OCTOBER 12, 2000 The almost 150 protesters arrested during the Columbus Day parade last weekend in Denver, Colorado, each want their own jury trial, said organizers. Almost 130 met with lawyers last night, according to The Denver Post. They were cited with loitering and failure to obey a lawful order, which the city said would cost each one about $20. On a related note, the Department of Justice has refused a Freedom of Information Act request by The Denver Post to obtain a copy of the video session during which Italian-American leaders say they were coerced into signing an agreement about the parade. A Hispanic activist had called on the release of the tapes, to prove the organizers of the parade weren't coerced. Get the Story:
