Letters to the Editor

In retrospect, I believe the private companies are doing what the legislature wanted, although perhaps not entirely exactly as envisioned. But that's the excitement of life!

In his October 31 "Deeper Into Columbine," Alan Prendergast referred to an Arapahoe County investigator's interview with a young woman named Sarah Cudworth, who claimed to have known gunman Eric Harris and another Columbine student, Robert Craig, who also committed suicide. Many details contained in the investigator's report are disputed by Cudworth, who contacted Westword after the article was published.

According to Cudworth, the investigator misquoted her: "I was not introduced to Eric Harris by Robert Craig, nor is there any connection between the two. Robert Craig's name came up in connection with what seemed to be a large number of students falling to tragedy in such a short period of time from that high school. I in no way had any knowledge of anything involving the Columbine case, and was only interviewed after my name somehow came up in connection to Eric's. I did not know either Eric Harris or Dylan Klebold well and had only met and spoke with them briefly on a few occasions. The detective who interviewed me (who was female) seemed to realize that I was a 'dead end' for their case and that I knew nothing of any value. It was for this reason that I was not interviewed again."
