Jo Scott is the truest of believers when it comes the fight against abortion rights — so much so that she’s repeatedly violated both state and federal laws designed to protect clinic visitors. But the level of harassment will presumably be modified now that a settlement with the Justice Department…
Lucky Stefanie Dickinson: The former Ellicott school board member has gotten to pose for two mug shots in the span of a month. The first time, Dickinson was busted for allegedly sexting a teen. And the latest? She’s being accused of sexually assaulting a teen three years ago…
Long Island-resident Varoujan Khodjamirian’s flight home from the Denver area was presumably uneventful — maybe because a judge ordered him to forego alcohol on the way back. Why this edict? Because Khodjamirian’s previous time in the air devolved into a drunken, death-threat-filled tirade that required the jet that carried him…
Update: The Denver coroner’s office has now positively identified the man killed by police following a robbery attempt at a cell-phone store as Mark Sepulveda — the suspect in the September murder of Juan Carlos in Lakewood.

In May 2010, we told you about Lafayette psychic Nancy Marks, who allegedly told clients that “money is evil” before taking around $300,000 of it from them. Yesterday, she was finally slated to go to trial over the charges against her. But — what a coincidence! — she checked herself…
If you had virtually unlimited access to merchandise via counterfeit credit cards, would you go to… Arby’s? Carl Hughes, Tyrea Taylor and Larry Coates did, according to an indictment on view below — and they’re accused of making plenty of other stops as well. Total estimated bill: $200,000-plus…
Update: On October 18, Johnny Hockaday, 28, will be formally advised of the accusations against him — and there are plenty of them.

The legal maneuverings continue in the case of Joshua Carrier, a former Colorado Springs cop who’s charged with nearly 200 incidents of sexual assault on children. He had easy access to kids, given that he was a school resource officer and volunteer wrestling coach…
Update: Here’s an interesting twist on the story of alleged mother-daughter bank robbers busted in Westminster yesterday. Mom Norma Sisneros was portrayed as the getaway driver for her daughter, Tina Guerrero. But Sisneros now says she didn’t realize what the hell Guerrero was doing…
If police are right, 31-year-old Kathy Johnson’s imagination is not only active, but filled with hidden (read: invisible) dangers. Johnson is accused of a series of false reports about ominous threats — all of which appear to have been directed at her by her…
Kids grow up so fast these days — but that doesn’t mean they’re ready to hit the road in the family car. Which explains why police have charged Lori Rogers for letting her nine-year-old daughter drive passengers that included a ten-month-old…
Rose Ann Santistevan hardly fits the profile of a drug kingpin. She’s 71 years old and suffers from emphysema. So when police burst into her home as part of a narcotics investigation dubbed Operation Jeez Luis, she did what anyone in her position would do: She had a heart attack…
Update: Last week, a man later identified as Alonzo Bencomo, 34, was shot and killed near 250 South Osceola. Today, Bencomo’s family and friends will gather for a visitation and rosary in advance of a funeral tomorrow. Here’s how they’re remembering him in an online listing…
David Berkowitz, 63, was once an enrollment director at the University of Phoenix, as well as a jewelry store owner in Aspen. But he’s also alleged to have had a jones for heroin — one that cops say led an associate working for him to kill a man as they…
If the allegations against Eric Barney are true, boyfriends don’t get much worse. Barney is suspected of kidnapping, false imprisonment and more for allegedly holding his girlfriend hostage and abusing her regularly over a two-month span…
The story of Mark Rubinson and Robert Young, who allegedly tried to reenact Weekend at Bernie’s with their dead friend, Jeff Jarrett, was already plenty weird. Now, add to it Young’s claim that he thought Jarrett was only drunk, Rubinson’s court no-show and — the latest — his obsession with…

Update: At first blush, a bias-motivated crime allegation seemed like a real stretch in the case of CU student Thomas Frank Ross — and at second and third blush, too. But while the Boulder District Attorney’s Office has decided against leveling this charge against Ross, he’s not off the hook…
Until last year, John Diaz was a Denver police officer. He resigned in the middle of an excessive-force investigation aimed at him and a fellow cop — one in which his actions were ultimately found to be justified, more or less. But now, he’s back in the spotlight for a…
On February 23, 2010 at Deer Creek Middle School, a facility just a short drive from Columbine High School, Bruco Eastwood lifted a rifle and opened fire on students, seriously wounding two of them. But a jury has found him innocent of all charges other than possessing a weapon on…
