Hey man,
Usually some family and friends come out and make assinine statements defending perps like these?
Have we seen any of these yet, or have some been deleted?

I have not seen anyone tied to Dolloff taking his side other than his lawyer.

Unlicensed security guard Matthew Dolloff will be charged with murder in the 2nd degree
Unlicensed security guard Matthew Dolloff will be charged with murder in the 2nd degree
quote:
DENVER (KDVR) – Matthew Dolloff, the unlicensed security guard working with a 9NEWS reporting crew at a “Patriot Muster” in downtown Denver last week, will be charged with murder in the 2nd degree.
If convicted, this charge carries a mandatory prison sentence of between 16 and 48 years.
Photos from the event show Dolloff and the victim, Lee Keltner, facing off before the deadly shooting. According to the police narrative, Keltner had been involved in an argument with another man and at one point turned his attention toward Dolloff. Keltner hit Dolloff in the face and then within seconds discharged OC spray while Dolloff simultaneously fired one shot.
9NEWS said it had contracted with the security company Pinkerton for an unarmed guard. Pinkerton said it contracted with another company that employed Dolloff. However, there is no record of Dolloff as a licensed security guard in the City and County of Denver.

Great News! I will add it to OP.

Still waiting to see if there will be any further arrests or fallout from this... pretty sure that if a group of people plan a crime and a homicide occurs, the group gets charged (think robbery, etc).
Seems fairly evident that the media folks planned confrontations to film. If someone spills the beans on this, wouldn't it open up the entire group to charges?

2nd degree is the right move.
I think they'd have lost on 1st. Glad they recognized that.

quote:Agreed. No question that Dolloff’s actions meet the elements of 2nd Degree, leaving self-defense as the only real issue at the trial. Simplifies the prosecution markedly.

Plus, no prosecutor could have argued the elements of 1st Degree with a straight face. It really hurts your case in the eyes of the jury when you cannot even list the elements without a hearty guffaw.

I would think so. We have still have not heard from Helen who her guy was that she was asking where they were taking him.

I'm still not 100% that this is easy 2nd degree either, but I do think it's the right charge.

Section 18-3-102(1)(b) of the Colorado Revised Statutes (CRS) Title 18 of the Criminal Code outlines Colorado’s felony murder rule.

committing or attempting to commit one of the above-listed offenses, the person or one of the other persons involved in the commission or attempt to commit the same crime causes the death of another person not involved in the crime.
Maybe they could generate charges for some sort of conspiracy to commit a lesser offense.

caused the death of another person.

You can argue they were planning (or hoping for) a criminal assault, but criminal assault is NOT “ arson; robbery; burglary; kidnapping; or sexual assault.”
So they likely avoid BIG charges, as long as nobody reveals something like a conspiracy to commit murder.
I suspect lawsuits will still be incoming.

I suspect that much of his “training” consisted of standing before a mirror and practicing his quick-draw skills.

Right, and that's what I mean. There are a lot of indicators that he's done live fire training, even if it is just practicing shite he saw on YouTube in his back yard.
He trained himself to be proficient at the draw stroke and first shot, but doesn't appear to have bothered learning the most important elements of his job.

Not sure if this has been mentioned or not but in Denver you CANNOT conceal carry regardless if you have a license or not. So regardless, Dolloff is in violation of that. This guy is toast and deserves everything coming to him.
