A lot of the reporting out there is just bad these days. The park where the incident involving the runner took place was the one around Ketner Reservoir, which as you know also isn't in Arapahoe County or even close. He lived a couple of blocks west of Ketner and a couple blocks north of...

Thanks. I'd taken a break from WS because I really needed one after Sigg's arrest, but I realized he probably had an upcoming court date soon. I wanted to be prepared, mentally, for seeing his name in the paper again. Things are returning to normal in the area. A lot more people are out...

I agree. Also, if there's anything I've quite certain of at this point, it's that there are multiple people out there who are committing multiple crimes in the area. Also, if he couldn't successfully kidnap a 22-year-old jogger, I seriously doubt that he was able to kidnap a 38-year-old woman...

Just saw the story about the charges and it's just new horror each week, isn't it? Even if I despise Fox31 for being broadcasting and standing behind rumors and inaccurate information, I was really hopeful that when they reported "a source" told them he killed her right away that it was true...

I saw that today too. It gave me chills, as did the report (in the other story about the case, iirc) about the 11-year-old girl who reported a "creepy teenager" but not at Ketner--at a park in the neighborhood just south of Countryside. I ran through that park this afternoon and reminded...

? Colorado Springs is not "the area" when one is talking about Westminster/Arvada or even "north/northwest Denver 'burbs." Pueblo is not "the area." And the rest of the attempts are unsolved and likely by two or three different people who the police haven't caught. Whether the truth comes...

I just read through a few pages and have to stop. As a member of the Westminster community, I feel sick about what happened to Jessica. I feel sick that a 17-year-old is accused of committing the crime. These are both awful things. I don't like to think that either 10-year-olds can be...

No. It's a scheduled early release day in Jeffco, for ALL Jeffco elementary schools.

Yeah, I was waiting to pick up my child at school as the press conference was taking place and thinking about that. My assumption is that killers in these types of cases are 20-40 yo white men. That was the way it used to work. I think the cultural of violence has changed and we as a...

BBM. Why do you say he wears a cap to look younger? The Westy PD press release says this:

Free bus service would be nice, but there's no money for it and not enough buses to suddenly accommodate all the students in the Westminster/Arvada area. High school kids are volunteering to help get kids to school in her neighborhood and many of the surrounding ones...

It's not a big step from there to say "I don't understand how any woman can walk around her neighborhood alone" or "I don't understand how any woman can walk from the store to her car alone." Women have been assaulted or abducted from store parking lots, from parking garages, while waiting to...

That used to be true, yes, but times have changed. The Denver Post of five years ago was a far better paper than what they're producing today--probably because they had competition. Since the Rocky Mountain News closed, the Post is the only game in town--and yet the paper is smaller, more...

The Denver Post article information about the friend and walking to school was completely new this morning. It is the first time media has reported that Jessica was to meet a friend but to meet him at his house. The Post was also very specific that her route to her friend's house was 1000 feet...

What kind of insect activity? We don't have that much insect activity to begin with, at least compared to the midwest or out east, but there are still bugs crawling around out there--spiders at least. I wish the frost would have finished them off.
