There is a really nice memorial for Tim tomorrow in Palmer Lake at the library at 9am. They are dedicating a couple custom bike racks in his honor, and the mayor will speak. The Gazette will be covering this event. One bike rack will be at the library. The other will be at Rock House Ice Cream, where he once lived. I believe that was before it was an ice cream place.

There isn’t much outrage in the community. Every once in a while, someone says something. But not too often. It would be interesting to see what the mayor says. I doubt it will be me mentioned that Tim’s murder hasn’t been solved, not that a Memorial is the appropriate time.

TY Niner for all your updates. So 20 July he may go to Marion after the compliance hearing?

It sound like the Co custody hearing is being postponed till he gets there. JMO.
 
Hey Shiressleuth! Yes the update on 6/8 is pertaining to the hearing that was yesterday - same case#. Think he'll be "out" by August?
 
It is my understanding that the Hearing today June 8, 2018, is the Divorce between KN and DN.
Yesterday was the review of the child welfare status which a review appears to happen every 2- 3 months, the next hearing is Aug 14/18

I cannot see how a divorce can be finalised unless both parties show up so I would doubt this will be settled today unless DN has corresponded with the court.
MOO

Depends on whether Marion Co gives him jail time or not. I think he could be out and in Co by August, yes.

While we don't know for sure, I would imagine that due to his incarceration , DN does not have financial ability or access to a divorce attorney in order to contest a divorce.

It doesn’t really matter if it is contested. A judge can grant a divorce for any reason (s)he sees fit. Documented abuse alone is enough of a reason, and his ongoing incarceration is another reason. DN could contest it if he chose, but IMO there isn’t a judge out there who wouldn’t grant the divorce to her. She has clearly stated she’s aftraid of him, and there is documented abuse as well as his new menacing charges. Imagine the implications for a court system that didn’t grant KN a divorce, and then DN was later released and harmed her.

I also imagine that DCS would not grant custody of the kids, if they ever chose to do so, unless KN made a clear effort to divorce DN and completely rid him from the children’s lives. IMO if she were to receive custody again, divorce of DN would probably be a condition of that.
 
I understand that but just wonder why it is being postponed for another two months if it is uncontested?

I agree it should be cut and dried due to all the reasons you give, so why the delay?

Haven't seen anything in MSM yet about TW memorial you mentioned. Didn't the press cover it?

I was curious about the "Permanent Orders" part of the hearing and found these;

Colorado Divorce: The Permanent Orders Hearing | The Harris Law Firm P.C.

http://www.denverdivorceattorneyteam.com/permanent-orders-hearing/
 
can she testify against him now? is that still a thing? is it state to state? I cant remember..
I wonder if she can have the children, or if she is still in a shelter? Is she alienated from her family? can she recieve protective identity change and go underground?

really, if she knows anything at all, she is always going to have to watch her back because this guy has a vindictive nature as you can see in his car keying video.

even without the delphi murders, this story stands on it's own as a terrifying, careening nightmare of a ride across the country with little kids in the car.

I hope she knows at any time she can still go to the police if she is truly afraid.
