Jail Inmate files extreme risk protection order against Weld County sheriff
"... The petition was filed by Leo Crespin, who is currently being held in the Weld County Jail for a number of drug-related felony charges.
Under Colorado’s new “red flag” law, any citizen can file to have someone’s firearms removed if they are believed to be a danger to anyone, including themselves. A judge will decide if someone initially meets the criteria to have his or her guns taken away. This first hearing will be conducted ex parte, without the gun owner present. A judge can decide if the situation warrants the sheriff and his or her deputies moving in to take guns away immediately without the gun owner’s knowledge and before a notice to appear in court can be given to the gun owner. A petition for an extreme risk protection order requires the petitioner to have a connection to the respondent, such as being a blood relative, a marriage or domestic partner, or having a child in common with the respondent. Under penalty of perjury, Crespin said he regularly resides or has regularly resided with Reams, as he lives in the jail of which Reams is in charge. In the ERPO, Crespin accused Reams’ deputies of “excessively abusing inmates with these shotguns.” Nineteenth Judicial District Chief Judge James F. Hartmann denied the order, thereby dismissing the case . . . " https://kdvr.com/news/local/judge-de...ounty-sheriff/ |
