Colorado Cold Cases: Marine veteran executed at marijuana dispensary while working security in Aurora
A Marine veteran who dreamed of becoming a police officer was gunned down three years ago Wednesday while working as a security guard at an Aurora marijuana dispensary. The case has never been solved even though authorities are offering $55,000 for information leading to the identification and arrest of two suspects. On June 18, 2016, Travis Mason was killed during a robbery attempt just before closing at the Green Heart dispensary, Aurora police have said. Mason, 24, was shot three times, and he died of a gunshot wound to the head, an autopsy report determined. Mason had been excited about his new job at Green Heart, 19005 E.

Sen. Thom Tillis: Biden’s border crisis – he promised security, dignity to migrants. This is how he’s failed
close Video Biden administration ‘out of touch’ on the border crisis: Texas Gov. Abbott Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on the Biden administration facing backlash over border policies. President Joe Biden can deny it all he wants, but the reality is we have a crisis at our southern border. I saw it with my own eyes last month when I visited the U.S.-Mexico border in Texas. The surge of unaccompanied minors , the subpar living conditions of migrants, and the state of an overworked and overwhelmed Border Patrol have been direct consequences of the Biden administration’s failed policies. This was never supposed to happen under Biden’s watch. As a candidate, he promised the American people that he would " secure our border while ensuring the dignity of migrants." As president, he has done neither. ADRIANA COHEN: BORDER CHAOS -- KAMALA HARRIS SHOULD BE TAKING CHARGE OF BIDEN'S IMMIGRATION CRISIS NOT HIDING Instead of upholding his promises, … [Read more...] about Sen.
