NEW: Aurora Police aren't yet telling the public what officers are seen doing in photos back at the spot where #ElijahMcClain was restrained. Chief Wilson learned of photos last Thu., before weekend protests. IA probe ended today. Only acknowledged when it leaked to media. #9NEWS
The timeline is important because we now know that, prior to the protests and the use-of-force during the violin vigil, Aurora Police:

- knew these photos existed
- were investigating the officers involved
- knew it was possible the public would eventually find out
We'll also be asking @AuroraMayorMike if he knew of the photos being investigated and when he learned of them. We were scheduled to interview him today about APD's use-of-force at the violin vigil but he canceled and directed us to the police chief. 9news.com/article/news/l…
Chief Wilson's statement tonight commits to releasing the IA investigation "in its entirety," including "photographic evidence obtained" so it looks like they'll be made public. An APD spokeswoman said tonight that the release process, pending appeals, could take days/weeks.
Wilson became interim chief of APD when the previous interim chief retired in the face of an internal affairs investigation of his role in the handling of an APD officer found blackout drunk and armed behind the wheel of his patrol car on duty. 9news.com/article/news/i…
The drunk-on-duty APD officer wasn't fired and was not charged with a crime because of the way evidence was (and wasn't) collected. Wilson became interim chief promising transparency and asking the public "to give me the opportunity to move forward and to gain that trust back."
Our @Jordan_Chavez interviewed Chief Wilson today. We didn't know about the photos and investigation yet so we didn't ask her. She didn't volunteer the information. (end thread)

Much is being said about when/where Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will do in-depth interviews. LOCAL JOURNALISTS: Prepare now, not after your outlet suddenly lands an interview with a national newsmaker. What issues of local importance/national significance will you discuss? (1/8)
National newsmakers sometimes turn to local journalists for interviews perceived as less challenging, with interviewers unprepared to discuss issues with depth and context. But local journalists can and should do thoughtful, meaningful interviews with national newsmakers. (2/8)
Prepare now. Who on your team will conduct the interview? Are they willing and prepared to respectfully push back and seek clarity on unclear or off-topic answers? Will they fact-check? How will you make the best use of what will likely be very limited time? (3/8)

NEW: Rep. Lauren Boebert claims credit for projects in Colorado even when she votes against the bills funding them. Boebert said in our #CO4 debate that she would still have voted no if she was the deciding vote, killing those projects she claims credit for now. #copolitics
#CO4 candidate Deborah Flora has called for parents to pull their kids from public elementary/middle schools. @cologop recently told parents to pull kids from all public schools. I asked Flora what America would be like without public education. She wouldn't directly answer.
#CO4 candidate State Rep Mike Lynch says he did not make a mistake in judgment in not disclosing his drunk driving arrest to his Republican colleagues when they were electing him House Minority Leader. He resigned after it became public.

NEW: Former Trump attorney @JennaEllisEsq agrees to a three-year suspension of her Colorado law license for a felony guilty plea in Georgia for attempting to overturn the 2020 election results. #copolitics
@JennaEllisEsq "Attorneys are often disbarred after being convicted of a felony, particularly where the conviction flows from criminal acts committed while acting as an attorney," the stipulation reads. "However, disbarment is not automatic, even for felony convictions."
@JennaEllisEsq "While disbarment is the presumptive sanction for [Ellis'] misconduct, it is significant that her criminal culpability was due to her conduct as an accessory, not as a principal," the stipulation says.

NEW: @msudenver says its own police force ziptied doors when protesters were in Tivoli Hall, not protesters. MSU Denver President Janine Davidson made the false claim in a public message to the community. #copolitics
@msudenver MSU Denver's false claim that protesters had locked doors with zipties came in a note from the President titled: "Protesters escalate tactics." This comes after @DenverPolice said that they would not sweep the pro-Palestinian encampment on the quad unless the situation escalated. Image
@msudenver @DenverPolice The false claim about protesters ziptying doors was removed from the MSU Denver's online statement without note or correction. After 9NEWS inquired, an online correction notice was added. The correction does not specify the source of the misinformation: @AurariaCampus Police. Image

NEW: #CO4 candidate State Rep @richard_holtorf unleashed a misogynist attack on GOP primary rival @laurenboebert today, saying Boebert dresses like a prostitute. "High heels, short skirt, low-cut blouse," Holtorf said on KNUS. "She needs to learn how to dress." #copolitics
Holtorf compared Boebert's outfits to prostitutes walking Colfax in Denver. "My five daughters, if they stood in front of me... dressed like Boebert, I would be disgusted," Holtorf said.
Holtorf is struggling to gain traction in a six-way GOP primary to replace Republican Ken Buck in Colorado's 4th Congressional District (DougCo, Loveland, Eastern Plains). Boebert holds an enormous fundraising and name ID advantage.
