View Point Newsletter Volumne77 January, February, March A Message from your President As your President I had the honor of representing MACE at the annual American Association of Code Enforcement (AACE), and the International Code Council (ICC) conferences. As your representative, it is my duty to provide you, the members, with an update from the conferences. At the AACE conference I was able to attend several training classes ranging from vacant property registration to starting up a code ranger program. I also volunteered for next years conference committee, and look forward to working on the 2010 conference in Glendale Arizona (November 3-5, 2010). I am also proud to announce my candidacy for secretary of AACE. Please show your support in having MACE again be an important part of AACE. Please keep an eye out for further information in upcoming View Points and on our Web Site. During the ICC conference I was able to make numerous contacts through out the country and even as far away as Japan and Australia. I feel these contacts will be beneficial in my endeavors as the MACE President. If I can be of any assistance please do not hesitate to contact me.

Adams/Broomfield District Attorney Don Quick announced Friday that a jury found Harry Denard Williams, 23, guilty of First Degree Murder in the shooting death of Aurora Code Enforcement Officer Rodney Morales, 41. Aurora Police officers responded to reports of a shooting on the afternoon of November 13, 2008 at an apartment complex at 1961 Clinton in Adams County. Morales was shot to death while at the building on a scheduled routine inspection of the apartments as part of his duties as code enforcement officer. Williams stood accused of shooting Morales once in the chest and leaving him to die on the second floor of the building. Williams fled the scene and was located by police at a relatives house in Commerce City after an intense one week manhunt. District Attorney Don Quick states, "We are very please with the verdict in this case. It will not bring back Rodney, but it is the first step in justice being served." Williams was sentenced immediately by Judge Vincent Phelps to life in prison without the possibility of parole in the Colorado Department of Corrections.
