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)

Day 10 of MyPillowGuy Mike Lindell’s election rigging defamation trial in Denver began with a failed attempt by Lindell’s team to bring him back to the stand. US District Court Judge Nina Wang rejected that saying Lindell had covered the issue at hand in his 2+ days in the stand.
The defense then rested and, outside the presence of the jury, asked the judge to toss the defamation cases against Lindell’s companies, FrankSpeech and MyPillow.
The defense again argued that Lindell wasn’t reckless with his election rigging claims. “They’re trying to hold Mr Lindell to the standard of a PhD. He has a high school education,”attorney Chris Kachouroff said. “He did the best he could.”

Day 8 of MyPillow Guy Mike Lindell’s election rigging defamation trial in Denver begins. Lindell is on the stand for a third day. The judge is expected to rule on the admissibility of clips from Lindell’s election conspiracy theory documentaries. Image
I’d like to take this moment to express my thanks to my pillow, not to be confused with MyPillow. The wood benches in federal court are like something out of an 1800s church, the kind where you hear more about God’s wrath than God’s love. This pillow has literally saved my a—. Image
Jurors heard video testimony from Dennis Montgomery, who claims to have created a software program used by the CIA to rig elections worldwide. He says Lindell bought it from him for $1.5M. A deep dive on Montgomery's infamous, well-chronicled history: reuters.com/investigates/s…

This morning one of my girls put maple syrup on the dog. And that might not be the most bizarre thing I witness today. Day 7 of MyPillow Guy Mike Lindell’s election rigging defamation trial in Denver begins shortly. Lindell is still on the stand. Image
Reminder: I try to relay key moments in the trial, but I am not logging every development here. For that, check out my talented colleague @TheMarissaSol’s rolling coverage here: 9news.com/article/news/p…
Lindell’s counsel is trying to guide him through how he came to believe elections are rigged. Lindell is being constantly scolded by the judge for not directly answering questions and going on monologues.

Day 6 of MyPillow guy Mike Lindell‘s election rigging defamation trial in Denver begins now. Lindell is expected to take the stand today. On Friday, jurors heard testimony from a cyber security analyst who said he was punished when he challenged Lindell’s claims.
For those curious, the featured item of the day being sold to support Lindell is the king size pillow. The MyCross necklace also remains 50% off. Image

Mike Lindell is on the stand in his election rigging defamation trial. Lindell says he’s drained his entire fortune chasing claims of election rigging. “I went from a net worth of $50M to $10M in the hole and I’ve lost everything,” Lindell said.

We expect testimony today from Joe Oltmann, the Colorado GOP power player and podcaster who originated the claim that Denver-based Dominion Voting Systems and its exec Eric Coomer rigged the 2020 election.
Oltmann has attacked US District Judge Nina Wang as part of "a rotten fraternity of evil doers" "single handedly trying to put her fingers on the scales of justice." This morning, Oltmann called Coomer’s legal team “piece of shit liars.” Image

NEW: A statement from Colorado Secretary of State @JenaGriswold (D) moves closer to taking responsibility for her office's leak of voting machine passwords. "I am regretful for this error," Griswold said in the statement. #copolitics
@JenaGriswold Griswold told 9NEWS last week that only her office was investigating her office's security breach. @GovOfCo Polis (D) called for an outside investigation. Griswold's office now says it has retained "a well-regarded law firm to conduct an outside investigation."
The SOS's office did not name the outside law firm. I've asked. They say Griswold's office "will release any findings as the law permits." Colorado open records law has broad carve-outs that could block the release of most or all of the probe. I've asked if they'll do that.
