LEGISLATORS SEEK 'NO-KNOCK' CURBS
Mar. 18 - State legislators want to clamp down on "no-knock" raids by
police, such as the botched bust in September in which Denver police killed
a 45-year-old Mexican national.
Sen. Jim Congrove, R-Arvada, will introduce a bill Monday requiring
prosecutors to approve police requests for no-knock warrants and making it
harder to get a judge to issue one.
"The way they do this is unbelievable," said Congrove, a former police
officer who used to run an undercover narcotics unit. "With the passage of
this legislation, a key component of accountability would be put in place."
