Larimer County Sheriff Justin Smith says the request by Holmes is a fraud and a classic example of how the controversial new law can be abused. A petition can only be filed by a law enforcement officer or family member, under the red flag law. Holmes is claiming she shares ties to a child with Cpl. Morris in the petition.
The Colorado State University Police Department sent the following statement to 11 News on Cpl. Morris:
"Colorado State University Police Department Cpl. Morris is not on leave and continues to serve in his capacity as a peace officer at CSU, and continues to lawfully carry his weapons. He does not share a child with Susan Holmes. |

He gets the benefit of the doubt, but will you or I?
Look for a lot more unhappy wives and girlfriends requesting filing unjust petitions for revenge. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
