On a tragic day in Fort Collins, Colorado, a life was lost in a bus/ pedestrian accident involving Jason Telleen, an event that shook our community and left an indelible mark on those who knew him. This was not merely an accident—it was a horrific, totally avoidable tragedy that resulted in a severe loss. The case, filed under FC23-0001055, concluded with the decision not to file charges against the individual responsible for the death, leaving Jason's family and friends without accountability or justice.

However, there is newfound hope. Recently discovered evidence has surfaced after the case was closed, suggesting that there may be grounds to reconsider the circumstances and liability surrounding this unfortunate incident. 

Governor Jared Polis holds the power to make a change by issuing an executive order that would direct the Attorney General to reopen this case. This step would allow for a thorough review of all the evidence, both old and new.

The petition's goal is clear and realistic: to urge Governor Polis to take immediate action so that the truth can prevail, and accountability can be established where it was previously overlooked. This case is a matter of public interest and justice; reopening it would demonstrate the state's commitment to fairness, transparency, and the law.

By relaunching an investigation into the FC23-0001055 case, Colorado can set a precedent that truly horrific and avoidable incidents such as this one are not brushed aside. It's essential for the peace of mind of the Telleen family and to uphold the principles of our justice system.

Please join me in asking Governor Polis to do what is right. By signing this petition, you will help us push for the reconsideration of this case and bring justice to light. Let us collectively ensure that Jason Telleen's life and the circumstances around his demise receive the investigation they solemnly require. Sign this petition now, and let's bring a change that honors both Jason's memory and our community's faith in justice.
