Cop ERPO Red Flagged By Mother of Man He Killed In 2017 Colorado Police Shooting; Mother Claims They Have Child Together
So apparently in 2017 Colorado state university police shot and killed a mentally ill young man armed with a bayonet. Now the suspects mother, who has a pending lawsuit against the officers and the CSU police department Has filed a red flag order against one of the officers by falsely claiming the two had a child together. Without checking the facts a Colorado judge issued the red flag order Even though the woman and the officer do not in fact have a child together and she is not legally eligible to request an ERPO against him.
This is the embodiment of everything wrong with red flag laws. Not to mention that this woman needs to be prosecuted for perjury to the fullest extent of the law.
On January 9, 2020 a petition was filed by Susan Holmes against a Phillip Morris. The petition states that the two have a child in common (a factor that would make Susan a qualifying person to file the ERPO under the law’s broad definition of “family or household member”). If she was not one of the people that fall into the nine categories of “family member”, she would have had to go to law enforcement to request they file on her behalf.
There is a complex history between a Susan Holmes and Phillip Morris in Fort Collins. Phillip Morris is a CSU Police Officer who shot and killed Susan Holmes’ knife wielding son in 2017 and there is no evidence the two have ever had a child in common, as it appears they did not know each other prior to the 2017 incident described below. It is also highly unlikely they have had a child since the incident given the nature of their relationship. The petition cites “ongoing violence and aggression from 2013-2017” as evidence that Morris is a danger to himself or others and an ERPO is needed to ensure he is stripped of any firearms he may own or have access to. It also states there is an ongoing lawsuit. It should be noted 2013 is when Morris was hired by CSU Police.
The Temporary ERPO was granted by 8th Judicial District Chief Judge Stephen Howard. A Permanent ERPO hearing will take place on January 16, 2020 – just 7 days after the initial hearing, not 14 days as the bill stated.
