County opens law enforcement training center Flatrock offers firearms, driving, defensive tactics training

By Tammy Kranz

tkranz@ourcoloradonews.com When Adams County sheriff deputies needed to refresh their driving skills they had to go to two locations — an abandoned subdivision in Castle Rock and to Georgetown Lake during the winter for ice driving practice.

Firearm training was done off Riverdale Road and defensive tactics training was performed wherever there was an empty

room.

Now deputies, and other law enforcement agencies in the area, can use the new Adams County Flatrock Regional Training Center that opened Aug. 24 at 23600 E. 128th Ave. in Commerce City. The $10.5 million facility offers firearms, driving and defensive tactics training at one centralized location. “(Flatrock) really cuts down on travel time and allows us to work on a lot of different skills,” said Adams County Sheriff’s Office Division Chief Mike McIntosh. “Taking all our vehicles that deputies use down to Castle Rock to do driver training was not

Feds provide clarity on fuzzy pot position

By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com The federal government finally provided clarity on Colorado’s marijuana laws on Aug. 29, with the Department of Justice issuing guidance saying that prosecutors will not seek to block recreational pot use and sales here — so long as the newly-created industry abides by state regulations.

However, the memo does spell out priority cases involving serious marijuana-related offenses that federal prosecutors will continue to investigate, regardless of state laws. And it maintains that marijuana possession, cultivation and distribution of the drug will remain a federal crime.

Still, the memo makes it clear that federal prosecutors won’t be beating down doors POSTAL ADDRESS

of most recreational pot users in Colorado any time soon.

The clarity provided by Attorney General Eric Holder’s office has been a long-timecoming for many around the state, who have sought guidance from the feds ever since Colorado voters passed Amendment 64 last year — the ballot measure that legalized recreational pot use and sales.

“This is a good thing,” said state Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge. Jahn played an instrumental role in crafting regulations associated with Amendment 64 during this year’s legislative session. “It’s not a matter of this being something that was statuatorial. This was citizen-driven and put into the (state) Constitution. How do you not respect that?”

The AG’s Office memo reiterates that “the

federal government has traditionally relied on states and local law enforcement agencies to address marijuana activity through enforcement of their own narcotics laws.”

The memo also says that the federal government has left “lower-level or localized (marijuana) activity to state and local authorities (to deal with).”

But the guidance from the justice department makes it clear that federal prosecutors will continue to make marijuana enforcement determinations, depending on the seriousness of the case.

The department laid out eight “enforcement priorities” where the feds will continue to devote resources, “regardless of Pot continues on Page 15

Northglenn and Thornton police are investigating two unrelated officer-involved shootings that happened over the holiday weekend.

On Monday, Sept. 2, at about 12:45 p.m., Northglenn police officers were dispatched to a burglary in progress in the 11400 block of Fowler Drive. Upon arrival, officers were confronted by a man armed with a knife.

Officers ordered the man to drop the knife, the suspect refused and charged at them, according to police. One officer fired his weapon, striking the suspect at least twice.

The suspect was transported to the Denver Health Medical Center for treatment.

No officers were injured during the incident and no additional information is being released at this time. If anyone has information regarding this incident, they are asked to call Sgt. Ron Haralson at 303-450-8872.

On Friday, Aug. 30, at about 7:29 p.m., Thornton police were dispatched to 2642 E. 98th Place, in reference to an intoxicated adult male threatening people with a bat.

Preliminary investigation indicates that when officers arrived they contacted the suspect, armed with a bat and a knife, in the front yard of the residence. According to police, the man charged at police, who made multiple commands for the suspect to drop the weapons. One officer used a Taser, which was ineffective and did not stop the suspect.

A second officer shot the man, who later died of his injuries.

The man’s identity is not being released at this time pending notification of next of kin. The Adams County Coroners Office will determine the manner and cause of death.

One officer has been placed on paid administration leave pending the outcome of the investigation by the Adams County Critical Incident Team.

Display puts hunger in the picture The 22 8-by-10-inch photographs are simply set in a display case in the airy lobby of the Denver Public Library’s central branch. On an early Saturday afternoon, men and women, old and young, stroll by on the marble floors. A few glance at the images — portrayals of lives lived with hunger — but so far today no one stops.

Most never see the stories just beyond the glass, much the way many never see the hunger hidden among us every day.

“It’s something I hear a lot since I’ve been talking to people about poverty — `You’re not the average homeless person; you’re not the average hungry person,’” says Caroline Pooler, 53, who came to know hunger and homelessness after losing her job two years ago. Three of the photographs in the case are hers. “There really is no average hungry or homeless person. They can be someone who’s working full-time and they’re not going to get lunch that day because they have to give lunch to their kids.”

Caroline and nine other women are participating in Hunger Through My Lens, an innovative project by the advocacy organization Hunger Free Colorado that gave them digital cameras to document how they see a world without consistent and healthy sustenance.

The goal is simple, project manager Lauren Flax says: Give the experts, those who know what it’s like to be hungry, a platform to voice their opinions and help shape answers to what should be a solvable issue.

“We really believe there is a solution to ending hunger,” Flax says. “Just as there are many solutions, there needs to be multiple people coming up with them. Who better than the hungry?”

The women are a diverse group. They are Latino, African-American and white, ranging in age from 22 to late 60s. They are mothers and grandmothers in Jefferson and Adams counties, Denver and Aurora.

Some have lived in systemic poverty since they were children. Some live an “average, normal, middle-class life but they go to bed hungry every night, hiding it even from

their church groups,” Flax says. Some have made bad choices, either through lack of education, access to resources or circumstances.

But all share the common denominator of having experienced the isolating and desperate hunger that comes when you don’t know how or when you’ll have your next meal. Through their photographs, they hope to provide a glimpse for others — perhaps a dawning understanding — into that world.

“It’s a way to put faces to statistics,” Flax says. “It’s easy to forget a number. It’s a lot harder to forget a face or a story.”

First, the statistics, compiled from various federal and state reports: • One in six Americans in the U.S., and nearly one in four children, are food-insecure.

• More than 25 percent of working families in Colorado don’t have enough food to meet basic needs.

• An estimated 270,000 children in Colorado, or 22 percent of all children, live in food-insecure households.

• Colorado has the fastest-growing rate of childhood poverty in the country.

The numbers are astonishing.

And here are Caroline’s stories, told in her photographs, which she titled: • “Reverse Disparity,” a photograph of two banana clumps. One is full, fresh and smooth yellow, selling for 59 cents a pound in a grocery store in an affluent neighborhood. The other is in a smaller, privately owned grocery 30 blocks away in a neighborhood considered a “food desert” be-

cause it has no large supermarkets offering healthy options within a mile. These three bananas are slightly bruised, for sale at 89 cents a pound.

“I’m certainly not faulting that grocer,” Caroline says. “We need that grocer in that area.” But lower quality food for higher prices is the reality.

• “Farming for Food Sustenance for the Heart.” A close-up of an orange nasturtium, taken in an urban garden in which Caroline was working.

“I really did find that while I was on my hands and knees trying to feed myself, people in suits and briefcases were looking in and wishing that was them. I am the lucky one in so many ways,” she says, “pulling my food from the ground.”

• “Ancestral Meals.” A photo of a Cambodian family’s ceremonial meal, spread out in bowls and prepared in honor of ancestors for a holiday.

“It’s an inside look at the diversity of the culture here in Denver and Colorado and how those cultural food needs must be met as well,” Caroline says.

Although Caroline began struggling when she lost her job working in a medical research office, she initially resisted applying for food stamps, turning instead to urban gardening as a way to feed herself.

She took the bottle cap- and cigarettestrewn lot of a friend and began tilling and planting the soil until it flowered into an organic garden in which she harvests tomatoes for a nearby bodega, and lettuce, squash, eggplants and green beans for herself. A nonprofit restaurant, which operates on donations, uses her produce to cook her lunch.

Local food banks also helped. But last November, one turned her and others away when it ran out of food. The memory still brings tears. “I just walked down the street and cried, more so for the thought of the moms that were turned away.”

Shortly after that, she applied for food stamps. And “it has been a blessing to go to the grocery store and really meet my

nutritional needs.”

An artist also, she considers her work with Hunger Free Colorado among her most important. The organization offers training on how to advocate for hunger issues before local governments and agencies to those who, like Caroline, want their voices to be heard and want to make a lasting difference for others in their shoes.

In October, Caroline starts a school program she hopes will lead to a job that can provide her with the stability to provide not only for herself, but also for her 24-year-old son, who despite his job still finds himself hungry at times.

“I would like to buy groceries every two weeks and take them over to his house,” she says — just the way she used to.

Back at the exhibit at the library, a woman glances at the photographs as she walks by. She slows down, and backtracks for a closer look.

The photo of a hand-scrawled sign — “Will Work 4 Food” — caught her attention.

“It just made me want to look,” Susan Wolinsky, 71, a retired lawyer, says. “I just think it’s pretty sad that in this country people don’t have enough to eat … People who have full stomachs have a better chance of being productive citizens and of helping others.”

She was surprised to find out she was one of only two passersby in an hour who had studied the exhibit, which will travel to four Adams County libraries, the 16th Street Mall in Denver and Hunger Free Colorado’s Oct. 1 Hunger Summit.

“It’s too bad,” Wolinsky says, “that some of the photographs aren’t on billboards towering over the city so that people have no choice but to look at them.”

Indeed. That would put big faces on the big numbers that are hunger in Colorado.

Anythink York hosts program to boost girls’ tech skills, self-image

By Tammy Kranz

tkranz@ourcoloradonews.com In an effort to expose young women to technology and to get them to use it for social justice, Anythink York has partnered with the University of Colorado to offer CompuGirls.

CompuGirls is a two-month long program that will be held every Saturday in September and October at Anythink York, 8990 York St. in Thornton on the Mapleton Public Schools Skyview Campus. The participants range in age from 13 to 17.

“Research shows that both women and women of color are underrepresented in the STEM fields; CompuGirls was created to address this need,” said Tiffany Lloyd, CompuGirls site coordinator and program assistant. “The hope is that the early exposure to technology gives girls the confidence and knowledge to pursue careers in these fields.”

Anythink teen guide Michelle Hawkins said the program helps the girls gain a sense of self-confidence and a host of research and technology skills that will benefit

them throughout their academic and professional careers.

“It’s not just learning technology for technology sake, it’s to give the girls a voice and explore a topic relevant to them,” she said.

The curriculum is divided into three sessions. Girls use imovie to design a video documentary that expresses their thoughts on their chosen social justice topic during the first topic. The second session focuses on representations of women in the media.

“Participants use Scratch, an animation and programming software to create digital and interactive representations of themselves in order to examine the ways in which their self-concept is influenced by the stereotypes and ideals of the greater society,” Lloyd said. “The third and final curriculum component allows the girls to explore the ideas of identity and bias through Jokaydia, an online virtual world environment.”

Hawkins said that the slots filled quickly for the program, but that CompuGirl may run the program at another site nearby to accommodate other applicants, but nothing has been formalized.

Federal Heights business takes butter to the next level Now in 20 retail stores, Epicurean Butter continues to spread

By Ashley Reimers

areimers@ourcoloradonews. com In 2004, Janey and John Hubschman came up with the idea of producing and selling compound flavored butters.

They called their endeavor Epicurean Butter, and at the time were the only retailer to take simple butter and spice it up. Now the couple’s butter is sold in over 20 retail stores across the country including Whole Foods and most recently, Sprouts.

And this delectable product is created right here in Federal Heights.

“A light bulb just kind of went off. We were looking for a business and with my background in restaurants I noticed there wasn’t a retail flavored butter product,” John said. “In restaurants they make is as a matter of course every day, but there wasn’t a prod-

uct out there on the marker for the public, so we decided to start our own company.”

Janey and John moved Epicurean Butter into their Federal Heights building at 9355 Elm Court in January 2011. Every week the couple is busy making and packaging 15 different butter flavors, with the help of their four-person production team Rosa Morales, Jessica Bermejo, Leopoldo Villegas and Renato Alvarez, who have all been with the couple from the beginning. With experience as a chef in fine dining, John created each flavor and continues to create new flavors for custom orders.

He gets his compound butter and freshly frozen herbs from California and his spices from Denver-based Rocky Mountain Spice Company.

But with creative juices flowing, it’s sometimes hard to keep those at bay.

“We are really trying to stick with the flavors we have. But sometimes it’s a struggle because John is so creative,” Janey said.

“Over nine years we introduced

and deleted so many flavors, so we are trying to just find more retailers to sell to.”

There are savory and sweet Epicurean Butter flavors, like roasted garlic herb, the most popular, and caramel sea salt.

With a variety of flavors, Janey said she hopes their product provides people the opportunity to have restaurant-quality meals in their own homes.

And although their flavored butters are shipped to places all over the country, seeing their product on the shelves in a grocery store never gets old.

“It’s really nice to know you have created something that can stand the test of time be and to be able to walk into a grocery store and see something we created is a very satisfying feeling,” John said.

“Especially when you travel far away, like to Maryland, and you see your product in the grocery story,” John said. “That’s when it really hits you.”

Retail marijuana stores allowed in Northglenn

By Tammy Kranz

tkranz@ourcommunitynews.com Retail marijuana businesses will be allowed to operate in the city of Northglenn.

City Council approved by an 8-2 vote during its Aug. 26 regular meeting to allow retail establishments. The vote came after a public hearing, in which one resident spoke against the measure.

Resident Eric Hoffman criticized council for not following after other cities that have banned retail establishments. He also criticized council members who may be against

the measure but were voting on it for the purpose of tax revenue.

“You’re selling out your values, the city’s image and reputation, your residents’ quality of life and property values for money,” he said.

Ward II council members Joe Brown and Leslie Carrico cast the dissenting votes.

Mayor Pro Tem Susan Clyne, Ward III, was absent.

“I feel in the long term that greed is going to get the best of everybody, and we’re going to tax the (heck) out of this,” Brown said. “People who want a better deal are go-

ing to go back to drug dealers anyway.”

Carrico highlighted the things she thought were positive about the city — economic development, school choice and great parks.

“I feel (allowing marijuana establishments) is a ding against the city and a black mark against it,” she said. “We have so many positive things in the city, and this is a negative.”

Mayor Joyce Downing, Ward I Councilwoman Carol Dodge and Ward IV Councilwoman Kim Snetzinger pointed out that a majority (nearly 64 percent) of Northglenn

residents voted for Amendment 64, which allows the possession, use, display, purchase, transport, transfer and consumption of marijuana accessories or one ounce or less of marijuana by persons 21 or older. It is up to each municipal in the state whether to allow marijuana establishments to operate in their jurisdictions. Northglenn already allows medical marijuana businesses.

“Resoundingly, Colorado voters and Northglenn voters voted yes to allow retail and medical marijuana both and I feel we’re just following their wishes and trying to contain it the best we can,” Dodge said.

Recreational opportunities offered at Standley Lake

By Ashley Reimers

areimers@ourcoloradonews.com Editor’s Note: This is the second story of a three-part series highlighting the recreation opportunities at Standley Lake Regional Park in Westminster. The first story focused on the history of the park and the final story will focus on educational opportunities.

Stocked regularly with walleye, wiper, trout and bass Standley Lake offers fishermen year-round fishing along the shoreline as well as boat fishing May through September. The lake is also the Colorado state record-holder for the largest walleye, 18 pounds, caught in 1997 by angler Scott Regan.

Standley Lake Regional Park in Westminster at 100th Avenue and Simms Street, offers much more than just great fishing. The park offers hiking, biking, camping, power boating, kayaking, paddle boating and wildlife viewing. And for those who own power boats, the lake offers recreational opportunities, like water skiing and tubing, without the hassle of an overpopulated park.

Because the lake is a water source, there are limitations to how much recreational use can be done in the water. Part of those limitations is a limit on how many power boats are allowed on the lake. Each year the park issues 550 power boat permits and each year those permits sell out. The reason for the permits is to maintain a high level of water quality in the lake, said Mike Happe, Utilities Planning and Engineering Manager for the city of Westminster.

“The lake is the main source of water for Westminster and is a big water supply for both Northglenn and Thornton, so keeping the water quality very high is a priority,” he said. “Because of this, we also don’t allow swimming in the lake because having less human body contact in the water creates

an even bigger barrier in terms of protecting the quality of the water.”

Along with obtaining a permit, each boat must also sprayed down and quarantined for 15 days before entering the water to comply with the park’s Aquatic Nuisance Species, ANS, program. The ANS program is an effort to keep zebra and quagga mussels from infesting the water. Mark Reddinger, lake operations manager, said when a boat is clear to enter the water the boat and the trailer is tagged. Boats who have entered another lake or reservoir must go through the spray process and quarantine again, he added.

“When we first started this program we did get some backlash, but now people have accepted the program. Because of our permit program, we have less people and boats in the lake, which people really enjoy,” he said. “We have some people who store their boats here in the park all summer and come out every weekend. Many of those people we’ve seen for years and end up getting to know them pretty well.”

Standley Lake is also a non-alcoholic and jet ski-free park, which Reddinger also says is a benefit.

“We know there is alcohol out there, but because it’s not allowed it makes people check themselves if they choose to drink alcohol,” he said. “And because we don’t have jet skis on the water, people feel the lake is a lot safer.”

The lake isn’t just home to power boaters, but also people in non-motorized boats, kayaks, canoes and paddle boats.

Just recently the park designated a section of the lake just to these types of vessels and senior ranger Holly Walters said she’s already seen a jump in the number people taking advantage of the opportunity.

“The designated area of the lake for nonmotorized vessels is the north west cor-

A boat is launched into the lake on Aug. 24 at Standley Lake Regional Park in Westminster. Only people who purchase a season permit are allowed to use their motorized boat in the water. Permits are sold through a lottery system each year and are limited to 550. Photo by Ashley Reimers ner and is a pretty big chunk of the lake,” Walters said. “It’s a really nice amenity for people to come out and not have to worry about boat traffic. Plus it’s just gorgeous out there.”

By the end of the September, the camping ground and all water activity will end until the following May, but the rest of the park is open year-round. Walters said it’s the non-summer months when wildlife viewing is at its best.

Over the years the park’s been a home to mountain lions, bobcats, bears, coyotes, mule deer and many others. For bird

watchers, Walters said the park offers great opportunities to view a variety of birds like herons and pelicans, and of course a pair of bald eagles, that nest in the park yearround.

“Many people think we close after summer, but there are still so many great recreational opportunities for people in the park, whether it’s fishing along the shore, or hiking around 14 miles of trails,” Walters said.

“Standley Lake is just a great place to escape the city any time of the year and enjoy nature. As a ranger I get to enjoy it every day and I wouldn’t choose a different office.”

opinions / yours and ours

‘Twerked’ by rewarding bad behavior One of the great “takeaways” I got from a brief study of “Parenting With Love and Logic” a few years ago was the idea that behaviors that get reinforced get repeated.

I’ve been thinking about that a lot over the past week.

Consider a recent Denver-area tragedy: the 6-game suspension of Broncos’ linebacker Von Miller.

One thing I heard in the days after that was that, according to union rules, the only way for that to be a possible penalty would be if this were Miller’s third offense. So a phenomenally talented player has already, by the time he’s 24, had three drug “events,” including one that happened after he knew he was going to be tested every three days.

This young man was drafted second overall, and handed $21 million, even though there was likely a drug event around that time.

He became one of the most dominant players in the NFL and earned fame and adulation, also while, apparently, enjoying his drug issues. So exactly where in this

whole scheme is there incentive for him to change? Sure, the six-game suspension is going to hit him in the wallet, but all will be forgiven the first time he rides an opposing quarterback to the turf. Act, reinforce, repeat.

Then consider the odd phenomenon of Kim Kardashian. I have yet to figure out exactly what talents this young lady possesses, what barriers she has busted through or what accomplishments she has racked up.

And yet, there she is, staring back at me

from the covers of five different magazines in the checkout aisle, and all because her very public life is a bit of a train wreck.

Of course, we’re talking about someone who vaulted to fame because of a sex tape and has remained in the public eye thanks to the phenomenon of “reality” TV, which, in the best traditions of Jerry Springer, encourages and rewards people for engaging in the most outrageous sociopathic behavior in front of cameras. We, the public, are the reinforcing mechanism.

So, consider how you would view the world if during your formative years your every word was greeted with a laugh track, you had instant fame without any accomplishments, and your slightly-above-average musical skills were the headline act of sold out concert tours all over the world.

Why, it’s just possible that you might think that the normal boundaries of decent behavior not only don’t apply to you, but don’t exist at all!

Miley Cyrus’ antics at the Video Music Awards are not the result of lax parenting,

or exploitation by a media empire, though those both certainly contributed. No, I think, as easy as it is to blame Dad and Disney, I think we really should be looking in the mirror. Disney did not create Miley Cyrus — parents buying her albums and concert tickets for their kids, normal folks like us letting our young girls buy her style and watch her show, created this Miley Cyrus. In effect, we are all Billy Ray Cyrus.

And this sort of celebrity worship has consequences.

I mean, seriously, if we don’t get this under control, next thing you know we’re going to elect a President with no military or foreign policy experience, no executive experience, and no legislative achievements, all because he or she has a pleasant oratorical style. Oh, wait ...

My friends Tony and Catherine decided a few years ago that they wanted to marry themselves ... not just each other.

Tony and Catherine entered into legal wedlock, without clergy or judicial presence, by conducting the ceremony themselves, which is also known as a self-uniting marriage, where the couple are married without a third-party officiant.

Colorado law allows such couples to perform their own marriages. The two simply indicate this on the marriage certificate, and sign where the clergy or judicial officer would, and then sign again as “bride” and “groom.” Witnesses aren’t even necessary either, but the newlyweds do need to return the marriage certificate for recording no later than 63 days from the date of solemnization.

Tony and Catherine first obtained a marriage license at the Division of Motor Vehicles, and then wrote and exchanged their own vows in the presence of family and friends, which constituted their entire selfuniting ceremony.

Another couple who are friends of mine had a Hindu ceremony some months later — which they considered to be spiritual rather than religious — to allow others to celebrate with them after they had legally self-solemnized their marriage.

However, self-marriage participants don’t need any kind of ceremony at all — no judge, no clergy, no justice of the peace. They can sign the marriage certificate right in the building where they got their license and file it immediately with the clerk and recorder.

I’m intrigued with this concept of a selfuniting marriage, and why it makes such a profound statement. For example, for a couple to write their own vows is nice, but not unique to self-marriage. And it’s not just the novelty of having a simple ceremony like Tony’s and Catherine’s; with costs spiraling out of the realm of reality, and the increasing stress of planning a big wedding these days, many couples are scaling back. Even celebrities are eloping.

Tony and Catherine chose self-marriage because they wanted their union to be civil instead of religious, and with as little judicial involvement as possible. As Tony says, though, they had to involve the government because they filed their signed marriage certificate with the state. And, of course, the “legal” part of “legally married” includes, at a minimum, the oversight of the judicial system for the benefit and protection of all parties. This entrance of the state also occurs after a religious ceremony, too, and self-uniting marriages need not be secular, by any means. But I like that the state comes in after the fact, recognizing what the two people in the marriage have already made happen.

Colorado is one of only two or three states that recognize a self-solemnized ceremony.

This doesn’t mean the marriage is not valid in other states, although insurance companies and such might require a certified copy of the marriage certificate.

But what I find particularly moving about two people such as Catherine and Tony who choose to enter a self-uniting marriage is that they are establishing — confirming, really — that the path they are about to travel is truly in their hands.

Do you think that assuming the responsibility for your own union is a good way to declare your intentions for a life together?

I do.

Venue for Sigg trial still undecided

By Ashley Reimers

areimers@ourcoloradonews.com The Austin Sigg trial may or may not end up in Jefferson County.

During the Aug. 29 motions hearing, Judge Stephen Munsinger ruled that he will make his decision whether or not to grant a change of venue to the defense during the jury selection process, which begins on Sept. 20.

“I don’t know if we can seat a fair and impartial jury. I won’t know that until the jurors get here,” Munsinger said. “I want to acknowledge the defense for their efforts in keeping information out of the public domain.”

Munsinger’s decision came after a long testimony from Paul Talmey with TalmeyDrake Research and Strategy Inc. who conducted a survey of potential jurors.

Talmey and a team of trained interviewers conducted 707 phone interviews throughout Colorado, with 303 of them done in Jefferson County, 203 of them done in the metro area and 201 of them done outside of the metro area.

Those surveyed were asked over 20 questions, beginning with screener questions followed by quesSigg tions regarding the abduction and murder of Jessica Ridgeway and the Sigg case.

Talmey testified that his findings from the survey showed a high use of social media, like Facebook and Twitter, as a means of information gained on the case by those interviewed.

“There’s a difference between getting

information through a passive form and an active form and in terms of this case people are activity involved with the case,” Talmey said.

“Whether it’s through email or making comments on Facebook or Twitter, people aren’t just acknowledging the case, they are involved.”

Talmey said according to his findings, those interviewed in Jefferson County had a “very high awareness of the crime” and that the crime “rang a bell with people.”

He said the recognition of the crime from people surveyed was much higher in Jefferson County than it was outside the county. He suggested to the judge to change the venue of the trial.

“I’d say it will be hard to seat an impartial and fair jury in Jefferson County and the metro area,” Talmey said. “There are too many people with too much information.”

Also during the hearing, Munsinger accepted University of Colorado at Boulder Psychologist Dr. Marie Banich as an expert witness for the defense for the upcoming trial.

She took the stand during the hearing and discussed her lengthy background and experience in child and adolescent brain development. During the trial she will not be discussing Sigg’s personal brain development nor will she review any reports on Sigg. She will only testify as an expert teaching witness to educate the jury on child and adolescent brain development.

Sigg’s trial is set to begin on Oct. 3 with opening arguments. If convicted, he faces life in prison with a possibility of parole after 40 years. He faces 17 charges, including murder and sexual assault. He is charged with abducting and murdering 10-year-old Jessica Ridgeway last October.

Crunch time at hand for Morse, Giron Recall elections sparked by gun-control measures

By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com The term “the third rail of American politics” has long been associated with talk about cutting Social Security — a charged issue that could lead to severe consequences for any elected official who dares to touch it.

But soon, a couple of Colorado Democrats could end up learning the hard way about another “third rail” issue, as they face recall elections over their votes on gun legislation that was passed this year.

The stakes couldn’t be higher for John Morse of Colorado Springs, who is the Senate president, and state Sen. Angela Giron of Pueblo. And their potential ousters could have lasting ramifications in the state and across the nation.

“The message could be that it is just political poison to support any form of gun control, no matter how reasonable it may look to people,” said Bob Loevy, a political scientist at Colorado College.

“If either is eliminated, the message is

going to be: No matter how big or politically strong you are, you can be knocked out over gun issues,” Loevy said.

Morse and Giron are the first lawmakers to face a recall in Colorado. Their districtonly elections are scheduled for Sept. 10.

Both supported legislation that requires universal background checks on all gun sales in the state, and were behind a separate law that places limits on high-capacity ammunition magazines — such as the ones used in mass killings at an Aurora theater and at Connecticut’s Sandy Hook Elementary School.

Morse also sponsored a bill that would have placed liability on assault weapon owners and manufacturers whose guns are used in crimes. However, Morse ended up killing his own legislation.

Republicans were unanimous in their opposition to the gun bills.

The gun debate stirred passions like no other issue this legislative session.

“In my seven years in office, I’ve never seen an issue have this kind of emotion,” said Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, a former House speaker.

That’s about the only area of gun legislation that McNulty and state Sen. Evie Hudak agree on. The Westminster Democrat

voted for each one of her party’s gun-control bills this session. Her own bill, which placed stricter limits on domestic violence offenders’ access to guns, also became law.

“I received so many threatening emails, with extremely bad language used against me,” Hudak said. “My best friend thought I should wear a bulletproof vest.”

Recall organizers initially targeted Hudak as well, but that effort failed. Since then, Hudak says she’s been knocking on doors in Pueblo and Colorado Springs, in support of her colleagues’ efforts to thwart the “ludicrous” attempts at recall.

Hudak and state Sen. Linda Newell, DLittleton, point out that Morse is term-limited and will be out at the end of next year, regardless of what happens Sept. 10. Giron is up for re-election next year.

“If it’s just about a vote, you have elections and term limits,” Newell said. “It’s not a wise use of taxpayer dollars. We take about a thousand votes every single session. If you

are recalled over every single vote? Oh my gosh. It would be dysfunctional.”

But McNulty believes that recalls are “a longstanding right in the state of Colorado.”

McNulty also notes that, for as much attention as the recall elections are getting, they are rare and difficult to pursue.

“I don’t think people take this lightly,” he said. “But if (elected officials) are out of step with their district, then the recall election should be there.”

Like Loevy, McNulty thinks the recalls could have a lasting impact on future guncontrol efforts.

“I think it certainly does send a message to folks who push policies that infringe on law-abiding citizens’ ability to hold firearms, that you will need to think twice,” McNulty said. Newell disagrees.

“I’m not concerned about the policy issues at all,” she said. “The recalls send a message of fringe, special-interest groups being obtrusive.”

The once and future king Arvada Center brings King Arthur back to life

IF YOU GO WHAT: “Camelot” WHERE: Arvada Center

By Clarke Reader

6901 Wadsworth Blvd., Arvada

“Don’t let it be forgot That once there was a spot, For one brief, shining moment That was known as Camelot.”

The Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., is bringing back to life that one brief, shining moment along with King Arthur, Lancelot, Guinevere with its production of Lerner and Loewe’s “Camelot.”

The musical opens up the center’s 37th season, and runs Sept. 10 to Oct. 6. Performances are Tuesdays through Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., Wednesdays at 1 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays at 2 p.m.

“I wanted to go back to the original text (T.H. White’s “The Once and Future King”) for this version, and really treat it like historical fiction,” said director Rod A. Lansberry.

“This applied to things like costume design and the different accents of the knights.”

Lansberry also cast younger actors then people may expect, because in reality the life expectancy of the time was around 35 to 40 years old, so everyone would have been younger during these events.

“Camelot” tells the story of King Arthur’s (David Bryant Johnson) legendary Round Table and the knights who came from all over the country to try to forge a new world order, one where might makes

right gives way to might for right.

“The knights are really struggling with the changes that Arthur is proposing,” Lansberry said.

“They’re also coming from all over the country, so you have this group of people who are very eclectic and concerned with their own plans. Arthur has to bring all these disparate people together to create something new.”

Johnson said that throughout the production, audiences will see Arthur age as the burdens of trying to keep these fragile ties intact wear him down.

“The great thing about this production is Rod embraced the fact that these people came from all these different places,” Johnson said. “We worked with a dialect coach to give actors different accents, and it just adds an amazing layer of variety to these knights.”

Of course, the other thing that is wear-

ing Arthur down is the affair between his queen, Guinevere (Melissa Mitchell) and his best friend, Lancelot (Glenn Seven Allen). “‘Camelot’ really is the story of Arthur, Lancelot and Guinevere, and how these three people try to make sense of their relationships and how they develop as people,” Lansberry said. “All three deeply love each other, and they’re constantly questioning each other and their motives.”

Johnson said that one the things he finds most admirable about Arthur is the pain he puts up with to keep his new idea of chivalry alive.

“Arthur is willing to spare the lives of the two people he loves so much — and in the process cause himself a lot of pain, and he lives with that pain so he can ensure that his idea isn’t a fraud,” Johnson said.

Both Johnson and Lansberry said that the production brings a sense of realism to “Camelot” that has been lacking in some versions of the story.

“The armor is pretty amazing — it’s hard to understand how people were able to move so fast in it,” Johnson said. “When you put on a costume like that, it really is like putting on someone else’s skin.”

This is the “Camelot” people are familiar with, but Lansberry said, it has a few twists to make it more engaging.

“I wanted to make sure to give the audience what they want, but I also needed to give a better story, so they understand and identify, not just watch” Lansberry said.

“This is a fresh, new version that is more realistic, and I think will really draw them in.”

Fossil Trace Golf Course in Golden is listed among the “10 most unusual U.S. golf courses,” according to Forbes magazine contributor Larry Olmsted.

The writer raves about course designer Jim Engh, calling him “one of my favorite golf architects and way underrated by the general public, though the industry holds him in high acclaim.”

Olmstead also notes Fossil Creek’s preservation of rustic mining equipment and the history lesson the course provides with prehistoric dinosaur tracks through holes 11 to 15 left some 64 million years ago. “Triceratops footprints have been well marked next to the 12th green so golfers can take a look, and more fossils, plaster footprint casts, and ancient history are in the clubhouse,” Olmstead notes.

He forgets the great views the course offers from every direction, especially from holes No. 1 and 10, and the commune next to the 16th tee box.

PGA Tour is on the ball

The PGA Tour is not run by a slew of stooges.

Witness the television commercial already out touting the 2014 BMW Championships, part of the FedEx Cup playoff tournament series that will be played at Cherry Hills Country Club in Cherry Hills Village.

The advertisement features four of Denver’s best-known sports figures, from the Broncos: John Elway, Peyton Manning and John Lynch and ex-Denver Nuggets star Chauncey Billups (now with the Detroit Pistons but a Denver resident and native).

So Todd Helton and Joe Sakic are chopped liver?

The BMW Championship is the next to the last tournament of the FedEx Cup series that narrows the field to the final 30 that play at The TOUR Championship the following week. Next year’s BMW Championship will be played Sept. 4-7 at Cherry Hills. Tickets are already available at https://tickettapp.com/wms/buy/ bmw/2014 for the 2014 BMW Championship.

“No we can put that car on a skid just like it was on ice,” he said. “We can do that in August or in January.”

He said a 10-hour training day used to include a lot of time spent traveling to a place for the training; now an officer can take those 10 hours and be trained in all three disciplines.

The training complex has a 10,000-square-foot building that provides academy classroom space that has a Force Option Simulator — a virtual reality room that provide officers a chance to respond to more than 500 different training scenarios using stun guns, batons and firearms.

There is also a 3,500-square-foot defensive tactics building where officers can re-

ceive hands-on training such as weapons search, handcuffing and arrest techniques.

There are also two 50-yard tactical shooting ranges.

The complex, which took a year to complete, sits on just under 400 acres and only 100 of those acres are developed. McIntosh said the facility was designed in a way that each of the three training areas could be expanded.

“Keeping our residents safe is a challenging task, and the board of commissioners is proud to support our outstanding deputies by funding a facility that is worthy of the sacrifices they make every day in service to our community,” said Adams County Board of Commissioners Chair Eva Henry in a pre-

pared statement.

The center is open to all law enforcement agencies to use, for a fee. Agencies that have already signed up to use the facility include Northglenn, Brighton, Colorado Department of Corrections and Aurora.

Thornton police currently uses a firing range in Longmont and uses the Colorado State Patrol Driving Track in Golden. Thornton Officer Matt Barnes said the department annually accesses its training requirements and training facility options that best meet its needs.

The Westminster Police Department is not currently planning on utilizing any part of the Flatrock facility, according to Westminster Investigator Cheri Spottke.

states that legalize the drug to ensure that there are strong enforcement laws.

“The Department’s guidance in this memorandum rests on its expectation that states and local governments that have enacted laws authorizing marijuana-related conduct will implement strong and effective regulatory and enforcement systems that will address the threat those state laws could pose to public safety, public health and other law enforcement interests.”

Rep. Dan Pabon, D-Denver, who was the chairman of the legislative select commit-

tee that drafted Amendment 64 legislation this year, said that’s exactly what the Legislature accomplished.

“We drafted the most robust marijuana regulations in the country because public safety is our top priority,” Pabon said through a statement. “The feds’ action validates all our hard work to protect public safety, comply with the will of the people of Colorado and keep marijuana out of the hands of kids and criminals.”

Gov. John Hickenlooper also issued a statement, thanking the federal govern-

ment for providing clarity on this issue.

“We recognize how difficult this issue has been for the Department of Justice, and we appreciate the thoughtful approach it has taken,” Hickenlooper said. “Amendment 64 put Colorado in conflict with federal law. Today’s announcement shows the federal government is respecting the will of Colorado voters.”

The memo also will have an impact on the state of Washington, which will join Colorado in allowing retail pot sales beginning next year.

Mustangs defeat Northglenn in 48-3 victory Mountain Range football team wins home, season opener

By Kate Ferraro

kferraro@ourcoloradonews.com Mountain Range running back Gabe Gillespie scored three touchdowns to guide his team to a 48-3 victory over Northglenn Aug. 29 at North Stadium.

The Mustangs scored 34 points in the second and third quarters alone with Gillespie scoring all three of his touchdowns in that period, along with wide receiver Kyle Dunbabin and running back Ben Waddell, scoring a touchdown each.

“We knew that Gabe was going to be a key to our success this year, so we knew we wanted to keep running him,” Mountain Range coach Bryan Davey said. “Early on,

he wasn’t getting a lot, but we knew we just had to keep with it. Sure enough they wore down a bit, and that’s when a big back like Gabe, who’s over 230 pounds, really starts biting off chunks.”

Dunbabin was the first Mustang to throw some points on the scoreboard for Mountain Range.

Dunbabin took a hand-off from quarterback Andrew Wamsley and scored four minutes into the game for the 7-0 lead.

Gillespie scored a touchdown quickly afterward when he took a hand-off from Wamsley at the beginning of the second quarter.

“Gabe’s a good runner, we’re trying to match up with him,” Northglenn head coach Matt Dean said. “It was a tough job, tough chore. A lot of guys stepped up and tried to meet him.”

With five minutes left in the half, North-

glenn wide receiver Eddie Franco seized a much needed run downfield to the 25-yard line. The Norse took advantage of a Mountain Range personal foul, landing them on the 10-yard line. Kicker Adam Adkins settled for a field goal, keeping Northglenn in the game 14-3.

However, the field goal was the only points the Norse could come up with for the rest of the game.

Dunbabin scored right before halftime, making the score 20-3 at the half as kicker Kyler McCleland missed the extra point.

Gillespie scored two more touchdowns after the half. Waddell added on to the total when he scored, ending the third quarter 41-3.

“We just piled on there in the third quarter,” Dean said. “I think we held tough. We could have had a couple of things go a different way and it might have been a closer

game at half. They’re tough as nails, and stuck out through four quarters and never gave up.”

Mountain Range running back DeVonte Manson topped off the night by scoring off a hand-off from quarterback Isaac DiTirro.

Even though the Mustangs won 48-3, Davey said he didn’t think his team looked very sharp and there are still things they need to work on.

“I think we have some fundamentals we need to keep working on,” Davey said. “We have a tough Brighton team that won their league last year, next week. I’m sure they’ll be tough again. We’ll start seeing film on them, and we’ll go back to work tomorrow.”

Mountain Range will play Brighton Sept.

6 at Brighton High School. Northglenn’s next game will be Sept. 6 against Gateway High School at Five Star Stadium. The Mustangs are 1-0, while the Norse fall to 0-1.

Norse volleyball falls to Lincoln in five sets Northglenn 1-1 at home

By Kate Ferraro

kferraro@ourcoloradonews.com The Northglenn volleyball team dropped two consecutive sets after leading 2-1, giving Lincoln the 3-2 victory Aug. 31 at Northglenn High School.

Since it was a holiday weekend, Northglenn coach Sarah Doyle said she tried rescheduling the game, considering some girls arrived late while others had to leave early.

“It’s hard when you have a group of girls that are used to playing together at practice and they’re doing really well and you mess that up,” Doyle said.

The Norse fell behind from the start with an 11-point deficit at one point in the first set of the match, in the end losing the set 16-25.

Northglenn fought back with two consecutive wins in the second and third sets.

They won 25-22 and 25-23, respectively. The Norse began the fourth set on a high note, leading 5-0. However, Lincoln attacked and won the match 18-25. Northglenn lost the

fifth set 7-15.

“I think we beat ourselves,” Doyle said.

“Luckily, I had girls step up, and they played hard and fought to five games. It wasn’t ideal or typical how we should have been playing so we kind of beat ourselves.”

Not only did Lincoln outscore the Norse, they had more kills, aces and assists. Nevertheless, Northglenn had 102 digs compared to Lincoln’s 17. Junior Lexi Kite had 23 digs on the day.

“Lexi’s amazing, she’s a junior so we’re going to have her for another year, which I’m excited for,” Doyle said. “She’s really kind of taken off and exploded this year so I’m excited to see what she can do.”

Northglenn also played against Standley Lake Aug. 29 and won 3-2. Kite captured 23 digs in that game as well, along with four kills.

Senior and libero Abby Thao played two good games, leading the team in aces and kills in both matches.

“She did a really nice job today going in for multiple players,” Doyle said. “It’s tough because she has to know the rotation, but everybody has to follow. She’s a good player.”

kferraro@ourcoloradonews.com The Mountain Range gymnastics team sneaked by Broomfield, winning their home and season opening meet by 0.10 points Aug. 29 at Mountain Range High School.

The Mustangs tallied up a score of 180, while Broomfield came in right behind them with 179.90 points.

“The score was a great start to the season,” Mountain Range coach Diane Clark said. “180 is really hard to get.”

Clark is the former coach for Broomfield, a team she both attended and coached for many years before coming to Mountain Range. Clark said it was good to see her old team again.

“It’s fun,” Clark said. “Some of the alumni came tonight. Both teams are good friends.”

Overall, the Mustangs won every event except for the vault. The Eagles beat them 45.15 to 43.45, with only two Mustangs placing. Mountain Range’s best was the floor event with 46.8 points. Five girls placed in the event.

Sydney Kotar struggled on the vault early on, but fought back with a fourth place finish in the uneven bars. Kotar said she began the year on a good note.

“Personally, I started off really well,” Kotar said. “I set expectations high for the rest of the season.”

Taylor Molliconi won first place in both the uneven bars and balance beam with scores of 9.55 and 9.3, respectively. Caitlyn Paplow placed third in the individual all-around, while Alex Wilson placed fourth.

Broomfield’s Kailey Licata and Melanie Stelling captured first and second place, respectively, in the individual

Even though the Mustangs came out on top in their season opening meet, Clark said there are still plenty of things the team needs to work on.

“I think we know where we need

to pick it up,” Clark said. “We need to do a lot of reps, mostly on vault and bars.”

The Mustangs are 1-0 and will next compete in the Loveland Invitational Sept. 6.

ls we “We Mariah Bell moved to Colorado six theiryears ago to train for figure skating hey’llwith Cindy Sullivan, her coach. Since m onshe’s been here, Bell has soared in the row.”figure skating world.

Sept. Bell, a 17-year-old senior at enn’sRalston Valley High School, trains at ewaythe Ice Centre at the Promenade in Mus-Westminster. She has been skating 1. for Team U.S.A. for three consecutive years. Sullivan, Director of Figure Skating at the Promenade, said Bell has a real passion for the sport.

“She’s just a ball of energy,” Sullivan said. “She has a real love for life, and she’s real excited about the sport.

When we first began together, keeping her personality, while trying to keep in her skating, was a challenge.”

Bell has a real expectation of making the U.S. Figure Skating team. She competes on the Junior Ladies level, which she will move up to the Senior Ladies level in January.

Bell skated in the Ladies Junior Division at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships last January in Omaha, Neb. She won the silver medal and because of her triumph, she made the U.S. team for her third year.

“It’s really cool,” Bell said on representing her country. “I know that it’s a huge honor but it’s a big responsibility, too. That’s what you work for so that’s really cool.”

As a skater on team U.S.A., Bell will now compete in the Junior Grand Prix circuit, a series of seven international competitions that began at the end of August. She was delegated the second event of the series, a competition in Mexico City from Sept. 2-8. She participated in the same event in 2012, however last year’s competition was

Figure skater and Ralston Valley senior Mariah Bell.

Photo by Kate Ferraro in Italy. Bell won the silver medal in that contest as well.

“It was really fun,” Bell said of competing in Italy. “It was a more laid back competition. It was a good experience and I learned how to be part of a team.”

Bell could possibly qualify for the Junior Grand Prix final in December in Japan if she performs well in Mexico City and is one of the six top skaters in the circuit.

The U.S. Figure Skating Championships are going to be in Boston this January. Bell said she doesn’t think she will reach the 2014 Olympics, but is confident for the 2018 Games.

“It would be very hard to make it this year, because it’s my first year as a senior,” Bell said. “I have to continue to take it one competition at a time.

There are a lot of steps to get to that first.”

Bell has been figure skating for 13 years, starting when she was 3-yearsold and competing just a few years following. She began the sport when her sister, Morgan, started skating.

Bell chose figure skating after her sister and because her mom thought it would be easier if they were both doing the same thing.

Morgan Bell has been skating on

the Senior Ladies level the last three years and has qualified for the U.S. Figure Skating Championships every time. Sullivan said Mariah Bell’s success is because she has a good support system at home from Morgan Bell and the rest of her family.

“Her sister skates and has been to nationals three years in a row with the senior level,” Sullivan said. “She’s been a big inspiration for Mariah.

They’ve been a great family to work with and be a part of. That’s always an important factor.”

Sullivan said Bell is very focused, organized and works hard, which makes it easier when coaching skaters.

“She’s a very disciplined athlete day to day,” Sullivan said. “When you see an athlete who has talent, and then puts the work ethic together, that’s what is the true success to becoming a skater at a higher level.

That’s the ingredient that has been successful for Mariah.”

Bell’s ultimate goal is to compete in the 2018 Olympics. Bell said there are a lot of competitions before that and there are still some things she needs to learn. She knows it’s hard work and wants to be a good role model as she gets higher up in the sport.

When Bell isn’t figure skating she enjoys being with her family and friends. She likes going to school events at Ralston Valley. After Bell graduates high school, she desires to receive an education at University of Colorado at Boulder, while still skating.

Bell said in order to achieve her ultimate goal, she needs to stay focused.

“I have to keep things in perspective,” Bell said. “Remembering my ultimate goal and remembering I’m just doing a sport. I see the kids at St. Jude’s (Children’s Research Hospital) and how happy they are. They’re always happy. That’s inspiring.”
