CO has a ketamine problem.
💉More & more paramedics are being armed with the drug & using it during cases involving police
💉Individuals are identified to be in a state of “excited delirium” (ketamine, according to the pharmacology, actually causes)

"Common space has become less common in Denver, where the city closed and has fenced off much of Civic Center Park and regularly sweeps encampments from sidewalks"
It is all about rich people wanting to pretend that poor folks do not exist.

Today, (and many others) it sure doesn’t look like justice is being upheld in JeffCo—by any stretch of the imagination…@CLInclusiveness, who’s doing your recruitment for partnerships? Might wanna rethink your strategy (see next twt for today’s news💔)

Quick thread on a story that deserves your attention:
A truck driver that lost his brakes before a deadly 2019 crash on I-70 was sentenced to 110 years in prison this week. The sentence was based largely on mandatory minimum sentencing requirements (1/5)

@ZachNeumannCO How can we support in the future? Perhaps we can help organize funding for cases like these if you can connect us to ppl who would otherwise not be able to pay. Also, were you in Denver? …thought this wasn’t supposed to happen w/ the new eviction defense bills? @CandiCdeBacaD9😫
Got referred a case this evening. Client was facing eviction so he took a day off of work to go to court and file an answer. He couldn’t afford the $85 fee and was denied a fee waiver by the clerk. Tried to give the papers to the other side, but that doesn’t count.
Today on medical street outreach we went to a camp that has been “posted” for sweeping tomorrow. Everyone was frantically trying to pack up their few worldly belongings and scout a new spot to survive a few days until the next inevitable sweep.
Really excited to share that I’ve been accepted to the Emerge Colorado Class of 2022! I am so excited to learn from and grow with this powerhouse group of women! I am truly honored to join this sisterhood.
Will you please give a donation to support my tuition for Emerge?
Director of Emergency Services @DenverHealthMed—Kevin, the Ketamine King—is pretending like he & his staff were “very surprised” when they heard new legislation had mandated a suspension of licenses that previously permitted use of ketamine as a chemical restraint.
