a lot of times it’s not the letter of the law, it’s the spirit of the law.”

When asked what about the existing FCA legacy he would like to improve upon, Long pointed to

inclusivity as a growth area.

“I don’t think this is an either/ or, where they didn’t do this and we’re going to do this, but rather they did this and we’re going to do it better,” Long said. “Our ministry is very grace-oriented, and that means that we absolutely love people where they’re at and we love people regardless.

“And we want to have an atmosphere in the school where every teacher, every student, every parent knows that they’re loved and there’s an open line of communication,” Long continued. “Instead of just having very dogmatic ‘this is how things are’… we want to have a little more open dialogue, a little more grace. Not that they haven’t had that, but we think we as a ministry have a fi nger on the pulse of what that looks like.”

Long said the purchase of the Carr Street property will close on Feb. 1, 2023. The school will remain Faith Christian until the end of May 2023 and would reopen in August 2023 under a new name which will be unveiled after Jan. 1, 2023. Long added that Grace Church leaders are working with marketing fi rms to decide the new name.

“We are ecstatic to be able to pour into the next generation to create a Christian private education that’ll be excellent, affordable, family-friendly, and completely committed to loving others,” Long said. “There’s a difference between being a religious school and being a relationally driven school, which is what we will be.”

Red Flag laws work, but they have to be used

When Colorado passed its Red Flag law, called “Extreme Risk Protection Orders,” in 2019, El Paso County Sheriff Bill Elder announced his opposition: “I am exploring all legal options and am vigorously challenging the constitutionality of this law.”

He wasn’t alone. Many county sheriffs in Colorado said they believed the law didn’t allow enough due process or was unconstitutional.

But since then, some 20 of these so-called “sanctuary” counties have seen the light, implementing this sensible law so that weapons have been taken away from violent people. But it was not used in El Paso County’s Colorado Springs, where a man recently killed five people and wounded many others at Club Q, an LGBTQ bar.

The shooter, who survived, never had to go to court to defend himself against the Red Flag law — even after law enforcement was called in a year ago to stop him from threatening his family with a bomb.

If anyone needed to be parted from weapons, it was the Club Q shooter. But sadly, in the wake of massacres like this, we frequently learn that no action was taken earlier by either law enforcement or family.

tion order, the first

The El Paso County Sheriff’s office, in a statement to the Colorado Sun, admitted that it has never initiated an extreme risk protection order, the first step in removing a firearm from someone under Colorado law.

The Red Flag law builds in due process, as only a judge can begin the process of removing someone’s guns. A second court appearance is necessary to extend a temporary protection order beyond two weeks. While a Red Flag law is now used in 19 other states, the Associated Press found that Colorado residents invoke the law less often than residents of other states.

Why not? A major reason is the anti-democratic ideology of county sheriffs who choose what laws to enforce. Sheriffs have bought into the peculiar notion that a county has ultimate legal authority to uphold the Constitution of the United States.

One result of this old “Posse Comitatus” approach is that local sheriffs feel free to ignore state laws they don’t like. All they have to do is label them “unconstitutional.”

This attitude was on full display in several states when they issued emergency orders to curb the spread of Covid 19. Rural sheriffs in Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington and California resisted. They defied the orders of their state government and refused to enforce public health measures.

The backbone of this county approach is best represented by the Constitutional Sheriff and Peace Officer Association, a group based in Arizona and founded by Richard Mack, described by the Anti-Defamation League as an “anti-government extremist.” Mack is also credited as a founding member of the Oath Keepers, infamous for their involvement in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

In my home state of Oregon, this rhetoric has made inroads. Though a contentious ballot measure restricting magazine capacity and implementing a new firearm permitting system recently passed, several county sheriffs have joined lawsuits to prevent the reforms from going into effect. Many more of Oregon’s 36 county sheriffs have stated they will not enforce all or parts of the law.

While not all of these sheriffs may view themselves as members of the Constitutional Sheriff and Peace Officer Association, the influence of its ideology is unde-

niable.

You would think it goes without saying, but the job of a county sheriff has never been to interpret laws as they see fit. Sheriffs are elected officials entrusted by their community to apply laws fairly.Allowing sheriffs to act as supreme legal arbiters is wrongheaded and dangerous. If the El Paso County sheriff or the shooter’s family had implemented the Red Flag law, a massacre might have been prevented.

So called “Constitutional Sheriffs” couch their rhetoric and ideology as a fight to preserve liberty and justice. It is almost as if they were living in a fictionalized version of the Wild West, where a lone sheriff with a gun upholds civilization.

That is not the world we live in. Guns are not sacrosanct possessions, unstable and dangerous people should not be allowed to stockpile weapons, and activating the Red Flag law can save lives. If our sheriffs won’t uphold the laws, maybe it’s time to vote for someone who will.

Dealing with grief during the holidays

sor Heather Coats and Associate Professor of Clinical Teaching Kerry Peterson.

BY BOB MOOK SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Between gatherings with friends and family — and the “expectation” of joyfulness — the holiday season can be fraught with stress, even in the happiest of times. For those grieving the loss of a loved one, a broken relationship or a career setback, the season can be especially challenging.

One thing is for certain: There is no right way or wrong way to grieve, according to University of Colorado College of Nursing Assistant Profes-

Dr. Coats has more than 20 years of clinical experience in palliative, oncology and hospice care. Her research focuses on improving quality of communication and the psychological-social-spiritual wellbeing of people living with serious illnesses, as well as their families.

Dr. Peterson is the specialty director of CU Nursing’s Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Program. She has worked clinically with patients who are struggling with many types of grief, with an emphasis on psychotherapy and interventions for individuals who have experienced trauma and abuse.

Here are their thoughts about dealing with grief this time of year:

KRISTEN

Every season is grief season

During the holidays, many of us host or participate in gatherings and traditions with the expectation that everybody should be happy. For those and other reasons, one might think that grief would become more exacerbated, but it’s a year-long phenomenon. Still, the absence of certain loved ones might be especially noticeable in the days from Thanksgiving through New Year’s Day.

“Grieving is a process,” Coats says. “Part of the process is recognizing what the triggers are. Maybe your loved one died in summer — so, the onset of summer is the trigger. Maybe your loved one died at Christmas, so that’s a trigger. But grief is not something that should be considered or thought about only during the holidays.”

Peterson points out that people

have their own unique grief experiences. Even though a family might be grieving the same loved one, one person might feel extreme sadness while another might still experience a sense of joy and happiness during this special time.

Acknowledge your feelings

In the holiday season or any other time of the year, Coats and Peterson say that dealing with grief requires a large measure of self-forgiveness and self-care as well as understanding and setting boundaries. Allowing yourself to “feel your feelings” is an important part of grieving.

“There needs to be a recognition that the holidays create a lot of hustle and bustle,” Coats says. “But that doesn’t mean you take away the

The rich history of chocolate

Chocolate, the most beguiling, seductive natural substance, a ubiquitous aphrodisiac. Dark, white or milk? How do you like yours? Pure and simple, perhaps wrapped in foil in the form of a waterdrop? Or encasing an almond, cashew, cherry, cream or mixture of them?

The etymology of the word seems to have come from the Nahuatl, natives of southern Mexico and Central America: chikol tl. For millennia, cacao was food for and from the gods, a sacred ambrosia in Olmec, Maya, and Aztec spiritual rituals. Finding it unappealing to their delicate taste buds, the invading Europeans sweetened it with honey. It quickly found its way into the regal courts of Europe, where it remained in the domain of the nobility who jealously guarded it as their divine right. Legend has it that it became a favorite for Casanova, understandably so given its purported aphrodisiac power.

What was once sequestered in the realm of the gods and their mortal legates over time became available to the masses. Humanize the gods, dethrone their majesties and enjoy what they did. That is the power of secularism and democracy. And economics. Worldwide annual chocolate sales, now in the tens of billions of dollars, are projected to grow at increasingly higher rates.

In 1828, a Dutch chemist figured a way to reduce the cacao bean to powder, hence Dutch cocoa. Nineteen years later, Englishman Thomas Fry reversed the process and created the first chocolate bar by folding melted cacao butter back into Dutch cocoa. It did not take long before John Cadbury marketed the creamy morsels.

GRIEF

grief and put the hustle and bustle in its place so that you live in denial that the grief is there. Don’t let the hustle and bustle not allow you to grieve.”

Peterson encourages people who are grieving to reach out and get support, so that they can experience the holidays in different ways — perhaps by establishing some new traditions.

“Sometimes it might be too painful, but people who are grieving can still find comfort in keeping traditions or creating new ones to honor the memory of their loved one — such as lighting a candle or playing a favorite Christmas song,” she says. “Lean into whatever it is that harkens to things that once brought you joy with the beloved, instead of pushing it away and not thinking about it.”

In dealing with longer-term grief, Peterson recommends grief support groups because they let the bereaved connect with others who are experiencing a loss. She adds that psychotherapy and prescription medications could help those who experience prolonged grief that leads to isolation and severe depression. The latest edition of DSM-5 (the diagnostic manual used by mental health professionals) added “prolonged

By 1868, he was packaging them in a heart-shaped tin, and the rest, as ´tis said, is history. Pre-Lent to post-Lent, it is interesting to see how chocolate has become entwined with Valentine’s Day in the shape of hearts and at Easter in the form of bunnies and eggs. At Halloween, demand again spikes. And then it is pell-mell during the winter holidays as it makes the most splendid of gifts and welcoming treats for guests. I still recall my elder sister, Boots, bringing home a large box of assorted chocolates each Christmas from a local confectioner.

“One!” she’d pointedly say as she held the box. Her second rule was that if you touched it, you ate it. So I had to be judicious making my selection. One and done. Hmm…which has the cherry or coconut encased within the confines of the sweet milk chocolate?

Of course, temptation lurks during the months between because candy bars and other delectable treats fill display racks along supermarket checkout lines. And for me, dark chocolate has become my preference, although whenever a Snickers falls within my line of sight, I become melted chocolate.

What is it, though, about chocolate that makes it such a magical food? Do its inherent chemical compounds bond with welcoming, agreeable host cells in the bloodstream, creating a potion that can transform the most unlikeable character into

grief disorder” as a diagnosis earlier this year, making it easier for clinicians to identify and diagnose people who need treatment and support.

Support those who are grieving

Not everyone is at the same point in their grieving journey. If you are further along in processing grief than your friends and family, Peterson says you can best support others by asking what you could do to help and not making assumptions.

“You probably shouldn’t assume a friend isn’t ready to go to a party because she just lost her husband,” she says. “It might be helpful for her to continue with activities and social connections.”

Coats maintains that because grief is different for everyone, it is important to be “cued in” to friends and families during the holidays and beyond.

“It’s important to allow someone the space to grieve and to know that they are sad and missing someone,” she says. “It is also important to pick up on the cues that allows people to continue processing. The holidays can be a really healing space — so long as someone feels acceptance for that grief.”

Drs. Coats and Peterson discussed the new diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder in the Five to Thrive Podcast in September 2022.

Those are themes of the novel and film Chocolat. Vianne, the heroine, shows up in a French village right before Lent to open a chocolate shop. There she creates concoctions of mixed forbidden fruits conjured from the bitter-tasting cacao bean. She plants the seed of vitality in a lifeless wasteland, and soon the power of her products — chocolates in various forms from bars to drinks — work their magic.

Medical science is now providing evidence for chocolate’s health benefits, especially dark chocolate. It is being shown to reduce anxiety and clinical depression. The reason seems to be that chocolate enhances serotonin, which helps calm troubled minds. In addition, because of the high amount of flavonoids, it helps reduce cardiovascular disease risks, reduce cell damage and lower blood pressure. What’s not to love?

“Chocolat” is one of my favorite films to watch again and again. It is not only a fun tale, but it also serves to remind us to let go of our uptightness and enjoy life.

Chocolate has a rich history to back up its power. As we know, a cup of hot chocolate on a wintry day can warm any heart. So let me suggest a way out of our quagmire. Mimic Vianne. During the holiday season,host a serotonin-enhancing chocolate party at which every dish and cocktail is chocolate based. Invite every morally, socially, or politically priggish stiff and bahhumbugging Christmas-stealing grinch you know and a few others to sweeten the mix.

You have nothing to lose and much to gain. You might develop lifelong friendships, and your sweet tooth will be pleased. And since chocolate is far better for your health than eggnog, your heart will thank you.

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER THE COLORADO SUN

Hundreds of the nation’s most elite athletes in indoor rock climbing just had their version of the Super Bowl in Denver.

As the Olympic sport expands across the U.S. and Colorado, USA Climbing’s national championship last month was a sort of homecoming. The governing body in 2018 moved from its longtime home in Boulder to new headquarters in Salt Lake City.

“We definitely wanted to have a presence back in Colorado. That’s where USA Climbing got its feet off the ground,” said Ben Lowe with USA Climbing.

Sold-out crowds at The Spot climbing gym in Denver and G1 Climbing in Broomfield cheered as climbers — a mix of past and potential Olympians — tested themselves in three disciplines: 50-foot sport-climbing routes, a speed competition and short, powerful boulder problems.

Athletes made it as far as they could on routes designed to test their strength, agility and coordination.

In the sport climbing finals, only one athlete, Sean Bailey, completed a route without falling. He reached the top to raucous applause after battling a series of angled, plastic blocks screwed into the wall. The route required him to lunge toward small plastic rock holds with the tips of his fingers, hook his heels to pull his body up and swing across the wall while hanging on by only a few fingers.

The competition marked the end of the indoorclimbing season, but also provided an opportunity for new and returning climbers to begin scoring points to qualify for next year’s national team.

Once on the national team, athletes travel the world, competing in the International Federation of Sport Climbing’s World Cups. They also get the chance to try out for the team going to the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

A surge in popularity

Indoor climbing started as a way for climbers to train during the offseason. Now, it’s blossomed into one of the fastest-growing Olympic sports. One that Coloradans are eating up.

In 2000, there were about 150 climbing gyms in the nation. Now, there are nearly 600, according to the Climbing Business Journal.

“It’s been a pretty massive surge in popularity, not just over the past two or three years though, it’s been seeing massive growth over the past 10 years,” said Lowe, the communications director for USA Climbing.

The indoor climbing industry is firmly anchored in Colorado with dozens of gyms across the state and a host of indoor equipment manufacturers thriving along the Front Range.

“Definitely explosive (growth) here in Colorado,” said Dan Howley, founder of The Spot gyms in Boulder and Denver. The Spot has hosted several past national climbing competitions and was home to bouldering nationals at their Denver location this year.

While USA Climbing is working to grow the sport around its new Salt Lake City base, Colorado athletes and fans continue

to be a big part of the sport.

“There’s always been a lot of really great athletes, especially young athletes, that have come out of Colorado. It’s got a long history in competitive rock climbing,” Lowe said. “Whenever somebody starts climbing the ranks and we hear they’re from Colorado, that’s definitely no surprise.”

That’s in part because of Boulder’s enduring ties to the sport.

“In the last 20 years, the Boulder area is sort of the Hollywood of rock climbing,” said Jason Haas, founder of G1 Climbing, “and if you’ve wanted to make a name for yourself in rock climbing you’ve had to live here.”

Two athletes from Colorado, Brooke Raboutou, 21, of Boulder, and Colin Duffy, 18, of Broomfield, already qualified for the national team trials in March. Both participated in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, but the next Olympic trials have not yet been scheduled.

SEE CLIMBING, P17

Members and staff from both G1 and The Spot also competed in nationals, with at least one making finals.

While it may be a few years before USA Climbing comes back to Colorado for nationals, both gyms say they hope to continue hosting other regional and local competitions. The Spot hosts four bouldering competitions every year and G1 hosts another. There are also USA Climbing youth, high school and collegiate competitions across the state. Indoor versus outdoor climbing

The burgeoning sport is still at a point where fans can easily interact with the top athletes. During finals the weekend of Nov. 12, climbers battled the problems and routes set for them while spectators casually rubbed elbows with Olympians and other legends of the sport.

Nathaniel Coleman, a silver medalist at the Tokyo Olympics, was among the crowd along with Raboutou and Duffy. Kyra Condie, another Olympian, at nationals won the bronze medal in lead climbing and was fifth in bouldering.

“It’s like going to the World Series but the local community doesn’t get to meet the star athletes in the NBA playoffs or the Super Bowl,” Haas said. “They don’t get to shake hands with Peyton Manning and have a conversation with him. But in climbing we’re still at that level where you can.”

While the sport began with a strong connection with outdoor climbing, most agree the two have started to diverge.

“A lot of the routes that are set for these pros are now incorporating gymnastic, parkour-type movements,” Howley said, “physical move-

ment that you’re not going to find you’re able to do safely outside.”

Indoor climbing also offers a new, unique option for people interested in overall fitness, Lowe said.

“There’s a lot of people out there who have a hard time going into a typical gym to run on the treadmill or lift weights for a few hours,” Lowe said. “They want something they can actually actively engage with and challenge themselves not only physically but also mentally.”

Howley calls himself a “hardcore evangelist” for the sport.

“Indoor climbing has made this sport accessible and visible and popular to a larger community that maybe otherwise wouldn’t have been exposed to it, and to me that’s nothing but good,” he said. “Climbing makes people better as humans, it does so much for you. … It’s really good for the individual, it’s good for your soul and it’s food for building communities that care about each other and support each other.”

Now, USA Climbing and gym owners are working to make the sport more accessible to everyone.

Haas said it’s a pivotal time to make sure the sport grows and doesn’t turn into a fad that comes and goes. He said that growth lies in accessibility to the non-rock climber.

He hopes for a day when people understand climbing like they do basketball or football.

Vail Film Festival brings the world into viewers’ homes

For those who have never attended a film festival, the prospect of navigating all the screenings and events can be a little daunting. Plus, there’s the added challenges of finding time to eat between movies and getting from one theater to another. It can all be a bit much.

So, while one does miss out on some of the camaraderie that is part of the in-person experience, it’s difficult to argue with the flexibility and convenience that virtual festivals provide.

The 19th annual Vail Film Festival, which ran from Thursday, Dec. 1 through Sunday, Dec. 4, provided virtual viewers the same thoughtfully curated films (all of which highlight the work of female filmmakers) as ever and allowed them to peruse the more than 20 offerings from the comfort of their couch.

“The challenge and focus this year was curating the film program. Since it is online, we wanted to make sure we selected a variety of films that would complement each other and hopefully be entertaining and inspiring for the audience,” explained Scott Cross, co-executive director of the festival, in an email interview. “Film is such an immersive art form, and can be transformative as well as entertaining. We hope audiences come away feeling entertained and maybe having discovered a new filmmaker or filmmakers whose work has moved them in some way.”

During this year’s festival I saw 10

COMING ATTRACTIONS

films over four days and have selected four favorites — stories that moved me, made me laugh and rethink how I see the world.

‘The Cave of Adullam’ Release date: Available now on ESPN+

The work Jason Wilson does in the documentary “The Cave of Adullam” is truly god’s work. His passion and impact brims over in every frame of the film.

In the heart of Detroit, Wilson’s dojo — the titular cave — specifically focuses on giving young Black boys the best chance possible at living the lives they want and deserve. While he does teach martial arts, he focuses just as much time and energy on emotional stability and discipline, mental health and achieving goals. And the work is immensely difficult, but totally doable. Seeing the young boys taking the first steps towards becoming the men they want to be is some of the most powerful storytelling you’ll see all year.

“The Cave of Adullam,” just like Wilson, means to challenge and inspire. Both succeed on all fronts.

‘Dear Thirteen’ Release date: TBA

Honestly, I haven’t the faintest idea how kids today do it. Growing up has never been easy, but with the technology and social media options young people have access to nowadays, there are challenges that I never considered when I was young.

Alexis Neophytides’ eye-opening documentary, “Dear Thirteen,” takes viewers all over the world to show the vast variety of what it means to be 13 years old in modern societies. The children in the film are wise beyond their years and yet achingly youthful. This is the kind of movie that sends you back into your own past to look at how you have grown and changed over the years, and yet it’s never preachy or condescending.

We put an awful lot on kids these days and the film explores what they actually want from the word and their lives. It’s the best kind of documentary — both enlightening and entertaining.

‘My Sister Liv’ Release date: TBA

“My Sister Liv” is the kind of film that absolutely knocks you flat. And it should — that’s the point.

The Alan Hicks documentary, which takes place in Colorado, follows sisters Tessa and Liv as they navigate the challenges of growing up with social media, depression and anxiety. While there have been great steps forward made in the areas of mental health and suicide awareness,

there are still all kinds of stigmas and shame that teens and youths must deal with. You get to hear firsthand from those struggling with these very issues and that just reaches in and grabs your heart. It is so powerful to see how it impacts daily life for so many.

This film is a heartbreaking call to arms — one that everybody should watch.

‘We Burn Like This’ Release date: Available now on streaming platforms

Delicate business is being conducted in “We Burn Like This,” Alana Waksman’s devastating exploration of contemporary antisemitism in rural America.

The film follows Rae (an arresting Madeleine Coghlan), a young woman living in Billings, Montana, as she navigates a life full of challenges and prejudices. She has her best friend Chrissy B. (the reliably great Devery Jacobs), but not much else.

The audience is treated to a searing portrait of strength and weakness as Rae tries to find steady footing in unsteady times. Whether or not you’ve faced similar challenges as Rae, there’s no denying the film’s power and dedication to its message. This one leaves a mark.

able self-reliance.

The Giving Machine’s donations “make a difference in peoples’ lives,” said Bebe Kleinman, CEO of Doctors Care. “So many people are struggling in crisis, and getting services to lower-income populations is a wonderful gift ... provided by someone without expectation of acknowledgement. (It’s) pure generosity.”

The Jaussi family loves traditions, as well as serving others and giving back to the community, Heather Jaussi said.

“The great thing about Giving Machines is it doesn’t matter your background, your faith or religion,” Heather Jaussi said. “Everyone can come together to give back, and I think that’s what our society needs most of all.”

Free meals coming to most school districts

BY ANN SCHIMKE CHALKBEAT COLORADO

Many Colorado school districts, including Jeffco, Cherry Creek, Aurora, and Adams 12, plan to offer free school meals to all students starting in the fall of 2023 through a new state program funded with a voter-approved tax measure affecting high earners.

Of two dozen districts surveyed by Chalkbeat, 16 plan to offer universal free meals next year. But some districts remain undecided, including two of Colorado’s largest districts — Denver and Douglas County.

Brehan Riley, director of school nutrition at the Colorado Department of Education, said of school district officials, “There seems to be a lot of interest, but people are still unsure. They want to understand it a little bit better.”

Called Healthy School Meals for All, the program is meant to ensure students are getting the nutritional fuel they need to learn and eliminate the stigma that sometimes comes with the current incomebased method for doling out free meals.

The initiative comes on the heels of two school years where the federal government waived income eligibility requirements for federally subsidized meals, allowing schools to offer free breakfast and lunch to all students. The waivers expired this fall, but lawmakers and advocates found a way to bring back the free meals for next year by asking Colorado voters to approve new funding through Propo-

sition FF.

Voters said yes.

The measure will generate more than $100 million a year by reducing income tax deductions available to households earning $300,000 or more.

Many district officials are enthusiastic about the prospect of feeding more students as they did during the first two years of the pandemic. When school meals were

free under the waivers, Boulder Valley officials saw a 40% increase in students eating school meals, District 27J saw a 20-30% increase, and Aurora saw a 7-10% increase.

RSV viruses raise concern for children

Season starts early, strong

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mom Brianne Price knew respiratory illnesses could be a concern because her baby was born prematurely. Then her other child, her 4-year-old boy, came home with a cough. Soon after, Price was calling a nurse help line. Her baby also had something, except it was worse. Her baby had trouble breathing. It landed her baby in the hospital.

The girl, just shy of 6 months old, had a virus commonly called RSV. She was placed on oxygen.

The baby recovered after spending days in the hospital. Now Price, from the Littleton area, is sounding the alarm for other parents, hoping they take the spread of illnesses seriously.

“Keeping your kids home when they’re sick is super helpful,” Price said.

Her remarks came during a news conference that included Children’s Hospital Colorado officials. It turns out that her daughter was one of more than 1,400 RSV-related hospitalizations in the Denver metro area from Oct. 1 through late November, part of a season where RSV, respiratory syncytial virus, and other viruses, including the flu and

COVID, are causing more infections, prompting concerns from public health officials.

At times in recent weeks, just two intensive-care hospital beds for children were available in the entire state of Colorado. Hospital departments took patients that they normally wouldn’t and health care professionals braced themselves for a marathon season that hopefully won’t put severe strains on hospitals, like those seen during the worst spikes of the coronavirus pandemic.

“Please note that some families with less urgent health concerns may experience longer wait times in our emergency departments,” an alert message on the Children’s Hospital Colorado website says.

A cough or runny nose may not seem like a cause for concern. But health officials want people to think twice about it and take extra precautions to protect their families, classmates, coworkers and neighbors.

“We know that a mild respiratory infection in one person can be potentially a deadly infection in someone else,” Dr. Rachel Herlihy, state epidemiologist, said.

Colorado Dems eye gun-buy waiting periods

Ban on assault weapons, changes in red flag law are being discussed

BY JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

A host of changes to Colorado’s gun laws, from a ban on so-called assault weapons to tweaks to the existing red fl ag law, are already being considered by Democrats at the state Capitol in response to the shooting last month at an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs.

“Pretty much everything is on the table,” said Senate President Steve Fenberg, a Boulder Democrat. “The question now is: What seems like a priority?”

Democrats will return to the Colorado Capitol in early January with expanded majorities in both the House and Senate and facing pressure to act after the state’s latest mass shooting. Five people were killed and more than a dozen others wounded in a Nov. 19 attack on Club Q allegedly carried out by a 22-year-old shooter armed with a semi-automatic, AR-15-style rifl e. Gun policy could be the fi rst big test of Democrats’ expanded majorities at the Capitol next year. Memories of the 2013 recalls of Democratic lawmakers over tougher gun regulations adopted

in the wake of the Aurora theater shooting certainly remain, but Colorado is a different state politically than it was a decade ago, and the Democratic majorities in the House and Senate are almost guaranteed until January 2027.

“Clearly, mental stability is a

signifi cant contributing factor,” Eileen McCarron, president of Colorado Ceasefi re Legislative Action, a group that pushes for tighter fi rearm regulations, said in a written statement, “but even as hard as it is to address legislatively, we must face the elephant

in the room: assault weapons.”

Adam Shore, the group’s executive director, said Colorado needs “to get to the root of what is driving these individuals to kill others, while simultaneously reducing the mayhem by ensuring that these weapons of war are confi ned to where they truly belong — the battlefi eld.”

Auon’tai “Tay” Anderson, a Denver Public Schools board member, posted on Twitter that Democrats should immediately use their majority at the Capitol to pass a so-called assault weapons ban.

“If folks refuse to act, vote them out,” Anderson tweeted.

Fenberg, who said gun control conversations were underway even before the Club Q shootings, said a ban on so-called assault weapons is certainly a possibility. The challenge is fi guring out how to write the complicated policy, including how to defi ne what an assault weapon is, what should happen to such weapons that are already in the possession of Colorado residents and how to address people traveling to neighboring states to purchase weapons that would be prohibited in Colorado.

“I’ve always said that I support an assault weapons ban,” he said. “I don’t think in this day and age it makes sense that people can purchase weapons of war. It’s

CAG Thrift Store & Food Pantry

As the temperatures drop and inflation continues to rise, the importance of the CAG Food Pantry is more important than ever. To provide the funding needed for the increase in food supplies and growing number of families seeking food assistance (60% increase) the CAG hosted their second “Shop for a Cause” on a beautiful October Saturday afternoon. Shoppers were able to buy good quality branded clothing donated by the Golden community while enjoying the bluegrass music of the Back Yard Grass band. The event generated more than $3,400 in operating funds that will be used to buy food to supply the food pantry. “With food prices increasing so much, the need for our pantry has been growing every month, and the proceeds of the boutique sale will make a huge impact in letting us serve more people and offer more types of food,” said Executive Director Kelly Ivan.

In addition to the shopping, guests enjoyed beverages provided by several local small businesses: Miners Saloon, Golden City Brewery and High Altitude Kombucha!

The CAG team is very appreciative of the many volunteers, sponsors and guests who made this fun afternoon a great success. Stay tuned for more exciting news about our Christmas Under the Tree event coming soon. Accepting Visa/Mastercard - $10.00 minimum

something (where) we have to make sure the policy is right. I think there’s still ongoing conversations about what the policy would be.”

It’s more likely that Democrats pursue other changes to Colorado’s gun laws fi rst, such as raising the minimum age to purchase a rifl e or shotgun to 21 from 18. The minimum age to purchase handguns in Colorado is already 21.

Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, California, Rhode Island and New York are among the states where it is illegal to purchase any fi rearm if you are younger than 21.

Rep. Tom Sullivan, a Centennial Democrat who won election to a state Senate seat in November, is working on changing the minimum age to purchase a gun. He initially wanted to raise the age only for so-called assault weapons, but thinks a broader change would be easier.

“That kind of will save us having to come up with a defi nition of what assault weapons are,” said Sullivan, whose son, Alex, was murdered in the 2012 Aurora theater shooting. “And that seems to be the consensus that we’re hearing from the rest of the caucus.”

Sullivan feels the legislature should have raised the minimum age to purchase rifl es and shotguns last year.

“We had the votes, we had it put together but our leadership and the governor wouldn’t allow that to happen last year,” Sullivan said.

There are already discussions happening as well about enacting a waiting period between when someone purchases a weapon and can access it, mirroring policies in states including California and Hawaii, which have 10- and 14-day waiting periods, respectively. Illinois has a 72-hour waiting period between when someone can purchase a fi rearm and then access it.

There have been reports that the Club Q shooter may have used “ghost guns,” or homemade fi rearms that don’t have serial numbers, in the attack. Sullivan said he wants to pursue legislation to regulate those, too.

Colorado already requires universal background checks on all gun purchases and has laws limiting gun magazines to 15 rounds and requiring the safe storage of fi rearms. People whose guns are lost or stolen must make a report with law enforcement, as well, and there is a statute temporarily barring people convicted of certain violent misdemeanors from purchasing fi rearms.

Colorado counties and municipalities are also now allowed to enact gun regulations that are more stringent than the state’s policies after the legislature in 2021 repealed a preemption law.

When it comes to the red fl ag law, a 2019 policy that lets judges order the temporary seizure of

fi rearms from people deemed a signifi cant risk to themselves or others, the changes being discussed have to do with expanding who can request a seizure. Right now, law enforcement and family members are effectively the only groups allowed to petition a judge to order a seizure.

Gov. Jared Polis has expressed support for adding district attorneys to the list, while others have suggested the attorney general’s offi ce and teachers should be allowed to request seizures as well.

“We’re certainly going to take a hard look at why the red fl ag law wasn’t used in this case, in the case of the King Soopers shooter,” Polis told Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Polis, a Democrat, has been more supportive since the Club Q shooting of changing the red fl ag law and making sure that Coloradans know about it, as well as bolstering mental health offerings, than expanding the list of gun laws the state already has.

“In Colorado, we have a magazine limit — no more than 15 bullets in a magazine — so, effectively, it reduces the ability of high-powered weapons to do harm,” Polis told NBC News when discussing the prospect of a ban on so-called assault weapons.

Polis said he’d support a national effort to require additional licensure or background checks for people trying to purchase “some of the most high-powered weapons.” President Joe Biden has called for a ban on so-called

assault weapons in the wake of the Club Q shooting.

Authorities haven’t provided details about the weapons used in the Club Q shooting.

Sullivan feels it would be better for a ban on so-called assault weapons to be pursued on the federal level, since Congress has more resources. He also pointed out that assault-style weapons aren’t used in the vast majority of fi rearm deaths in the U.S.

“You’re talking to somebody whose son was murdered by a guy with an assault-style fi rearm,” he said. “I know what it can do. But what happened to us is the oneoff of the day-to-day gun violence that impacts our community.”

Incoming House Speaker Julie McCluskie, a Dillon Democrat who is still getting her leadership bearings, said her caucus has “talked about having a conversation.”

“I anticipate that just as after the Boulder shooting we will take the time to engage,” she said, referencing the 2021 attack on the Table Mesa King Soopers that left 10 people dead.

The legislature reconvenes on Jan. 9.

D’Evelyn girls hoops o to its usual running start

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

DENVER — The system of pressure defense and transition offense hasn’t changed since Chris Olson has been at the helm of D’Evelyn’s girls basketball program.

“We have been known for that forever,” D’Evelyn junior Peyton Marvel said of the Jaguars’ full-court pressure defense. “We always know what is right to do. It really feels good to start with that.”

What is beneficial for Olson this season is he has a host of returning players from the Jaguars’ Class 4A state quarterfinal squad from last year that had a 21-4 record.

“Obviously that a big part of it when you have a system,” Olson said after the Jaguars’ dominating 64-18 victory over Summit on Wednesday night. “Kids know what to do and where to go. The chemistry is even better. One year under their belts means a lot.”

D’Evelyn — No. 3 in the CHSAANow.com Class 4A rankings — belted Summit on the opening night of the Jeffco Jungle Jam tournament that is co-hosted by the Jaguars and Littleton. D’Evelyn (6-0 record) got steal-after-steal that led to layup-after-layup in the first quarter to build a comfortable 23-2 lead.

Marvel led the way with a 11 points in the first quarter. She finished with a game-high 19 points, single-handedly outscoring the Tigers (1-1).

Marvel — one of the top softball players in the state — might be one of the best all-around athletes in Jeffco. However, Olson wants to make her even more of a basketball player over the next two seasons.

“The first two years we just kind of turned her loose,” Olson said of Marvel, who averaged a double-double in points and rebounds her freshman and sophomore seasons. “This year we are challenging her a little more to be more of a basketball

player and not just an athlete. We are going to make her a better basketball player. She is fun to watch.”

Senior Rebecca Taylor hit double-digit points for the Jaguars before halftime with 11 points. The Jaguars led 38-6 at the break. Taylor finished with 16 points.

Junior Macy Scheer had a 10-point third quarter as D’Evelyn opened up a 50-point lead — 62-12 — heading to the fourth quarter. Scheer finished with 16 points.

“This has been a good message to our league that we are serious and ready,” Olson said of the Jaguars’ strong start to the season. “We want to be in the mix.”

D’Evelyn opened up the season by winning the Mountain Vista/ Rock Canyon Tournament last week. The Jaguars got victories over Class 6A programs Denver East, Rock Canyon and Chaparral.

The Jaguars will playin in the 5A/4A Jeffco League for the current 2-year cycle. The addition of 6A moved several teams up a classification, but with D’Evelyn’s enrollment numbers they stayed in 4A.

“We still have to play our hardest,” Marvel said of league that begins shortly after the Winter Break. “Teams are definitely going to be out to come for us since we just won a 6A tournament (Mountain Vista/Rock Canyon Tournament).”

D’Evelyn won its second straight tournament title by defeating Heritage and Arvada West to finish out the Jeffco Jungle Jam. The Jaguars will look to claim a third tournament title when it heads to the Palisade Tournament on the Western Slope this week.

“Every game we are trying to get better and play harder,” Olson said. “We want to be smarter than we did the last game. That is our motivation.”

Dakota Ridge shows o its o ensive firepower

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LITTLETON — Dakota Ridge demonstrated Dec. 9 how dynamic, potent and fast striking its offense can be. The Eagles — No. 4 in the CHSAANow.com Class 5A boys basketball rankings last week — put up 31 points in the second quarter at home against rival Chatfield. Four different players — Trevor Fuller, Ethan Berninger, Steff Schattinger and Logan Culp — combine for seven 3-pointers in the

quarter that pushed the Eagles lead to 46-29 at halftime.

“I was proud of them. The firstquarter nerves were real,” Dakota Ridge coach Sean Kovar said of playing in front of the large student sections for both South Jeffco teams.

“Once we settled in and got good open shots we made good basketball plays.”

Dakota Ridge would eventually win 81-66 against the Chargers (1-3 record).

All 10 players that suited for the Eagles (4-2) scored. Fuller (16 points),

Berninger (16 points), Schattinger (15 points) and Isaac Pullig (10 points) all finished in double-digits.

“I love this team with the aspect of on any given night anyone can be our leading scorer,” Kovar said. “We go 8, 9, 10 deep. We have confidence in our bench. We want to play fast and we have a lot of guys who can score.”

The Eagles bench combined for 42 points, led by Berninger and Schattinger.

Chatfield did slow down Dakota Ridge’s momentum in the second half

by speeding them up. The Chargers forced the Eagles into some turnovers in the third quarter and actually outscored them 14-11 in the quarter.

“We wanted to try to dictate the pace. We wanted to speed the game up,” Chatfield junior varsity head coach Brady Stambaugh said of the second half. “We wanted to get pressure and I felt like we executed that part of the game.”

duties for both the JV and varsity games Friday night with varsity head coach Erik Buehler missing the game. Buehler’s son was born earlier this week.

“We kind of had this planned for a while,” Stambaugh said of taking over for Buehler as he spends time with his family after the birth of their baby boy and Monday, Dec. 5. Buehler will be back on the bench next week according to Stambaugh.

Chatfield will have something to build on after playing what Stambaugh called the ‘most complete game of the season’ despite the loss. Chatfield senior Shay Rumsey finished with a game-high 20 points. Senior Cutter Painter had 14 points and junior Liam McGuire finished with 11 points for the Chargers.

“We fought through some empty positions there,” Kovar said of the third quarter. “Brady (Stambaugh) is an awesome coach. It was cool to coach against him. We used to battle as JV coaches when he was at Ralston Valley. He is a good friend of mine.”

In the end, Dakota Ridge’s dozen 3-pointers and making 7-of-8 free throws in the fourth quarter sealed the win.

“We want to win every game,” Fuller said of the mentally as the Eagles head toward Winter Break in less than two weeks.

Dakota Ridge gets another chance to face area rival and former league foe. The Eagles host Columbine in the second-game of another girls/boys varsity doubleheader that begins at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 13, at Dakota Ridge High School.

With nearly its whole team back from its 5A Jeffco League runner-up squad from last season, expectations are high with Dakota Ridge staying in 5A with the addition to 6A for the current 2-year cycle.

“There is defintely more pressure and that is what makes it fun,” Fuller said of the Eagles being the favor to win their conference and expected to make a deep playoff run. “It makes it better when everyone is fighting to beat us. We don’t want to be too cocky. We want to just go out and play.”

Kovar isn’t looking far ahead of what his team has coming up after

CROWSS UP DRO ELZZ

Winter Break.

“We are big on focusing on the next play, the next practice,” Kovar said. “We don’t think down the road or look at our ranking. It’s all about getting better. Coming to practice to get a little bit better each day. We are having fun. It’s a great team to coach. They are getting some deserved recognition and it’s a credit to their hard work.”

Chatfield stays on the road. The Chargers head to Brighton to face the Bulldogs on Tuesday next week. The newly formed 6A Jeffco League is something that Stambaugh and Buehler are excited about.

“We love going twice,” Stambaugh said of the 7-team 6A Jeffco League playing each other in home and away games for a 12-game conference schedule that begins the second week of January. “I think it is important that Jeffco stays true that, play each other twice to have a true league championship. We have been fighting for that.”

The Petition requests that the name of Rosa Maria Emiliano Herrell be changed to Rosemary Emiliano Herrell Case Number: 22C39323

The Petition requests that the Court enter a Order addressing issues involving the children such as, child support, allocation of parental responsibilities, (decision-making and parenting time), attorney fees, and costs to the extent the Court has jurisdiction.

numbers of patients with respiratory illnesses in its emergency departments. By itself, health officials might manage the upsurge. But flu and COVID are also circulating, fueling concerns about stretched resources.

One children’s health official wasn’t sure how the combination of a holiday school break and holiday gatherings might affect the trends. But one thing’s for sure: Health care workers expect the situation to continue into the new year, said Dr. Kevin Carney, associate chief medical officer for Children’s Hospital Colorado.

That’s even if RSV slows down — because the flu started ramping up in November, Carney said.

“We are pretty much mentally preparing to have no break between these respiratory infections,” Carney said, adding, “I don’t see a scenario in the next month or two where we don’t have very busy emergency departments and inpatient units.”

Then there’s COVID. Colorado listed 440 people as “currently hospitalized” with coronavirus the week of Nov. 29, with numbers trending upward. For instance,

there were just 145 hospitalizations the week of Sept. 20.

The state also posted a seven-day average of eight deaths among COVID cases on Nov. 19, up from an average of three deaths about a month earlier.

But when it comes to kids, health officials are focused on RSV.

“For influenza, most of our hospitalizations have been among adults, and then we see really the inverse of that for RSV,” Herlihy said, emphasizing the risk to children, during a separate news conference.

Most children get an RSV infection by the time they are 2 years old, according to the state health department. Some infants and young children may be at higher risk for more-severe illness from RSV, such as bronchitis or pneumonia.

The illness is more pervasive this year because young children now have less built-up immunity, according to a University of Chicago Medicine article.

Earlier in the pandemic, due to masking and social distancing, young children were not exposed to common germs, according to the article. Now, some 1- and 2-year-olds are experiencing their first RSV infection, the article says.

Carney, the Children’s Hospital doctor, told news reporters his

buildings are packed.

“Our hospital continues, at all of our sites, to be really functioning at 100% capacity in all of our units,” Carney said.

Possible peak, but more around corner

It is possible RSV cases have peaked, but the hospital is still contending with high numbers of patients — and it has seen a “significant uptick” in the number of patients showing up who have known influenza, Carney said.

It all adds up to mean that the end of respiratory illness season is a long way off, Carney said.

“It’s the million-dollar question what’s going to happen after Thanksgiving for us. Historically, we can sometimes count on when kids are out of school that infectious diseases will decrease,” Carney said.

But as people travel and get together with family and friends, viruses tend to spread, Carney added.

Colorado has seen 517 flu hospitalizations from Oct. 2 through Nov. 26, according to the state’s flu data webpage. And the flu season could be more severe than in recent years, officials say.

Hospitals scramble to handle child patients

As of Nov. 17, there were only two pediatric intensive-care unit, or

ICU, beds available in Colorado, according to the state health department.

More recently, there were still just two available pediatric ICU beds out of 94 in the state as of Nov. 29, the department told CCM.

“The number of hospital beds is dynamic and refers to staffed beds, not physical beds,” the department said in a statement. The number depends on how many qualified health care professionals are available to work those beds.

Hospitals have taken action to expand capacity, with adult hospitals “starting to admit teenagers into their adult ICUs that they previously wouldn’t have seen,” Scott Bookman, director of the state Division of Disease Control and Public Health Response, said.

“They are also starting to bring much younger patients into their neonatal intensive-care units that traditionally wouldn’t serve this population,” Bookman said.

He added: “We’re also seeing adult hospitals simply being able to hold onto many of these children at their facilities rather than needing to transfer them to a pediatric center.”

Children’s Hospital Colorado, a system with locations around the Denver metro area and in Colorado Springs, has asked for help from adult hospitals, Carney said.

Notice: Colorado Revised Statutes §14-10-123, provides that upon the filing of a Petition for Allocation of Parental Responsibilities by the Petitioner and Co-Petitioner, or upon personal service of the Petition and Summons on the Respondent, or upon waiver and acceptance of service by the Respondent, an automatic temporary injunction shall be in effect against both parties until the Final Order is entered, or the Petition is dismissed, or until further Order of the Court. Either party may apply to the Court for further temporary orders, an expanded automatic temporary injunction, or modification or revocation under §14-10-125, C.R.S. A request for genetic tests shall not prejudice the requesting party in matters concerning allocation of parental responsibilities pursuant to §14-10124(1.5), C.R.S. If genetic tests are not obtained prior to a legal establishment of paternity and submitted into evidence prior to the entry of the final order, the genetic tests may not be allowed into evidence at a later date.

Automatic Temporary Injunction – By Order of Colorado law, you and the other parties:

1. Are enjoined from molesting or disturbing the peace of the other party; and

2. Are restrained from removing the minor child(ren) from the state without the consent of all parties or an Order of the Court modifying the injunction; and

3. Are restrained, without at least 14 days advance notification and the written consent of all other parties or an Order of the Court,

from cancelling, modifying, terminating, or allowing to lapse for nonpayment of premiums, any policy of health insurance or life insurance that provides coverage to the minor child(ren) as a beneficiary of a policy.

If you fail to file a Response in this case, any or all of the matters above, or any related matters which come before this Court, may be decided without further notice to you.
