Poston) Three Aurora, Colo., police officers who were fired last year over a photo mocking the chokehold death of Elijah McClain will not get their jobs back, the city’s Civil Service Commission ruled Tuesday. The conclusion by the three-person commission upholds Aurora Police Chief Vanessa Wilson’s decision to fire Officers Erica Marrero, Kyle Dittrich and Jason Rosenblatt last July, supporting the first concrete disciplinary action taken against an Aurora police officer in connection with McClain’s 2019 death and its aftermath.

Officers Who Mocked Elijah McClain s Death Will Not Get Their Jobs Back

Vanessa Wilson’s move to fire Officers Kyle Dittrich, Erica Marrero last July.  Wilson’s actions to terminate the officers marked the first disciplinary action taken against an officer in connection with Elijah’s death.  In August of 2019, police detained Elijah while he was walking home after responding to a 911 call by someone who called him “sketchy.” Elijah, who was 23 years old, was wearing headphones and a ski mask due to a chronic medical condition and didn’t stop for police at first. Officers tackled McClain to the ground and put in him a carotid chokehold, which limits blood flow to the brain.
