Denver, Colorado (KDVR) – In the midst of the huge accumulated actions of sexual assault groups, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, and Fox31 is now learning that the state will pay the crime laboratory in Denver to respond to the testing groups.
CBI contains a file Dashboard Show the sexual assault tool group at the time of transformation as it changes from month to month. In the last census, published on March 31, CBI is witnessing a accumulation of more than 1,400 cases with an estimated 558 -day transformation.
CBI believes that this accumulation will begin to shrink in July. The Agency plans to use external sources of about 1,000 sets of private laboratory for this spring to another.
Now, Denver Police confirmed to Fox31 that the Denver Crime Laboratory will return about 100 groups of the current CBI accumulation. These groups are one of the cases that originated in Denver.
“The state will compensate Denver at the same rate that we were able to appreciate with other vendors of $ 2000 per case,” said Jenny Wilford, state actress Jenny Welford. “This not only guarantees that the Denver Crime Laboratory has additional financial resources, but it also requires some work from the Colorado Bureaucraft and the effort made to clarify the accumulation. I am really encouraging from this decision and arrangement and I think it will be good for the survivors currently in the back.”
In January, Wilford publicly shared her pain as a victim of sexual assault, pending the test of her tool group in the midst of this accumulation. She tells us that she is now no longer waiting.
“It was really painful,” said MP Wilford. “I feel that the survivors are asking the survivors to continue to wait at each turn and the extent that the waiting request becomes such a huge trigger. It seems as if you were frozen in time. You can’t go forward.”
“The accumulation of two or more years to do the DNA is completely unacceptable,” said the former provincial lawyer of Denver Mitch Morris. “Therefore, let’s see that the state is doing something about it and putting their money where their mouth is really important because Denver should have done these cases to start. But they did not provide them with any money to do so.”
Moressy held the position of lawyer of Denver Province from 2005 to 2017. During that time, the state law changed until all sexual assault groups are tested, even if there is a very small chance to prosecute. Change pushed police stations to send several groups to CBI to test in cases that may not end with trials.
Moresi said: “We rarely saw a case in which we went to the court that the Central Bank of Iraq had done the work because they were doing work in the non -fortified rape groups.” “The legislature has never understood that some rape groups do not lead to prosecution because the man says:” You will find my DNA there because I have sex with the woman. “So there was a degree of problems with the original legislation in that they do not know the nuances of rape groups.”
In addition to the use of external sources of 1000 groups, CBI currently train 15 DNA scientists to double its employees from DNA from 16 to 31. Training takes 1 to two years. CBI plans to reach the 90 -day transformation goal by the spring of 2027 with these measures.
