Sheriff Steve Reams and Michael Allen Break Down Senate Bill 261

In this episode of The Dan Caplis Show, Sheriff Steve Reams fills in for Dan Caplis, discussing the complexities of mental competency laws in Colorado. He shares his experiences with a case involving Ephraim Debisa, who was released from custody due to being deemed incompetent to stand trial, only to reoffend. Sheriff Reams expresses concerns about the current system, which he believes prioritizes releasing individuals over providing adequate mental health support. He's joined by Michael Allen, the district attorney for the 4th Judicial District, who's running for Attorney General and discusses his proposed solution to address these issues through Senate Bill 261.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
