The chief is on the way out, but plenty of ugly problems remain.
Denver Police Chief Paul Pazen as seen in an interview conducted during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic.The announcement of Pazen's retirement includes this statement from Hancock:"Chief Pazen has had a distinguished career with the Denver Police Department, and over his nearly three decades in law enforcement, he has served the residents of our city at nearly every level of the department, including its highest rank, with integrity and a community-focused approach to policing.
The word"interim" isn't included with Thomas's new title, but with a new mayoral administration on the horizon, there's not a lot of long-term security to that job., it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we'd like to keep it that way.
