Court Orders Release of Larimer Autopsy Report in Transparency Dispute

By: Cory Gaines | Commentary, Complete Colorado Abortion is obviously a polarizing topic.  While this column touches on the subject, it’s not the actual focus.  Rather, it’s about something I hope we can all agree on: transparency. Government officials should not be hiding information from us based on what they think is good for us to know, or for some ideological reason; a lesson the Larimer County Coroner recently learned the hard way. In February 2025 a young woman died due to complications from a late term abortion.  According to reports in various pro-life media outlets (regular progressive Colorado media, of course, have run from this story like the plague), along with the autopsy report that followed, Planned Parenthood in Fort Collins performe...

A Person’s a Person No Matter How Small

By Ken DeGraaf | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice This story is not merely about a brave young girl gone viral for a poignant poem.

Free to Choose Life

By Rep. Scott Slaugh | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Upon arriving at the Colorado State Capitol in September to be sworn in as the new State Representative for District 64, I was eager to join the state lawmaking enterprise and already had a few ideas for new legislation. Soon I was advised by veteran lawmakers to reconsider my goals.  As one of only twenty-two Republicans facing a Majority Caucus of forty-three Democrats, it would be smart to tailor at least a couple of my early bills to topics where I might find agreement with members from the Majority Caucus.  That sounded reasonable enough; what could go wrong?  I have nothing but respect for the commonsense goal of “building bridges” where possible. Because I stand firmly in support...

Man charged with homicide after secretly poisoning girlfriend with abortion pills

By Jack Davis | Commentary, The Western Journal An Illinois man is facing homicide charges after allegedly slipping abortion pills to his girlfriend without her consent. WMBD-TV reported that 31-year-old Emerson Evans of the community of Normal appeared Monday in McLean County Circuit Court. Judge Amy McFarland agreed to prosecutors’ request to detain Evans pending a trial. Evans faces two counts of intentional homicide of an unborn child, a felony comparable to first-degree murder. https://twitter.com/LiveAction/status/1960348966689636626 The charges carry a minimum sentence of 20 years in prison for each count, IPM News reported. According to the report, police were called to the home Friday for a report of a pregnant woman suffer...
