"It is with profound sadness that I must inform you that Colorado and the Nation lost one of our brother prosecutors in the most senseless and heinous way this week. Adams County Chief Trial Deputy Sean May was shot to death at his home on Wednesday evening. We do not yet know if it was a random act, or if Sean was targeted because of his work.
He leaves behind a wife – a damn good former prosecutor herself – who is expecting their first child in a few months.
On a personal note, Sean was a very close friend of mine; we'd known each other since before either of us were prosecutors. Sean was an honest, hard working man, with an abiding sense of public service and justice. The world is a lesser place without him.
Please keep Sean and his family in your thoughts and prayers."
While the Daily Times boasted today and yesterday, (front page news) about our very own States attorney Davis Ruark not being allowed to carry a weapon for his own safety and the safety of his Family, this comes as a sad reality to the criminal justice system. Davis Ruark absolutely 100% should be allowed to carry a weapon, period.

Yes, I agree. I saw him speak about it on the news yesterday. If I remember correctly, not long after the incident, a conspiracy to kill him was uncovered at ECI.
This is awful. My prayers to his family and friends.
So many of us often forget that those in public service, especially law enforcement related, take on real risk.
Give Davis back his gun.
I agree also , he should be allowed
to arm himself. I also think that
everyone that doesn't have a criminal record should be able to carry a weapon.
The answer is simple and logical,
More guns = Less crime. Think about it.
Mr. Ruark was allowed according to law to carry a weapon. Then he showed, unfortunately, that he is capable of using poor judgment. Whatever the law provides is what he should have to abide by.
Fact of the matter is that Mr. Ruark TOLD THE police who stopped him about the gun.
They didn't discover it on their own through their "just cause" search. (At least according to reports)
Give the man his gun. As long as he isn't DUI, he's NOT criminal. He NEEDS it.
(IMO)
