Another far-left district attorney is facing the heat for putting criminals before victims. Amy Padden in Colorado is now the target of a recall effort by angry citizens who are tired of soft-on-crime policies. Republican Aurora City Councilmember Danielle Jurinsky is leading the charge to kick this liberal prosecutor out of office.
The final straw came when a 15-year-old illegal immigrant killed 24-year-old Kaitlyn Weaver in a horrific crash. The teenager was speeding over 90 miles per hour through a neighborhood without even having a driver’s license. Instead of seeking real justice for this American victim, Padden offered the killer a sweetheart plea deal.
This is exactly what happens when Democrats put illegal aliens ahead of law-abiding Americans. Kaitlyn Weaver was a young woman with her whole life ahead of her. Now her family has to watch as liberal prosecutors coddle the foreign criminal who destroyed their lives.
But the Weaver case isn’t the only outrage under Padden’s watch. She also dismissed charges against Solomon Galligan, a registered sex offender who tried to kidnap an 11-year-old boy on camera. Padden’s office claimed the predator was mentally incompetent and had to be released back onto the streets.
Jurinsky isn’t buying these excuses and neither should any parent. She accuses Padden of going “shrink shopping” to find doctors who would declare the child predator unfit for trial. This is how the radical left protects criminals while abandoning innocent children and families.
The recall effort needs over 82,000 signatures to force an election. Patriots across Colorado are already stepping up to volunteer and donate to this crucial fight. They understand that weak prosecutors like Padden are making their communities less safe every single day.
This battle represents everything wrong with liberal crime policies across America. When district attorneys care more about coddling criminals than protecting victims, ordinary citizens must take action. The recall of Amy Padden sends a clear message that Americans won’t tolerate this anymore.
Justice for Kaitlyn Weaver and all crime victims starts with removing failed prosecutors like Amy Padden. Colorado families deserve leaders who will actually prosecute criminals instead of making excuses for them. The recall campaign gives voters a chance to restore law and order to their communities.
