Security guard Matthew Dolloff fatally shot Lee Keltner in the October 2022 confrontation..
Colorado's second-highest court on Thursday concluded 9News can be held liable for the actions of a security guard who accompanied a producer during an October 2020 rally in downtown Denver and ended up fatally shooting a man after a brief confrontation.
At the same time, a three-judge panel for the Court of Appeals agreed 9News could not otherwise be liable for negligently hiring or supervising Matthew Dolloff because the evidence showed the organization did not employ or direct him, instead obtaining Dolloff's services through multiple layers of contractors.
...
Steven Wright filed a lawsuit in October 2022, two years after Dolloff shot and killed his friend, Lee Keltner, when the two were leaving a pro-police rally at Civic Center Park. Black Lives Matter counter-protesters were also nearby. Allegedly, Wright and Keltner encountered Jeremiah Elliott just outside of the park, who was wearing a "Black Guns Matter" shirt and trying to incite passersby.
Elliott allegedly accosted Keltner. Video showed Wright intervening as 9News producer Zachary Newman stood by to record the interaction. When Keltner turned his attention to Newman and threatened to "f--k you up," Dolloff stepped in to protect Newman. Keltner slapped Dolloff and deployed his pepper spray, prompting Dolloff to fatally shoot Keltner.
Prosecutors subsequently dropped second-degree murder charges against Dolloff, with Denver District Attorney Beth McCann explaining Colorado law justified Dolloff's use of lethal force in response to Keltner's aggression.
Wright filed suit in Elbert County, claiming the actions of 9News, Dolloff and Elliott were responsible for inflicting emotional distress on him. He also named as defendants Pinkerton Consulting & Investigations, which 9News contracted with for Dolloff's services, and Isborn Security Services, which Pinkertorn used to hire Dolloff.
Soros funded = Beth McCann - Denver’s top prosecutor is notorious for her refusal to prosecute the 9 News – Kyle Clark - Antifa - unlicensed - security guard who killed a Navy veteran Lee Keltner during a peaceful political rally..

Good Boy
It was straight up murder.
Keltner didn’t use his bear spray until Doloff tried to grab his pistol.
This account does not quite resemble the videos of the incident we saw back in 2020.
Who is Orange Vest Photographer? miraculously in middle of every confrontation involving BLM instigator who provoked ..
Orange Vest Photographer is allowed such close access to BLM instigator because Antifa/BLM throw up their umbrellas & harass actual journalists who are not ideological embeds on their side.

Mathew Dolloff, the killer of Trump supporter Keltner was not alone. He acted with the agitator ***Jeremiah Elliot – a leader of the Antifa- BLM in Denver.
Denver Post photographer, Helen Richardson, is always right next to Jeremiah Elliott capturing the action.
Jeremiah Elliott is one of the leaders of the Denver area Antifa- BLM insurgents. This is the guy that was starting all of the fights. ( like the 1930s Brown shirts ) . .. He was involved in multiple previous assaults and was arrested several times by the Denver PD.

And other videos show him conferring with the Channel 9 video photographers immediately before he assaulted and killed Keltner. The whole thing looks like a setup for a news team scoop. Well, they got one.
The Denver DA tacitly approved of this murder by refusing to have Dolloff arrested and charged. He must be removed from office. Dolloff and Elliot should be in prison. Every member of that news team should be fired, and Channel 9 should be sued into bankruptcy.

Is that what happened? Anything invented in this account or left out?

You immunity for killing some one if you wear a magical blue suit. The “security guard” probably forgot about that
He wasn't a security guard because he wasn't licensed - he was a hired thug.

9News hired an armed thug who killed a man.
