Dem DA in Colorado “Recalled” for Releasing a Trans Pedo who Tried to Kidnap a Boy
According to the NY Post, a Democratic prosecutor in Colorado “will be recalled’’ for moving to dismiss charges against a transgender sex offender accused of trying to kidnap a boy from a schoolyard!
The district attorney’s office in Colorado’s 18th Judicial District told local TV affiliate Fox31 that it is planning to drop the charges against Solomon Galligan, 33, after he allegedly attempted to snatch the 11-year-old during recess at Black Forest Hills Elementary School in Aurora in April 2024.
Galligan underwent a competency evaluation after his arrest and was found “mentally incompetent,” the DA’s office said.
Prosecutors said they’re now “planning to drop charges against the defendant, which is required by law when they are found mentally incompetent to stand trial.”
But Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky disputed that stance and told The Post an “effort” to “recall” Democratic DA Amy Padden “is well under way and will begin this week” — and ensured that it will be successful.
“The conduct of the 18th DA over the past six months is beyond deplorable. This is simply the icing on the cake,” said Jurinsky, a Republican.
“The progressive attitude will not be tolerated,” she said. “While certain state laws highlight deeper issues in the state of Colorado, Amy Padden will be recalled for her part in not upholding the laws and punishing criminals.”
The suspected sex fiend’s older sister, Sarah Galligan, even told the local news in April 2024 that her brother has been in and out of jail for 12 years and that it’s not safe for the community or him to be out on the streets.
She said her sibling, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder when he was 16, was deemed unfit to stand trial in previous instances and wasn’t institutionalized because of a shortage of beds in mental health centers.
“It just really sucks he had to do something so eye-catching for everybody to see he’s not well, and he’s not OK to be out and be on his own,” she said at the time.
Amanda Morris, Solomon’s niece, added, “This has been like the fourth time that we’re sitting here thinking, ‘How the hell did he get released? Who’s letting him out?’ “
Solomon Galligan shared the news of his gender transition in a 2011 Facebook post and later identified as a woman. That same year, he was placed on the sex offender registry after he was convicted of non-consensual sexual contact.
During his latest alleged crime, Galligan was captured on surveillance video approaching students playing in a field just moments before they scattered and screamed, “Stranger danger!”
Galligan allegedly grabbed one of the youngsters but lost his grip when he tripped on a white blanket he was carrying, according to a police report. Galligan fled the scene but was located by cops at a nearby Walgreens.
From the Denver news: “Prosecutors said Solomon Galligan remains, in the eyes of the courts, mentally incompetent to proceed to trial. He will not be released to the public, they said.” According to the Denver News: ““When a defendant is found mentally incompetent to proceed and is being civilly committed for mental health treatment, we are legally obligated to dismiss charges,” said 18th Judicial District Attorney spokesperson Eric Ross. Ross said his office intends to only release Galligan to an unnamed mental health facility.”
I think Bill needs to go beyond the NYPost and other tabloids, or perhaps wait till the dust settles, to make his fabulous claims.
Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky will lose her November election. She only won by 2 points, a couple thousand votes, and has been a vicious obstructionist ever since. Good luck.
There is the issue of this guy being released previously, like 3 times, and that they let him go for lack of a room at a mental facility is another issue that should continue to be investigated. And IF that’s what happens this time, the DA should be removed, or worse.
But we do not remove people for following the law unless you are Trump.
Dunger loves perverts.
Said Dunger.
You just don’t get it, Andy. It’s OK, I blame the education system and your parents.
Twas not me: I sourced the Denver Post, it was actually the Gazette, my bad. But hey, attack the danger. After all, you’re not capable of beating me in debate on the issues, using facts, citing sources, debating like a gentleman. Instead, you do that. Sigh. Worthless.
This shit, like Andy, gets so boring. Can’t anyone, including the authors, on PBP have a decent debate, discussion, duologue, instead of name-calling, stupid, personal attacks and absolutely nothing on topic. Maybe the PBP writers attract a certain breed……..
