Solomon Galligan allegedly attempting to kidnap an 11-year-old boy during recess in Aurora, Colorado is set to be released
According to reports, a registered s*x offender caught on camera allegedly attempting to kidnap an 11-year-old boy during recess in Aurora, Colorado is set to be released.
Prosecutors plan to drop charges against 33-year-old Solomon Galligan after he was found mentally incompetent to stand trial — a move required by law, per the District Attorney’s office.
The district attorney’s office in Colorado’s 18th Judicial District told Fox31 that it is planning to drop the raps against Solomon Galligan, 33, after he allegedly attempted to snatch the 11-year-old during recess at Black Forest Hills Elementary School in Aurora in April 2024.
Galligan underwent a competency evaluation after his arrest and was found “mentally incompetent,” the DA’s office said.
Prosecutors said they’re now “planning to drop charges against the defendant, which is required by law when they are found mentally incompetent to stand trial.”
But Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky disputed that stance and told The Post an “effort” to “recall” Democratic DA Amy Padden “is well under way and will begin this week” — and ensured that it will be successful.
“The conduct of the 18th DA over the past six months is beyond deplorable. This is simply the icing on the cake,” said Jurinsky, a Republican.
“The progressive attitude will not be tolerated,” she said. “While certain state laws highlight deeper issues in the state of Colorado, Amy Padden will be recalled for her part in not upholding the laws and punishing criminals.”
