HB 23-1249

HB 23-1249

Chief Haubert, along with metro area police chiefs held a press conference today at the State Capitol to inform the public of the effects of HB 23-1249. The bill, as written, would move all crimes committed by 10, 11 and 12-year-olds out of the juvenile court system, regardless of the charge, except for homicide. If the juvenile does not follow through on recommendations of treatment, accountability would fall to social services, not the court. The Colorado Association of Chiefs of Police, Sheriffs, and District Attorneys oppose HB 23-1249.

April 10th through the 16th is National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. NPSTW was launched in 1981 and occurs every year during the second week of April. This is a time to appreciate and celebrate the crucial work of public safety telecommunicators (sometimes referred to as 911 dispatchers). In a single shift, these professionals regularly transition from guiding a caller through CPR, taking a barking dog complaint or sending help to an animal in distress, gathering essential details that will help apprehend a suspect and solve a serious crime. They are required to have expertise in the use of complex technology and are skilled in verbal communication, de-escalation and crisis intervention. For every incident a police officer, firefighter or animal management officer responds to, there is a team of public safety telecommunicators behind the scenes.
