When the Columbine Valley Police Department (Colorado), using their dystopian flock surveillance system, saw a green Rivian truck driving down the same street, in the same town, 20 times over the course of a month, they became suspicious. But even more suspicious than that, the driver of the Rivian truck was a woman with blonde hair… So when a $25 package went missing from a porch in that neighborhood that the blonde bandit was driving her 70 thousand dollar truck through on a daily basis, it obviously must have been her. At that point the government did what any good dystopian government agency would do, they sent a rude, bald member of their goon squad to the woman’s front door to lie to her; gaslight her; and threaten her.

Man Fights for his Right to Call Cops “D**kheads” for Blocking the Drive-Thru
Josh Smith just wanted to get some fast food from “Humdingers” in Montrose, Colorado, but three police cars were blocking the drive-thru. The cops had just found a sex toy in the car they were searching in the parking lot, and they were goofing off with it. But Josh was hungry. He told them to “move their shit out of the way, dickheads.” He was eventually pulled over about a mile away and ticketed for “an obscene gesture.”
How to Get Fired as a Cop in 3 Days – FINAL UPDATE
A little over a year ago I put up a video about the Loveland Police Department officer who was captured on bodycam punching a handcuffed woman, resulting in his being fired just three days later. Well, here’s the update. The officer was prosecuted, and the case went to jury trial a few days ago. Was justice served?
Here’s an updated media report.
Cop Slams Birthday Girl to the Pavement | Lawsuit Settles After 7 YEARS!
Seven years ago, in Fort Collins, Colorado, the Fort Collins Police Department slammed this girl to the pavement. The obviously-unnecessary use of force was caught on video. A lawsuit was filed. The officer was denied qualified immunity. He appealed to the 10th Circuit. In a published opinion, the 10th Circuit found that the officer indeed used excessive force – a Fourth Amendment violation – but, since the plaintiff wasn’t able to point to a similar prior case finding a similar violation, that the officer gets qualified immunity. The remaining claims against the city were just settled for $300K.
Here’s the video (for some reason it won’t embed).

SWAT Raids 78 Y.O. Grandma | Jury Awards $3.7 MILLION!
About a year ago I posted footage of Denver Police SWAT raiding the home of a 78 year old grandmother, based solely on a guy claiming that his “Find My iPhone” app showed his stolen truck at her home. Since then, the lawsuit went to trial, and the jury awarded $3.7 Million.

Bad Cops Cost Taxpayers $1.9 million! Here’s Why…
You may remember the video that went viral showing police officers in Aurora, Colorado, holding a black family hostage in a parking lot outside the car. Supposedly the cops thought their car was stolen, based on their (the cops) mistake. The family filed a civil rights lawsuit and just settled for a whopping $1.9 Million Dollars. But, this will continue to happen. Here’s why…
Here’s my prior post on why it’s an unconstitutional policy for police departments to perform these types of detentions without specific information that is particular to the subjects being detained.
Cop Charged With Murder | Shoots “Suspicious Paint” Suspect
A LaSalle, Colorado police officer has been charged with second degree murder after he shot a man in a dollar store parking lot, during an investigation about a car’s suspicious paint job.

Here’s the uncensored use of force clip:
Funny Drunk Guy Refuses Ticket | LAWSUIT
Andru Kulas was arrested by the Fort Collins Police Department in the early morning hours of August 29, 2021. He was pretty drunk and was expressing some criticism of the officers as they wrote him a citation for trespassing at a rooftop bar. When he refused the actual piece of paper, one of the officers attempted to shove it into his shirt pocket, which escalated the situation into the man being pepper sprayed at close range, among other things. He just filed a federal civil rights lawsuit.
Here’s the media coverage, including the raw bodycam footage.

How to Get Fired as a Cop in 3 Days
The Loveland Police Department has released bodycam footage for an incident in which former 28-year-old officer Russell Maranto hit a suspect who was in protective custody in May of this year. The rookie cop was fired three days later. Does it violate an arrestee/detainee’s constitutional rights to be hit by a police officer while handcuffed? What about if the person spits on the officer?
