Former Councilman Sentenced After Teen Shooting | Denver News

Former town councilman Brent Metz got four years probation after being convicted for shooting a teen two years ago — a crime that ended in third-degree assault and illegal weapon discharge. He’ll also serve 3 months of work release and 120 hours of community service, with a strict ban on firearms. Victim’s family pushed for a lifetime gun ban, calling his actions reckless, while Metz’s defense framed it as negligence — and he apologized, saying he lives with the pain he caused every day.
