As a result, in Colorado over Super Bowl weekend, 175 drivers were arrested for DUIs. That number is down from 229 the previous year but doesn’t make the reality less serious for those who were arrested and charged with suspicion of drunk driving.

Colorado takes DUIs very seriously and the penalties they have for DUI convictions reflect that. Fortunately, [...]

Colorado Fentanyl Possession Laws: Charges, Penalties, and Enhanced Sentencing Risks

Colorado fentanyl possession charges can become serious felonies at relatively low weight thresholds. The law focuses on the weight of the material, compound, mixture, or preparation containing fentanyl rather than only the amount of pure fentanyl inside it. That means a small-looking quantity of powder or counterfeit pills can result in a much more serious charge once the substance is tested and weighed.

Colorado COCCA Charges: How Racketeering Cases Are Built and Defended
