Final ride with band of brothers the gift of a lifetime Christian Redman always knew the late-stage colon cancer he has furiously fought for three years was incurable. But he had hoped for remission, a chance to grab as many extra years as possible, to watch his 17-year-old daughter graduate from college, to walk her down the aisle. The come-to-Jesus sobering reality check, as he called it, came in November: eight to 16 months left. In early February, he and his doctor Ann Macari had the hospice talk. Healey To ease his mind, he planned his funeral. But the question from someone he didn’t know more than 1,800 miles away hovered above him, a spark of joy to hold onto: “What do you think, a last hurrah?” A last hurrah. A last ride with his band of brothers — friends and strangers bound by a fiercely loyal bond who have lifted him up, so that he can be with his daughter on her 18th birthday, then sink his toes, one last time, in the sand of a Key West beach. “Life keeps going on around you, but you’re kind of stuck in a pause mode,” Redman, 51, says about his battle with this ruthless enemy, as he sat recently in the clubhouse of his Parker condominium complex, his words consistently interrupted by the beep of the small pump that delivers pain medication into his body six times an hour, 24 hours a day. “The trip is giving me the opportunity just to be one of the guys again. For a little while.” ••••• The guys are the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment, an Army unit also known as the Blackhorse Regiment, who also describe themselves as a Band of Brothers, the words splayed across the back of Redman’s black sweatshirt. Formed in 1901 as a mounted regiment to help with territorial administration following the Spanish-American War of 1898, the regiment today is a mechanized unit that has been

IF YOU WANT TO HELP Local veterans, along with several of Christian Redman’s friends and neighbors, are hoping to raise about $10,000 to help cover expenses for Maverick’s Last Ride, as well as for medical and other bills. About $1,200 has been collected so far. If you’d like to help, here are three ways: • Donate to the GoFundMe account, “Maverick’s Last Ride,” at https://www.gofundme. com/mavericks-last-ride • Stop by Parker’s Takoda Tavern, a popular

Christian Redman sits in the clubhouse of his Parker condominium complex, wearing the sweatshirt of his beloved Blackhorse regiment. Blackhorse veterans are planning a last ride for Redman, who is dying of cancer. ANN MACARI HEALEY involved in just about every national and global conflict since. Ask any Blackhorse trooper and he’ll tell you this: There is no unit more steadfast, more devoted, regardless of whether they know each other. It’s like this, says Blackhorse veteran Ray Simpson, 72, a first sergeant who fought in Vietnam and lives in Colorado Springs: You’re at Popeye’s, waiting to order, when you see the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment crest on another man in line. “You look at him and you say, ‘Hey, brother.’ You shake his hand, maybe give each other a hug, because you know — it’s just a thing .… When you’re in it, you’re all in, you don’t half-step … you just go all the way with it.” “It’s the weirdest experience you could ever have,” says Rocky Cuda, a retired sergeant and president of the Florida chapter of the Blackhorse Regiment Cavalry Motorcycles. “All you do is see that badge and you’re connected.” Which is why Cuda and Simpson, without knowing Redman, have powered into his life. They all connected on the Blackhorse Association Facebook page,

which Redman helped start in 2006. Every now and then, Redman would post an update on his health. Before Christmas, he shared that he was reaching the end of the line. It was Cuda’s idea: What about a kind of make-a-wish last ride for Blackhorse troopers, with Redman as the inaugural event? Call it Maverick’s Last Ride, after Redman’s call sign from his Army days. He would leave from Parker March 4, get to Louisville, Kentucky, in time for his daughter’s birthday on March 10, head to Daytona Beach, Florida, for the world’s largest motorcycle gathering and finish in Key West, Redman’s all-time happy place. There would be other stops along the way, too, and Blackhorse troopers and veterans, either on motorcycles or in cars, would join in to form a caravan of brotherly love, cavalry-style. Redman loved the idea. But he didn’t know how to make it happen. He hasn’t been able to work since soon after his July 2016 diagnosis. The cancer treatments, hospitalizations and medications depleted his bank account and shuttered his burgeoning construction business. Friends and strangers rallied a little more than a year ago to raise about $23,000 to help with his rent, medical costs and bills. Over the past year, he has sold his treasured ’70 SS cobalt blue Chevelle with the silver stripes, two Harleys and Kentucky Derby and NFL memorabilia to pay bills. He will move in with his parents next month because he can no longer pay the rent. Then Simpson stepped in. He would drive them in his Ford pickup — the back seat is outfitted with a memory foam pad for comfort — pulling a 36foot camper for sleeping and eating. A

restaurant and bar among military personnel and veterans, for a fundraiser on Saturday, March 9, from 10 a.m.-8 p.m. A portion of the day’s sales also will be donated to the fundraiser.

Northglenn’s 50th celebration continues with Lt. Gen. Richardson Highest ranking woman in U.S. Army speaks March 4 BY SCOTT TAYLOR COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Northglenn continues its golden anniversary March 4, bringing one of its more famous residents back for a discussion about women’s roles in history. The city will host Lt. Gen. Laura Richardson at 6 p.m. March 4 at the D. L. Parson’s Theater, 11801 Community Center Dr. at an event titled Women’s History in the Making. The event is free and open to the public, but seating is limited to 322. Email cmarchese@northglenn.org to reserve tickets. “We reserved the first 100 seats for City Council, her family and ROTC students,” said Kim Rein, Northglenn’s Communications manager. “So, we’ve filled quite a few and now we’re opening it to the public.” The Northglenn native became the first woman to lead the U.S Army Forces Command out of Fort Bragg, North Carolina. It’s the largest single command in the Army, with an estimated 770,000 soldiers and nearly 100,000 civilians under her scrutiny. Previously, she had been named the second in command, under Gen. Robert Abrams, in July 2017. Richardson has strong ties to Northglenn. A native and Northglenn High School alum, she graduated from Metropolitan State University in 1986

whelmed Redman. “They said ‘All you got to do is show up and be healthy — we’ll take care of it,’ ” he says quietly. “Can you believe that? Isn’t that something?” ••••• Being on the receiving end of generosity has been humbling to Redman, known in the community for being the one to always help others. He was the can-do guy, the problem-solver, the man “with a heart of gold” as friends say, ready to step in when needed. A cavalry scout stationed in Germany near the border with the Soviet Union when the Chernobyl nuclear explosion occurred in 1986, Redman later taught armor operations warfare and was called up in the reserves during Desert Shield/Desert Storm. He was a police officer for 23 years in Kentucky before moving to Parker to help care for his aging parents. He worked construction and started his own business. But the cancer, which has spread to his liver and stomach, has ravaged Redman, leaving him with an ileostomy bag outside his stomach area to collect waste products from his body, whittling him down from a “maverick” 230 pounds to 140 pounds at one

Golden anniversary The talk is both a celebration of March as Women’s History Month and Northglenn’s 50th anniversary. The city was officially founded on April 27, 1969. In addition to a number of special events, regular city festivals will take on the anniversary theme. The city has scheduled an Incorporation Day celebration from 2-6 p.m. April 27 at the Elks Lodge, 10969 Irma Dr. That is Northglenn’s original City Hall and police station.

There have been dark days, where he’d sit in his condo, watch TV and not open the door for four or five days. “Just couldn’t summon the energy,” he says. His daughter, prayer, talking scriptures with his brothers have helped him move forward. His dad, Dave Redman, 78, a retired Navy master chief, has been a constant presence — the rock — who still takes him to every appointment. But this chance to live with joy for a little while has been an unexpected, spirit-lifting gift. “I get to see brothers I haven’t seen in years, meet new brothers, be with my daughter on her birthday,” says Redman, his voice tinged with a soft longing. “Go down to Florida, get up in the middle of the night and walk down to the beach, feeling the breeze in your hair, smelling the salt, looking up and seeing the palms. It just calms your soul.” He pauses, remembering. “And it’s never bad to feel the sand beneath your toes.” Ann Macari Healey writes about people, places and issues of everyday life.

Four hats in the ring for Westminster Council Seymour, Smith join incumbants in race to November BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The political season is underway, at the Westminster level at least, with four candidates registering to run to fill the three seats opening on the Westminster City Council in November. So far, incumbents Anita Seitz and Sheela Mahnke have filed affidavits signaling their intent to win back their seats on the Nov. 5 ballot. They’re currently joined by Rich Seymour and Lindsey Smith, both among the candidates the current City Council interviewed in December and January to fill vacancies. “I filed to be one to fill those vacancies, but I knew long before that I wanted to run,” Seymour said. `Removed a voice’ Seymour kicked his campaign off in earnest Feb. 24, with campaign event and rally at G’s Tacos on 100th Avenue in Westminster. But Seymour actually filed his affidavit signaling his intention to run back in September 2018, two months before 2018’s election. He said a rash

of decisions the previous council made spurred him on to seek office. “The biggest issue is that I believe the current city council, and their newest appointees, have removed the voice from the citizens of Westminster,” Seymour said. Three City Councilors stepped down after the November 2018 elections. Maria DeCambra stepped down to take a job with Governor Jared Polis’ after his election, Shannon Bird won election to the Colorado House of Representatives and Emma Pinter won a seat on the Adams County Commission. De Cambra announced her resignation in November, while Pinter and Bird officially resigned in January when they were sworn in to their new seats. Both Pinter and Bird were among the councilors that helped select DeCambra’s replacement, Sheela Mahnke. Mahnke was one of the councilors who helped seat Bird and Pinter’s replacements in January — Michele Haney and Jon Voelz. More than 60 residents filled out an application to fill DeCambra’s chair, and councilors interviewed 45 candidates over 16 hours on Dec. 13-16. A handful of critics said the council should have scheduled an election to replace all three councilors. Seymour said the council should have opted for an election.

Arvada resident delivers dessert boxes to metro area The Desserted Company launched for Valentine’s Day BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Jimmy LaPrelle said looking for gifts to send to clients at his corporate job had become more of a chore than a cheerful event. He was sick of sending flowers and wanted a different option than the gift services already out there. That’s when he came up with The Desserted Co. — a dessert box delivery service. “We wanted to come up with something that was a lot more fun,” LaPrelle said. “Who doesn’t like desserts? We want to bring fun back for people who are giving it and getting it — something different and delicious.” LaPrelle, an Arvada resident, launched his business in time for Valentine’s Day deliveries throughout the Denver metro area. The plan is to have deliveries available every day of the year for any occasion including birthdays,

The Desserted Co. Valentine’s Day Dessert Box included 7-layer s’mores, flavored cotton candy, a large crispy cake, edible cookie dough, hot chocolate flavored frosting, cookies and a brownie. COURTESY PHOTO anniversaries, break ups, mother’s day and graduations.

“Everything you can think of, we’re gonna be having dessert boxes for it,” LaPrelle said.

As the business grows, the goal is to add more freshbaked items made locally.

They are also looking to give back. “As I was putting this together, I wanted to make sure the company had a tangible focus on give backs,” LaPrelle said, adding that he fell in love with the mission of Food For Thought Denver and the tangible impact it has on kids in Denver. Food For Thought Denver is a grassroots nonprofit run by volunteers that provides weekend food packs for hungry students at 37 lowincome schools in Denver and Aurora. The objective is to bridge the gap of hot lunch on Friday and Monday morning breakfast at school. For each dessert box sold, The Desserted Co. will fund one weekend food pack through Food For Thought. “There are a lot of kids in need and every little bit helps us in that equation,” said Bob Bell, co-founder of Food For Thought Denver. “People like Jimmy and the contributions like that is what the whole program is built on.” Dessert boxes are available at desserted.co

Big cast no problem as NHS kicks off ‘Curtains’ Northglenn’s spring musical debuts Feb. 28 BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As a director and high school drama coach, Northglenn High School’s Rene Bevier Dill had a unique problem coming into 2019. “We did `Les Miserables’ last year and we got a lot of response and we ended up with a huge cast,” Dill said. “So we came in this year and I need play that had a lot of parts.” Northglenn High School presents their spring musical “Curtains” beginning Feb. 28 through March 2. The show is a musical within a musical and a whodunnit as well a western. It follows Boston police detective Lt. Frank Cioffi as he investigates a series of murders taking place behind the scenes of a fictional 1950s off-broadway Western musical, “Robbin’ Hood.” The cast, full of potential killers and victims alike, are forced to stay locked together in the theater while Cioffi completes his investigation — and falls in love with the play’s ingenue. Most importantly for Dill, it has a big cast. “It has a lot of parts, especially for guys,” Dill said. “We have a ton of guy talent, which doesn’t happen all the time. So when I looked at this script and all the parts, we

knew we could to it.” In all, Dill said 34 students are filling the roles in the school’s spring musical. “I always look at the talent we have for the coming year,” she said. “We don’t pre-cast but we have to know going in who is likely to come back and make sure we have enough roles for them.” Dill said she saw a performance of “Curtains” at the Arvada Center and had it on her wish list. It’s a perfect play for high school thespians, she said. “It’s a love story told in musical theater, but it’s really just about how fun it is to put on a show,” Dill said. “And that gets mixed in with murder.” The story was written by Rupert Holmes, who wrote the 1970s hit “Escape (the Pina Colada song)” but the music and lyrics come from team of Fred Ebb and John Kander, the team behind 1966’s “Cabaret”, 1976’s “Chicago” and host of others. “Curtains,” which debuted on Broadway in 2006, was Ebb’s last show. “He actually died before it went to Broadway and there is a song in it titled `I Miss the Music,’” Dill said. “It’s about missing your teammate when you are writing a show.” Dill said she was to tap two members of the original Broadway cast to come talk to the students in January as they were preparing the play. Patty Gobel, who played the original Jessica Cranshaw in the Broadway production and Noah Racey, who played Bobby

It’s the last time the stage’s blue and black curtains will be used. The Adams 12 School District has agreed to purchase new stage dressings, so Dill — an Northglenn alum herself — said next year’s stage should have new curtains.

Suburbanites show political divide based on background Urban, rural roots show lingering effects on beliefs as residents resettle

said Nancy Wieman, 63, a registered Republican and staunch conservative who has lived in Jefferson County in the west Denver suburbs her entire life. “The ones who are markedly liberal have moved from Denver or other cities.” Suburbanites who previously lived in a city are about as likely as city-dwellers to call themselves Democrats, the survey found. Similarly, Americans living in suburbs who have never resided in an urban area are about as likely as rural residents to say they are Republican. Just 15 percent of suburban Americans say they are independent and do not lean toward a party, compared with 25 percent of urban Americans and 30 percent of rural Americans who call themselves politically independent. That divide extends to the White House: 72 percent of ex-urban suburbanites disapprove of President Donald Trump’s performance in office, as do 77 percent of city residents. That compares with the 57 percent of suburbanites who have not previously lived in a city and 54 percent

BY NICHOLAS RICCARDI AND HANNAH FINGERHUT ASSOCIATED PRESS

America’s suburbs are today’s great political battleground, long seen as an independent pivot between the country’s liberal cities and conservative small towns and rural expanse. But it’s not that simple. It turns out that these places in-between may be the most politically polarized of all — and when figuring out the partisan leanings of people living in the suburbs, where they came from makes a difference. Fewer suburbanites describe themselves as politically independent than do residents of the nation’s urban and rural areas, according to a survey released on Feb. 19 by the University of Chicago Harris School for Public Policy and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. The poll also found that the partisan leanings of suburban residents are closely linked to whether they have previously lived in a city. “In the last decade, particularly in the past five years, I’ve felt a shift in having some liberal neighbors,”

of rural Americans who say they disapprove of the president. Moving from middle Kevin Keelan moved from Denver to Jefferson County 16 years ago. Once a political independent, the 49-year-old registered as a Democrat a few years ago. “Now it’s not even an option. I’d vote Democratic or independent, but there’s no way I can vote Republican anymore,” Keelan said. “It’s just being more open-minded, and I’d be that way if I was living here or in a loft downtown.” Jefferson County, once right-leaning, has been reshaped by an influx of transplants from coastal, urban states. It now leans Democratic: The party swept countywide offices and won most of the state legislative districts there in 2018, and Hillary Clinton won the county by 7 percentage points in 2016. Yet under that surface, election results from 2016 show it is a deeply polarized place. In 118 precincts in Jefferson County, one of the candidates won by more than 10 points. Clinton won 60 precincts and Trump 58. “The chasm between the two sides is greater than ever,” said Libby Szabo, a Republican county commissioner. “It’s harder at this point, because the ideals are so different, to even change parties.” The UChicago Harris/AP-NORC poll points to how that split between urban and rural America echoes through the suburbs. About two-thirds of city dwellers say that legal immigration is a net benefit to the United States, much as the 7 in 10 former city residents now living in the suburbs who say the same. A smaller majority of suburbanites who have never lived in cities, 58 percent, and half of rural residents think the benefits of legal immigration outweigh the risks. Urban/rural split Urban residents are somewhat more likely than rural residents to think the U.S. should be active in world affairs, 37 percent to 24 percent. That mirrors the split between suburbanites who used to live in cities and those who never have: 32 percent of the former favor an active U.S. role, compared with 23 percent of the latter. About 6 in 10 urban residents and ex-urban suburbanites say that the way things are going in the U.S. will

S.A. Campbell is a general contractor who lives in the Kansas City suburbs of Johnson County, Kansas, which swung toward the Democrats in 2018 as it replaced a four-term Republican congressman with a Democratic woman who is an openly gay Native American. It is often compared to Jefferson County, with its highly educated population, highquality schools and influx of previous city dwellers. Campbell, 60, said his childhood in Kansas City is part of what made him a supporter of Democrats; his parents were both teachers active in their union, and his mother was a supporter of Planned Parenthood. “When you’ve been raised in a certain fashion, your view of the world is more open than if you grew up in a household that wasn’t that,” he said. George Stern, the newly elected clerk in Jefferson County, has lived in New York City and spent parts of his childhood on a remote Colorado ranch. He sees partisan attitudes hardening in the suburbs much as they have in urban and rural parts of the country. But, he said, there’s a key difference: While there may be fewer independents in the suburbs, the mixture of loyal Democrats and Republicans means it’s still a place for both sides. “You’re welcome regardless of your political beliefs,” said Stern, a Democrat and volunteer firefighter in a suburban department with a wide range of political views in the station. “It becomes harder to live in rural or urban areas if your political beliefs don’t match those of the majority of the people who live there.”

Bill would place more judges in stressed judicial districts Caseloads, felony filings, grow amid staff shortage in some judicial districts BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In some Colorado district courtrooms, a continually growing caseload is overwhelming staff. Dockets are swelling. Felony case filings in particular have spiked across the state in recent years. That’s the scenario painted by a funding request late last year from the Colorado Judicial Department. The document spells out the department’s hope to add district court judges in nearly half of the state’s judicial districts, and a bill is moving through the legislature to get it done. Senate Bill 19-043, introduced in January, would mitigate some of those issues by funding 15 more judges and their support staff in 10 of the state’s 22 judicial districts. The judicial department submitted its funding request Nov. 1. But the state Constitution requires legislation to adjust the number of district judges. The bill must receive a twothirds majority vote in each legislative house to pass. It passed final reading in the Senate on Feb. 7 and was scheduled to go before the House Judiciary Committee on Feb. 19. As it stands now, the bill would appropriate $7.6 million to the judicial department. “Getting more judges is really the only solution at this point,” State Court Administrator Christopher Ryan said. ‘We are not doing justice’ If approved, S.B. 19-043 would add one judge to the 1st, 8th, 10th, 13th, 17th, 18th and 21st judicial districts; two judges in the 4th and 19th district; and four judges in the 2nd Judicial District. In the metro area, Jefferson County is in the 1st district, Denver is in the 2nd, Adams and Broomfield are in the 17th, and Arapahoe, Douglas and Elbert counties are in the 18th. The 10 districts named in the funding request were among 13 in the state staffed below 80 percent and needing at least one additional judge to handle caseloads, the document says. The longer cases take to move through the system, Ryan said, the greater level of strain on the pub-

lic, such as victims of crimes who can be re-traumatized by drawn-out proceedings or, similarly, child victims of neglect, who may go without timely resolutions to their cases. “If the appropriate attention is not being placed on every single case,” said State Rep. Leslie Herod, D-Denver, one of the bill’s sponsors, “then we are not doing justice.” Herod thinks the number of judges proposed in the 10 districts is appropriate, although she said they were conservative in some areas. Ultimately, Herod believes the legislation offers a straightforward solution to what she described as an issue of due process. Additional judges mean more people available to preside over cases and process them faster. Bill failure, she said, will only result in further delays to justice. As courts remain understaffed and caseloads grow so, too, do docket sizes for trial courts and court hearings alike. “Docket days are long,” said 18th Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler, adding that judges can continue cases for any number of reasons, not just ones related to issues spelled out in the funding request. The issue can’t be ignored, Herod said. “We’re bursting at the seams in our courts.” If the bill passes, judges would be appointed and could assume their posts as soon as July 1. Ryan said the department anticipates about twothirds of the judges would oversee criminal courts and the remaining third would have civil, domestic, family or probate dockets. The 1st Judicial District, comprising Jefferson and Gilpin counties, last received a judgeship in fiscal year 2009. The 18th Judicial District, which officials have discussed splitting into two in part because of its size, last received a judgeship in fiscal year 2015. The 17th Judicial District comprising Adams and Broomfield counties last received one in fiscal year 2010. Felony filings on the rise Courts experienced an overall increase in their caseload over the past decade, but particularly among felony crimes, which surged by approximately 44 percent statewide over the past five years. The number of drug crimes led the way with a 92 percent increase since 2013. Arson, weapon violations, assault, bail violations and homicide were other areas where felony filings

rose significantly during that period. In fiscal year 2018, the state counted 54,500 felony criminal filings. Ryan said the upward trend among felony crimes is universal — meaning it’s statewide and not targeted to any one district. He doesn’t believe it to the be the result of different prosecutorial practices or the state’s population boom. Overall, crime rates remained flat, despite the influx of people, he said. He believes whatever is driving the rise in felonies remains mostly unknown. “I think we’ve had a large number of people kind of looking into that and they can’t come up with any kind of consensus,” Ryan said. It does, however, appear to be unique to Colorado, Ryan said. Brauchler believes, as the data suggests, that drug crimes are a significant contributing factor. That includes crimes related to the marijuana black market, he said, which can extend into other areas like assault or homicide. Or, cases where substance dependencies led people to commit property crimes. A new felony DUI created in recent years could be another factor, he said. The issue of rising felonies circles back to issues affecting overwhelmed courts. Felony crimes require a higher level of resources and manpower: “The sharp increase in resource-intensive caseloads has brought district judicial officer workload to critically

high and unsustainable levels,” says the judicial department’s funding request.

‘We just need more judges’ Brauchler noted that new judgeships also create unfunded mandates for counties, meaning if the bills passes, counties will have to fund some of the personnel who will work in those courtrooms. Ryan said as the judicial department chose districts in which to add judges, it first ensured courtrooms would be available, to prevent an unfunded mandate to build more courtrooms. Douglas County has two vacant courtrooms. But Brauchler said as judgeships are added, he must then assign additional prosecutors and investigators to their courts — and those personnel are funded by the county, not the state. “So, I’m going to have to go to my commissioners in this next budget cycle,” he said, “and say I need more money.” Brauchler supports S.B. 19-043, but says it isn’t perfect. An added judge in his jurisdiction — encompassing Arapahoe, Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln counties — provides some relief, but Brauchler would prefer to see three or four more judges in his jurisdiction. “Yes, I’m thrilled we’re getting another one,” he said. “But it’s not nearly enough. We just need more judges.”

Bill would allow temporary removal of guns from high-risk owners Democratic state legislators introduce ‘red-flag’ measure BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Introduced on the anniversary of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting, a bill Report to allow law enforcement to remove firearms from those shown to be a risk to themselves or others has emerged again at the state Capitol after last year’s defeat by a then-Republican Senate. “We are on the clock of trying to save people’s lives,” said state Rep. Tom Sullivan, a Centennial Democrat whose son was killed in the 2012 Aurora theater shooting. Bearing the name of a Douglas County sheriff ’s deputy who was killed when a reportedly mentally ill man shot him and four other officers on Dec. 31, 2017, the Deputy Zackari Parrish III Violence Prevention Act faces a different political landscape than last year. Now with a majority in the state House and state Senate, Democrats are expected to pass the measure —

Capitol

known as a “red flag” bill — which comes with some changes from last year’s version that have alienated some Republicans. The prior proposal enjoyed the support of then-state Rep. Cole Wist, a top sponsor of that bill, and 18th Judicial District Attorney George Sullivan Brauchler — both Republicans. “There are significant material differences in this year’s bill,” Wist, who in November was unseated by Sullivan, said in a tweet. “I am opposed and urge the General Assembly to vote no.” Spurlock Along with Sullivan, House Majority Leader Alec Garnett, of Denver, and Sens. Brittany Pettersen, of Lakewood, and Lois Court, of Denver — all Democrats — are top sponsors of the bill, which was introduced Feb. 14. It passed the Brauchler House Judiciary Committee a week later to move closer to a full vote. ‘No bill perfect for everyone’ Under the bill, a family or household member or a law enforcement officer can petition a court to allow

officers to remove a person’s guns. The requester must prove that the person poses a “significant risk” to self or others in having or purchasing a gun. A temporary extreme risk protection order can prohibit a person from having firearms for up to 14 days. After that, if the requester can prove the person is a risk — under a higher standard of evidence — the court can issue a continuing order, preventing the person from having or buying a gun for 364 days. The court would appoint an attorney, at no cost, to represent the person during that second court hearing. At issue for Wist are the longer time periods a person can remain without their guns: This year’s bill doubles the length of both the temporary and continuing orders, compared to last year’s. It also shifts the burden of proof to the person whose guns are taken, rather than the person who requested the order, to prove to the court that the guns should be returned before the 364 days end. That’s another issue for Wist and Brauchler. “I don’t want you to say there’s no form of this bill that I’d support,” said Brauchler, the DA for the district comprising Arapahoe, Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln counties. “To Sullivan and Garnett’s credit, they’ve made some changes.” Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock, also a Republican, has been in meetings with lawmakers at the Capitol, pushing for changes like keeping the burden of proof on the requester rather than the person who may be a risk. But like last year, Spurlock is in favor. “I have issues with it as well, but there’s no bill that is perfect for everyone,” Spurlock said. “Way too many politicians are making this about guns, and it’s not. This is about mental health issues.” Spurlock noted the court would be able to put a person under a 72-hour mental health hold, with evaluation and treatment, if they’re shown to be in need of it. “The goal is not to break down someone’s door and take his guns,” Spurlock said. The process of taking someone’s guns wouldn’t always start that way, Spurlock added — if a person isn’t in mental health crisis, law enforcement would have a conversation with them. On the question of that situation escalating to use of force, Spurlock said people shouldn’t think that would be frequent. “That’s looking into a crystal ball,” Spurlock said. “We contact people every day with mental health issues that (involve) no use of force.” Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser, a Democrat, said the bill is constitutional and annouced his support for it in a news release Feb. 21, saying “reasonable restrictions” on some groups, including those with mental illness, are permissible based on a Supreme Court decision. ‘Violation of due process’ The bill isn’t aimed squarely at

preventing mass shootings, which are often a “sudden instance,” Sullivan said. “This is another tool that law enforcement has been asking for to help them to do their job as effectively as they can,” Sullivan said. “And that’s what we should be doing.” Brauchler, who prosecuted the Aurora theater shooter, said he hopes such a bill could have an effect on mass shootings, but it’s difficult to tell. “Even the Aurora theater (shooter), I don’t know that this law, had it been on the books before July 20, 2012, would have stopped it,” Brauchler said. “But for Zack Parrish’s case, I’m pretty convinced that there would have been an intervention that stopped that from happening.” Deputies were attempting to place Parrish’s shooter on a mental health hold when he opened fire, but deputies had contacted him multiple times before, Spurlock said. The suspected shooter at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland also was known to local law enforcement as troubled. Some oppose the proposal in more broad terms, though, like Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, a gun-rights group that says it has more than 200,000 members and supporters statewide. “Colorado gun owners loudly oppose so-called ‘red flag’ schemes because they are a gross violation of due process protections,” said Dudley Brown, executive director of the group, in a news release. “The bill will do nothing to prevent another Columbine, Aurora, or Parkland.” Democrats “missed the chance” to write a bill that protects Coloradans’ civil rights, House Minority Leader Patrick Neville said in a Feb. 21 news release. “The very real threat exists that innocent people will be stigmatized as dangerous. I have seen this happen with veterans and friends of mine that I served with in the military,” said Neville, R-Castle Rock. “People who actually need help will be dissuaded from seeking it out of concern about their rights being taken away.” ‘Reducing these tragedies’ Under the bill, the person whose guns are taken can ask the court once to end the order, and they would also have the burden of proving that the order should end. The requester could ask for an extension of the order before it expires if they can prove the person still poses a risk. “We’re not infringing on someone’s Second Amendment right,” Spurlock said. “We’re not taking those guns permanently. They’re removed until someone is treated and cared for.” On potential changes to the bill, Spurlock wants to see if the guns could be transferred to a family member instead of law enforcement taking them. He also seeks SEE BILL, P11

‘Oh my god, get me out of here’ Details emerge in court as to why Cymone Duran was shot and burned STAFF REPORT

The remains of Cymone Reyna Duran were discovered around 1:30 a.m. on Nov. 5 by Pleasant View and Golden firefighters as they put out a small brush fire near the intersection of Nile Street and West Seventh Avenue, in the vicinity of I-70 and West Colfax Avenue just outside Golden. Now a district court judge fsays there is enough evidence to proceed towards trial for three men accused of murdering 28-year-old Duran. The preliminary hearing in Jefferson County Court for Abel Gallegos, 35; Alonso Quintana, 27; and Rene Rosales, 35, took place on Feb. 20. Duran, a Denver resident and mother of two daughters, had been shot multiple times before being set on fire according to the Jefferson County Sheriff ’s deputies who began the investigation into her death. A preliminary hearing is where porsecutors attempt to show a judge enough evidence to justify a trial. Defendants are not required to offer a defense during a preliminary hearing. The prosecution presented five witnesses — all law enforcement officers — at the Feb. 20 hearing. Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Officer TJ Woodin, the lead homicide investigator, testified that an Uber driver had gone to the Arvada Police Department and said he was present at the time of the murder. The Uber driver had been in contact with Gallegos for about a month prior to the murder through his Uber driving services, and he had been driving Gallegos and Rosales around on Nov. 4, Woodin said. Testimony revealed that Duran was at a friend’s home on Nov. 4 when Rosales, with the nickname of Monster, and Gallegos, with the

nickname of Demon, showed up for some sort of drug transaction, Woodin said. Duran left with Rosales and Gallegos, and the Uber driver drove them to a couple of different stops before dropping Rosales off at his residence in Englewood, Woodin said. The Uber driver then took Gallegos and Duran to Gallegos’ room at the Trail’s End Motel, 9025 W. Colfax Ave., in Lakewood. At the motel, Duran told the Uber driver she sensed “something wasn’t right,” Woodin said during his testimony. However, a few minutes later, Duran and Gallegos got back in the Uber driver’s car because Gallegos wanted to meet up with somebody else, Woodin said. They went to a liquor store, but it was closed, and then went to a McDonald’s near West Colfax Avenue and Kipling Street where a dark blue Chevy Suburban was parked, Woodin said. Duran and Gallegos got out of the Uber vehicle, but once Duran recognized who was in the Suburban, she ran back to the Uber driver and said, “Oh my God, get me out of here,” Woodin said during testimony. The man in the suburban, identified in testimony as Quintana, had a gun pointed at Duran and he was yelling at her, saying that she “snitched” on him, Woodin said. Duran and Gallegos got back in the Uber vehicle and they make their way to the area of Nile Street and West Seventh Avenue, with Quintana following them in the suburban, Woodin said. There, Woodin testified Duran was yanked out of the car by the men, and that the Uber driver said he heard Duran scream and gunshots. Gallegos told the Uber driver that that if he told anyone about the incident, “the same thing would happen to him,” Woodin said. Quintana got back in the suburban. Gallegos got into the Uber driver’s car, and he and the Uber driver made their way back to Rosales’ house, Woodin said. It was Rosales’ idea to burn the body, Woodin said. Rosales purchased a gas can from a

7-11, and the Uber driver, Rosales and Gallegos go back to Nile Street and West Seventh Avenue, Woodin said, and lit Duran’s body on fire, Woodin said. GPS tracking places the Uber driver’s car at the time and locations in his statement, Woodin said during testimony. Attempted murder Quintana is scheduled for a jury trial in Adams County in May on a charge of attempted first-degree homicide, for an incident dating back to 2010. At the Feb. 20 preliminary hearing in Jefferson County, the prosecution called Det. Mark Faulhaber to testify on the Adams County incident and its connection to Duran’s murder. Faulhaber is currently with the Commerce City police department, but had previously been an officer with Adams County. Faulhaber testified that Quintana was suspected in a 2010 shooting that Duran had been a witness to. She had been called on a couple of times to identify the shooter, but it wasn’t until April 2018 that she positively identified Quintana in a line up. Quintana learned that Duran identified him from the line up during a preliminary hearing for that case, Faulhaber said. Quintana posted a $100,000 surety bail bond in Adams County on June 29, 2018.

Charges and arraignment In the Jefferson County case, charges vary slightly for Gallegos, Quintana and Rosales. Gallegos faces 19 charges, with 11 of them felonies; Quintana faces 13 charges, with seven of them felonies; and Rosales faces nine charges, with four of them felonies. Both Gallegos and Quintana face two counts of first-degree murder, second-degree kidnapping, possession of a weapon by a previous offender and retaliation against a witness or victim. Rosales faces a felony charge of accessory to a crime of first-degree murder. Gallegos and Rosales are both being charged with tampering with a deceased body and tampering with physical evidence. Gallegos is being charged with second-degree assault and possession with intent to manufacture or distribute a controlled substance. Quintana faces a felony charge of violation of bail bond conditions. All three men face a felony charge of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, and non-felony charges of being a habitual criminal. However, Gallegos and Quintana are being held without bond. Rosales’ bond was set at $250,000 on Nov. 16. As of the Feb. 20 hearing, he remained in custody. All three men will be arraigned at 8:30 a.m. April 4.

Time to tackle barriers to the blind, advocates tell Crow Congressman urged to support legislation to assist those with vision disabilities BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Blind people face systemic barriers to independence, and it’s time to address them. That was the message from leaders in the blind community at the Colorado Center for the Blind to U.S. Rep. Jason Crow during a tour of the Littleton facility on Feb. 19. Blind people face high unemployment rates, low wages, hard-to-use technology and steep prices for necessary medical devices, the center’s leaders told Crow, and they’re hoping a host of bills currently making their way through Congress can help. Crow, a Democrat who represents Colorado’s 6th Congressional District — which includes Littleton, Centennial, Highlands Ranch and Aurora, among other areas — became the first member of Congress to visit the center. He got a rundown of the facility’s wide-ranging programs — and of legislative efforts championed by the center and the National Federation for the Blind, or NFB. “The NFB believes blind people can live the lives they want, but they need

the opportunity, the training, and a fair shake,” said NFB Colorado President Scott LaBarre said. The center, which draws students from around the world for an immersive life skills curriculum aimed at instilling independence, is the showpiece of NFB Colorado. But the center’s efforts can’t conquer the systemic barriers faced by the nation’s roughly 2 million legally blind people, said NFB Colorado President Scott LaBarre. Home appliances and devices are increasingly difficult for blind people to use as manufacturers transition from knobs and buttons to touch screens, LaBarre said. “Thank God I have one of the last washing machines without a touch screen,” said LaBarre, who is blind. Many medical devices are also transitioning to touch screens, said Julie Deden, the center’s director. “Many blind people are diabetic, and insulin pumps often aren’t accessible without help,” Deden said. The Greater Accessibility and Independence through Nonvisual Access Technology (GAIN) Act would compel manufacturers to include audible screen reading technology in new devices, according to NFB materials. The act has not yet been introduced to Congress. Another agenda item, the Access Technology Affordability Act, would provide a refundable tax credit for crucial access devices that are often hugely expensive, LaBarre said.

Congressman Jason Crow, left, and Scott LaBarre, the president of the National Federation for the Blind of Colorado, tour Littleton’s Colorado Center for the Blind on Feb. 19. LaBarre and the center’s leaders urged Crow, a Democrat who represents Colorado’s Sixth Congressional District in Congress, to support a host of legislative efforts to reduce barriers to success for the blind. DAVID GILBERT Braille reading and writing devices can cost thousands of dollars, according to NFB materials, but can prove invaluable to helping blind people maintain employment and stay connected to the world. The devices are seldom covered by medical insurance, LaBarre said. The bill enjoys bipartisan support, but is currently stalled out in Congress. Another act would address employment barriers. Nearly three-quarters of blind people are unemployed or underemployed, according to NFB materials, and often find themselves hampered by antiquated training programs that relegate the blind to menial, repetitive tasks. The Disability Employment Act would reform training programs, tax incentives and government contracts to prioritize workers who are blind or disabled, according to NFB materials. The bill has not yet seen the floor of Congress. A recently added legislative priority would address a decades-old law that allows employers to pay employees who are blind or disabled less than minimum wage.

The law was originally written with the intent that employers would provide training and vocational programs, LaBarre said, but “in practice, we’ve seen that almost never happens.” The Transition to Competitive Employment Act would phase out subminimum wages over six years. Two forms of the bill are currently before the House and Senate. The legislative agenda could mean a world of difference to blind people nationwide, Deden said — and pressed that the numbers of blind people are growing. “As baby boomers age, macular degeneration is increasing,” Deden said. Crow wasn’t ready to confirm his support of the legislative agenda, saying he needed to read the text of the bills first. But he said, “these seem like things that are consistent with my values: giving everyone an opportunity to succeed and fulfill their potential.” LaBarre said he was pleased with the meeting. “It’s always reassuring to work with elected officials who listen and take a genuine interest,” LaBarre said. “We’re encouraged.”

Girls and their families will learn about STEAM fields at the fifth annual Girls & Science event at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. Career mentors working in the science, technology, engineering, arts and math fields, along with professionals participating in “Stories with Scientists” and small-group mentor meetups will put on eight Science Clubhouses to encourage girls and their families to try careers on, test them out and play. “I’m so excited to be part of this event,” Amber Menzies, building operations manager at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science and a career mentor, said in a news release. “There are so many ways to connect to science and inspire people to follow their curiosity. I can’t wait to share the work my team and I do at the Museum, meet the other Career Mentors and watch those sparks of excitement

ignite.” The annual one-day event is March 2, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the museum, 2001 Colorado Blvd. It is open to all ages, and the activities will be geared to girls ages 8-13. According to a 2018 report from the National Science Foundation, 29 percent of science and engineering jobs are held by women, the news release says. The museum and CBS4, KCNCTV, host this event to inspire students to pursue their interests in STEAM and increase participation and parity among women and other underrepresented groups in these careers. Because girls and all students are inspired to pursue STEAM topics when adults and peers believe in them and encourage them, Girls & Science is an event designed for families, friends, teachers, mentors and extended social groups to experience together. Limited parking is available for free at the museum, but consider using alternative transportation.

Shooting death of dog spurs reward for information Animal’s body was found behind dumpster weeks after pet went missing BY TABATHA STEWART SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

When Holly Fitterer-Thibault’s beloved dog Bishop went missing Dec. 27, she posted 200 fliers around Elizabeth and throughout Elbert County, offering a $500 reward for his return. She also posted on social media, pleading for neighbors to keep their eyes open for the family pet, which, she says, brought an overwhelming response from people who helped search for Bishop. Bishop’s body was found Feb. 16, nearly seven weeks later, behind a dumpster at the end of her neighborhood, killed by a gunshot wound to the neck with a large-caliber bullet, less than two blocks away from a poster offering a reward for the pit bull’s return. Fitterer-Thibault believes Bishop’s killing was not due to him disturbing livestock, but rather the result of nefarious activity going on in the county. “I feel we have a disturbed person around here,” said FittererThibault. “I try not to think about the one bad person out there who would do this, especially after so many good people who offered to help.” Fitterer-Thibault said she contacted the Elbert County Sheriff ’s Office and has filed a report. She

posted her story on social media and offered a $500 reward initially for information on the shooter, but after several community members responded with donations, the reward is now in excess of $1,400. “The best we can do right now is look into it with all the information that was provided by the victim,” Elbert County Sheriff Tim Norton said. “Right now, we’re at a standstill unless we get more information like a witness, or a lead. If anyone has concerns, they should absolutely call us.” Members of the Elbert County Nextdoor website responded with recent stories of animals being shot, dumped or beaten, and also fear there is an increase in animal cruelty in the county. According to Fitterer-Thibault, the condition of Bishop’s body indicated he had only been killed a few days before, leaving her to wonder who had him for the seven weeks leading up to the discovery. “It disturbs me that someone would shoot him and dump him. Who would pass up a $500 reward just to kill him and leave his body?” said Fitterer-Thibault. “I hope we can stop this from happening to other animals, and I think as a community we need to keep our eyes open for any suspicious activity, and report it.” Colorado statute 35-43-126 states: “Any dog found running, worrying or injuring sheep, cattle, or other livestock may be killed, and the owner or harborer of such dog shall be liable for all damages done by it.” An annotation states: “Authoriza-

tion to kill contains no limitations with respect to vicious dogs or any stipulation that an effort first be made to drive them away by warning shots or otherwise, or that they may be killed only after damage is done to cattle.” Fitterer-Thibault said she was aware of the statute, but doesn’t believe Bishop was killed by a rancher protecting their livestock. “We have horses of our own, and Bishop was always very good with them. Sometimes I think he thought he was a horse,” she said. “Plus, this was in a part of the county where there’s not really livestock.” Elizabeth Police Chief Stephen Hasler said he was not aware of an increase in domestic animal deaths within the town, but said residents often take to social media when they should contact the police department. “I’m not aware of any reports about any dogs, cats, or even parakeets killed within the town,” said Hasler. “But my concern would be whether or not there is a spike all of a sudden. I haven’t heard any official reports, but I know there are rumors floating around town.” Hasler stressed the importance of contacting local law enforcement is cases like Bishop’s. “Absolutely call us,” he said. “We’ll determine if it’s a specific incident or a crime. We can only determine if there’s an increase or a pattern if we are notified.” Anyone with concerns or reports should contact dispatch of Elizabeth Police Department at 303-646-4664, or Elbert County Sheriff ’s Office at 303-621-2027.

Forming a pipeline for future talent Mines and Lockheed Martin host event to inspire potential aerospace engineers BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Aerospace is a worldwide endeavor. “It is one thing that unites the nation, and it unites the world,” said Paul Anderson, the Orion program director with Lockheed Martin. “And it even goes beyond that.” On Feb. 19, as part of National Engineers Week, Feb. 18-22, Lockheed Martin partnered with the Colorado School of Mines to bring together Lockheed Martin’s aerospace engineers, current Mines students and high school seniors from across the state. About 20 Lockheed Martin engineers — all Mines alum — participated in the event, and about 25 high schoolers — all who have been accepted to Mines — at-

tended the event. The high school students received lab tours on Mines campus where they got to see graduate students at work, and an opportunity to “talk shop” during a mentoring luncheon with the Lockheed Martin engineers, said Cynthia Howell, research faculty at Mines with the critical materials institute. “They got the whole spectrum,” Howell said. “What’s offered at Mines, and where they can go with a degree from Mines. This was an opportunity for us to wow them.” The event also included a parent tract so parents could learn about Mines and have their questions answered, Howell said. This year was the seventh year for the event to happen, and it has always been a joint effort between Mines and Lockheed Martin. Mines’ partnerships with industry enrich the school, said Mines President Paul Johnson in his address to the high schoolers. And in turn, he said, employers commend Mines’ graduates. “We have always been a producer of

outstanding engineers,” Johnson said to the students. He added that the number one thing employers say about Mines graduates is that “they are the best team players.” This is followed by Mines graduates accomplish their tasks and that they are resilient and can overcome challenges, Johnson said to the students. During the mentoring luncheon, the high schoolers, current Mines students and Lockheed Martin engineers chatted in small, rotating groups to share stories — the experience of attending Mines and what the aerospace engineers do at Lockheed Martin, for example. Anderson referred to the event as a pipeline for future talent. It’s an opportunity to get the best and brightest students, first, attracted to Mines, Anderson said, and then, get them interested in aerospace and excited for a potential future career in the field. And “the Lockheed Martin engineers will go back to work completely energized,” Anderson said. “For them to have the opportunity to influence the future is really energizing.”

How technology is reducing workers comp costs while improving workforce health CROSS CURRENTS

Bill Christopher

A

new acquaintance through the Metro North Chamber of Commerce introduced me to space age technology which is reducing worker’s compensation claims and sick leave taken. Les Simpson, CEO of Wellness Tech Plus, Inc. is a wealth of knowledge about different available technology. His firm and the State of Colorado formed the Workers’ Compensation Pilot for Downtime Reduction. Self-insured cities, counties or companies stand to gain from the extra savings participating in the pilot project. To reduce workers’ comp costs, accidents

need to be reduced. Most common claims are for falls, sprains, pulls and tears due to overexertion. Accidents are reduced by improving balance, reflexes and range of motion. Professional sports are using technology to smash through their own claims records. The LA Kings pro hockey team and the University of Southern California have endorsed the technology for all 18 sports. Reducing accidents through your feet Workers that use their muscles in their work stand to reduce injuries. They

include firefighters, police officers, parks and recreation, trash hauling, construction and more. The technology increases muscle control with added nerve energy. After six years and $5 million in research and development, that added nerve energy helps individuals avoid injury and be more productive. It is also clinically proven to reduce foot pain in 96 percent of participants. The technology is from Canada and has been in the U. S. for 18 months. The most SEE CHRISTOPHER, P15

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Taxpayers need a rainy day fund How great if Colorado would enact a Secure Savings Plan so that all Coloradans can have a rainy-day fund and a retirement plan. Our elected officials need a wake-up call! Thousands of Coloradans retire every year and we’ve not made it easy enough to have access to retirement savings accounts. Let’s establish a system that is portable, so the plan follows people when they switch jobs. And let’s set up a system that is auto-enrolling, so workers immediately start saving at a level that works for them when they

start their first job. Employers would have minimum record keeping, just another line on the pay stub. If workers want to opt out, they have that option but I think everyone will be pleasantly surprised to find out how few people will opt out of a savings plan. Coloradans want and need to save. Ask your lawmakers to pave the way. Without plans for the future, many more Coloradans will have to depend on government assistance just to get by and that burden falls on all of us.

CHRISTOPHER FROM PAGE 14

amazing part is that the nerve energy of the brain, which affects the whole body, is released through the ball of your feet. This technology is applied through socks and insoles. Just by changing your employees’ socks, their brains will help them avoid accidents and accelerate healing. Sounds crazy, right? No chemicals, magnetism, copper or electricity are involved. Just tactile touch to certain nerves benefits every cell and organ. Injured workers’ downtime cost the employer. Accelerated healing of the injury creates immediate savings. Accelerated healing is what Colorado Workers Comp wants the pilot project to prove. Once proven, they will release the finding to all worker comp providers. Reducing adverse drug reaction Another example is provided by PGx, or Pharmacogenetics Testing, which was developed by the Mayo Clinic and approved by FDA 14 years ago. Medications to ease the pain after injury can have many side effects with some being very serious. Les told me the story of a friend who was manually sawing trees. That night, police found him sleeping in the street. He spent 2 weeks in a mental ward before his mind started functioning again. According to American Medical Association, adverse drug reactions, or ADR, hospitalizes 5,000 people daily - with 350 dying daily. For injured workers, ADR can slow the healing process instead of helping it. With a simple cheek swab of a PGx DNA test, one trip to the doctor

merous crimes, and was sentenced to spend the remainder of his life in a seven-foot by twelve-foot cell with a single window three feet high by four inches wide. He’ll be incarcerated right down the road, in Florence, 40 miles south of Colorado Springs. A former warden, Robin Hood, said,

“This place is not designed for humanity. It is not designed for rehabilitation. Period. End of story.” I have no sympathy for Guzman, but I have thought about what would happen to someone who was confined and isolated as he will be, and if that wouldn’t be a virtual death.

can decide which pain killer is best for each patient. The Institute for Drug Abuse reports it usually takes three tries to find the right Opioid pain killer. Self-insured patients pay for each doctor visit and additional prescription costs. The Mayo Clinic states after 10,000 tests, their doctors can now prescribe the right medication at the right dosage the first time which generates immediate savings for self-insured employers. Unfortunately, most doctors have never heard of the test.

Better health through technology Remember the catch phrase “Better living through chemistry” on TV back in the day? Well, today perhaps the phrase would be “Better health through technology.” These three examples of utilizing new technology beyond their original uses has considerable merit in accelerating the healing process, getting employees back to work quicker and reducing worker’s compensation costs for employers. Risk management and HR departments in self-insuring organizations should take notice. These are leading-edge applica-

tions which have fairly widespread use among employee groups. They especially have applicability in local government organizations. Thanks Les, for the tutorial in human anatomy and how technology can assist in healing and overall health. He can be reached at lsimpson@wellnesstechplus. com should you want more information.

Improving nutrient and oxygen absorption via technology Here is a third example of technology at work which was designed in Germany. Currently, it is being used in 4,000 hospitals and clinics in 42 different countries to promote blood flow. It has been used in the U.S. for the past three years. The machine, which is a mat for home use, requires the individual to lay or sit on it for eight minutes in the morning and at night. It is clinically proven to increase blood flow by 29 percent. The blood feeds the cells the nutrients and oxygen that it needs for healing and removes the waste that clogs the cells. U.S. doctors are using it for sports injury recovery, detoxification and new tissue growth. Many major athletes are using the technology as their secret sauce. The Arizona Diamondbacks baseball team endorsed it for energy, endurance and recovery of injuries. The Race Across America bike racers have smashed two world records. They endorse the technology for sleep, energy and endurance. NASA has entered into an agreement to put the equipment into their space suits. The purpose is to reduce bone loss and muscle atrophy during space flights.

If you find your taxes confusing and results odd, you are not alone

T

he theme for this year’s tax season so far seems to be the double-whammy of a shortened filing period along with complications resulting from the tax reform of 14 months ago. It’s a lot to process! As most of us know, the IRS wasn’t even accepting e-filed (2018) returns until Jan. 28 of this year, which effectively shrinks the tax-return season to under 80 days. And this year, we are dealing with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA), which was mostly ignored by taxpayers until they arranged a chance to sit down with a professional tax preparer. We can all agree that there have been many rumors flying around about the TCJA. Let’s review some of the myths/assumptions and inaccuracies that I’ve heard from my clients: Medical-expense deductions were going to be repealed. No, they weren’t. Charities would be hurt because

of restrictions for GUEST individuals to take COLUMN donations as a tax deduction. Nope. Actually, the ability to deduct charitable contributions - if you can itemize - was increased. Home equity line (HELOC) interest deductions were eliminated. Not entirely! Fran Coet They are restricted, but not eliminated. A taxpayer can’t buy a new luxury car with the HELOC and then write-off the interest. But if you used the HELOC to make improvements to your home, then the interest is still deductible. Limitations do apply and it’s up to the taxpayer or the tax professional to “audit” the use of the HELOC funds. And people seem to believe that deductions were eliminated for “meals

and entertainment.” Not the case! Entertainment costs ARE eliminated as deductions, but many business-related food deductions are still applicable. For example, if you rent a skybox at the Rockies, the rental of the skybox is NON-DEDUCTIBLE. However, if the vender issues a SEPARATE invoice for food and drink, then the food and drink total will still be deductible at 50 percent. There are more problematic issues for companies who wrote off 100 percent for employees’ meals - e.g. pizzas every Friday night, or lunches for staff at a CPA firm during filing period - as those expenses will receive the same 50 percent haircut. This would be a good spot to underscore that meal deductions apply ONLY to businesses. If the taxpayer is an employee, all the job-related expenses are now ineligible for deduction by the employee. For example, the project manager who drives his own truck to job sites without reim-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Of bailouts and engine lights I like the picture of the “Amateur” in the editorial cartoon (Westminster Window, Feb. 14) on page 14: One guy is holding up another while CEOs and directors are laughing at them - since they are the professional robbers. It reminded me of bailouts of banks because they can’t fail. Small people could fail. Rep. Rachel Zenzinger’s observation is right (“We need a `check engine’ law that works for motorists,” Page 16, Westminster Window Feb. 14). All kind of lights can come up on a car panel and the problem could be only that the car gas cap is not tight or scheduled maintenance is due. The worst thing is when the “check engine” light comes on and then the emission station automatically declares a failing test. A solution should be, as Zenzinger suggested, to have “emissions failure” light. Would this end emission testings? For sure a new “emissions failure” light would boost up car prices substantially. On the other hand, why don’t emissions testers just disregard the `check engine’ and other lights and do a sufficient test. The lights are not for emission trouble. The test should do the job. No new light means less car price. Americus Kalmar, Westminster Reject `Red flag’ overreach It is my understanding that the current version of HR19-1177, the “red Flag” bill, does not require nor would it allow the accused person the be present at the initial legal proceedings concerning their possession of guns (an ex parte proceeding). As a result, the person would be deprived of the opportunity to know of the accusations made against them, to confront their accusers and to offer witnesses and evidence in their defense. While not a criminal trial with a bad outcome for the accused leading to imprisonment, it would lead to the immediate loss of their property. This flies in the face of our universally shared, commonly understood, sense of American Justice. This would be, for all intents and purposes a secret trial. This is the sort of thing practiced by an unjust government. This does not belong in American Law. This belongs in a dictatorship, the Chinese

bursement is ineligible for deduction. Other examples: all travel for employees, internet fees, office in the home expenses, professional dues, etc., etc. ALL non-deductible. So, if you weren’t paying attention to the tax law changes, or, worse yet, you assumed that your withholding was going to be the same in 2018 as it was in 2017, then you may be in for a very rude awakening. It may come in the form of lower refunds or (gasp!) maybe even a balance due. You can take your return to another preparer, you can fire TurboTax, but that may translate into more tax-preparation costs for the same result. And, please, file your return on time. If you don’t like the results on the initial return, you surely will not like additions of interest and penalties. Fran Coet is founder and owner of Coet2 CPAs in Westminster, www.Coet2. com.

or aficionados of a certain kind of English novel, the phrase “the moors” conjures up images of a mysterious, fog-shrouded lowlands where romance and danger go hand-inhand. In her 2016 work with that same title, playwright Jen Silverman took the conventions that writers like the Brönte sisters and Arthur Conan Doyle built into this location and turned them into a dark comedy. “One way we’re describing the show is ‘Wuthering Heights’ meets ‘The Addams Family,’” explained COMING Jessica RobATTRACTIONS actor blee. “There are a lot of mysteries to it, but there’s also a lot of fun in the play as well.” The regional premiere of “The Moors” runs at the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., through Clarke Reader May 18. The show is the second of three repertory productions at the center, with performances taking place at 1 p.m. on Wednesdays, 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays through Saturdays and 2 p.m. on Sundays. There will also be select Saturday matinées at 2 p.m. The show focuses on two sisters, their depressed mastiff dog (Geoffrey Kent) and their lonely life out on the moors. But with the appearance of a governess and a mooorhen, everyone’s life gets thrown into chaos. Robblee takes on the role of Huldey, one of the sisters, and Regina Fernandez plays Emilie, the home’s new governess. “The show reminds me of the great gothic thrillers like ‘Rebecca,’ but there’s also bits of ‘The Wizard of Oz’ and ‘Alice in Wonderland’ as well,” Fernandez said. “While it might seem like just a period piece, it’s really easy to access for modern audiences.” One thing the show has in common with the other two productions of the Black Box season — “The Diary of Anne Frank” and “Sin Street Social Club” — is a strong sense of location. Fernandez said the English moors are a vibrant character in the play, which adds to the emotional and darkly funny nature of the play. “Really, it’s just a beautiful show,” Robblee said. “There’s a real journey in the play, with a lot of nice surprises along the way.” SEE READER, P18

‘Interview with a Mexican’ prepares for first Northglenn performance For show coming to Northglenn Arts, “the goal is to have fun” BY CASEY VAN DIVIER CASEYVANDIVIER@YAHOO.COM

Naropa University professor Lorenzo Gonzalez goes beyond simply teaching about the theater: For months, he’s starred as Gold Hat in the play “Interview with a Mexican.” For Gonzalez, the role represents a chance to dismantle MexicanAmerican stereotypes — by playing a Mexican-American stereotype. “You have the big Mexican hat, right? Gold hat,” Gonzalez said. “There’s a lot of laughter in the process, because you know, laughter heals.”

Developed by director Tony Garcia, the show is based on writer Gustavo Arellano’s OC Weekly column, which addressed readers’ questions about the Mexican-American experience. A selection of these answers was later compiled into a book. After meeting Arellano at a lunch, Garcia became curious if the book would ever be adapted into a play. “As I inhaled as many tacos as I could, I asked Gustavo about the play, and he said, ‘That ain’t happening. You should do it,’ ” Garcia said. “And then it was scheduled.” Having opened in Denver in 2018, theater Su Teatro will bring “Interview with a Mexican” to Northglenn’s DL Parsons Theatre, 11801 Community Center Drive. The show will run as part of the Northglenn Arts Presents program, which partners with nearby organizations to bring diverse voices to the Northglenn arts scene.

Tension never leaves play on area stage ‘The Diary of Anne Frank’ grips audience with focused acting, direction BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The flat Black Box Theatre thrust stage at the Arvada Center is crowded with furniture: beds, a table, chairs, a chest, as the audience is seated for a performance of the remarkable “The Diary of Anne Frank,” which runs in repertory with two other plays through May 17. The Jewish Dutch girl, who didn’t live to fulfill her ambitions to become h a professional writer, left the world the “most widely read book about the Holocaust … translated into 70 languages, published in more than 60 countries. Selling over 35 million copies,” according to Christy MontourLarson, who directed this production. Montour-Larson has worked skillfully with a cast of 10 to tell a familiar story with really remarkable style, limited by a congested stage, where actors had to, in keeping with the story, refrain from any exuberant actions or shouts, no matter how frustrated their character may have been. They certainly learned to convey tension with a look on a face or clenched fist. This version of the play, adapted from the original by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, was released in 1995 by Wendy Kesselman, when previously edited passages of the original diary were added to a revised edition of the book. Anne’s comments about sexuality and accounts of her conflicts with her mother are included in this production. The original diary was found by the ever-brave Miep Gies

(Regina Fernandez), who was able to keep food and supplies — though meager — delivered to the family and the others hiding with them for two years. Gies was able to connect with Otto Frank, the only family member who lived, soon after World War II ended and give him Anne’s diary, which he determined to publish. (Anne died of an infection at Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.) It’s almost dark as the Franks: Anne (the astonishing young Darrow Klein), father Otto (Larry Kahn), mother Edith (Emily Paton Davies) and older sister Margot (Annie Barbour) file into the secret hiding place and are told to be totally quiet while the business downstairs was operating during the day — no water running, no loud noises. They move slowly, pull sheets off the furniture and settle in to what will be their home — for nearly two years, it turns out ... A message from the SS had summoned Margot to report to them and they had to flee quickly. Periodically, one hears loudspeakers blaring in the streets, adding to the tension that never leaves the scene. Otto’s business partner, Mr. von Daan (Abner Genece), his wife (Emma Messenger) and teenage son Peter (Daniel Crumrine) soon join the Franks, as does a dentist, Mr. Dussel (Zachary Andrews). And they must attempt to live in close quarters, with very limited food, a radio that keeps them abreast with war news, occasional books and for Anne, her diary and a pen. Of course, tempers flare, personalities become exaggerated and the fear of discovery is always there. SEE PLAY, P25

zalez said he enjoys stepping into a completely different role on stage. “Yeah, I don’t get to play La Profesora,” he said with a laugh. “And one of the highlights of that is I’ve really gotten a sense of how effective a weapon laughter is.” The show certainly relies on humor to send its message, which more than anything, Garcia said, is about encouraging others to “listen and learn.” “We clearly live in a time of division. We get to the point where we can’t talk,” he said. “We can offer an opportunity to laugh at our weaknesses. The goal is to have fun.” In addition to speaking to the broader community, Gonzalez said the show has special meaning for a Latino audience, particularly the younger audiences for which the cast has already performed. “The young audiences have those ‘aha moments’ of seeing themselves portrayed,” Gonzalez said. “There’s been this affirmation of `It’s OK to be who you are. It’s OK to be a MexicanAmerican.’” Although the show is about the Mexican-American experience, he added, it’s got something for everyone — mostly in the form of humor. “One of the lines in the play is ‘education and ridicule rolled into one juicy taco.’ So it’s like that,” Gonzalez said. “It’s like this instant vacation you can take, and there’s a lot of laughs.”

According to Michael Stricker, cultural programs supervisor at Northglenn Arts, this mission primarily aims to heighten diversity in the city. But it also winds up engaging the different communities already present in Northglenn, including the suburb’s notable Hispanic and Latino population. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 34.4 percent of the Northglenn population identifies as Hispanic or Latino. World Population Review also reported that 12.7 percent of the population speaks Spanish. “I knew we needed to bring it to Northglenn,” Stricker said of the show. “The show is absolutely hilarious and enlightening.” One of the show’s most unique facets is its departure from a conventional plotline, Gonzalez said. Instead, the show strings together a series of sketches in which characters often recite the answers Arellano gave in his column. “Some of the questions were asked with scorn, and Gustavo’s answers come in kind — really a zinger kind of thing,” Gonzalez said. “And when people were asking real questions, the answer came in a more didactic form.” To bolster the comedy, Garcia split Arellano’s personality into two characters: “Gold Hat,” who represents stereotypes about Mexican-Americans, and “La Profesora,” who delivers Arellano’s more scholastic answers.

Young Artist contest winner to perform March 31 Samuel Vargas, 22, to join Jefferson Symphony Orchestra for concert after winning 2019 competition STAFF REPORT

Violinist Samuel Vargas is the winner of Jefferson Symphony Orchestra’s 2019 Young Artists Competition. Vargas captivated the judges with his audition-winning performance of Jean Sibelius’ Violin Concerto in D Minor. The award of top-prize earned Vargas $3,000 and a guest

performance with Jefferson Symphony during its upcoming concert March 31. Vargas, 22, studies violin performance at the Schwob School of Music, Columbus State University in Georgia. Originally from Venezuela, Vargas started training on the violin when he was 11 years old. Over a few years, he received prizes from civic and nationwide arts performing groups. Prior performance roles include Concertmaster Ambassador for the 69th Anniversary of the United Nations, Classical Artist Award (2016) for Football Metropolitan Federation in Venezuela and solo appearances with the Simon Bolivar Orchestra under famed conductor

Gustavo Dudamel. The announcement of Vargas’s win follows a full day of competition Jan. 5 at Colorado Christian University; 11 finalists were selected after a live-audition round of performances. Contestants ranged in age from 14-23 and were attracted to Jefferson Symphony’s Young Artists Competition from all over the United States. The three judges unanimously awarded Samuel Vargas top-prize for his musicianship and bravura. A second place prize of $2,000 was awarded to Clayton Hancock, who performed Brahms’ Violin Concerto. Hancock, 17, resides in Memphis, Tennessee, and also performs in concerts and recitals around the state.

Third place and $1,000 was awarded to harpist Abigail Enssle, a student at Colorado State University. Now in its 60th year, the Jefferson Symphony competition has evolved from local contest to an international gathering of young musicians competing for solo artist privileges and scholarship money. This year’s focus was on stringed instruments — the concentration changes yearly — allowing contestants to showcase skills and talents unique to their instrument. The annual competition is cosponsored by the Jefferson Symphony Association and Colorado Christian University, its underwriters include Wilmot Charitable Trust and Karl and Karen Kappler.

For an actor, a quiet shift in weight or gesture of a hand speaks volumes on this subdued scene, and strong skills in both director and cast grow increasingly evident. Anne speaks as she writes in her diary, connecting the story and recounting incidents we may not have seen. Montour-Larsen quotes her at the start of her notes: “I don’t want to have lived for nothing like most people. I want to be useful or give pleasure to the people around me yet who don’t really know me. I want to go on living even after my death. And therefore, I am grateful to God for giving me tthis gift, this possibility of

developing myself and writing, of expressing all that is in me.” Readers know the story, but will want to see this excellent production, with a young lead as Anne, whom we will watch as she grows and continues to excel. The other two Black Box productions coming later this spring are: “The Moors,” by Jen Silverman, described by director Anthony Powell as “channeling the Bronte Legacy …” running Feb. 22-May 18; “Basin Street Social Club,” newly finished by local actor Jessica Austgen, running March 15 to May 19. Once all are up and running, they will alternate performances, and the stage will be transformed with each show, which is part of the fun of watching a rep company! See arvadacenter. org for dates.

Lady Mustangs’ offense can’t break loose in playoff defeat Mountain Range can’t find rythm versus Douglas County

Three-sport athlete is rare example in current times

C

BY ADAM HOTHERSALL SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Riding a two-game winning streak and an opening-round home playoff game Feb. 19, Mountain Range ladies basketball couldn’t find a rhythm against Douglas County (9-16, 3-7 in conference) in the 54-41 defeat. MR found themselves in the lead just twice all night, both in the first five minutes of the game. Behind a stellar defense, the Lady Mustangs’ allowed only three points in the first four minutes and 22 seconds, shadowing their offensive struggles with a 1-point lead. Douglas County took their first lead, 8-6, and they never turned back from there. “Their defense was tough, but we weren’t focused enough to do the things that we need to do,” Mountain Range coach Bill Giampietro said postgame. “They kept us off-timing, and they just sped the game up enough to throw us off of what we wanted to do. Hats off to them, they did a great job.” Despite being outscored by the road team 15-12 the remainder of the half, MR stuck around despite the barrage of three-pointers from DC. It felt as if MR was due to break through in the second half, particularly early, but that is when the Lady Huskies went on their run. After a sloppy first half by a Lady Mustang team much more organized than they showed, this downward trend continued the first few minutes of the third quarter with four turnovers in their first five possessions. Activity from the young DC squad defensively mixed with extended offensive opportunities behind relentless offensive rebounding put MR in a bind, and a 10-point deficit heading to the fourth. In the final frame, the home team looked dead in the water after the lead had swelled to 44-29 for Douglas County. But fortunately, as they have all season, the Lady Mustang’s weren’t going down without a fight. Going on a 12-4 run the next two minutes and 12 seconds, MR put themselves within striking distance with 1:43 remaining behind five quick points by senior Anna Giampietro. Unfortunately for the lady Mustangs, they ran out of time, as a mini 6-0 DC run put the game away. “We don’t have an on or off switch,” Giampietro said. “We have won some big games being down close to doubledigits, so I know we will keep plugging away, but we need to work hard to be more even-keeled. We played hard for 32 minutes, but we didn’t play smart

Lady Mustangs’ senior Anna Giampietro launches the three-pointer against Douglas County Feb. 19 in the first round of the state tournament. PHOTOS BY ADAM HOTHERSALL for 32 minutes.” In a game that didn’t go the way Giampietro and his team wanted, MR can keep their heads high as a 15-9 (7-5 in conference) record, a home playoff game and the celebration of two seniors in Allison Brich and Giampietro has this program continuing in the right direction. “One of those seniors is my daughter, and I’ve had her since second grade. It’s hard to be emotional right now because I love both girls. Ally has been a daughter to me also since I accepted the coaching role and luckily, I have had her for three years. It really hasn’t dawned on me that we are done and that I’m not going to see those girls on the floor, but the culture they brought as well as the unselfishness is what will hopefully stick for the six players that will be seniors next year. It was bittersweet to be able to coach them, give them a home playoff game, but definitely not the outcome I expected.”

Mountain Range sophomore Hannah Chavez goes up strong in the paint Feb. 19 against Douglas County in the opening round of the state playoffs. Giampietro scored a team-high 14 points as juniors Ashleigh Hinds and Lillian West recorded eight and seven respectively.

The Rock Canyon senior is a three-sport athlete, and these competitors are becoming harder to find in this age of specialization for athletes. It has become OVERTIME more common for athletes to specialize and concentrate on one sport to help their chances to play at the next level and obtain possible college athletic scholar- Jim Benton ships. The only place that three-sport athletes are common is at smaller Class A schools where athletes are needed to fill rosters for fall, winter and spring sports. Romero was a standout wide receiver on the Jaguars’ football team, a point guard on the basketball team and will be at shortstop for the baseball team after the basketball season concludes. “I feel real good about being a three-sport athlete,” said Romero. “A lot of people once they get into high school drop down to one sport but I really tried to play all three. I wasn’t really interested in playing college basketball but I still wanted to play that sport. “A lot of people feel that it helps to put all their eggs into one sport.” The transition between sports sometimes isn’t easy. “It’s tough not having that break between seasons,” admitted Romero. “It is kind of tough on your body, especially if you get like a little dink in another sport, but you have to continue on to the next sport. So you really can’t take any days off to recover.’’ Romero believes his involvement in three sports has helped him focus his free time on meaningful things and his academic studies. Many college recruiters and t coaches welcome multi-sport ath- R letes, and playing multiple sports e helps build different muscles. r Athletes competing in different y sports tend to have a lower injury s rate.

Horizon women, Holy Family teams advance in state playoffs Mens and Womens basketball playoff continuing BY ADAM HOTHERSALL SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

As five other teams in Holy Family (men’s and ladies), Horizon (men’s and ladies) and Legacy ladies took the floor last week; three left victorious: Holy Family (both groups) and Horizon live to fight another day. As respective No. 2 and four seeds with first-round byes, Holy Family’s girls and boys cruised to second-round victories. The Lady Tigers (19-5, 15-1 in conference) continued their winning streak, stretching the impressive run to 12 games. Behind 16, 12 and 11 points from senior Amanda Ward and sophomores Genevieve Gudino, Alyssa Wells apiece, the home team sailed to a 61-26 victory over (No. 34 seed) Glenwood Springs (14-11). For the men, much of the same, as the Tigers (20-4, 14-2 in conference) won their 8th game in their last nine tries. In an impressive defensive display, HF held visiting No. 29 seed Northfield to just 39 points in the 18-point win. Up next for Holy Family, the men will play at home against No. 13 Lincoln (18-6) Feb. 27 at 6 p.m. while the ladies will also host against (15) The Classical Academy (18-6) Feb. 26 at 6 p.m. Advancing also, Horizon ladies basketball kept things rolling with their 9th straight win Feb. 22 against (26) Far Northeast (17-8) in the second round of the state tournament. After receiving the opening round bye with their No. 7 seed, the Lady Hawks didn’t show any rust with a 27-point first quarter against the overwhelmed Lady Warriors. With a 79-36 smacking, four players, all seniors, scored in double-digits. Alyssa Jimenez (19), Arielle Wisne (16), Caleese Ramirez (15) and Samantha Deem (12) left their mark on this contest as they all season for the 20-4 (11-4 in conference) squad. Wisne, Deem and Jimenez also rounded-out their fantastic 2019 playoff debuts with 13,13 and 12 rebounds apiece. SEE PLAYOFFS, P28

ship offer to play football next season at Colorado School of Mines. With the basketball season wrapping up and baseball practice starting, Romero will be walking up the incline to the Rock Canyon baseball field. “With baseball it is a little different,” Romero said. “I have been swinging a bat but you need to throw the baseball. It will take a week and a half to go full out with the arm throwing the baseball.”

Evans scholarship winners There were five area caddies among this year’s 13 Evans Scholar recipients from Colorado. All five will receive full-tuition and housing scholarship to attend the University of Colorado. Evans scholarships are awarded to high-achieving caddies with significant financial need.

Gallagos places at state Skyview girl finishes fifth at wrestling tourney BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

S

kyview High School senior Jaslynn Gallegos made history Feb. 23 because as she joined Angel Rios of Valley as the first two girls to place at the state wrestling tournament held Feb. 21-23 at the Pepsi Center in Denver. Girls have been wrestling against boys for several seasons but 2019 marked the first time girls have battled their way to the awards podium. In the final standings, Angel Rios of Valley finished fourth and Gallegos finished fifth in the 106-pound in Class 3A. The two girls did not face each other during the tournament. After she accepted her award Gallegos said “A lot of my uncles wrestled and we used to watch them practice. My older brother was five when he started wrestling,” she

said. “I was about three or so when I started watching him. Wrestling looked like fun so one day I just joined in. It was fun and still is so I have been wrestling ever since.” Gallegos wrestled in the Class 3A 106-pound weight class and so did Rios. In the competition the Skyview senior lost second match in the championship bracket but came back through the consolation bracket to place. She won her first two consolation match then lost in the consolation semifinals but remained in the competition for fifth and sixth. The Skyview senior pinned Trevor Torez of Pagosa Springs to earn the fifthplace medal. She said she enjoyed wrestling and wants to continue to compete in college. She said she has not made a decision about where will go to college. She said one school has offered her a scholarship but she plans to attend the United States Amateur Wrestling Junior Nationals in mid-July in Fargo, N.D. before deciding where she wants to college to attend where she can earn a degree as well as continue her wrestling career.

Hoping to ride their momentum, Horizon will travel to the Denver Coliseum to take on No. 10 seed Ralston Valley (18-6) Feb. 26 at 7 p.m. Lastly, Horizon men’s (16-9, 8-4 in conference) and Legacy ladies’ basketball (13-12, 9-3 in conference) found themselves eliminated after their solid seasons, in the second round. Winning their postseason opener Feb. 20, the Hawks (No. 29) hosted and defeated No. 36 seed Bear Creek, 63-49. A dominant fourth quarter, outscoring BC 24-12 clinched the win for Horizon, who trailed throughout most of the game. Three nights later, Overland (4) trailed the Hawks by three after a quarter, but outscoring the road team the final three quarters, the Trailblazers escaped with the 66-53 win; ending Horizon’s season. The Lady Lighting (25) hosted No. 40 seed Castle View, winning 47-40 behind juniors Ariana Ahadi and Halle Mackiewicz’s 17 and 16 points. Jumping out to a 19-7 firstquarter lead, Legacy never turned back. Unfortunately, three nights later on Feb. 22 at No. 8 Windsor (20-4), the Lady Wizards proved too much for Legacy, running away with a 56-38 victory. Windsor’s 1-2 punch of seniors Hollie Hoffman (22 points) and Karly Mathern (17 points) recorded 70 percent of the group’s points.

Rockies relievers ready for strong bullpen minus Ottavino BY JACK MAGRUDER ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Colorado Rockies will be without the reliever who boasted he could strike out Babe Ruth, but they believe the bridge between their solid starting rotation and premier closer Wade Davis remains sturdy. Colorado is counting on a veteran bullpen group that includes Scott Oberg, Seunghwan Oh, Chris Rusin and Bryan Shaw to step up the way Adam Ottavino did in 2018, when his career year with the Rockies led to a three-year, $27 million free-agent deal with the New York Yankees. “I think we have a lot of good arms and a lot of talented guys back there,” catcher Chris Iannetta said. “I think we can piece it together and be really good. Guys have good years. Guys have bad years. I don’t think anyone expected Adam to have the year that he had last year after the previous year. It happens all the time.” Oberg had a strong second half last season, Oh pitched well after being acquired at the trade deadline and the Rockies are counting on a return to normalcy by Shaw, Rusin, Jake McGee and Mike Dunn. The Rockies’ bullpen had a 4.62 ERA last season, 13th in the league and a number that must be improved upon so as not to squander the quality starts inherited from a rotation that includes Kyle Freeland, German Marquez and Tyler Anderson. Davis had a franchise-record and league- and career-high 43 of the Rockies’ franchise-record 51 saves last

season, his first in Colorado. Ottavino and Oberg served as the primary setup men last year. Ottavino was 6-4 with six saves, a 2.43 ERA and a rate of 13 strikeouts per nine innings, thus the Ruth reference he made after signing with the Yankees. “He was great for us and that’s a tough piece to fill, but we are definitely capable of it,” Davis said. The right-handed Oberg, a top candidate to inherit more of Ottavino’s workload, was 8-1 with 2.45 ERA and was scored upon in only four of his final 34 outings. He had a streak of 11 straight scoreless appearances in August and September as the Rockies moved to a second straight postseason appearance. He limited righty hitters to a .185 batting average. “Collectively, I think we are going to be fine,” Oberg said. “Those are some big shoes, but we have a really talented group down there. There is going to be all eight of us pulling together down there.” Oberg has made a team-high 210 relief appearances since his 2015 debut, but he is not the only workhorse returning. Shaw has appeared in 503 games since 2012, tied for the most in the majors, and he is looking to build on a second half in which he went 1-1 with a 2.84 ERA in 20 appearances after being reinstated from the disabled list July 11. The Rockies hope to return Shaw to the high-leverage role he had in Arizona and Cleveland before his outlier of 2018, when he was 4-6 with a 5.93 ERA. He has a career 3.43 ERA. Shaw, a right-hander, spent time in the offseason at the Driveline Baseball training center in Washington, an outfit that is heavily immersed in biometrics and data analysis, spin rates, effective arm angles and more.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Take time from your busy schedule to check out what’s going on around you. You might find that someone has been secretly trying to pull the wool over those beautiful Sheep’s eyes. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Once again, the Bovine’s boldness pays off in uncovering the source of a disturbing workplace situation. Your personal life calls for patience, as a certain matter plays itself out. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Forget about going all out to impress someone in your personal life. Just being yourself is all that matters. A workplace decision will need more time. Don’t rush into it. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Some supersensitive Crabs might take offense at what they perceive as a slight. But a closer look points to a simple misunderstanding. The weekend holds a welcome surprise. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Sure, you can roar your head off over someone’s failure to keep a promise. But the wiser course would be to ask why it happened. Be prepared for an answer that might well surprise you. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A developing relationship needs time to find its direction. So please be patient and resist pushing things along. A recently cooled-down workplace situation could heat up again.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Congratulations. Your wellthought-out proposal seems to be working. Someone who hasn’t agreed with you on most things in the past could turn out to be one of your major supporters. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Things seem to be going well. However, you can still expect criticism — some of it pretty heavy. But as long as you can back up your position, you’ll be able to rise above it. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Getting together with people who care for you is a great way to get that ego boost you might feel you need at this time. Things start to look brighter by week’s end. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) You should be able to continue with your plans once you get past those temporary delays. Surprise, surprise. An offer to help comes from a most unlikely source. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Prioritizing your tasks is important this week because of all those demands you have to deal with. The pressure eases in time for you to enjoy the weekend. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Save your energy and stay focused on what has to be done, despite all those distractions you’re likely to face. You should see some evidence of real progress by week’s end. BORN THIS WEEK: You are a generous, giving person who is always ready, willing and more than able to help others in need. © 2019 King Features Syndicate
