Tag: Denver Manager of Safety

DENVER -- The short career of Denver Manager of Safety Ron Perea came to a close Monday when he resigned after his handling of major law enforcement incidents was criticized by both community advocate groups, Denver's Citizen Oversight Board and the Independent Monitor's office.

DENVER-- Residents and community activists here fear they're being cut out of the process by which Denver will appoint a new city safety manager.
