Tyrone Glover Law Stands Against Police Brutality in Denver Shooting Case

Civil Rights Attorneys Tyrone Glover Law has taken on the case of Jordan Waddy, a young Black man involved in a controversial shooting incident in downtown Denver. Amid concerns of excessive force and biased treatment, our involvement underscores a commitment to justice and accountability in law enforcement.

In a statement to The Denver Gazette, our founding attorney questioned the official narrative, pointing out inconsistencies in the charges against Waddy, and doubts about the justification for the officers' actions: "We're talking about charges that have nothing to do with officers or officer safety. We will hold those responsible for this dangerous and unreasonable act accountable."

Read the full press release below:

“On July 17th, several Denver police officers shot and injured Jordan Waddy, a Black man, multiple times outside of a crowded bar in LoDo without reason to believe that he was a threat to the safety of the officers or others. In shooting Mr. Waddy, officers also shot and injured six bystanders. Mr. Waddy is demanding answers from the Denver Police Department regarding the extremely reckless actions of its police officers.

We are thoroughly investigating the shooting and the events leading up to it. The community demands to know how the police could so quickly use lethal force by opening fire into a crowd of people to stop a mere bar fight. Mr. Waddy is now also facing criminal charges, none of which involve threatening officers or placing them in danger of imminent bodily injury.

It’s an all-too familiar scenario tainted with bias, one for which Mr. Waddy and other bystanders could have been killed, and the City of Denver is already attempting to shift the blame. We will get answers for these communities, and we will hold those responsible for this dangerous and unreasonable act accountable.”
