Book ban fans burn through the facts and reality in a dangerous culture war against kids

N

onsense about sex is nearly as old as sex itself, and recent anguish over materials about sexuality in local schools highlights that.

Cherry Creek schools in Aurora have become the latest focus of hysterical culture-warriors determined to ignore reality, science and common sense about human sexuality, even at the expense of innocent kids.

The Cherry Creek school board was ground zero this week when about 50 activists descended on a school board meeting to warn of the hellfire and damnation being unleashed because school libraries were circulating pornography to young children as part of a clandestine conspiracy to make kids gay.

For the record, they are not.

Cherry Creek teachers, like those across the country, are openly and vocally trying to get your kids to just pay attention in class and do their damn homework.

Still, armed with fear and the lack of facts, groups like Moms for Liberty, Libs of TikTok and, locally, the Colorado Parent Advocacy Network and Turning Point USA, are torching up the school meetings and ready to start torching up some books.

The groups are pushing to ban a growing list of books dealing not just with human sexuality, but LGBTQ and gender literature especially.

Members of these groups say they’re not homophobes, they just think books about gay and gender identity or insecurity are the same thing as pornography.

Clearly, for many Americans, it’s bad enough the Supreme Court came right out and acknowledged not only that LGBTQ people exist, but justices even ruled that those Americans have the right to be that way, and even marry others like them.

Now, much to the dismay of many, adolescents have mustered the audacity to seek out information about gender identity and sexuality.

To get attention and support, these unhappy critics tell outright lies, for instance, that sexuality materials intended for young adults are being handed out to little kids.

Some of these critics clench their fists and jaws and insist that local high schools are perverting the masses by allowing teenagers, about to legally become adults, to read books about others who’ve questioned their own sexuality or even the meaning of their own gender.

Several lifetimes ago, I was a social worker. Fresh out of college, I worked for a teen pregnancy program in Denver’s Five Points and taught sex education in Denver Public Schools.

I was the one who got one hell of an education back then.

I would fill a bag with diaphragms, IUDs and plastic internal and external organs and set out each week to schools to teach

kids about human sexuality.

Invariably, after explaining to kids the basic biology of human sexuality and how humans become pregnant, any number of kids would either ask sensitive questions during group discussions or linger after to get the answers they were looking for. They had lots of misinformation and were always looking for real answers.

Let me tell you this, no matter how frankly and frequently you discuss human sexuality with your kids, just about every one of them has unanswered questions. Too many of them don’t have a clue.

Oh, they know about the mechanics of sex. Since Americans are exposed to the media about 10 hours a day by age 8, they have sexuality right in front of their faces almost constantly.

It’s not very informative.

I regularly heard that douching with carbonated beverages, especially Pepsi, just after sexual intercourse was an effective form of birth control I regularly heard that it was impossible for a girl to get pregnant the first time she had intercourse.

I regularly heard that masturbation caused everything from blindness, to warts, to homosexuality, to thick ankles, to kidney stones, to life in hell.

I regularly heard that humans can get or give sexually transmitted diseases only if they have sexual intercourse, not oral sex.

I heard it all. But afterward, I would often hear kids who were scared. Many were afraid they were pregnant, afraid their partners were pregnant, afraid people would find out they were gay, afraid they had a sexually transmitted disease, or afraid their parents would find out what they were doing.

It was a lot of fear.

Kids unclear or uncomfortable about their sexuality need resources for support that help them understand homosexuality is not a defect, not a disease, not a crime and not a shame, regardless of what their parents, peers or religious contacts say. Anything less can cause a lifetime of mental anguish and even suicide.

That’s not a value judgment. It’s science.

More kids than you could ever imagine don’t have the temerity, the luxury or or the drive to seek out a responsible and helpful adult for accurate information, maybe even a kid you know.

They can turn to the internet, each other, or maybe a library book, but only if it’s there for them.

‘Strong mayor’ quagmire still begs investigation

A

s has been the case during the entire debacle of Mayor Mike Coffman’s ill-conceived “strong mayor” scheme, the stories told by those involved belie transparency, reason and integrity.

The sordid tale began this spring when, seemingly out of nowhere, “citizen initiative” petitions began circulating in Aurora, seeking to ask voters this fall to increase term limits for city lawmakers.

After weeks of investigation by reporters at the Sentinel and 9News, it turned out the mysterious petition drive didn’t come out of nowhere. It came out of Coffman’s bank account and surreptitious plotting.

Coffman, a Republican, ponied up $10,000 of his own money for the scheme and won about $100,000 from a dark-money group, favored by Republican interests, according to city and state records.

Within days of the petition drive being launched by a Colorado Springs company beholden to Republican stalwarts and interests, it became clear the “citizen initiative” was an inside partisan effort, not to change city council term limits, but to entirely restructure Aurora’s government.

The measure was immediately championed by Colorado Springs Republican interests.

Although the summary was, as mandated by law, supposed to honestly reflect the proposal hawked at grocery stores, and illegally at post offices, it didn’t. What the petitions tried to conceal was a measure that would not only rewrite Aurora’s generations-long style of government, creating a unilaterally powerful mayor, it would guarantee that Coffman could snag that job next year.

Rightfully so, lawmakers from both political parties on city council, and across the region, said it was an outlandish and unethical power grab

by Coffman. Once the details of the stealthy scheme were made public, Coffman continued to refuse to discuss his involvement in the plot and explain to voters why he pretended the scheme was the will of the people, and not the will of himself.

City clerk officials dubiously gave the measure a green light in August, saying the proposal, needing more than 12,000 valid signatures, would squeak onto the ballot by about 181.

Finally, in a 9News interview with reporter Marshall Zelinger, Coffman awkwardly admitted to creating and helping fund the racket, giving no logical or defensible reason for his actions. As the scheme collapsed under encroaching deadlines and a looming court challenge by a growing field of critics, disturbing questions and details surfaced as well.

Despite repeated requests, city officials have yet to satisfactorily explain how the city clerk’s office could ethically be required to take part in creating parts of the petition, and then be the city’s own arbiter of protests by citizens filing complaints about how the petition and measure was created and handled.

It came as little surprise, or comfort, to open-government activists, that the city clerk ruled in her own favor on several questions of clarity and intent about the measure. More disturbing was new information revealed by the Sentinel that not only was this never an actual “citizen initiative,” but a city attorney was directed at one point to review the measure created by Coffman and his lawyer, give advice on the measure’s structure and content, and send comments back to them.

Not only did this free legal advice service get provided to Coffman and his lawyer, no one else on the city council was apparently aware of it, and the city attorney never made his office’s involvement public — even as they had a hand in adjudicating citizen complaints about the form and structure of the measure.

At best, the ruse illustrates a sloppy legal club that plays too loosely with mandates of transparency, accountability and is prone to bad political judgment. But the stunt also reveals a serious problem where secrets are kept under the guise of “attorney-client privilege” obfuscating facts and undermining honesty and due process, entrusted to city officials.

There’s no doubt that the vast majority of Aurora political leaders and apprised voters just want this farce to go away, just like it did. And given the political quagmire this ploy has become, there’s little doubt Coffman and others involved in the scheme want it to fade away now, especially on the eve of a mayoral election. But city lawmakers would only add to the injuries inflicted by the scam to just walk away from it, especially knowing the clandestine and undisclosed involvement of the city attorney’s office.

At the very least, city lawmakers should create an independent commission to investigate how the measure was ever allowed to begin the petition process and which city employees were involved in creating and perpetuating the measure.

Clearly, city regulations, and possibly the city charter, need reforms to prevent not just slipshod caretaking of the rights of resident voters and protection from future scams, but to ensure city government is free from political machinations the government is designed to prevent.

JOE GUZZARDI, CONTRIBUTING COLUMNIST

The other side of Feinstein’s image

D

uring much of Dianne Feinstein’s 20 years in the U.S. Senate, I lived in California and wrote political commentary for two San Joaquin Valley dailies. Regardless of my topic, out of professional curiosity, I asked my subjects’ off-the-record opinion about the California governor and their local congressional representatives.

When I inquired about Feinstein, most replied with indifference. At no point did I sense voter enthusiasm about Feinstein, or detect the feeling that, in their minds, her re-election was paramount to California’s well-being.

Yet, after Republican Sen. Pete Wilson resigned in 1991 to run for governor, Feinstein won the 1992 special election, and was then re-elected five times – 1994, 2000, 2006, 2012 and 2018, a remarkable achievement.

Prior to her Senate success, Feinstein came in third in the 1975 San Francisco mayoral election to winner George Moscone, and lost the 1990 gubernatorial general election to Wilson. As so often happens in politics, death, retirement and shifting winds played a major role in Feinstein’s ascendancy.

Elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1969, Feinstein served as the board’s president in 1978, during which time Mayor George Moscone and City Supervisor Harvey Milk were assassinated. Feinstein succeeded Moscone as mayor, and Wilson’s decision to give up his Senate seat opened up national office opportunities for Feinstein which she capitalized on.

When fellow Democrat Alan Cranston retired in 1993, Feinstein became California’s senior senator.

Once an established incumbent, and even though California was not yet the solidly blue state it is today – Republican Wilson was, after all, just a few years removed from his governorship – Feinstein coasted. Feinstein’s uninspiring GOP challengers Tom Campbell, Dick Mountjoy and Elizabeth Emken eased her path.

As Feinstein’s Senate seniority advanced, she got plum assignments, including with the Senate Rules Committee. Feinstein also chaired the Select Committee on Intelligence, an ironic appointment since, as later discovered, she was chauffeured by a Chinese operative the FBI suspected of gathering government secrets before he absconded back to China.

Considered a moderate when she arrived in Washington, Feinstein quickly adopted the established Democratic positions, especially on an issue that roiled Congress from her career’s inception to its end: immigration.

In the early 1990s, at a press conference on the California-Mexico border, Feinstein said that illegal immigration was too costly to allow it to continue. In California alone, Feinstein continued, taxpayers spent $2

billion annually on illegal immigration. Feinstein added that illegal immigration involved a battle for “space” between the aliens and citizens – space for jobs, for classroom seats and for housing. More immigration means less space for citizens, said Feinstein.

Thirty years later, however, Feinstein joined the Senate’s open borders faction. Over her three decades in the Upper Chamber, Feinstein’s immigration grade dropped from C to D. Unbeknownst to the public, Feinstein also championed private immigration bills. She introduced more bills that protected illegal immigrants from deportation than any other legislator. Her singular attempts to circumvent immigration laws to provide for her special causes mostly involved tourist visa overstays. Some remained unlawfully present for as long as 17 years after their visas expired, hardly compelling circumstances that require Senate intervention.

On October 2, Gov. Gavin Newsom named EMILY’s List President Laphonza Butler to fill the remaining 15 months of Feinstein’s term. EMILY’s List works to elect female Democrats who support abortion rights. Per an August Federal Election Commission filing, Butler was a Maryland resident. Butler was then quickly sworn into office by Vice President Kamala Harris, for whom Butler had worked on Harris’ failed 2020 presidential campaign.

Despite California’s whopping $32 billion budget deficit, its affordable housing crisis, a soaring homeless population, endemic smash-and-grab crime and a collapsed education system, whoever permanently replaces Feinstein will vote straight “yea” on immigration expansion bills – as if more immigration is the solution to California’s monumental problems.

Feinstein is gone, but her age, 90, and her vast $64 million wealth, exclusive of prime real estate holdings, raise questions about imposing term limits, and whether millionaires married to billionaires can fairly represent the average citizen. Feinstein commuted from San Francisco to D.C. on her private $6 million Gulfstream G650 jet. Term limits and personal wealth should but will never be considered as candidacy restrictions.

Still, Feinstein’s congressional pro-immigration allies can take comfort that her replacement will carry on with the departed senator’s sovereignty-eroding immigration expansion legacy.

PARENTS TURN OUT IN FORCE TO CLASH AND SUPPORT CHERRY CREEK IN SHADOW OF ALLEGATIONS OF LIBRARY ‘PORN’

H

undreds of people turned out Monday to a Cherry Creek School board meeting, insisting that critics of controversial library materials are spreading misinformation about books associated with sexuality.

“When we start letting parents walk into our libraries to pull books off the shelf and then declare them as pornographic or unacceptable in some way, then we no longer have intellectual freedom in schools,” parent Heidi Parish told school board members and the audience.

Of the 200-300 people estimated at the school board meeting, held at Prairie Middle School, the vast majority came to support the school district’s policies regarding potentially sensitive materials in public school libraries.

The turnout was in response to recent criticism from local and national activists protesting what they say are inappropriate and even pornographic books in school libraries. The criticism has focused almost exclusively on materials broaching the subject of LGBTQ sexuality.

Lori Gimelshteyn, executive director of Colorado Parent Advocacy Network, said that her organization has not done anything that was anti-LGBTQ and that they support all students. She also questioned why it was considered hateful to the LGBTQ community to protect them from porn.

On Oct. 9, however, most parents stood behind school district officials in saying that allegations by Gimelshteyn and other critics are false, and that her group and others are spreading politicized misinformation about not just the materials, but who in schools has access to them.

The public battle comes just weeks after Superintendent Chris Smith told families that school employees received hundreds of emails, phone calls and voice messages from parents who had been misled and misinformed by activists about sexually explicit books in elementary school libraries. The controversy eventually led to a bomb threat which was eventually discredited. The Arapahoe Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate the case.

The threat to Cherry Creek came after Libs of Tiktok, which the Anti-Defamation League defines as “a popular

anti-LGBTQ” social media account, published a blog post encouraging their followers to contact Cherry Creek about the alleged sexually explicit books. CPAN made a Facebook post echoing Libs of TikTok’s sentiments.

This week, CPAN and Turning Point USA rallied on local social media and encouraged community members to turn out to the Cherry Creek school board meeting Monday.

The Anti-Defamation League describes Turning Point as a conservative nonprofit group, whose founder promotes Christian nationalism, and the group attracts white nationalists.

CPAN is a statewide organization that advocates for “rigorous, non-political, safe and fulfilling educational experience for all students.” The group, however, has collaborated with conservative organizations such as Libs of TikTok, an organization that encouraged people to contact Cherry Creek about sexually explicit books.

Outside of the school where the school board meeting was held, a few dozen supporters of CPAN, Turning Point and Colorado Log Cabin Republicans — representing politically conservative gay and lesbian voters — gathered in front of a pickup truck where an American flag sat in the truck bed.

Many dozens more stood on the sidewalk in front of the school carrying rainbow umbrellas and signs that read, “just one accepting adult can save a queer person’s life… protect trans kids” and “protect queer kids.”

Much of the controversy surrounds books focusing on sexual orientation and gender, some popular among adolescents.

Critics have labeled some of the materials as pornographic, which local school officials, national experts in library sciences and a variety of schools of academics staunchly deny.

Drew Paterson erroneously claimed the memoir “Gender Queer,” written and illustrated by Maia Kobabe, depicts a child performing oral sex on an adult.

The book is a “graphic novel,” using drawn caricatures in the style of a comic book. While Kobabe does include a scene addressing oral sex, it is between two consenting

adults, depicting inanimate objects, not genitalia.

Critics of the organization calling out the materials say the activist groups not only spread disinformation about the character, content and locations of the books, but are anti-LGBTQ in their tactics.

Gimelshteyn said that the book “All Boys Aren’t Blue”

by George M. Johnson, which critics claim is sexually explicit, was available in elementary schools.

The Sentinel has previously reported that the school district does not carry Kobabe’s or Johnson’s book in local elementary schools. They are, however, available in some middle school and high school libraries, which carry a variety of books about biology, psychology, human sexuality and development.

Despite the critics’ allegations, the majority of people who turned out for the meeting expressed support for district leaders, teachers, inclusion in school library books and the LGBTQ community.

Chad Brown, a parent and teacher at Prairie Middle School, praised the school’s policies on diversity and inclusion.

“As we have moved forward as a country, and now as a community at (Cherry Creek), there are those against these values. They are against the celebration of differences,” he said.

One speaker recalled recent news about a California woman killed for flying a pride flag, and that she was told to take hers down. She did not say who made the demand.

She also said a recent attack at the Douglas County Pride event was traumatic, and the “hateful group showing up at board meetings is terrifying.”

“Superintendent Smith, please continue your hard line against hate,” she said. “There is no middle ground here.

Our children’s lives are at stake.”

With elections on the horizon, and ballots scheduled to be sent out to voters next week, many also expressed support for Director Anne Egan and Angela Garland, who are running for re-election. They are competing against challengers Steve McKenna and Scott Graves respectively.

Director Janice McDonald reached term limits. Ruthie Knowles is the sole candidate to fill the vacant seat.

Aurora officials defend city attorney’s role in ‘strong-mayor’ proposal

Honest Journalism #NoPayWallHere

sentinelcolorado.com

Representatives of the City of Aurora say a deputy city attorney acted within city policy when he made suggestions on a draft version of a ballot question asking voters to empower the city’s mayor.

The campaign to give the mayor the power to veto Aurora City Council legislation as well as hiring and firing powers that currently belong to the city manager stalled in August, with supporters saying they overshot a procedural deadline.

It was sponsored — behind the scenes, at first, and later openly — by incumbent Mayor Mike Coffman and opposed by the majority of council members, some of whom characterized the proposal as a power grab by Coffman.

The city’s impartiality and involvement with the campaign to empower the mayor came under scrutiny earlier this year, when opponents and council members questioned the clerk’s office and city attorney’s office’s creation of a summary that would have appeared on the ballot, which some called misleading.

The clerk, city attorney and outside legal counsel hired by the city were also responsible for ruling on a legal challenge by opponents, who said the petitions generated by

the clerk and city attorney for the strong-mayor campaign to collect voter signatures were out of compliance with city law. The challenge was struck down by the clerk, drawing even further criticism from the measure’s opponents.

Emails obtained through a Colorado Open Records Act request show that, the day after a draft of the legislation was submitted to the city by legal staff working for the strong-mayor campaign — May 3, 2023 — deputy city attorney Jack Bajorek made various notes about the formatting and content of the proposed legislation.

Bajorek questioned elements of the proposal, including the creation of a “chief of staff” position who could take over if the mayorship became vacant, even if they weren’t a registered elector, as well as the stipulation that the mayor would be able to appoint a director of finance without specifying whether they could appoint other department directors.

City spokesman Ryan Luby said the City Attorney’s Office is able to provide “limited guidance to any citizen-initiated ballot proposal sponsor as to form, not policy.”

“The policies of the proposal were left to the proponents to decide,” Luby said. “It is well established in the city charter that the City Attorney’s Office is to provide legal counsel to city employees in their official capacities and on city processes they oversee and guide. ›› See METRO, 7

OCTOBER 12, 2023 | SENTINELCOLORADO.COM | 7

METRO

›› METRO, from 6

In this instance, the City Clerk’s Office, and by extension the City Attorney’s Office, was tasked with providing limited formatting guidance.”

Bajorek emailed his comments to an attorney representing the strong-mayor campaign, Suzanne Taheri, copying City Clerk, Kadee Rodriguez.

City attorneys are called on to represent diverse and sometimes competing interests in the course of their jobs, from the citizenry, to individual officials accused of misconduct, to the city government of Aurora itself.

Still, former Aurora city attorney and Aurora City Councilmember Charlie Richardson, who also spearheaded the opposition to the strong mayor campaign, said even comments by Bajorek such as suggested corrections to grammar and capitalization were outside of the scope of the Aurora City Attorney’s Office’s responsibilities.

“There should be absolutely no coordination except for the bare essentials of what the code requires,” he said. “The only thing that a city attorney’s office should do is point out the relevant charter provisions and code provisions and not have any interaction with the proponents.”

Supporters of the strong-mayor proposal have said they plan to resume the campaign in 2025, although it is not clear whether a mechanism exists for them to do so without starting over and again gathering a minimum number of signatures from registered voters.

Aurora investigators mostly clear cops involved in shooting Jor’Dell Richardson Three Aurora police officers involved in the June pursuit and shooting of Jor’Dell Richardson, 14, have been mostly cleared of wrongdoing by internal affairs investigators, whose decision was made public Tuesday.

Aurora Police Department investigators accepted the account of officer Roch Gruszeczka, who said Richardson reached for a pellet gun resembling a pistol after being tackled by police. Gruszeczka fired the single shot that killed Richardson.

Gruszeczka was investigated for violations of the department’s policies concerning the use of deadly force and conformance to law, and was ultimately found not to have violated those policies.

“You yelled ‘gun’ and ordered the suspect to drop the gun and warned the suspect that you would shoot him if he did not, which he did not,” investigators’ summary of findings with respect to Gruszeczka states.

Officer James Snapp, who tackled Richardson as the teen was running away after allegedly taking part in an armed robbery, was also found not to have violated policies related to the use of physical force and con-

formance to law.

However, investigators found that he did violate the department’s policy on conduct unbecoming when he yelled “get on the ground, you f–king idiot” at Richardson.

Sgt. Stephenson Cary, who initially spotted Richardson and his acquaintances outside of the convenience store that they allegedly robbed of vape products, was found not to have violated the department’s policies concerning the use of vehicles, but he did allegedly violate the body-worn camera policy because he did not turn his camera on when he spotted the group.

The findings by investigators were released about a month after 18th Judicial District Attorney John Kellner announced he would not be charging Gruszeczka or Snapp for their roles in Richardson’s death.

Critics have pushed back on the police narrative, saying that officers used unnecessary force in tackling Richardson and then wrongly continued to escalate the confrontation as the boy was subdued. Activists, friends and family members of Richardson said the shooting has intensified police mistrust among the local Black community.

“I’m scared every day for my sons. Every day. And I sit here and get them prepared for how you guys act,” said Paige Owens, the mother of one of Richardson’s friends. Her comments came during a recent town-hall style meeting about racial equity. “That baby was on the ground pleading for himself.”

Interim police chief Art Acevedo said in a statement released along with the department’s findings Tuesday that APD had “a legal and moral obligation to base our findings on the evidence, the facts, and the law.”

“That is what we did in this matter,” he said.

“While we cannot change what has occurred, we will continue to work and expand our efforts in the upcoming weeks and months with a myriad of community and government stakeholders to do all that is humanly possible to create an environment that will enhance the safety and opportunities for youth throughout Aurora and our region” Acevedo said in a statement. “We will also continue our efforts to identify all the individuals involved in the robbery leading up to this incident.”

The 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office’s decision not to charge Gruszeczka or Snapp and the two officers’ continued employment by APD have fueled protests against the two agencies, with activists comparing Richardson’s death to the officer-involved deaths of other Black youths, including Elijah McClain.

Siddhartha Rathod, an attorney representing the Richardson family, previously said the family plans to bring a civil lawsuit against the police department and Gruszeczka. On Tuesday, when reached for comment, he mentioned the settlements paid by the city to other clients of his firm.

“The Aurora Police Department exonerated its officers in the murders of Naeschylus Carter-Vinzant, Garry Black, and Elijah McClain.

Three cases our firm handled,” he said in a statement. “Between these three cases alone, Aurora has paid nearly $20 million dollars to settle these murders.”

Aurora police said in their announcement that the department considered the findings of the 18th Judicial District’s Critical Incident Response Team as well as the department’s own investigation into the related armed robbery when weighing the actions of Cary, Gruszeczka and Snapp, all three of whom have returned to their normal duties.

State Sen. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora, said that situation was “sad

on so many different levels. I understand grief, and I understand pain, and I understand loss, and it’s not easy to navigate it especially when it involves a police shooting.”

Fields has in the past been a staunch supporter of Aurora police reform and how the agency treats Black people.

“It’s important that we continue to seek justice for him, whatever that looks like,” Fields said.

She also said that law enforcement has to do better when it comes to encountering Black and Brown people. “You have to look for ways to de-escalate it, and look for ways to keep everybody safe.

We have to stop these encounters where there ends up being a dead body.”

Aurora teachers working hard to keep play coaching part of the school community Aurora Public Schools are looking for new ways to continue funding a popular program that teaches children social emotional skills through playing.

Playworks helps students build skills, like conflict resolution and compassion, and keeps students active during recess. The Playworks organization has been working with Fulton Academy of Excellence since 2018, and began working with all elementary schools in the district since 2021.

The program was paid for by the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief funds, which the federal government gave to schools due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With the deadline to spend the funds on the horizon, the district is looking for new ways to continue the programs.

Prior to Playworks coming to the school, McWilliams said students would walk around in cliques or sit under the slide in small groups. Any problems or conflicts that students had in the playground would also affect class time as teachers worked to resolve it.

McWilliams said that when students go home, they often play video games and don’t go outside to play with friends or neighbors.

“They truly don’t know games to play,” she said. “They don’t know how to make up games.”

Now, all students are involved in playing together, and McWilliams said they learned how to problem solve and mediate. They also learned how to play games so they can play them at home.

State. Sen Janet Buckner, D-Aurora, chairperson of the state Senate Education Committee, said there are many funding source opportunities, and that they would have to get creative.

Aurora arts school iconic namesake celebrates 103rd birthday with students Charles Burrell, namesake of the Charles Burrell Visual and Performing Arts Campus, celebrated his 103rd birthday with students at the school Oct. 4.

Students danced, sang songs and presented him with brightly decorated birthday posters.

School district officials also presented Burrell with a plaque, which states that Oct. 4 will be recognized as Burrell Day, to honor “his accomplishments as one of the first African American musicians to obtain a major contract with a symphony.”

Burrell joined the Colorado Symphony in 1949 and retired in 1999, according to his biography on the district website. While he played classical music and performed with the Colorado Opera Orchestra and the Central City Opera Orchestra, he was renowned for being a jazz bassist. He performed with jazz musicians such as Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington and Billie Holiday.

‘He was someone who mattered’ lawyers saying in closing arguments at Elijah McClain death trial Lawyers began delivering closing arguments Oct. 10 in the trial of the first two police officers prosecuted in the 2019 death of Elijah McClain, a Black man who was put in a neck hold and pinned down by officers in Aurora before paramedics injected him with a powerful sedative.

“His name was Elijah McClain.

He was going home,” prosecutor Duane Lyons told jurors, echoing McClain’s words that were captured on police body camera video. “He was someone who mattered,” Lyons added, as a photo of a smiling McClain was shown to jurors.

McClain was stopped while walking home from a convenience store on a summer night, listening to music and wearing a mask that covered most of his face. A 911 caller reported him as suspicious and the police stop quickly became physical with McClain, a 23-year-old massage therapist seemingly caught off guard, asking to be left alone. He had not been accused of committing any crime.

Prosecution witnesses testified that the sedative ketamine killed McClain. But prosecutors also offered medical testimony that the restraint of McClain by Aurora officers Randy Roedema and Jason Rosenblatt triggered a series of health problems that made it hard for McClain to breathe and more vulnerable to a fatal overdose. ›› See METRO, 9

Defense attorneys said McClain’s death was a tragedy and did not call any witnesses during the weekslong trial, instead using questions for prosecution witnesses to make their case that the officers were innocent.

Roedema attorney Donald Sisson urged the jury to reject the prosecution’s emotional appeals and focus instead on the potential dangers faced by the officers.

“If they don’t act, they may not go home to their family that night,” Sisson said. He added that the officers repeatedly told McClain to stop fighting and had no choice but to forcefully subdue him after Roedema shouted out during the confrontation that McClain had reached for another officer’s gun.

Rosenblatt’s attorney, Harvey Steinberg, said his client was a scapegoat who had nothing to do with McClain’s death. It was caused by the ketamine, Steinberg said.

“It was the paramedics,” Steinberg said. “And by the way, Rosenblatt wasn’t even nearby when all that takes place.”

But prosecutor Lyons said the officers failed to de-escalate the situation, ignored McClain’s obvious distress and turned off some of the body worn cameras during portions of the encounter.

“To say this was just a tragedy would trivialize what happened that evening. The defendants are guilty of crimes,” Lyons said.

McClain’s mother, Sheneen McClain sat in the front row in the packed courtroom during the arguments.

Roedema and Rosenblatt are charged with manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide and second-degree assault — all felonies.

An assault conviction carries the most serious penalty, up to 16 years in prison.

Officer Nathan Woodyard — whose trial setarts Friday— was the first to stop McClain. Within 10 seconds, Woodyard put his hands on McClain and turned him around.

As McClain tried to escape his grip, Woodyard said, “Relax, or I’m going to have to change this situation.”

The encounter escalated, with Woodyard, Roedema and Rosenblatt taking McClain to the ground and Woodyard putting him in a neck hold and pressing against his carotid artery, temporarily rendering him unconscious. The officers later told investigators they took McClain down after hearing Roedema say, “He grabbed your gun dude.”

This moment can be heard but not seen on body camera video. The extensive video of the moments leading to his death were shown repeatedly to jurors.

Two paramedics, Jeremy Cooper and Peter Cichuniec, were also charged in McClain’s death and are scheduled to go on trial in November.

The local district attorney did not pursue criminal charges in 2019, but the case was re-examined

in 2020 after Gov. Jared Polis asked state Attorney General Philip Weiser to investigate amid protests over police brutality against Black people following the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

Roedema and Woodyard are currently suspended without pay.

Rosenblatt is the only officer involved in the incident who was fired — not for the fatal encounter itself, but for making light of other officers’ reenactment of the neck hold.

Police arrest boy, 16, in connection with deadly shooting in Aurora shopping center parking lot Investigators are still trying to locate four additional suspects, police said.

Police said a 16-year-old boy suspected in the shooting of a teenager in the parking lot of an Aurora shopping center turned himself into police Oct. 10.

“The suspect, who is not being identified because he is a minor, was booked into the Aurora Jail on charges of second-degree murder and aggravated robbery, both felonies, and failing to report an accident to police, a traffic offense,” police said in a statement.

Aurora Police Department’s interim chief Art Acevedo announced

Monday that officers believe multiple shooters were involved in the Sept. 30 incident outside of the Southlands shopping mall, which left a 15-year-old dead.

Raphael Velin was killed during a meeting with other juveniles and young adults to transact “business,” which Acevedo hinted was unlawful, though he refused to elaborate when asked follow-up questions.

Acevedo said police have identified five suspects in the shooting and obtained a murder warrant for one person, whose name was not released.

“We fully anticipate arresting this individual in the upcoming days,” Acevedo said. “We are confident that we will actually bring justice to this family.”

Police said Tuesday the boy arrested was the same one Acevedo referred to Monday.

Investigators are still trying to locate four additional suspects, police said.

Police said anyone with information can call Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867. Tipsters can remain anonymous and still be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000, police said.

Aurora police chief says crime rate down this year Aurora interim police Chief Art Acevedo said the scope of youth

violence is currently “the worst that I’ve seen,” but he also called attention to overall declines in most categories of violent crime compared to the same point in time last year.

Acevedo held a press conference Oct. 9 to give the media updates on local cases and events.

According to statistics published earlier this month, as of Oct. 1, the city had seen a 12.5% reduction in the number of aggravated assaults, a 35.6% decline in robberies and one fewer murder since 2022. National and statewide numbers are not available for the same time period.

Denver police Chief Ron Thomas reported in September that Denver crime rates have also been trending downward over the last year, according to a Sept. 21 report by Axios.

Acevedo said Aurora’s outreach and proactive policing efforts — including the department’s Direct Action Response Teams, Gang Intervention Unit, Police Area Representatives and School Resource Officers — have helped the department get ahead of crime and also beat national averages for solving cases.

In 2022, Aurora cleared about 85% of all homicides compared to a national average of 50%, according to Acevedo. He said the department’s year-to-date clearance rate is closer to 67% but that they expect to clear more cases before the end of the year. ›› See METRO, 15

Fred the Pig is suspected to be between 400 and 600 pounds. He is currently being held at the Aurora Animal Shelter.

multi-day crime spree ended in captivity for a 400-to600-pound hog suspected of uprooting greenery, stopping traffic and generally making a sty of Aurora last week.

As of Oct. 4, employees at the Aurora Animal Shelter said the free-spirited swine was making the

him, like a concerned citizen or something,” Allen said. “I really don’t know. He didn’t have it on the first three days.”

The Aurora Police Department contacted Aurora Animal Services about the pig at about 4 a.m. on Sept. 27. An animal control officer surveilled it until backup arrived later that morning.

It ultimately took five Aurora Animal Services

tential downsides was said to be the phenomenon of people buying pigs without understanding how large they can grow to be as adults, only to turn them over to shelters or release them into the wild when they grow beyond expectations.

Erin Brinkley-Burgardt — who along with her husband, Andrew, co-founded Hog Haven Farm in 2014 — said many of the pigs that have ended up

best of its enclosure at the facility, which includes a trough and a childrens’ swimming pool for wallowing.

“He’s actually a super nice pig,” Aurora Animal Services field supervisor Augusta Allen said. “Wherever he came from, somebody had paid attention to him and given him lots of love, because he certainly likes people.”

The city has so far been unable to find the owner of the animal, which shelter employees have nicknamed Fred, after a prankster called the city to report that a “very sensitive” pig of the same name had gotten loose.

Allen said the city got its first call about a pig in traffic late in the afternoon of Sept. 24. Animal control officers were not able to locate the boar, which was reported to be in the 600 block of Telluride Street. Over the next few days, callers spotted the pig near First Avenue and Chambers Street, and then on South Evanston Way. Allen said members of the public mostly reported the animal trotting near traffic and digging up landscaping. When police finally found the pig near the intersection of Alameda Parkway and Chambers, it was trailing a lasso around its neck — evidence of a previous attempt to wrangle the animal, though not by animal control officers.

“I don’t know if somebody else tried to capture

employees, three Aurora Parks, Recreation and Open Space workers and at least two bystanders to make an “alley” out of wooden panels and cajole the hog into a trailer owned by the city, Allen said.

“He was not having any of us telling him where to go,” she said. “Somebody grabbed the lasso and was pulling, and someone else got behind him and pushed until we finally got him into the trailer. He was being loud and a little dramatic.”

But Allen said Fred has since warmed up to shelter employees, who have waited in vain for the past week for his owner to come forward. City spokesman Michael Brannen said that, if the animal wasn’t claimed by the end of the day Wednesday, the shelter would look for a livestock rescue to adopt the animal.

Fred does not have tags or branding that would mark him as part of a commercial livestock operation, though Allen said he is a Large White pig, which are often bred commercially. She said they even scanned Fred for a microchip — no such luck.

While the shelter says Fred weighs between 400 and 600 pounds, this is only an estimate, since the facility does not have a scale capable of weighing animals of his size.

Allen said the city hasn’t ruled out the possibility that Fred was deliberately abandoned.

When Aurora considered allowing small pigs on some residential properties last year, one of the po-

at her rescue in rural Deer Trail have come from Aurora.

She said prospective pig owners should make sure they have a backyard with enough space for fully-grown animals to roam freely.

“They really do thrive with outdoor time,” Brinkley-Burgardt said. “They like to sunbathe. They like to graze. They like to root. So having ample space outside is really important for their mental stimulation and to encourage natural behaviors.”

Pigs are still forbidden on the majority of residential properties in Aurora, along with other traditional livestock animals. Brinkley-Burgardt also said that a farm pig of Fred’s size would be “very difficult to keep in a suburban environment.”

Allen said the Aurora Animal Shelter receives about 20 livestock animals each year but that Fred is the first pig of his size that she’s seen in her three and a half years with the city.

“And so we’ve started looking for an appropriate place for him to go. It obviously needs to be a farm, and we don’t want him to go to a meat-market farm, if you will. We’re looking for someone who will take good care of him and keep him around. He’s a nice pig,” Allen said.

WHY MANY AMERICANS HAVE STOPPED EXERCISING

BY MICHAEL POLLICK, THE ASSOCIATED PRESS VIA WEALTH OF GEEKS

A

recent study by the employee wellness company Gympass reveals that 79% of respondents feel better when they follow a regular exercise regimen. On the other hand, 48% report being too busy with other work/life obligations to manage one.

The Gympass study also discovered that many American workers have largely abandoned organized fitness routines and gym visits. 60% report feeling too mentally and physically drained after work to perform any exercises, such as the trending “ cozy cardio,” or participate in sports.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends that healthy Americans exercise at least twenty minutes of exercise every day. However, only an estimated 28% reach that goal regularly. Here are some common reasons why fewer Americans are getting physical: Work/Life Obligations For many American workers, the physical and mental demands of their jobs or family obligations are so draining that the thought of additional exercise can be overwhelming. While participation in a company-sponsored wellness program or a personal exercise regimen may start as a priority, maintaining long-term interest is challenging for professional trainers and their clients.

Mike Julom, founder of This Is Why I’m Fit, knows how to address this issue. “To keep clients dedicated, it’s crucial to set realistic goals.

This involves guiding them toward sustainable, long-term achievements. I like to break down larger objectives into smaller, more manageable milestones, which can provide a consistent sense of accomplishment and in turn, keep motivation levels high.”

“Another key aspect is variety,” Julom continues. “It’s not just about avoiding boredom; it’s about ensuring that clients are getting a well-rounded fitness experience, targeting different muscle groups, and promoting overall functional fitness. Regularly introducing new exercises and routines keeps things fresh and ensures clients are getting the most comprehensive training possible.”

Sports and Exercise Programs Are Risky Another reason many people lose interest in exercise is the risk of injury. Participating in contact sports, for example, offers participants a way to release tension and improve conditioning, but it can also lead to debilitating injuries if an accident occurs. Activities such as weight training can also take a toll on the body. Some people choose to stop these riskier forms of exercise rather than take a chance on serious injury.

However, health risks are associated with abruptly ending an exercise regimen, especially for older participants.

Julom explains, “First off, cardiovascular

health can take a hit. Regular exercise keeps the heart strong and blood flowing smoothly. Without it, there’s a potential increase in the risk of heart-related issues. Muscle loss is another concern. When you’re not challenging your muscles like you used to, they can start to weaken and shrink. This not only affects strength but also metabolism, as muscle tissue burns more calories than fat.

“Another subtle change is in the body’s insulin sensitivity. Regular exercise helps the body use insulin more effectively, which is crucial for blood sugar regulation. Without consistent physical activity, some individuals might find their blood sugar levels harder to manage.”

Workout Routines Become Workout Ruts Repetition often leads to boredom, but exercise routines such as aerobics and weight training rely on consistency and repetition to be effective.

The lack of variety or modulation in an exercise routine can affect motivation and interest, creating a challenge for personal trainers and clients alike.

Alexa Duckworth-Briggs, a certified running coach at UK-based We Run, points out,” One significant factor contributing to the waning interest in exercise regimens is the lack of modulation in workout intensity. Many people enter into fitness programs with the perception that ‘more is better’ and that each workout session has to be strenuous to be effective. ›› See NO SWEAT, 14

“While a challenging workout can indeed be satisfying, pushing too hard, too frequently can lead to both physical and psychological burnout. This ‘all or nothing’ mindset can quickly make exercise feel like a chore rather than an enjoyable and sustainable activity.”

“From a health perspective, constantly pushing oneself to the limit without adequate rest or lower-intensity sessions increases the risk of injuries or ‘niggles,’” Duckworth-Briggs adds. “This can be detrimental in two ways. First, the injury itself can be a barrier to further exercise, breaking the habit and routine that the individual has built up. Second, the fear of future injury can also serve as a psychological deterrent, causing people to disengage from exercise programs altogether.”

Gyms Are Too Expensive/Inconvenient/Intimidating Even if interest in a wellness plan or personal training is high, the costs associated with those goals can be even higher. Gym membership fees can be prohibitively expensive, and the closest facility requires a lengthy commute.

The gym’s atmosphere could also be intimidating for members not in peak physical condition. The fear of ridicule from other members or staff is anoth-

er reason why many people have canceled gym memberships or stopped participating in organized programs.

Michele Paiva, a yoga studio owner and Finance Therapist at The Finance Therapist, offers this suggestion, “I feel that professional trainers need first to meet people where they are; meaning, often trainers have an idea of what they think a client wants or what they want for the client, but sometimes the client has other ideas.”

“When someone quits their workout, they often struggle with a bit of depression. They had high hopes, and now they feel deflated. They may have an injury that they don’t want to tell you about, or maybe they feel that you don’t ‘get’ them,” Paiva adds.

“Maybe they have financial struggles. The idea here is to problem-solve for them. If it is financial, understand that this is a huge source of shame for most people. Many people connect their assets or available income to their self-value. Show them that this isn’t the case. Offer payment plans or a discount if that is the case.”

Although interest in wellness programs may be waning among American workers, the health benefits of exercise remain. Physicians and other professionals still recommend some form of cardiovascular exercise to maintain ideal health.

US health officials propose using a cheap antibiotic as a ‘morning-after pill’ against STDs

BY MIKE STOBBE, AP MEDICAL WRITER

U.S. health officials plan to endorse a common antibiotic as a morning-after pill that gay and bisexual men can use to try to avoid some increasingly common sexually transmitted diseases.

The proposed CDC guideline was released last week, and officials will move to finalize it after a 45-day public comment period.

With STD rates rising to record levels, “more tools are desperately needed,” said Dr. Jonathan Mermin of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The proposal comes after studies found some people who took the antibiotic doxycycline within three days of unprotected sex were far less likely to get chlamydia, syphilis or gonorrhea compared with people who did not take the pills after sex.

The guideline is specific to the group that has been most studied — gay and bisexual men and transgender women who had a STD in the previous 12 months and were at high risk to get infected again.

There’s less evidence that the approach works for other people, including heterosexual men and women. That could change T:9.625"

as more research is done, said Mermin, who oversees the CDC’s STD efforts.

Even so, the idea ranks as one of only a few major prevention measures in recent decades in “a field that’s lacked innovation for so long,” said Mermin.

The others include a vaccine against the HPV virus and pills to ward off HIV, he said.

Doxycycline, a cheap antibiotic that has been available for more than 40 years, is a treatment for health problems including acne, chlamydia and Rocky Mountain spotted fever.

The CDC guidelines were based on four studies of using doxycycline against bacterial STDs. One of the most influential was a New England Journal of Medicine study earlier this year.

It found that gay men, bisexual men and transgender women with previous STD infections who took the pills were about 90% less likely to get chlamydia, about 80% less likely to get syphilis and more than 50% less likely to get gonorrhea compared with people who didn’t take the pills after sex.

A year ago, San Francisco’s health department began promoting doxycycline as a morn-

ing-after prevention measure.

With infection rates rising, “we didn’t feel like we could wait,” said Dr. Stephanie Cohen, who oversees the department’s STD prevention work.

Some other city, county and state health departments — mostly on the West Coast — followed suit.

At Fenway Health, a Boston-based health center that serves many gay, lesbian and transgender clients, about 1,000 patients are using doxycycline that way now, said Dr. Taimur Khan, the organization’s associate medical research director.

The guideline should have a big impact, because many doctors have been reluctant to talk to patients about it until they heard from the CDC, Khan said.

The drug’s side effects include stomach problems and rashes after sun exposure. Some research has found it ineffective in heterosexual women. And widespread use of doxycycline as a preventive measure could — theoretically — contribute to mutations that make bacteria impervious to the drug.

That kind of antibiotic resistance hasn’t materialized in San Francisco, but it will be important to watch for, Cohen said.

“If you commit a homicide in our city, you’re much more likely to be apprehended, and charged, and held accountable than you are in a lot of other places across the country,” Acevedo said.

Councilmember Francoise Bergan, whose ward includes Southlands, also spoke during Monday’s news conference to express her faith in the police department and assure residents that they are safe in their community.

“Although this was not a random shooting, and they should not fear going out and about with their business, we do hear them, and we understand their concerns,” she said.

Acevedo also said the department is planning on conducting patrols near local houses of worship and may send uniformed and plainclothes officers to vigils and other events being held in response to the Oct. 7 invasion of Israel by Palestinian militants and Hamas.

He said the department has not been made aware of any local threats sparked by the conflict overseas and that no local congregations have asked for an increased police presence but called directed patrols “the “prudent thing to do.”

He also said the police department would respect the public’s right to peacefully demonstrate.

As of press time, no Aurora protests had been reported.

“But we will not tolerate violence,” he said. “We will be monitoring our region for any threats, and any threat will be taken very seriously and will be dealt with aggressively and within the confines of the law. … My heart goes out to all of the victims of this violence that’s going on in the Middle East right now.”

HEAD START ON PAIN 16 | SENTINELCOLORADO.COM | OCTOBER 12, 2023

For patients with ‘invisible’ brain disorder, Aurora institute offers treatment and answers

BY MAX LEVY, SENTINEL STAFF WRITER

G

rowing up, Allison Reed thought the shooting pain she experienced whenever she laughed, coughed or sneezed was nothing to worry about.

The pain raced down her neck and back. Since no one could explain the symptoms, she tried her best to shrug them off.

“You kind of think to yourself, maybe it’s normal,” Reed said. “Maybe everybody feels this level of pain when they’re coughing or laughing.”

In 2013, the Longmont mother of three suffered a head injury, and began experiencing migraine headaches that were not as easy to ignore.

An MRI of her injury showed that she also had a Chiari malformation — a developmental disorder that causes part of the brain to protrude out of the gap between the skull and the spine — but since her doctors were unfamiliar with the problems caused by the condition, they did not make a connection at the time between Reed’s headaches and her Chiari.

In 2022, Reed experienced two concussions back-to-back, and the once-occasional migraines

turned into a nonstop barrage of debilitating neurological symptoms.

She was constantly nauseous and stopped eating, losing about 50 pounds. The pain in her head, neck and shoulder made it hard to sleep. She would stutter and hiccup uncontrollably, and she began to develop memory problems and had difficulties walking and swallowing.

The problems escalated to the point that she was forced to quit her job providing respite services for people with disabilities.

“I would almost compare it to having a brain injury,” she said. “I was so forgetful, and just so out of it, and I couldn’t function. I slept all the time, and I’m a mom of three. I can’t sleep all the time. I have to get up and take care of my kids…I couldn’t survive, and I kept trying to get help, and I kept getting turned away.”

Reed went to the emergency room, saw multiple doctors and was prescribed medication for her headaches. The symptoms continued and grew worse.

She said it was ultimately social media that

led her to information about the effects of Chiari malformations and the Aurora practice of neurosurgeon Colin Buchanan, who leads the Colorado Chiari Institute at the Medical Center of Aurora.

Buchanan is one of a small number of surgeons in the region who specializes in treating Chiari malformations, and the Colorado Chiari Institute is similarly unique for its focus on a brain disorder that is widely known but not well understood by many medical practitioners.

Buchanan operated on Reed in February, removing one of her spinal vertebrae and inserting a metal plate in a procedure known as Chiari decompression surgery. Since then, Reed said her headaches and other symptoms have only improved.

“The biggest thing that I cried about and was shocked about was that I could feel each of my fingers, and I could feel my toes,” she said. “It’s completely changed my life. I’m able to go back out and be active again. I’m able to go hiking. I’m able to keep up with my kids. And that’s all because he knew how to treat this.”

OCTOBER 12, 2023 | SENTINELCOLORADO.COM | 17

Chiari care gets a home in Colorado In the early 2000s, neurosurgeon John Oro established the Colorado Chiari Institute at the Medical Center of Aurora, focusing on the brain disorder that is estimated to impact about 0.1% of the U.S. population, according to the American Association of Neurological Surgeons.

Many of those people don’t go on to develop symptoms. But for others, the pinching of the exposed section of brain between the skull and spine causes a buildup of fluid in the spinal cord as well as symptoms that can be crippling.

Buchanan said Oro’s work with Chiari patients inspired him to join the clinic. Oro has since retired, and for the past year, Buchanan has been the institute’s sole neurosurgeon.

“At the moment, we’re one of two or three centers like this in the U.S.,” he said. “What we’re trying to do is offer expertise in a condition that affects more people than we think. And we’re trying to take an approach that’s comprehensive and not just ruling people in or out for surgery. We’re trying to help guide people through this process, and educate them, and help them determine a treatment plan that makes sense for them. And that may or may not include surgery.”

Buchanan said the treatment options presented to patients depend on the presence of fluid-filled cysts called syrinxes on the spinal cord, which are caused by the blockage of spinal fluid. He said the condition can inflict permanent neurological damage if left unchecked.

For patients who don’t have a syrinx, he said non-surgical treatments such as physical therapy and botox injections can help manage the symptoms of Chiari. But for patients with a syrinx, Buchanan said he believes there “isn’t an acceptable alternative” to surgery.

After years of dealing with symptoms that had forced her to quit her job and impacted her ability to be present with her children, Reed said she was relieved when Buchanan recommended decompression surgery.

“It’s what I was hoping for,” she said. “I knew I needed it. And I felt like I won the lotto when he told me that I got to have brain surgery, which I know sounds crazy, but that’s where I was at. I hugged him because I was just so grateful that he was willing to treat me and take me on as a patient.”

Buchanan, who said he’s on track to perform between 50 and 75 decompression surgeries this year, also said Reed wasn’t alone in struggling to find medical professionals who understood the ins and outs of Chiari.

“I think it requires some exposure to this to understand what Chiari means for patients,” he said. “There’s an awareness of Chiari as a disease, but I don’t think it’s really well understood. And sometimes the symptoms that people have are attributed to just having a headache and, you know, take some Tylenol and ibuprofen, and it’ll get better. And that’s not the case here.”

Rick Labuda — a Chiari patient himself and the executive director of Pennsylvania-based educational nonprofit Conquer Chiari — said patients often have a hard time getting an accurate diagnosis for the spectrum of symptoms associated with Chiari, which can include everything from splitting headaches to trouble swallowing and balance problems.

Once diagnosed, patients outside of large metropolitan areas may also struggle to find a neurosurgeon who has performed a large number of Chiari surgeries, Labuda said. While he said decompression surgery should be within the comfort zone of any certified neurosurgeon, only a handful of surgeons and facilities market themselves specifically to Chiari patients.

A survey by Conquer Chiari of 1,576 adult and juvenile Chiari patients indicated that about 75% of patients who underwent surgery reported some improvement in symptoms, with about 43% reporting a total or “significant” reduction and 78% saying that, knowing the outcome, they would go through with surgery again.

According to Buchanan, about 80% of patients who received decompression surgery through the Colorado Chiari Institute have reported a significant reduction in their Chiari symptoms. Buchanan said patients typically begin seeing a reduction in their symptoms within one to two months, with the full results of the surgery sometimes taking a year or more to manifest.

Labuda said children tend to recover more quickly from the surgery and that it took him about a decade to feel the full benefits of his own decompression surgery.

He said that, while he personally would seek out a

surgeon who has done a large number of Chiari surgeries, other patients might prioritize finding a surgeon with a good bedside manner or look for other qualifications.

“We feel that it is critical for patients to educate themselves, and to be in charge of their own journey,” he said.

Dorothy Poppe — the executive director of another nonprofit that supports Chiari research, the Bobby Jones Chiari and Syringomyelia Foundation — said the landscape of care for Chiari patients differs depending on where patients live. She described the Colorado Chiari Institute as “one of the only treatment centers” in the region.

She said awareness of the condition has improved since the 1990s, when her young son was diagnosed with Chiari and the related condition of syringomyelia. “(MRI) was this brand new technology when my son was getting treated. And now it’s improved so much, and it’s everywhere, whereas at that time it wasn’t everywhere,” Poppe said. “At that time, there were very few neurosurgeons who were even interested in Chiari, and I think part of that interest came after you could actually see it on an MRI.”

Mystery solved Another Colorado Chiari Institute patient, Hannah Jane, first went to the emergency room in 2018 when she began experiencing symptoms of vertigo. The doctors there suggested she was suffering from a migraine headache and discharged her.

But she said her illness only progressed, growing to encompass “pretty much every single symptom Chiari has to offer.” Over the next few years, she continued to seek out doctors and surgeons who also attributed her dizziness, balance problems and numbness in her arms and legs to migraines.

“One doctor told me that she didn’t even know what to do with me anymore because they just couldn’t find any answers,” Jane said.

The symptoms also impacted her ability to work as a fashion designer. Jane learned to sew at age 8 and turned her love of clothing and fashion into a career and artistic outlet as an adult. She said Chiari turned the work that she was passionate about into an uphill battle.

“I was so fed up with my life. I had no life,” she said.

“I was doing something I loved, but I didn’t feel good doing it. Things that would maybe take me an hour before could take me 24 hours, or something that I could do in a day would take me a month.”

In 2020, a physician finally suggested she seek care through the Colorado Chiari Institute. When several months of medication and other treatments failed to improve Jane’s symptoms, the staffers at the institute agreed to perform decompression surgery. Jane wanted

the surgery, but she still had reservations.

“I felt like I was going into it unsure if it was going to work. But they were wonderful,” she said. “They were so supportive of my hesitation. We actually went through multiple meetings where they went through everything, and they just tried to calm my nerves, and make me feel supported, because it’s not every day you make the choice to have brain surgery.”

Since her surgery in June 2021, Jane’s symptoms have improved. Like Reed, Jane’s constant nausea kept her from eating. When Jane woke up after her operation, she said she was “starving,” and she could again feel her arms and legs.

Other symptoms, like the vertigo she started experiencing in 2018, haven’t gone away completely, but are more manageable than they were in 2021.

Many of the new pieces of clothing produced by Jane include the motif of a butterfly, symbolizing her triumph and the triumph of other patients over Chiari. And she said the support she’s received from the institute has helped her overcome the symptoms that she continues to struggle with.

“I think that the surgery and having them available definitely impacted my life because I felt heard, and I felt like I had a space that was safe,” she said. “And I think one of the hardest things in the medical industry, especially with an invisible illness, is trying to find people who understand exactly what you’re going through.”

Buchanan said he sees the Colorado Chiari Institute as a vehicle for supporting Chiari patients, not only by offering treatment but also by providing a tangible explanation for symptoms that can change the course of patients’ lives.

“By the time they see me as a specialist, it’s often quite a relief for them to hear that there’s a diagnosis that explains what they’ve been going through, and there’s a reason for all of this stuff,” he said. “It’s pretty powerful. They feel validated.”

Taking their last swing at it: Seniors Jenna Patterson, left, and Natalie Shellhorn have led the way for the return of varsity softball at Regis Jesuit this season.

N

atalie Shellhorn and Jenna Patterson have perspective that is as healthy as their batting averages.

That’s saying something for the two seniors on the Regis Jesuit softball team, who both sport averages over .500.

Shellhorn and Patterson have had rollercoaster prep careers that saw highs, lows and the disappearance of the program for a season.

They are currently the linchpins of softball’s return to Regis Jesuit and have enjoyed a building season that will SOFTBALL end in the Class 5A postseason.

Spartans make it to the semifinals of the 3A state tournament — but both jumped at the chance to be part of the return of varsity play at Regis Jesuit.

They both came back ready to be mentors to a young roster, one that includes a whopping eight freshmen and a few players who had never played the game before. They have loved every minute of it in the wake of what they’ve been through.

“I think I’ve learned to be a leader through all this,” Patterson said. “Yeah, it sucked along the way sometimes, but I think it was a very good learning experience and I can take the lessons I learned over these four years into the rest of my life.”

“Although I look at my friends who play at other schools, and have played all four years, and have had a solid foundation, I would say the bonds I have with Jenna and some of the girls I’ve played with since freshman and sophomore year are stronger than if we had just eased through four years,” Shellhorn said.

“The appreciation I have for the team this year and the growth

BY COURTNEY OAKES Sports Editor and desire I have to pass it along in positive hands comes from that adversity.”

Things started well for the seniors when they were on the roster for Regis Jesuit’s trip to the 5A state tournament in 2020, which ended in a first-round loss. They then endured a difficult 2021 campaign in which the team went just 2-21 and then got the news that the program didn’t have enough numbers to field more than a junior varsity in 2022.

In a diaspora of varsity players, Patterson ended up at Rock Canyon and Shellhorn at Thomas Jefferson — where she hit .604 and helped the

A return to play required a coach and that turned out to be Tyler Robbins, a longtime member of coach Matt Darr’s coaching staff on the Regis Jesuit baseball team. He asked Darr to join his staff to helpk him navigate a sport that is similar, though vastly different.

He wasn’t sure exactly what to expect, but has been thrilled to see the evolution of his team throughout a 10-10 regular season.

“Goal one was to have a varsity team, and goal two was to win a game,” Robbins said. “These girls have done nothing but work their tails off and continue to improve and grow together. It’s been amazing.”

The first goals got checked off right away as Regis Jesuit topped Mountain View 14-1 in a tournament game to open the season, then won again 12-2 the next day. What followed was a slew of lopsided results in which the Raiders either won or lost by double-digit margins.

Having Shellhorn at shortstop and Patterson behind the plate helping freshman pitcher Alex Tavlarides get adjusted to a lead role helped Re-

Rousing return

gis Jesuit growh by leaps and bounds.

Tavlarides was at her best in the two most crucial games of the season, which Regis Jesuit had to win to have any chance to make it into regionals. The Raiders held off Rock Canyon 10-0 and defeated Ponderosa (a 5A state tournament team last season) 5-2 for their 10th win.

By the time the last day of the season ended and the RPI shifting fell in Regis Jesuit’s favor — Shellhorn was getting periodic updates from her father about how the formula changed throughout the day — it meant the seniors would get a last chance to experience postseason play and young players would gain more valuable experience.

Robbins couldn’t have written a better script.

“This has been a lot about our two seniors stepping up, coming in Day 1 and loving this program in just a masterful way,” Robbins said.

“They have always been there to pick the girls up and that really went a long way. That’s what I’m happiest about, that those two seniors get a shot in their final year to play postseason softball for a school they’ve attended.”

The task is tall for the No. 32 seed, which is pitted against the No. 1 team in the opening round, in this case, Arvada West. The Raiders will face the 19-4 Wildcats on their home field at 10 a.m. Oct. 13. Even if they lose, they can gain a state tournament berth with two consolation bracket victories.

One of the teams Regis Jesuit will need to get past to get into the state tournament is 16th-seeded Eaglecrest, as half of the Aurora area’s four qualifiers ended up in Region 1. Coach Yvette Hendrian’s Raptors have a 17-6 record — the same mark as ninth-seeded Grandview and 10th-seeded Cherokee Trail, the Centennial League champion — and will play Heritage in the other Region 1 game.

Coach Liz Carter’s veteran Grandview team is back in the postseason after a spirited run to the 5A state tournament last season, while Cherokee Trail — which has a tradition of thriving in the postseason and also has a good share of playoff-tested players — also will be in action seeking state berths.

FOOTBALL

City teams finish 2-9 in rough Week 7 play League play has proven to be difficult for Aurora football teams in the early stages, as the city’s 11 programs finished a combined 2-9 in Week 7, which marked the fewest amount of wins in any week so far.

The only Aurora-area programs to walk off the field as winners were Eaglecrest — which prevailed in a head-to-head matchup with another local program, Cherokee Trail — and Overland.

The Raptors (6-1 overall, 1-1 in Centennial League) battled with the shorthanded Cougars — who were still without a large slew of injured players — and prevailed with an outstanding defensive effort in addition to a pair of touchdown passes from quarterback Joe Steiner to tight end Logan Ryan. The second connection came on a short pass in the fourth quarter that Ryan skied to bring in with one hand before he hit the ground. Cherokee Trail (3-4, 0-2) — which forced six turnovers, including two interceptions from Cayden Sweets — got a late touchdown pass from Tyson Smith to Carson Pierce to make it a game.

Overland stretched its winning streak to three games with a 27-0 shutout of Northglenn in Metro North play Oct. 5 at Stutler Bowl. Jarrius Ward rushed for 200-plus yards and scored three touchdowns of 81, 30 and 42 yards, while Talil Seals-Fisher threw a scoring strike to Kamaur Allison for the Trailblazers (4-3, 2-0).

Grandview had a Centennial League showdown with Arapahoe Oct. 5 at Legacy Stadium and ended up on the short end of a 30-16 decision. The Wolves (5-2, 1-1) got touchdown passes from Liam Szarka to Xay Neto and Kyler Vaughn and went into halftime tied but were kept off the scoreboard in the second half.

In its first game in Lou Kellogg Stadium since the completion of renovations, Regis Jesuit held the lead over undefeated Pine Creek in a Southern League clash into the final minute until the Eagles scored a touchdown to earn a 21-17 victory. Peyton Lindell threw touchdown passes to Anthony Medina and Jaden Thermidor and Jack Manthey had a fourth-quarter field goal that gave the Raiders (3-4, 1-1).

Rangeview trailed by 21 points at halftime in an Oct. 5 Front Range League South matchup with Horizon, but rallied to within three before it dropped a 24-21 decision. The Raiders (1-6, 0-2) got 138 yards rushing and two touchdowns from Jah Alexander plus another TD from Kevin Prosser.

Vista PEAK Prep dropped to 2-5 overall and 0-2 in the 4A Southeast Metro League with a 55-23 loss to Ponderosa Oct. 4 at APS Stadium. The Bison had two receivers — Kyron Chiku-Martinez and Larry Mosely — go over 100 yards and catch touchdown passes from Canaan Barthlow.

BOYS TENNIS

Six local singles players, six doubles teams in 5A individual state tourney Three Aurora programs will be represented in the Class 5A boys tennis individual state tournament which runs Oct. 12-14 at City Park in Denver.

Weather permitting, the 5A individual tournament is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. Oct. 12 and start on the same time on Oct. 13 (beginning with semifinals followed by playbacks) and championship and third-place matches on Oct. 14.

Regis Jesuit — which already advanced to the semifinal of the 5A team state championship tournament — had a clean sweep through Region 4 Oct. 5 at the Denver Tennis Park to send all three singles players and four doubles teams through.

Clay Dickey won a three-set final at No. 1 singles to join Alec Rodriguez-Fields (No. 2) and Vlad Suk-

Aurora’s other regional championship came from Grandview’s Justin Son at No. 1 singles at the Region 7 tournament that ended Oct. 5 in Boulder. Son qualified for the individual state tournament at No. 3 singles last season and is headed back at No. 1 singles, as he assumes the spot left

by Eduard Tsaturyan, who capped his senior year with last season’s state championship. Son, a sophomore, defeated Rock Canyon’s Will Strabel 6-0, 6-1 in the regional title match.

Sophomore Carter Benton is headed to state at No. 3 singles for the Wolves, as he qualified despite a loss to Fairview’s Ben Mai Dan in the regional final.

Cherokee Trail has a contingent that includes a pair of Region 3 runners-up in sophomore Swagat Behara at No. 2 singles and the No. 4 doubles team of juniors Edward Tay and Ryan Martin. Both finished second at their respective positions Oct. 5 at North Lake Tennis Park, while they will be joined at state by the No. 1 doubles team of junior Zachary Monforton and sophomore Aditya Fernandez. The duo lost in a playback against a team from Ponderosa, but ended up with the state slot as the Mustangs had a player that is unable to play due to a planned trip abroad.

Cherokee Trail also had the thirdplace finishers at No. 1 singles (Sachin Suresh) and No. 3 singles (Clark Deleeuw, who lost in a playback for state) plus Nos. 2 and 3 doubles in Alan Kamalov and Alexandre McNeil and Ali Minhajuddin and Matthew Jeung, respectively.

Among other non-state qualifiers, Grandview’s No. 1 doubles team of John Alie and Chad Campbell and its No. 2 doubles team of Mohammed Batthef and Atharv Peroor placed third in 7, while Smoky Hill’s Smoky Hill had a regional placer in George Robin, who took third place at No. 1 singles in Region 4, while No. 2 singles players Pravinh Jaine placed fourth, as did all four Buffaloes doubles teams (Devin Naastad & Kaelen Szumny at No. 1, Itzhak Choi & Eli Neely at No. 2, Henry Stanley & Cameron Strauss at No. 3 and Owen Byrd and Caleb White at No. 4).

At the Region 3 tournament, Eaglecrest had fourth-place finishers at No. 2 singles (Austin Moore), as well as No. 3 doubles (Luke Forbes and Anthony Giancaterino) and No. 4 doubles (Aiden Segovia and Caleb Patterson).

McDaniel’s time of 20 minutes, 28.3 seconds, and Abeyta’s 20:37 landed them both all-league second team honors, which also went to Abeyta’s teammate Julia Pace (who placed 12th in 21:02.1) and Eaglecrest’s Jenna Winn, who came in 13th in a time of 21:06.9.

Grandview scored 95 points to take third with a nine-point margin over Cherokee Trail with Eaglecrest in fifth and Smoky Hill in seventh. Host Overland did not have enough finish-

ers to register a team score.
