The Gazette reported that a man could face charges in Colorado Springs wrongful death lawsuit.
Even though the man had been previously acquitted of murder charges under Colorado’s Make My Day law, he can still be sued for the Colorado Springs wrongful death.
The Colorado wrongful death lawsuit stems from the man shooting another individual outside of his home.

A man who was involved in a Colorado auto accident-related death in August 2006 was found guilty of driving under the influence and failing to yield the right of way while in court last week. The man had originally been charged with vehicular homicide.Â
The Colorado car crash occurred when the man turned his car in front of a motorcyclist, causing the motorcyclist, who was not wearing a helmet and had been drinking earlier that evening, to be thrown to the pavement and sustain fatal head injuries. The driver had also been drinking and was cited for driving an unsafe vehicle because the car’s tires were bald to the point that steel was showing through the rubber.Â

Following a fatal auto accident last March, parents of three teens have filed a Colorado wrongful death lawsuit against the driver of a truck whose vehicle struck the SUV carrying the teens. According to the Durango Herald, Eugene Chavez was driving a commercial vehicle for TRC Companies when he veered off Colorado Highway 140, striking the SUV, which was parked in a private driveway. According to officials, Chavez was traveling about 55 to 65 mph when he struck the parked SUV.
Chavez said that he was trying to avoid a Colorado state trooper that was parked on the wrong side of the highway, facing the wrong direction when he veered off the highway. The lawsuit filed against him alleges he exceeded the legal amount of hours allotted for commercial drivers as well as negligent driving.
Also named in the Colorado wrongful death lawsuit are La Plata County, the sheriff’s deputy who had stopped his car on the highway, and TRC Companies, Inc./Cubix Corporations.
