This is Desiree Gallimore, who goes by “Dez” — and it’s appropriate she’s got a nickname of her own, since she’s been charged alongside the Packer brothers, aka “Chrome” and “Jazz,” in a disturbing child prostitution case. Chrome is only one of the alleged lawbreakers featured in our April mug-shot…
Justin Wayne Lamb, 29, has the sort of ink that makes him an unlikely candidate for an office job. Not only do his tats cover the majority of territory on his head and neck (as well as his chest, which provides home for a swastika) — but the one on…
Lawyers for Aurora theater shooting gunman James Holmes have until May 5 to ask the Colorado Supreme Court to review a decision by Judge Carlos Samour to have Holmes undergo a second sanity evaluation.

Members of the armed services face enough threats on the job that their home life should be a safe haven. But that certainly doesn’t appear to be the case for one Fort Carson soldier. A criminal complaint against her civilian husband, Mitchell Gibson, documents years of abuse and punishment capped…
This past October, we told you about sex-assault charges against Bojan Vuckovic and Dennis Hanson, a pair of Fort Collins men accused of getting two girls drunk and violently raping them. Vuckovic was subsequently convicted, but only of supplying alcohol to minors — an outcome so shocking that a group…
Earlier this week, we posted about the ten Denver neighborhoods where you’re most likely to get your car stolen, using Denver Police Department data from 2009 to 2013 obtained by Fox31. But that was only one of several offenses for which figures are available. Today, our focus is aggravated assault,…
There’s one fewer entry on the Larimer County Sheriff’s Office most wanted list. Earlier this week, Jason Sullivan, 32, was reportedly busted while in possession of a stolen car. But that leaves plenty of other wanted suspects on the loose. Look below to count down the top twenty, featuring mug…
Last November, we told you about marijuana raids conducted at multiple cannabis businesses, including VIP Wellness — which (update) was reportedly raided again yesterday — by law enforcers from the DEA, IRS and Denver Police Department. This morning, Hector Diaz, a 49-year-old from Colombia, is due in court to be…
Earlier this month, we broke down the number of crimes in one Denver neighborhood — ours — and discovered there had been 23 over the course of eleven days. Now, Fox31 has taken this concept a step further by using Denver Police Department records to discover the Denver neighborhoods with…
University Hill in Boulder is heavily populated by students who attend classes on the nearby University of Colorado campus — and plenty of them are terrified by a recent sex crime even though local police have made an arrest in the case. Why? For one thing, Brandon Heginger, the man…
George Roloff was arrested nearly three years ago. So why has it taken so long for a jury to convict him of 37 counts in a bizarre crime spree that only ended after an hours-long SWAT-team standoff? Because there were questions about his competency to stand trial owing to reported…
Ever since the shootings at Columbine High School, which took place fifteen years ago this past Sunday, school administrators have tended to take any student threats very seriously.

As we’ve reported, the metro area has seen a slew of hit-and-runs lately. But an incident that took the life of 29-year-old Joshua Stewart may be the most bizarre. Prosecutors believe Stewart was clinging to the side of a van when Cynthia Marie Vigil pried off his fingers — after…
Georgia’s James Lee Pierce, a convicted child molester, allegedly spent months grooming an underage teen for sex before he could round up the money for a trip to Colorado in order to get his swerve on. Imagine his distress upon learning that his illicit dream girl turned out to be…
Following Richard Kirk’s alleged murder of wife Kristine Kirk (see our previous coverage below), most of the attention has focused on the question of whether a marijuana edible had caused the hallucinations and erratic behavior that resulted in her tragic death. But partly lost in this debate has been a…
During an attack on a fifteen-year-old Littleton girl, Xavier McDaniel allegedly told her, “Get ready to die.” Instead, she fought back, surviving the attack despite sustaining fearsome injuries. And now, McDaniel, 22, could spend the rest of his life in prison for a crime committed while he was out on…
This Sunday thousands of ganja enthusiasts will gather in Denver’s Civic Center for what has become an annual rite of spring, the embrace of cannabis culture at 4:20 on 4/20. But this weekend also marks the peculiar collision of several more somber anniversaries, commemorating some of the worst days this…
Big Al’s Burgers and Dogs has an attribute unique in Fort Collins and, probably, on planet Earth — a series of paintings that pay tribute to characters from the iconic ’80s/’90s sitcom Full House. So you can imagine the heartbreak when someone stole the portrait depicting Joey Gladstone, portrayed by…
Update: During our last update about the tragic murder of Kristine Kirk (see our previous coverage below), we shared a probable-cause statement that made no mention of marijuana use by Richard Kirk, Kristine’s husband, who’s accused of killing her, despite multiple reports from law-enforcement sources to that effect. Now, however,…
Update below: The online profile of Justin Jay Hatfield suggests that he’s among the unlikeliest kidnapping-and-sex assault suspects ever. Most of the recent posts on his Facebook page highlight paintings by Vincent Van Gogh and a YouTube video shows him singing opera. Yet the Colorado Springs Police Department has named…
Most of us tend to hear about major crimes in Denver. But what about the lower-profile offenses, such as robberies, burglaries and assaults? A website called RAIDS Online tracks them in a number of Colorado cities, including Denver — and there are plenty of them. We looked at the quadrant…
