Update, 12/16: Part 2 is now available as well.
Rossputin performs a great service with a two-part, in-depth investigation of the “Federal corruption and cover-up in the prosecution of Cory Voorhis.” Part 1 is released this morning — for those less familiar with the story, Rossputin does a thorough job summarizing events. In addition, he introduces a lot of evidence I haven’t seen before that shows in detail how the case against Cory Voorhis was corrupted.
Excellent work all in all. And its release coinciding with the news of Stephanie Villafuerte’s withdrawn nomination for U.S. Attorney, the report is extremely fresh and timely.

I hope part II is about *state* corruption in the Voorhis persecution/prosecution. Several bad actors here: Bill (“Tax”) Ritter, and in the Denver DA’s office, Mitch Morrissey, Chuck Lefley and Lynn Kimbrough. Possible corruption too in the Denver police. As Peter Boyles notes, this is possible the biggest corruption scandal in the State of Colorado ever. It’s at least the biggest one in recent memory.
Go get ’em, Ross!

Thanks for this informative piece. What will happen next remains to be seen. What’s gratifying is “the little people”, “the voter”, and “the concerned citizen” still have a voice. Colorado citizens made a difference when they witnessed the persecution of Cory Voorhis and will no longer tolerate corruption; not only in Colorado but throughout the country. Hopefully, justice will be served and Ice Agent Voorhis will be reinstated with full benefits and legal bills paid.
