While imbibing numerous alcoholic beverages and then getting behind the wheel of an automobile may be evidence of poor judgment, it does not, in and of itself, mean that someone is guilty of intoxicated driving. In Colorado and all other states, a person charged with drunk driving may present a defense against those charges in court. Typically, doing so alongside the guidance of an experienced criminal defense lawyer increases one's chances of a favorable outcome.

Police believe that they have correctly identified a man responsible for a snowboarder's serious fall from a chairlift.

Although it is not yet clear if he has any criminal defense strategies in mind, he is possibly being transported to an out-of-state psychiatric treatment facility.

Police believe 2 incidents of theft are connected
Colorado police believe that a purse theft and an attempted vehicle theft are connected by a single man for whom they are currently looking.

His warrant currently lists a single count of vehicle burglary.
