  1. Not trying to take attention away from this story but I have another one that's not equal to but is news worth when it comes to wasting tax payers money. So first off you have to be in the correct frame of mind, which is, Wendy (or as Eric Ross says, the dead woman) was my common law wife and the property in question was where we both resided. So this entire story is a lie and that's why it doesn't make sense. If I moved in that home after Wendy's death and stole her car the cops would obviously have arrested me… Then, not being able to arrest me for that, some other charges were trumped up which not only did I not do but I was actually helping the alleged victim. So I'm sitting in jail trying to learn the law to understand how the he'll all this could be happening to me. I requested to use the jails law library and I requested some envelopes so I could write some attorneys asking for help. The lady in charge of those request was Janet King. She refused both my request so I filed several grievances trying to obtain the two items I needed. Evidently she is related to some man of power so no one would go over her head to give me an envelope. Allow me also to remind you using the library would obviously be free, but an envelope would cost approximately less than a dollar. Once my grievances were denied my only option then was to file a complaint to the district court to ask them to make her give me the envelope. Typically to defend a civil action an attorney would charge $10k-$50k. This burden is born to the El Paso County Attorneys Office. I assumed they would see the issue and instantly give me an envelope then case closed we all go home for under $5k. But boy was I wrong… Turns out there was over one hundred filings and then the case after a year ended up in the court of appeals. I'm not sure the cost to draft briefs in the Colorado court of appeals but I'd estimate around $50k. The county attorneys office has managed to rack up at least $75k in tax payers money and after its all said and done guess what happens if they actually do win? Yep, I'm not going to get an envelope. But the case is far from over and they could very well end up blowing another $75k going to federal court after the state level is cashed. Now I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed but if I had the power to determine the proper allocation of tax payer funds how many would have opted to surrender the envelope, shit I might even throw in a stamp for good measure. Now that's a story.

  2. I can't believe this guy took all this mother had on her memories of her daughter as well as the car I'm wondering if he knew the woman before her death too it kinda is large red flag on she was missing right?? Or unexpected death just asking if so how cold is the case and did this man ever come to understand he can't use the system to steal property he has to work for it as well as pay his own way I mean churches help but they need something on reoffenders at times as well just asking about the situation in this case and nope his local doctors and church

  3. it's the Family's fault for not securing a vacant property in the first place and left the place empty (unattended), which is a target for scrappers and homeless people (squatters). Either hire a building/property manager, or get a friend/family to secure your property. A death in the family is not an excuse to be negligent or to let your guard down.
