The booking photo for Keith Hammock.

Update: Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey has now formally filed charges against Keith Hammock, the man accused of shooting two teens on October 9. The teens were allegedly trying to steal marijuana plants from Hammock’s back yard on High Street.

One of the teens died, while the other was severely wounded.

Hammock is facing two counts of first-degree murder, four counts of attempted murder, and one count each of manufacture and cultivation of marijuana. The filing also alleges that Hammock wounded a seventeen-year-old in September 2015 in a similar shooting incident.

For years one of the biggest things Colorado parents were warned to fear on Halloween was tampered candy. Those warnings took an ominous edge after recreational pot was legalized in Colorado. But this year, however, despite an onslaught of warnings in 2014, Colorado officials haven’t issued a single warning about the dangers of marijuana-infused candy.

There were zero incidents of children being given tricky pot treats reported in 2014 or in 2015, but that hasn’t stopped other states from issuing a warning cry.

After a week of big pot events, Denver’s cannabis calendar is taking a bit of a breather. But there’s still plenty to do around town, including classes and tours.

Cannabis has a $2.4 billion economic impact in Colorado, according to a report from the Marijuana Policy Group. It predicts that sales in the state will plateau at $1.5 billion in 2020. The industry has created18,000 jobs in the state (not all of them directly) and is bigger than Colorado’s craft beer industry.

This is a big week for the cannabis industry, which has become a very big business in Colorado. Three important events and expos will gather in Denver; keep reading for the details on these confabs and conventions, as well as more upcoming events.

Denver Ordinance 300, which is on the ballot this November, would allow businesses to opt into allowing marijuana on their premises. After proponents put up a billboard pointing out that allowing restaurants to have private consumption areas would keep tokers off the sidewalk, Westword sat down with Rachel O’Bryan, the campaign manager for Protect Denver’s Atmosphere, the group opposing the initiative. An attorney by trade, O’Bryan was part of a task force that addressed possible criminal-law issues after Amendment 64 passed, allowing recreational marijuana in Colorado. O’Bryan makes it clear that her group is not opposed to recreational marijuana or legalization per se, but opposes 300 specifically as a matter of public safety.

Love’s Oven voluntarily recalled fifty packages of its S’mores Brownie Bites on Thursday, October 20, because a batch might contain tree nuts, an allergen that isn’t declared on the label. People who are allergic to the nuts could run a serious risk of bad reactions if they consume the product.

The Colorado company identified the specific batch as RS0148A-18726, an identification number that can be found on the back of the package. The batch was delivered to dispensaries between October 4 and October 18.
