7 Dead in 10 Weeks. The Story Everyone Repeats Is Wrong. The Denver Homeless Killings.

Seven homeless men dead in Denver's LoDo district in ten weeks. Two of them found in a weed-covered field behind Union Station. This was Fall 1999.

The internet remembers a serial killer who was never caught. The 1999 record tells a stranger story. Police disputed the most famous detail within two weeks. One victim died six weeks before anyone found him. Homeless teenagers were convicted in exactly one killing. Six murders are still open.

We read the wire coverage, the courtroom record, and Colorado's official cold case files. This is the legend versus the record.
