Join No Concentration Camps in Colorado for our first highway cleanup day. In exchange for keeping the highway clean and litter free, CDOT will provide us with 2 permanent signs.

This is not only a great opportunity to help improve a community while raising awareness for an important issue, but an opportunity to network with other activists who are working to prevent Big Horn from opening. We ask that people not bring signs as there are some rules we have to follow per CDOT and we can’t be a distraction to drivers.

CDOT also asks that any volunteers please watch the videos here before attending the cleanup: https://www.codot.gov/programs/adopt-a-highway/videos

Hey friends

super short notice but worth a shot, just wanted to remind people activists are holding a sit in against police violence and calling for the removal of the chief of police. more people the better.

NSPM-7 Defendants Union plans to offer legal clinics, media training and more to people facing prosecution for protest.

Early union members include anti-ICE protesters arrested in Minnesota, New Jersey and Texas, and protesters in solidarity with Palestine arrested in Michigan during the second Trump administration, as well as others from the movement against the Atlanta police training center known as Cop City.

But the group also hopes to include those who have taken part in protests across a range of other issues, including Tesla Takedowns against Elon Musk and his company, against the construction of datacenters and in solidarity with Palestine. It also welcomes anyone who publicly opposes “the Trump agenda and want[s] to support those facing repression for doing the same”, according to the union’s website.

I’m interested in putting together a group of caring people who can work together to understand the impending rollout of delivery drones in Denver, and advocate for regulation of or a full ban on those drones. Wal-Mart has announced plans to launch their program in 2027, and other companies appear to be gearing up as well.

If you’re interested in organizing with me, reach out at [DroneFreeDenver@protonmail.com](mailto:DroneFreeDenver@protonmail.com).

Depending on response, I’ll send an email to everyone in the next week with next steps.

No Kings is almost here and we are so ready! Swing by Saturday 10/17 from 10–12 at Grandview & Wadsworth for a high‑energy morning of resistance, community, and good trouble. Let’s make some joyful noise and show up strong!

Remember to vote early!

Public execution of a US citizen? No! This is not who we are. Call your congress people. Demand that that they stand up and say NO. This barbaric action cannot happen.

At Aurora city council this upcoming Monday!

after seeing the reaction of new york communities after the shooting of the man in nyc yesterday, i am baffled on the response denver keeps giving. no response from anyone.

the excuses i keep seeing is why we keep getting walked all over. we don’t need a “gathering” or a “parade” every 3 months and think that’s enough. things are getting scarier and scarier day by day.

why are we protesting the government at the government approved protests?

why are we shaming others?

why aren’t we waking up?

why are we tolerating this?

is there a reason nobody showed up or participated today? I really don’t understand. There was a scheduled walk out at the denver campus that never happened, I didn’t see anything else scheduled. What’s going on? Kinda feels like we’re just done

But thankfully people aren't horses. The election is coming up and this is the time to have conversations. Speak with your coworkers, your family members, your friends, and even passersby about what's going on, and what's being decided this November. Sometimes it can feel that striking up a conversations is HARDER than hitting the streets, I get that.

I'm not saying to pester random strangers in the grocery store, but there is great power in a normal conversation. This whole "democracy" thing works best when we refuse to quietly relegate real problems to specific times and places. And if the election and it's outcomes aren't your be-all and end-all (as is the case for me), then there is still a lot of great opportunities for everybody to lead these conversations towards community resilience and co-operation beyond each election cycle.

If you're checked out on voting, that's your situation and circumstance. This year I'm checked in. I was a single month too young to vote in 2016 when everything went to shit. I remember that feeling of helplessness, and like a lot of us, I sometimes wonder how life would be had Trump not risen to power. It's ten years later now, and that whole experience sucked. Now we have to think about the next ten years, and what power we have to shape that decade this November. I know. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.

Thankfully we're not horses. We can shake hands, and share stories, together. Now is the time to make that happen.

Take care, and may the next decade in Denver, and Colorado make this past decade look like fiction.

I created a three part (short form) deep dive on Missy Woods and her impact on Denver survivors and all Colorado sex assault cases. CBI is still refusing to retest her work on 4,722 SA cases even after Denver Crime Lab found evidence indicating that Woods wrongfully deleted DNA data for potentially thousands of kits.

The Denver Mayor’s Office and Police Chief have delayed the release of the full Woods Report for almost a year. It was supposed to be released to the public last November. Without it, we don’t know the full scope of her misconduct on sex assault cases.

What we do know is that 13 kits were retested by Denver. These were representative of her work over the course of her career and analysts controlled for advancements in lab technology.

Of those 13 kits which Woods had previously recorded as having “no DNA”, 11 DNA samples were found. Of those 11, 6 returned “hits” in CODIS for potential serial offenders.

CBI has always claimed that Woods only manipulated DNA in less than 1% of sex assault cases. But Denver’s retesting indicates that number is closer to 84%. With 47% matching to potential serial offenders.

CBI never retested her work. They simply reviewed it for “anomalies” in which she entered DNA then failed to do a proper subsequent step or deleted/altered the DNA quantity to avoid further testing. But Woods admitted to “dry labbing” which is when she recorded she tested a sample and found no DNA but she never actually ran the test.

Those kits would not register as an “anomaly”. They would be undetectable as a concern in CBI’s cursory review. They’d have to retest her work to determine how many kits contain DNA that she said didn’t.

That is why Denver requested 1300 kits back from CBI to retest. Until they get federal funding to retest all of her work, all we have is this small test sample of 13 kits. But the results from this representative, controlled sample are extremely concerning.

Woods was given a plea deal and sentenced to 10 years last month without a single victim being notified of her impact on their case. No victims were allowed to speak at her sentencing and the Court did not consider her devastating impact on thousands of victims in her punishment.

I’m hoping these videos can raise awareness of this scandal to survivors who were wrongly told no DNA was found and encourage elected officials to force CBI to retest her work so victims can be notified and given the chance to pursue justice in whatever form they choose.

***There’s a woman who says she’s a survivor who has acted as an aggressive lobbyist for CBI for the last 19 months. She tends to oppose my public comments on CBI’s coverup of the Woods scandal. If she comments or messages mods with claims that what I’m saying is unfounded, just let me know what I can provide to back up my claims and I’ll respond asap with receipts.

I have emails, texts, and articles documenting everything I’m saying in writing directly with CBI leadership, the DA’s team that prosecuted Woods, and legislators. And I’m happy to share with mods. The videos also explain more of my personal involvement and how I know this information. But feel free to comment below with any questions and I’ll respond with clarification as needed.
