Aurora Sentinel: Aurora, Denver and police agencies across the state have shown that transparency in how law enforcement operates, and especially when a life is lost during police intervention, is critical to the public’s trust.
Senate Bill 26-290 moved that important goal ahead, and Gov. Jared Polis should sign it.
Contrary to the claims of critics, SB 290 isn’t radical, or anti-police or a way to stymie law enforcement investigations.
It is a long-overdue recognition that when someone dies at the hands of police, families and the public deserve timely, factual information instead of bureaucratic stonewalling, selective narratives and endless delays.
