The 22-year-old Boulder man was killed after calling 911 for help near Silver Plume last June

Two Clear Creek County sheriff’s deputies involved in the shooting death of a 22-year-old Boulder man who called for help after crashing his car were indicted by a grand jury Wednesday and fired, authorities said.

The Clear Creek Sheriff’s Office announced the indictment and firing of Andrew Buen and Kyle Gould on Wednesday night, saying, in a news release, that it was “part of a painful but necessary process.”

Court records show Buen, who shot and killed Christian Glass, was indicted on charges of second-degree murder, official misconduct and reckless endangerment. The grand jury indicted Gould on charges of criminally negligent homicide and reckless endangerment.

Fifth Judicial District Chief Judge Paul Dunkelman sealed the indictment and issued arrest warrants Wednesday for Buen and Gould, according to a news release from the 5th Judicial district attorney’s office. Bail is set at $50,000 for Buen and $2,500 for Gould.

1. I like it

4. Me too. The state removed qualified immunity for police officers a few years ago.

I don't know if you've seen the video but the cop that shot him is giving an Academy award worthy performance of "Oh no, what have we done?" He actually says that.

6. that should be done nation wide.

2. The way we fund police departments is not the problem.

How do we get rid of bad cops and reward good cops is the real problem.

3. You need to look up what is meant by "defund the police".

5. The cop that shot him and his cohort either disregarded any training they had for mental health

issues or never received it. Buen acted like he was being held up for his lunch break.
