We have the problem because you put ’em here without telling us.”.
In the wake of a brutal attack at an Aurora apartment complex that led to the arrest of several alleged Venezuelan gang members. Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman blasted Denver Mayor Mike Johnston over the city’s handling of new immigrants.
Coffman said on Friday that Johnston had effectively moved immigrants into Aurora while refusing to give the neighboring city basic information.
“I've confronted the mayor about it. He won't tell me how many people he sent over here. He won't tell me what benefits he gave them, what promises he made,” Coffman said at a press conference. “And so we're going through open records requests to get that information right now, and it's amazing that one mayor can't get an answer from another mayor, that he has to use a legal mechanism to get the truth.”
A new case of violence..
Coffman called the press conference after more violence at The Edge at Lowry, an apartment complex in Aurora that has been home to hundreds of recent immigrants. Nineteen people are accused or being investigated for kidnapping and brutally beating two residents of the complex.
The assailants are suspected of being affiliated with the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. Police said both the suspects and victims are Venezuelan immigrants.

An estimated 40,000 immigrants have come through Denver during an immigration wave. Many had been directed here by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. At the peak of the crisis, shelters overflowed with immigrants, and Denver enlisted a network of nonprofits to find places for people to live.
Hundreds of people ended up in rundown Aurora apartment buildings run by CBZ Management, which soon became the focus of national media attention — especially when a video captured armed men breaking into apartments at The Edge.
...
On Friday, Coffman accused the Denver mayor of using the nonprofits as a way to avoid accountability for placing immigrants in Aurora.
“He didn't have to get my permission to do it. That was for political cover. But he devised a way to do it using a nonprofit to say, ‘It was a nonprofit that did it, not me.’ Well, he funded it, Denver funded it,” he said.
Just like Eric Adams in NYC this mayor should tread carefully lest Denver’s US Attorney charge him with numerous felonies.

Ahem, didn’t that Aurora mayor say there were no illegal problems or concerns in Aurora, just earlier this year?
The Aurora mayor is now a self-professed idiot.
The left, by refusing to use the “illegal” descriptor, have now effectively cast ALL “new” immigrants as pests - and Tren De Aragua. Way to go, Dems!

They aren’t “immigrants”, they’re Illegal Aliens.
Don’t fall for the re-labeling game of the Invasion Party.
Words matter.
The article’s “new immigrants” are illegal aliens.
We must never let them get away with their evil word games.
why doesn’t mayor coffman just send them back? Does he have no control of his city?
‘New immigrants’
“HOMAN is going to clean house”
I’m predicting that deportations won’t be anything near the number that have come across the border or overstayed their visas and when it comes to deporting children forget it.
I hope Homan DOES clean house..big time. Denver governor & mayor need to get an education on this problem. I think problems in Denver must be placed a lot on Democrat leadership or lack of same. I won’t go there anymore & I used to go there a lot. It all sounds/seems just too dangerous nowadays.

Well, then the Aurora Mayor should give a coordinating call to Tom Homan and get these Venezuelans rounded up. That’s all it would take. Have Aurora LE participate in the round-up and Homan takes them of their hands.
