Nightmare for Rent Landlord-tenant horror story is one for the books … and soap operas By Peter Jones here is not much that Hannah Brill and Justin Greenbaum agree on, but the onetime landlord and tenant are unified in the utter weirdness of their story. “I couldn’t make this up if I tried. This is bad,” Brill said with the kind of ironic bemusement that only comes with 18 months of retrospection. “It’s like a Jerry Springer story,” Greenbaum said, referencing the tabloid talk show host known for showcasing prurient guests and conflicts. “If I was hearing it, I wouldn’t know what to think.” That is where the mutual agreement ends. Hearing former landlord Brill and her former tenant Greenbaum tell their stories is like watching a cheesier version of Rashomon, the acclaimed 1950 Japanese film by Akira Kurosawa that famously depicted very disparate, yet impassioned, firsthand accounts of the same incident. To hear Brill tell it, she was the naïve victim of a con artist who purposefully trashed her multi-million dollar Greenwood Village home. “It’s a nightmare. There was urine on the walls. There was raw sewage. All of the furniture had to be replaced. The kids never used the bathroom,” said Brill, a mortgage broker whose clients have included former Denver Broncos. But according Greenbaum, a self-described bail-enforcement agent, he was Brill’s dupe, an innocent father taken in by a manipulative landholder who was inexplicably bent on invading his privacy and destroying his family. “She was mad that I called police when I found hidden cameras in the house. We were taken advantage of,” he said. “We ended up losing

Greenbaum: ‘I found hidden cameras in the house’
Continued from Page 1 But this is also a drama about the ambiguity of truth and how thirdparty observers to a story must also put faith in their own proverbial guts.
A landlord’s nightmare
After having inadvertently rented another home to a disastrous marijuana-grow operation, Brill and her boyfriend, Chris Lofland, were twice shy about leasing their Greenwood Village house to anyone, but a series of circumstances required it. In November 2012 when the Greenbaums – Justin, his fiancé Cindy Chez and two children – showed up at the door, Brill heaved a huge sigh of relief. It did not hurt that Brill felt a kinship with Greenbaum when she learned that he, like Brill, was Jewish and hailed originally from New York City. What’s more, Greenbaum was wearing a reassuring dark blue security uniform, a gun and a badge. “They seemed like a really nice family. We had good interaction,” Brill said. “Finally, I felt really comfortable. I’m a hard person to convince, but I saw that badge.” Brill even let the Greenbaums move in early without first signing a lease or receiving a deposit or credit report, a decision she would soon regret. “There were a bunch of red flags, but we were in a situation where we were devastated by the other house. He always had an answer and he was fast,” Brill said. “I don’t even know who the references were I talked to. We never knew they were in a hotel they had wrecked, and the credit report I kept asking for never came.” According to Brill, she knew she had been had when Chez, a professional stripper, showed up to her office with another man – his arm around her – who paid the deposit and acted as if he would be the one moving into the house with Chez. “For the first time in my life, I didn’t have anything to say,” Brill said.
After making a quick call to her attorney, Brill says she was told it would be difficult under Colorado law to get the Greenbaums out. Although no lease had been signed, the family had legal possession of the home. The realization came before a rent check for $5,000 bounced from an account that had less than $5, Brill said. She says the house was soon devastated by ants that Brill thinks were attracted to an accumulation of urine and feces – waste that was not necessarily coming from the family’s disallowed cats. “It turned out to be human urine and feces on the carpet,” Brill said. “When I complained, the tenants removed the toilets and stuffed them with jalapenos, cat litter, paper towels and landscaping material. There was raw sewage to our ankles.” Before long, Brill’s attorney began eviction proceedings and the police were investigating. The Greenbaums made counterclaims that Brill had been spying on them with hidden cameras – perhaps to watch the couple have sex. Although Brill says she had indeed used a camera system to monitor her nonverbal autistic son, she insists all cameras were removed when she left the house, leaving only a disconnected recorder installed. The cameras, provided by Greenbaum and confiscated by police, must have been installed by the tenants, themselves, the landlord says “I’d rather watch paint dry,” Brill said. After the Greenbaums left voluntarily in early February 2013, Arapahoe County Human Services took their children on a referral by Greenwood Village police. As for the house damage, Greenbaum and Chez made courtroom plea bargains that resulted in three-year probation sentences for criminal mischief. The couple says they now must submit to regular drug testing and make payments to an insurance fund, among other requirements. Brill says she was left with
hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage and her family was only able to move back into her home in recent months. “This changed us forever,” she said.
A tenant’s rebuttal
Although Greenbaum concurs with much of Brill’s chronology, his interpretation and attribution of blame could not be more in contrast. He stands by his claim that Brill and her boyfriend, Lofland, were spying on his family in an effort to defame their character, in part due to Chez’s occupation. As Chez prepared matzo ball soup for her fiancé in their modest Glendale apartment, the couple recounted their own version of events. “I found cameras in the house,” Greenbaum said. “They said I was a drug dealer and my fiancée was a prostitute. Why? Because we’re from Miami? Because maybe our lifestyle is different? Because we work nights?” Greenbaum and Chez say they were railroaded and are still in the continuing process of appealing the adoption of their two children. “They never did an investigation into child abuse,” Greenbaum insisted. “This whole thing was a setup from the beginning. My son had a habit of pulling off his diaper and running around the house. One day, he ended up pooping on the floor. It happened one time and I haven’t seen my son in two years.” As for the cesspool of garbage and sewage that somehow flooded and destroyed much of the basement, Greenbaum maintains that Lofland was responsible, perhaps as part of a bizarre insurance-related scheme, he surmises. “The very next day after he came to service the pool, all of a sudden there’s a flood in the basement,” Greenbaum said. “That’s when they tried to say we were letting the children live in deplorable conditions. I think Hannah was so mad that I called police because I found the

hidden cameras.” Chez says she knew the couple had been spied on when Brill confronted her about their lease-violating pets. “She said something about ‘We’re watching and we saw your cats,’ and we’re like, ‘Wait a minute, you’re watching?’ Chez said. She says the landlord-tenant relationship was further strained when Brill opted to keep an office in the large house for her own use. “It was right next to the bedrooms. We have a family. Nobody would agree to this. That’s when everything changed,” Chez said. As for the children allegedly living in squalor, the mother is adamant. “My kids were always bathed. They loved baths,” she said. Greenbaum and Chez differ on their recollections of the bounced check written on the account of Greenbaum’s mother. While Greenbaum says he stopped the check, Chez says Brill took the check as a sort of placeholder and agreed not to cash it on the condition that a future payment be made. Whatever the case, no charges were filed against Brill in relation to seized cameras. In comparison, Greenbaum and Chez eventually made a plea deal that resulted in a deferred judgment. In such a case, if the defendant completes his or her probation successfully, all charges would be dismissed and a felony conviction avoided. “We could have taken it to trial, but we were told if we pled guilty we’d get our kids back. The pleas were made more under duress than anything,” Greenbaum said. What’s more, the bail enforcer is now prohibited from carrying a gun. “It makes my job a lot more dangerous, but this is what I do,” he said.
Such situations can also be a difficult to navigate from a legal perspective. That is why the Colorado Legislature carved out particular rights for tenants, says Jacob Eppler, an attorney specializing in landlord-tenant law who has represented both sides in a wide range of cases. Eppler says in many incidents a landlord can be charged with trespassing – criminally and civilly – for entering a rented property without permission. “Shelter is one of those things that’s a very basic human need,” he said. “As you can imagine, there’s a differential in sophistication and power between the landlord and tenant.” Even so, Eppler does not buy the conventional wisdom that possession is nine tenths of the law, even in a situation such as Brill’s. He points to a specific and detailed process in state law that he says can remove problem tenants from properties in a matter of 30 days. “Generally, tenants do not have a valid defense. It’s very rare,” he said. “The only way a tenant can thwart that is if they file bankruptcy.” According to Eppler, even without benefit of a signed lease, a landlord can evict a tenant in such situations because the “lease” effectively becomes month to month, which means it can be ended legally by either party with only seven days notice. Whatever the legal implications, the Brill-Greenbaum debacle is not one that anyone involved in it will soon forget. Linda Greenbaum, Justin’s mother who lived with the couple during part of the fiasco, thinks the story may even be interesting enough for Hollywood. “I have a friend who’s a writer who does a lot of stuff for Lifetime TV. She said when this is done she wants to do a story on it,” the grandmother said. “This really needs to be brought out to the public.” For Brill’s part, she is still in disbelief about the true-life soap opera. “It’s laughable,” she said of Greenbaum’s version of events. “But what’s funny is I bought it. They nailed me, but it was my fault.”
A lease on reality
As strange as the Brill-Greenbaum case may seem, it was not necessarily all that unusual, according to Greenwood Village Police Chief John Jackson. “The facts are the same. The people’s names are different,” he said of the case. “There are always at least three sides to every story. It makes for a very difficult case to investigate.”

The Landmark development announces major changes Rebranding campaign to refresh, renew and reinvigorate
By Tom Barry The Landmark residential and commercial property is shaking things up once again, but this time, it appears these changes will be on the positive side for this multi-million dollar high-end luxury complex in Greenwood Village. The soon-to-be-rebranded Landmark has one of the more colorful pasts in recent metro Denver real estate history. Denver-based EastWest Partners was named the new court-appointed receiver and management firm. Investment groups Neuberger Berman and SVP Global pur-
The current Meridian logo is being changed to reflect the new name, Landmark East. chased the note for the two residential towers and the adjacent retail district last September. The real-estate arm of EW Partners, Slifer, Smith & Frampton, with its reputation for a progressive style and approach, is actively marketing the remaining 95 units in the Meridian tower. The original Landmark residential towers are essentially all sold. Residential marketing expert Brad Arnold now leads the effort as vice president of sales and marketing. His recent claim to fame was his successful retooling and selling of the remaining 86 units of the ritzy Four Seasons condominiums in Denver. That was accomplished in less than one year of working with his colleague Karen Klein, who is now on board with The Landmark team.
The Three R’s
The first Landmark residential tower is sold out.
“Our mission is the three R’s – refresh, renew and reinvigorate,” Arnold said. “Our mission is to take a vision that was already wonderful and already executed and … enhance and bring it back to life, get it back on track” Seeking a fresh approach, EW Partners conducted a consumerresearch study with Landmark business and residential owners, along with Greenwood Villagearea real estate brokers. The new marketing team is now rebranding the residential and commercial components into
one unified name, The Landmark, which encompasses the development’s total 170,000 square feet. “What we heard loud and clear in an overall summary is that this place is already great … and everyone living here really, really loved it,” Arnold said. “The business owners are happy, the residents are happy, the brokers were very pro-The Landmark. There were certain challenges in making sales here that they feel we are addressing, but overall everybody really liked it [and it] was very recognizable. … Everybody knows The Landmark.” The second tower, known as The Meridian, is in the process of changing its name to Landmark East. The first tower will be renamed Landmark West in a unified marketing effort. Only 46 of the 141 residential units at Landmark East have been sold and occupied. Forty-seven of the units are constructed and in the process of being offered for sale. The remaining 48 units are referred to as “white boxes,” meaning they remain unfinished. In a new marketing campaign, the units that are essentially finished will be referred to as Classics. There is still some cosmetic work to do before they are brought to market, Arnold said. “We’ve gone through an extensive design exercise to design new finishes for those, and we are calling those the Signature Residences,” he added.

VisitTheLandmark.com. As part of this considerable
investment, The Landmark’s residential property will undergo other construction upgrades, along with lobby renovations, exterior improvements and general finetuning. “We are redoing the sales office to provide a better experience for our customers,” Arnold said.

KINDLING
By Robert Sweeney
There is so much turmoil going on around the world. Pick a spot and there are few safe places to travel and be secure. No wonder the cruise business is booming. Long-time award-winning photographer Jim Pilon just re-
turned home from a two week tour of Israel, with a Catholic tour group out of Fort Collins and led by a veteran Israel touring priest. According to a brief visit with Jim on the phone, the tourist business is booming in that small country. Although, he mentioned that there are tanks and troops in abundance across the country. He enjoyed the trip and the ancient religious sites where the group held holy masses at actual biblical locations. At one point in time, about three decades ago, Greenwood Village was going to have an exchange of people with some of us going over to Israel and their citizens coming here to Denver. The war broke out and the exchange was canceled. Our most recent travel experience to Portland, Maine, was
great. Loved the East Coast, the fresh sea air, the abundant green forests, and quaint brick homes with very high-pitched roofs to shed the deep winter snows. I was especially impressed with the quality of service found in shops, hotels and restaurants. What didn’t work out well was the trip from Newark back to Denver. The 3 hours and 45 minute flight turned into an 8-hour flight when the pilots didn’t show up for the flight and were delayed on a flight out of Atlanta because of weather. We sat on the plane for more than three hours before we departed for Denver, which was another long flight home. The United captain was angry when he finally arrived and suggested that we complain to the company about the long delay and hot
plane. The heroines of the day were the stewardesses who worked furiously bringing out cold water to the passengers. They went foraging for more water and came back with six-packs for the passengers. Air travel is wonderful, but all of us have horror stories to tell and the situation may continue to worsen, as severe weather seems to be plaguing the airlines. Bad weather is not their fault so we need to have some patience and remember that we might well be walking in their shoes of taking care of customer service issues. Remember that the customer is always right, even if they’re not. That is if you want to keep their business.

Business-focused hopeful gets nod in District 37 Tate defeats Fields in landslide GOP primary
By Peter Jones Entrepreneurial experience resoundingly beat youthful conservatism last week in the Republican primary race in state House District 37. Businessman and mechanical engineer Jack Tate defeated 26-yearold schoolteacher Michael Fields by a landslide of 32 percentage points in the June 24 mail-in ballot. The lopsided victory came despite Fields’s early entry and his endorsements from 37’s incumbent Rep. Spencer Swalm and other heavy hitters. Tate, 46, entered the crowded contest earlier this year and wound up defeating not just Fields, who had been courting party support for more than a year, but two other GOP veterans who had failed to make it out of the Republican assembly. Tate, who lost his run for Centennial City Council last year, believes his emphatic primary win can be attributed to hard work, as well as his campaign’s strong focus on such kitchen-table issues as jobs and the economy. “I had a lot of credibility talking about that, whereas my opponent really doesn’t,” he said. “When I was his age, I already had five years of experience working at a Fortune 100 company. He has a different career trajectory. I think in a few years he’ll be a very exciting person to watch.” Tate’s strong win was a surprise to many who thought Fields’s endorsements from Swalm and former state Senate President John Andrews would go far in a primary dominated by party activists, but in the end his message of education reform and social conservatism took a backseat to more universal pocketbook themes. Fields, who has thrown his support behind Tate, agrees that his former opponent’s resume played a huge role in the race’s outcome – given ongoing and widespread concern about the economy and a belief that business experience is key to addressing such concerns, even if both candidates have their strong suits. “Most of the people I talked to said they liked both of us,” Fields said. “I just think Jack has a little bit more experience. That experience angle really benefited him. I’m encouraged by the support I did get, but Jack ran a really good

campaign.” Tate’s victory came as other mainstream Republicans also beat out more conservative opponents in primary races, most notably former U.S. Rep Bob Beauprez, who defeated second-place gubernatorial finisher Tom Tancredo. Although District 37 is significantly less “purple” than Colorado as a whole, its majority of independent voters are considered the wild card in the Republican-leaning area and those electors are expected to effectively decide the election between Tate and Democrat Nancy Cronk. Although incumbent Swalm narrowly defeated his first Democratic opponent in 2006, redistricting has since increased the Republican numbers. Centennial-based District 37 expanded into unincorporated areas, as well as Foxfield, Dove Valley, Inverness and parts of Greenwood Village and Democratic-leaning Aurora. Although redistricting per the 2010 U.S. Census maintained 37’s Republican majority, the Democratic and unaffiliated numbers have also inched up. Cronk believes GOP voters made
a wise decision in selecting Tate over Fields. “I think the Centennial area is very moderate,” she said. “It’s not the red place it used to be and I think the voters said that. Mr. Tate raised a family here. Those things help in this district. The average voter is older and they appreciate his experience.” For Tate’s part, he considers himself a Republican first, a conservative second. “I think [Fields] did the opposite,” he said. “A political party isn’t necessarily connected to any certain ideology. It’s just a vehicle. The ideology of a party reflects the beliefs of the members at that time.” That is why Tate says his candidacy echoed what he says are the concerns of District 37 voters – the economy, education and effects of the Affordable Care Act. “I just went with what people said was most important [in doorto-door campaign visits],” he said. “If you’re advertising a product and people said, I really like ‘tastes great’ more than ‘less filling,’ you’re going to emphasize the ‘tastes great,’ even though you’re ‘less filling’ too.” In the primary with right-leaning Fields, Tate also stressed his conservative credentials, though even Fields thinks the nominee would be wise to adjust gears in his generalelection contest with left-leaning Cronk. “I think Tate will be comfortable with sticking to the economy and small-business growth,” Fields said. “I think he said conservative five or six times on that last mailer and didn’t really use that earlier.” Fields thinks his former opponent will win by about 10 percentage points if his campaign stays on track with unaffiliated voters. Tate thinks he is well positioned to do just that. “I think I’ve established a basic place where I have pretty broad appeal to independents,” the nominee said. Cronk says she expects to robustly vie for those same unaffiliated voters. “I look forward to vigorous election cycle and an honest and respectful campaign,” she said. “We have to live in this community long after the election’s over and our families do as well.” Election Day is Nov. 4.

Low voter turnout, Tancredo wins Arapahoe
By Tom Barry While June 24 may have been one of the longest days of the year, it proved to be one of the shortest nights in recent history for the staff at the Arapahoe County Election Warehouse in Littleton. Clerk and Recorder Matt Crane had been preparing for the primary for months, as it is a precursor to this November’s general election. The primary had been expected to attract a good number of Republican voters as the state’s gubernatorial race had four candidates vying to defeat Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper. Arapahoe County, which extends into the eastern plains, also had a hotly contested congressional race in the 4th District. Ken Buck handily won the race amongst three competitors with Scott Renfroe placing a second some 10 points behind him. Despite his loss statewide, former 6th District U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo won the four-way race for Republican nominee in Arapahoe County, which constitutes a large part of his former district. The statewide nominee, former U.S. Rep. Bob Beauprez, was a relatively close second behind his fellow former congressman in county results.

County agrees gay-marriage ruling not yet binding Clerk and attorney respond to Utah court decision
By Peter Jones Arapahoe County will not be affected – at least for now – by last week’s federal appeals court ruling in Denver that found Utah’s ban on same-sex marriage unconstitutional. “Arapahoe County agrees with the analysis of the Colorado Attorney General’s Office that, at this time, the ruling was stayed and is not in effect in Colorado,” the county said in a statement. According to a recent press release, the Clerk and Recorder’s Office and County Attorney’s Office have both reviewed the 10th Cir-
cuit Court of Appeals decision that Utah’s same-sex marriage law is in violation of the U.S. Constitution’s guarantee of equal protection and due process. Colorado has a similar ban in place, but the state allows gay couples to enter into civil unions. The Utah case, ruled on June 25, was brought by three couples. Last December, a judge in Salt Lake City ruled for the couples and struck down the state’s ban. In the following days, hundreds of samesex couples in Utah got married until the Supreme Court put the effect of the ruling on hold. Federal courts in several states have struck down bans on gay marriage, but last week’s ruling by the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is considered especially momentous because of
the court’s stature. The Utah Attorney General’s Office is expected to appeal the case to U.S. Supreme Court. Arapahoe County says it will continue to uphold Colorado’s constitutional ban on same-sex marriage and will follow Colorado statute by issuing civil union certificates to same-sex couples. “We will abide by any future court rulings that impact Colorado,” the county said. Any Colorado citizens may apply for a civil-union license and certificate at Arapahoe County Motor Vehicle branch offices in Centennial, Littleton, Aurora and Byers, Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. - 5 p.m. To learn more, visit www. arapahoegov.com or call 303-7954520.
Englewood High School arsonist sentenced Second defendant pleads guilty, third set for arraignment
By Peter Jones One of the three defendants in the vandalism that happened earlier this year at the newly renovated Englewood High School will serve five years of probation, pay restitution and perform community service. Michael Trickel, 23, was sentenced on June 20 after pleading guilty to second-degree burglary, a felony, and second-degree arson with damages under $100, a misdemeanor. He had already served 150 days in the Arapahoe County jail. Trickel was ordered to pay more than $200,000 in restitution to Englewood Schools and perform 1,000 hours of community service that will most likely take place in the city of Englewood.
Michael Trickel He will also have to receive drug, alcohol and mental health treatment and will be subject to random drug tests. District Attorney George Brauchler, who had recommended no additional jail time for Trickel, had harsh words for the defendant after sentencing. “Vandalizing and setting fire to a school is in the same class of outrageous conduct as someone who would steal money from the
Sunday offering plate or set fire to the American flag,” he said. “The reprehensible and offensive actions by these defendants not only impacted Englewood High School, they concerned and angered an entire community.” The arson charge was the result of Trickel setting the U.S. flag on fire during the Jan. 12 incident. Deputy District Attorney Laura Anderson said, “The defendant will begin his path toward reconciling his actions and addressing everyone he hurt on the night of his reckless spree of vandalism.” Co-defendant Chad David Delgadillo, 29, also pleaded guilty to the same charges of second-degree burglary and arson. His sentencing has been set for Aug. 1. The third co-defendant, Anthony Ryan Meany, 26, had his arraignment continued to Aug. 29.
Ex-fiancé convicted in rushhour attempted murder Man had shot driver on I-25 off-ramp
By Peter Jones A jury has convicted a 29-yearold man of trying to murder his ex-fiancé and seriously injuring her on the off-ramp at I-25 and County Line Road during a morning rush hour in 2013. On June 26, the Arapahoe County jury found Christopher Lyle Fields guilty of attempted first-degree murder, as well as retaliation against a victim, violation of his bail conditions, stalking and harassment, all in connection to an incident that occurred on Jan. 9, 2013. According to authorities, the defendant stopped the victim’s car by walking directly in front of it. He shot one round from a semiautomatic handgun into the victim’s windshield and fled on a motorcycle.
Fireworks illegal in Centennial The sale, use or possession of all forms of fireworks is against the law in Centennial. This ban includes retail fireworks stands and the lighting of fireworks that may have been purchased legally outside of the city. Professional fireworks displays conducted by state licensed firework operators are allowed only with proper permits obtained from the appropriate fire protection district. Fireworks are defined very broadly in the Centennial ordinance. It covers all forms of fireworks, including bottle rockets, sparklers and snakes. The fireworks ban will be enforced by the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office, along with local fire and code officials. The penalty for fireworks possession or sale is a maximum of $1,000 for each offense.
Christopher Lyle Fields The bullet fragmented and the victim sustained wounds near her left collarbone, a few inches from her main arteries. Fields then cut off a GPS ankle monitor and sped off with $36,500 in cash, a map with directions to Baja, Mexico and an English-to-Spanish dictionary.
The victim was able to drive a short distance while calling for help. The GPS ankle monitor had been ordered per a previous open case involving stalking the same victim. District Attorney George Brauchler said he had seen few other defendants who had shown such a complete disregard for society’s norms and laws. “The victim endured months of torture at the hands of the defendant, in a self-absorbed effort to match her misery to what he believed to be his own,” Brauchler said. “Justice for this victim is to put the defendant in a cell, where he can dwell on himself, his feelings, and how his selfish preoccupation with both have deprived him of liberty.” Fields had been extradited from New Mexico, where he was apprehended about six hours after the shooting.

Sheriff pays $30K to woman held on immigration detainer
Illegal resident kept in jail after judge ordered her release
By Peter Jones The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office has agreed to pay $30,000 to the American Civil Liberties Union of Colorado and an illegal immigrant from Mexico who in 2012 was held in the county jail on a controversial request from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The settlement was announced last week as the ACLU was preparing to bring a lawsuit in the case of Claudia Valdez, 37, who was arrested for domestic violence and then held for three days on a request from federal immigration officials after a judge ordered her release in the domesticviolence case. “The [county] should be com-

mended for stepping up and doing the right thing,” said Mark Silverstein, legal director for the ACLU of Colorado. “… Within a few weeks of receiving our draft complaint, they promptly agreed to an out-of-court settlement.” Sheriff David Walcher said his office has also joined other sheriffs across the state in ending the practice of holding inmates on ICE detainers. Even so, he characterized the legal settlement as a pragmatic move. “Rather than be sued and probably them winning – and we would be liable for 100 percent of their attorney fees – it was a business decision to do this,” he said. “A lawsuit and all that manpower and work would have been extraordinarily expensive.” The county’s decision follows federal court rulings in other states that a sheriff’s office may violate the Fourth Amendment to
the U.S. Constitution if it holds someone in jail solely on the basis of an immigration detainer, which, unlike warrants, are not a product of judicial review. In July 2012, Valdez called police when a domestic dispute turned physical. Although Valdez made the complaint, sheriff’s deputies arrested her. Later, after Valdez’s husband admitted culpability, a judge ordered her release, though she continued to be held on the ICE detainer request. That was a significant legal mistake, according to Silverstien. “When ICE asks a sheriff to hold a prisoner, the agency is essentially asking the sheriff to make a new arrest and Colorado law just does not provide authority to sheriffs to make that arrest,” he said. The ACLU further said that Valdez’s immigration detainment effectively amounted to her re-
victimization after having called the police for help. “Ms. Valdez’s experience underscores the damage to public safety and community trust that results when victims of crime fear that any contact with law enforcement will be the first step in a seamless transfer to jail and then to immigration proceedings,” ACLU attorney Rebecca Wallace said. Walcher stands by his deputies’ decision to arrest Valdez for domestic violence. “I’ve read the report and our deputies had probable cause to make an arrest,” the sheriff said. “In my opinion, she wasn’t a victim of domestic violence. Our deputies did the right thing in making the arrest. [The husband] had injuries. She had zero injuries.” The District Attorney’s Office eventually dropped all charges in
the case. In April, the ACLU sent a letter to Colorado sheriffs, arguing that they act without legal authority when they use ICE detainer requests as a basis to hold prisoners who would otherwise be released. Since then, more than two dozen sheriffs have announced they would stop honoring detainer requests. The ACLU said it planned to follow up with the sheriffs who have not yet confirmed such a decision. ICE continues to send such requests to Arapahoe County. “ICE will continue to work cooperatively with law enforcement partners throughout Colorado as the agency seeks to enforce its priorities by identifying and removing convicted criminals and others who are public-safety threats,” ICE spokesman Carl Rusnok said in a statement earlier this year.

National Repertory Orchestra a spectacular, musical wonderland By Glory Weisberg
The National Repertory Orchestra drew a Seawell Ballroom full of top local nonprofit supporters. Getting an NRO fellowship is highly coveted, as it helps launch careers of talented young musicians selected from 850 applicants. This year the 88 winners came from 12 countries, now spending the summer in Breckenridge, bringing music to the mountains. Debbie Welle-Powell chaired this gala that was also a celebration of the 10-year marriage of Sharon Magness Blake and Ernie Blake. The couple was wed in a spectacular mountainside ceremony featuring Lee Greenwood, with a reception featuring a massive tent lit with elegant chandeliers. The gala was elegant as well, under dark lavender spotlights, about as romantic as the ballroom ever was and downright eye-popping. Guests at this annual unique benefit get to dance to the full orchestra after bidding live to conduct the orchestra, raising a baton otherwise led for 40-years by maestro, Carl Topilow. Keeping to the theme of the décor, Topilow was in a purple paisley formal jacket, joined by his wife, Shirley and daughter, Emily for the occasion.
Colorado gubernatorial candidate, Bob Beauprez and Angela Lieurance co-conducted one piece that brought laughter and cheers from the animated audience. This annual exercise is worth the price of the gala ticket all by itself. Doug Adams is CEO/COO of the NRO, now in its 55th year. Former Cherry Hills Villager Sonny Wiegand is NRO’s legal counsel, always on the arm of his wife, Pamela Wiegand, resplendent in a hot pink formal jacket and a well placed jeweled brooch. And while noting jewelry, Trice Jewelers owners Ralph and Anne Klomp donated a diamond and white gold necklace featured in the live auction that also included a vacation in Rome, which came with airfare. Also bid was a 10-guest Epicurean catered dinner. Among the guests were Phyllis, Marilyn and Peter Coors, Cynthia and Mike Coffman, Bill and Jean Galloway, Dianne Eddolls and Glenn Jones, Dan Ritchie and Joy Burns, Arlene and Barry Hirschfeld, Lou Wagner, Marv and Judi Wolf, Mort and Edie Marks, Libby Bortz, Janice Ward Parrish, Dick and Jeanne Saunders, David and Bonnie Mandarich, and Stan and Sarah Sena.

Bob Beauprez wins Republican Primary for governor’s race By Scottie Taylor Iverson
What a difference several weeks make! Bob Beauprez is going strong for a stronger Colorado. He was encouraged to run for governor. He was the seventh man in the race. His team and volunteers captured the required number of signatures. Then there were four names on the ballot – Mike Kopp, Scott Gessler, Tom Tancredo and Bob Beauprez – in that order. Having been raised on the family farm in Lafayette, Beauprez knows the value of hard work. He travelled the state garnering support for his Stronger Colorado campaign, sharing a track record of experience and organization while dominating the airways and… on Primary Night was declared the winner. After an exhilarating finish, he answered these questions in an interview. What does a Stronger Colorado mean to you? Colorado deserves better! My vision for Colorado is simple: Making decisions based on participation and built on goodness, decency and empowering people
– creating an environment for opportunity. We do need limited government rather than maximum coercive government and… our rights protected. How do feel about winning the primary? Obviously, Claudia and I were thrilled. A lot of people were excited and there was an outburst of joy. From a field of seven and the last on the ballot -we now have the help and support of Scott, Mike and Tom (former challengers). How did you celebrate? At midnight, Claudia and I realized we hadn’t eaten much food that day so we ordered room service, got a few hours of needed rest and I awoke at 4:45 a.m. for a 5 a.m. interview. Besides being a leader, building a dairy business as well as a community bank, being elected to Congress, writing a book on conservative values and becoming a buffalo rancher - what qualities do you bring to the office of governor? Colorado is so diverse. I have a unique and diverse background. A governor needs to relate to the entire state and I can. I have an understanding of the agricultural as well as urban communities and I’ve been a U.S. representative. I’m comfortable in any meeting hall. What are your efforts focused on now? The audience gets bigger as I am speaking to the general electorates now, but the message is the same. The office takes management skills, and public policy
Primary victor Republican candidate for governor Bob Beauprez gives his acceptance speech surrounded by family and wife Claudia by his side Photo courtesy of The Beauprez Campaign is important. I caught a clip that had Governor Hickenlooper being asked about reduced regulations and he answered the question with more regulations. In my travels when I ask an individual what is holding you back – the answer is government. Can you win against Governor Hickenlooper? Yes! I’m under no illusion that it will be easy. The environment is
right. I feel people are fed up with Hickenlooper and Obama. We’re still waiting after five years for the “recovery.” The White House released information that the first quarter GDP was a minus 2.9 after the third revision of numbers which is a horrible number and evidence that the economic policies of Obama failed us and we deserve better. Is there anything else you’d
like our audience to know? Yes. Colorado will have a great and talented First Lady in Claudia. I married way above my station. How can volunteers and contributors reach the campaign?

Cherokee Ranch & Castle celebrate long-time former resident’s 100 birthday By Valerie LeVier On June 14, Cherokee Ranch & Castle celebrated the 100th birthday of a dynamic woman, Tweet Kimball, who lived in the castle for 45 years. The Waterloo celebration held a themed party that highlighted the era in which the castle was built. Tweet was a mother of two boys, a gracious hostess, philanthropist, conservationist and hard-working ranch owner. More than 225 guests were encouraged to dress in theme and many ladies brought out the best fashions that the ‘20s had to offer. Denver’s Metropolitan Jazz Orchestra played music of the roaring ‘20s. Among the other entertainments were acrobats, aerialists and dance lessons. Dance instructors from Adventures in Dance enjoyed teaching guests the Charleston. Attendees could also enjoy moving freely in and out of the castle as they could partake in guided tours, enjoy hors d’oeuvres or mingle among the crowd. As guests entered the main tent outside the castle, a full buffet of period food that included anything from oysters to smoked salmon were available and prepared by Gourmet Fine Catering. The tent also showcased beautiful clothing from Tweet’s wardrobe, along with special photos and memorabilia. As the evening wrapped up,

Goodwill to open furniture store in Centennial
We first laid eyes on the genius of Dale Chihuly when the Ellie Caulkins Opera House opened. The magnificent chandelier in the foyer was almost hypnotic in its elegance, such a piece of artistic genius. Then we noticed Chihuly in the Cherry Creek North Pismo Gallery location, which was also wonderful. When the Denver Botanic Gardens announced a 14-piece installation of Chihuly glass art we instantly wondered if the Chihuly staff and the artist himself knew about our Rocky Mountain weather that includes hail, lightning, floods, tree-toppling winds and tornadoes. But having withstood other outdoor exhibits, the glass arrived, was placed at 14 spots throughout the gardens, which transformed them all. Forewarned about the exhibit’s popularity, we grabbed a street spot. Knowing that this newspaper had already published photos of the landscape enhancement, we left the “good” camera home. So armed only with cellphone cameras, we were at once struck by the first Chihuly piece, and then amazed again and again as we toured the grounds. So here are some additional photos of the Chihuly exhibit for you to enjoy. This tour is a tourist magnet, so when you host friends and relatives this summer make sure they experience this outdoor wonder amid our romantic “purple mountains majesty” we call home. The Denver Botanic Gardens’ exhibition of Chihuly glass needs more volunteers weekends and evenings to help with the throngs lining up to see it before it leaves in November. Visit www.botanicgardens.org or try 720865-3501 or 720-865-3515.
Goodwill Industries of Denver will open a furniture store Aug. 2 at 8230 S. Colorado Blvd., in Centennial. The 8,330 square foot store, the first of its kind for Goodwill Denver, will feature gently used furniture and home décor such as lamps, rugs and artwork. “The Home Store will allow Goodwill to be an even better steward of its furniture donations,’’ said Stuart Davie, CEO of Goodwill Industries of Denver. “Proceeds from the store will help fund Goodwill’s careerfocused programs for at-risk youth, struggling adults and individuals with disabilities.’’ The Goodwill Home Store will be open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Call Valerie Finholm at 303-2495515.

The Chihuly exhibit at the Denver Botanic Gardens is a must see. The exhibit will be on display until November. Photos by Dave and Glory Weisberg we had to do Boston just for the MIT Night at the Boston Pops, if no other reason because the last piece is “Stars and Stripes Forever.” It gives me chills as the U.S. flag drops from the elegantly sculptured ceiling onto the stage as red and white balloons drop onto reunion goers. Also on the agendas are its lectures giving updates on medical research and educational trends. One speaker regaled the wonder of a totally online college education, reaching the isolated populations of the world and also to women in cultures where attending college is almost impossible. It also serves those unable to afford an on-campus education without financial help. But outside such restrictions, with more than 100,000 students “attending” via laptop, after about 30 minutes into the presentation I had to intervene, especially when the lecturer made a snide comment or two about “the media” and classroom teachers. Being one in the past and still with the other, it was a no

brainer to stand up and stipulate that a strong part of a college education is what you learn out of the classroom, meeting other students from far off places, with different experiences and the cross-germination of ideas placed together. Lonely learners just miss too much, and the best example was right there on the MIT Cambridge campus that is adjacent to Boston University, Harvard and several other colleges. When all had graduation ceremonies that same weekend as MIT’s reunion, it was obvious that this cross-cultural germination can lead to cutting edge concepts and
may well yield to cancer’s insidious march still too often killing its host. One idea building on another makes a pyramid pointing to the advancement of humanity. As several others noted later, following my comments, the speaker did an about-face on his presentation, adding in the value of the on-campus experience. And note here too that Denver’s Auraria campus is an oncampus, multiple college experience affordable to many, bringing together many thousands of students. You can almost feel the energy brewing there.

Big Dry Creek runs through Belleview Park in Englewood, providing relief under the summer sun. Photos by Tom Barry
Belleview Park in Englewood offers something for everyone Popular park is a destination with creek, farm and train
By Tom Barry Englewood’s Belleview Park is a gem of the metro area. The Big Dry Creek provides an area for families with children to wade in the water and cool down during hot summer days. The popular park offers a plethora of recreational options for residents of Englewood and surrounding communities. Visitors come from as far as Castle Rock, Brighton and beyond. Much of the park is blanketed in green grass and mature trees and other vegetation. The location is easy to find on the north side of Belleview Avenue and Inca Street, between Broadway and Santa Fe Drive. The 36-acre oasis in the city was designed and constructed in 1966 by Englewood’s first Park and Recreation Director Earnest “Packy” Romans, who constructed each park in the city with a theme in mind. Approximately 218,000 distinct patrons visit Belleview Park each year. Big Dry Creek runs through the park relatively quickly and provides a haven under the hot summer sun. Caution is advised, as the rocks are slippery due to an accumulation of moss over time. This park has a winding walk and bike path that traverses the expansive grounds. A dog park provides pet owners a place for their dogs to run and mix with other dogs. The popular and well-maintained playground is blanketed with sand to cushion the ground from falls. Belleview Park is adjacent Pirates Cove water park, a massive draw for families. This distinctive park features a bright red train, which runs on tracks in the southwest quadrant of the area.
The train, operated by Lions Club for 30 years, carries around 60,000 passengers every year. The tab for the ticket is $1.75 per person. The opening of the train was delayed until this last week due to repairs. The train now runs Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. until Labor Day. On Sundays, the train operates 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. Another hit among children, parents and grandparents is the Children’s Farm next to the small bright red train station with animals inside and outside. It is slated to open this week and has the same hours as the train. “Come on down to the farm for a little bit of yesteryear,” a promotional announcement says. “Enjoy getting to know some farm animals. Our barnyard will host pigs, goats, chickens and sheep just to name a few. The farm also features Buttercup, a lifesize fiberglass milking cow. Try and see if you know how to milk our cow and experience how people used to get their milk down on the farm!”

Their assistance doesn’t just stop with the soldier they have extended it to the families and their caregivers.

Fifteen-year-old Stephen Walton is in it to win it. He is not letting his disability get in the way of his success this year at the Arapahoe County Fair, July 24-27. Walton was diagnosed with mild cerebral palsy at age 2. He is a little behind his peers developmentally and intellectually. He can speak clearly sometimes, but still attends speech therapy. His physical strength, while getting stronger all the time, is probably not at the same level as his peers. His balance will be an issue for the rest of his life. It is not easy being 15 for any teen and Walton has some added struggles in life. But he is not letting any of that get in the way of his success. This is Walton’s 10th year participating in CSU-Extension’s 4-H program. He is entering a tie-dyed T-shirt for Decorate Your Duds, a handmade wooden car and glitter globe for Expressive Arts projects and three mouthwatering baked creations: biscuits, coffeecake and a chocolate butter cake. Walton’s mother and 4-H Secretary, Jean, is certain 4-H has improved not only Walton’s
Stephen Walton technical skills, but also confidence over the years. “He really feels like he is a part of the group and loves being included,” she said. 4-H is a youth-development program that brings together members, ages 5-18, to learn life skills, build friendships and have fun. Arapahoe County 4-H clubs rely on the help of caring volunteers who guide hands-on learning in 64 project areas. As much as Walton has

benefited from 4-H, his peers continue to learn from him too, said CSU-Extension Director Tim Aston. “Kids who otherwise may not have met someone with special needs are getting to know the person behind the disability by getting to know Stephen,” Aston said. “They are learning compassion, acceptance, inclusion and they can have the opportunity to mentor him.” Many of the Livestock 4-H members will also participate in the Youth Livestock Auction, July 26. This year, there are 285 4-H members throughout Arapahoe County. Next year, we anticipate that number to grow. “At the Arapahoe County Fair, we are proud to present the work of all our 4-H members involved in Open Class and 4-H projects,” County Commissioner Rod Bockenfeld said. Enrollment for the 2014/2015 4-H program begins in October. Parents who are interested in finding out more about 4-H for their kids can do one of several things: • Call the 4-H office at CSUExtension at 303-730-1920. • Go online and fill out a form: wwwarapahoe.wufoo.com/forms • Fill out a 4-H inquiry card available at the 4-H information table during the fair.

South Metro Denver Chamber taps new CEO Golden ran Colorado Association of Realtors
By Peter Jones A former leader of the Colorado Association of Realtors has taken the helm at the South Metro Denver Chamber. Robert Golden, a veteran executive with Colorado’s statewide association of member real estate professionals, started work last week as the organization’s CEO, leading one of the state’s largest regional chambers of commerce and serving more than 1,000 business members in four counties. “I was quite particular about any organizations that I wanted to get involved with. So I did my research. It was just kind of meant to be,” Golden said. “Running a chamber is different and a
little unique, but I have that background and I’m excited to engage in a new type of association representing all types of businesses.” Herm Brocksmith, chairman of the chamber’s board of directors, did not return a call seeking comment, but issued a statement in a June 25 press release. “Bob has a proven track record of collaboration and stellar achievement. We expect the South Metro Denver Chamber to thrive, grow and achieve its potential under his leadership. With Bob’s tremendous work ethic, influential contacts and business savvy, we are poised for great success,” said Brocksmith, president of the Kuni Honda dealership in Centennial. Golden, 58, replaces John Brackney, the chamber’s longtime CEO who unexpectedly resigned in March and has since
SYNERGY HomeCare in Littleton announces SYNERGY HomeCare University
Synergy HomeCare, a South Metro Chamber member who has newly relocated to Littleton, held a ribbon cutting to promote the creation of a new Caregiver Training Lab within the SYNERGY HomeCare University at the center. The event was held at their downtown Littleton location at 5721 S. Spotswood, was attended by 30 chamber members and guests. It featured a welcome by Littleton Mayor Phil Cernanec. Tom Yetzer, owner/operator of Synergy HomeCare of Denver, also expressed his thanks to attendees and welcomed them to the facility. The HomeCare University facility was opened in late 2013 to provide an opportunity to create handson training for all Colorado-based Synergy HomeCare caregivers. The innovative new Caregiver Training Lab provides eight hours of training focused on memory care for patients with Alzheimer’s or dementia. The university is unique to the nonmedical homecare industry because it allows the company to provide a lab environment to consistently train
and assess personal care skills. They define personal care skills as ADLS or Activities of Daily Living, which include bathing, dressing, moving and other typical daily activities. SYNERGY HomeCare of Denver is a caregiver agency and solution provider that has been serving the Denver Metro area since 2006. They offer senior home assistance, home care support, and in-home companionship services in Denver, Littleton, Aurora and surrounding areas.

taken a job with Webolutions, an Internet-driven marketing agency and chamber member based in Greenwood Village. Like the chamber’s large association of businesses, the similarly nonprofit Colorado Association of Realtors is a professional member-based organization with a political appetite. Under Golden’s leadership, in recent years the organization of 20,000 Realtors reworked its focus. “We did a complete redesign of the governmental legislative division,” he said. “We developed new PACs, kind of redesigning what the association’s focus would be, putting it more towards representing private-property rights and the rights of buyers and sellers.” After leaving the Realtors association in 2012, Golden, a Highlands Ranch resident, founded
Golden Solution, a Denver-based trade-association consulting firm. Golden was an executive the state Realtor associations of Colorado, Vermont and Florida for a total of 18 years. Golden, whose position answers directly to the board of directors, says he looks forward to collaborating with the local business and political communities. “This chamber has a good representation of the community,” he said. “It does a lot of good things and my goal is to keep that going and see where we need to go, what are some new directions, some new things we might want to consider that benefit the investor members because that’s really what it’s all about.” Golden received his bachelor’s degree in business from Florida Atlantic University.

Stern. As of this date, 17 affordable independent living apartments are still available out of a total of 112. The majority of the project is market rate and also includes assisted living and memory care units. Robert A.M. Stern designed buildings are currently among the most expensive in New York City breaking all barriers in sales per square foot category. His most recent condo, 15 Central Park West, is selling for around $7,500 per square foot with the penthouse condo recently listed for a record breaking $95,000,000 according the New York Post. Billionaire Larry Silverstein, the owner of the Word Trade Center Twin Towers lost in 9/11, just announced a new Four Seasons Residences condominium in NYC designed by Stern, with apartment prices ranging from $2.6 million to more than $60 million each. Balfour Senior Living founder Michael Schonbrun, a graduate of Yale who studied architecture there and a native of New York City himself, reached out to Robert Stern for help in designing something classic and stately for the coveted site on the corner of 15th and Little Raven Street across from Commons Park in downtown Denver and diagonally from the Museum of Contemporary Art. “I felt that Robert Stern, who is known for recollective interpretations of classic design, was just what Denver deserved,” adding that the Moffat Depot, being restored on the site, itself was a 1906 “modern” interpretation of classic Greek architecture. “Stern spent a lot of time personally in meetings with us to help rethink senior housing which had its roots in nursing home and apartment building design.” This will be Stern’s first building in Denver. These apartment homes have one bedroom and two floor plans featuring full kitchens with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, full size washer/dryer units, and walk in closets. The bathrooms have hand laid tile, Carrera marble vanities and frameless glass shower doors. In addition to these luxury residential units, each resident will have access to the extensive amenities and services offered at Balfour. To qualify for an affordable apartment home, applicants must earn between 50 percent and 100 percent of the area’s median income, complete an Income Verification Form and pay a security deposit upon reservation. “We’re proud to partner with the City and County of Denver in offering affordable senior living housing options in a premier location and with our signature Balfour services,” said Michael K. Schonbrun, Balfour’s founder. “All of our residents will enjoy numerous amenities including fine restaurant dining, beauty salon, a rooftop bar, housekeeping services, concierge services, pool, spa, fitness center and continuous activities and excursions.” Balfour at Riverfront Park provides seniors elegant urban surroundings, the amenities of a fine resort, and an extensive list of educational, fitness, and social programming.
