3 Denver police officers were fired for joking about target practice at migrant shelters.
Three Denver police officers were fired in July after an investigation found they had joked in a group chat about going to migrant shelters for target practice. The officers, who were still in the probationary phase of employment, shared the messages in March, and the department terminated them due to the abhorrent nature of the messages. The Denver Police Department's mission and values do not align with the officers' actions, as they disrespected not only newcomers and the community, but also every other officer working to keep everyone safe.
