The Denver Gazette: The nine shootings involving officers throughout Denver metro stretching from Lakewood to Arapahoe County since April 29 underscored police departments’ differences in their levels of responses to media inquiries and in their policies governing the release of body camera footages.

Some, including the families of individuals shot by officers, do not believe the response is clear enough. Police officials said it’s a balancing act.
