BOULDER, Colo. — Two Boulder Police officers who are facing criminal charges after shooting an elk January 1st, have now resigned from the police department.Investigators allege that Sam Carter and Brent Curnow conspired to kill the elk that was roaming a Boulder neighborhood for meat and trophy.

Boulder Police Chief Mark Beckner briefed the city council Tuesday night, letting them know that other officers are embarrassed by all of this.

“They’re embarrassed. They are angry. There is nobody in our department supporting these officers right now,” Beckner said. He told the group the issue is being handled.

“They are no longer employed, so the process is working,” he said.

Jail time is a must.

They need jail, I would get jail why should they get less.

reading through the affidavit sure makes them look like the dumb criminals that they are. Just goes to show, criminals wear all kinds of uniforms. Thier text messages back and forth only proves that they were planning to kill the elk, no matter what.

This is such bullshit.
They are allowed to resign SO THEY CAN KEEP THEIR PENSION AND BENE'S

They should be fucking fired!!!!!!!!!! (and should have been weeks ago)

Corrupt to the core.

Corrupt to the core.

They have PERA as their retirement. One vests in five years with PERA. Resigned, quit or fired, doesn't mean anything if you are vested. You walk with whatever your account has.

No benefits to resigning over being fired. Can't file for unemployment. Don't get to keep your medical, dental or health insurance through the city by resigning.

They got out of being interviewed by their internal affairs department in their investigation. That's all. Whoopie. They were properly charged with multiple crimes and will have to deal with that.

There's two sets of rules in society: those for the governed and those for the people that govern. I'd have been locked up before daybreak the night that elk was shot, not so much for the folks that shot it. I've got no qualms with elk hunting. I have issues with double standards.

Those bull elk will have fun with them in prison...
