At Rest

Deadly force
Boulder County dispatchers received multiple reports of a shirtless man with some type of weapon tucked into his waistband standing on the side of U.S. 287, who appeared to be trying to fight with passing traffic, police said. When Deputy Javes arrived, Shaffer opened fire. Javes shot Shaffer, and he died on Sept. 18.
This record exists so that Adrian Joseph Shaffer, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
