Starkey was picked up by the police yesterday at her listed residence on Williams Street after she supposedly attacked a man whose name was redacted from court documents but who is apparently her partner. According to the arrest report, the two have been living apart, with the noted victim living at the Williams address. After Starkey arrived at the apartment yesterday and found the man eating lunch, the two began arguing and Starkey demanded he leave. She allegedly punched the victim several times on the shoulder and “then scratched him on the right cheek causing a small laceration.”
Starkey was charged with assault and spent the night in Denver City Jail. At her arraignment today in Denver County Court, she posted a $3,000 bond, and she’ll be back on July 14 for an 8 a.m. jury trial. In the meantime, she’ll have to deal with the assault charge associated with her former student Kirkpatrick; she’s due in District Court for a disposition hearing on that matter on Tuesday, May 27, at 1:30 p.m. – Joel Warner
