What a little ‘sunshine’ does to problems…

Aurora, Colorado’s top police official announced Wednesday that efforts to cleanup various apartment complexes plagued by Venezuelan gang members of Tren de Aragua (TdA), and bad management pushed the city to help about 85 families or individuals relocate to areas where they could not be revictimized.

Aurora Police Department Chief Todd Chamberlain gave an update on the progress made across the city, including his criminal nuisance closure order that resulted in the shutdown of the Edge at Lowry.

Last month, city Judge Shawn Day ruled that the Edge at Lowry apartment complex must temporarily close due to an “immediate threat to public safety.”

Apparently, the media coverage (what a surprise), caused Aurora to actually do something good for a change to protect the migrants that were living in that complex.

Now the question is, how many MORE places are in the same shape that we’ve never heard about?

Bad managers, intimidation , ‘extorting’ money in the form of high rent, and lack of maintenance isn’t really surprising considering how many of those folks were/are living paycheck to paycheck, and eating beans and rice while they tried to stay ahead of the bills.

While the apartments ‘may’ have been better than what they had, I’m pretty sure none of us would have accepted the lack of maintenance or lack of security that appears to have been the norm rather than the exception there.

And now apparently Polis et al are saying the ‘state’ will help. Soooo, it’s no longer something that was untrue and dreamed up by folks.

Gotta love sunlight when it also causes the roaches to scramble… 🙂
