Description
A jury has decided whether former Clear Creek County Sheriff’s Office deputy Andrew Buen, who shot and killed Christian Glass, is guilty of second-degree murder.
Prosecutors said Glass was experiencing a mental health crisis when he called 911 for help after he got his car stuck on a boulder in Silver Plume in June 2022. Several officers engaged with him for more than an hour. After officers unsuccessfully tried to get Glass out his car, Buen broke Glass' car window, shot him with bean bag rounds and used a Taser on him before shooting him five times in the chest.
Defense attorneys suggested that Glass was not experiencing a mental health crisis, and instead was drunk or on drugs when several officers engaged with him for more than an hour. They also said that evidence of driving under the influence was legal justification for forcing entry into Glass' car and Buen’s subsequent use of force.
