Scott Michael Bowers, Petitioner v. The People of the State of Colorado, Respondent
Court of Appeals Case No. 18CA1747
Petition for Writ of Certiorari DENIED.
JUSTICE GABRIEL and JUSTICE HART would grant as to the following issue:
Whether the division erred in holding that "strangulation generally describes both the conduct perpetrated by defendant and the injury suffered by the victim," such that strangulation alone is a "serious bodily injury" under the first-degree assault, section 18-3-202(1)(c), C.R.S. (2022), and crime of violence statutes, section 18-1.3-406 (2) (a)(1)(B), C.R.S. (2022).
