Worries that potential co-conspirators in the murder of Colorado Corrections chief Tom Clements escaped criminal charges prompted the office of former Gov. John Hickenlooper to push corrections officials to hire a retired FBI agent to review the case and state policies, records and interviews show.
The retired agent submitted his findings to the state in August 2018, but his report has never been shared with the public despite the state paying his firm nearly $40,000. The handling of the case has long been a source of contention in El Paso County. Critics maintain El Paso County Sheriff Bill Elder and El Paso County District Attorney Dan May mishandled aspects of the case.
