Unbelievable that CDOC would hide the risk scores after being caught with so many errors, including a few that committed murders within a few weeks of being paroled.
The CO AG doesn't manage or direct CDOC. I know you want to come up with a reason to disparage and dislike Phil Weiser, but you need to find a legitimate reason.
Not try to blame the CO AG for not doing someone else's job.
Advising on policy does NOT mean oversees or enforces policy.
Investigation authority does not equal command authority.
If you want to be upset about CDOC then you should be mad at the people running it. Governor, CDOC Director, wardens, and CDOC admin/staff.
Notice how the AG isn't in that chain? Because it isn't the AG's job to manage or direct CDOC in any capacity.
Even if you'd personally like the AG to be in charge of CDOC, it isn't.
"The AG defends CDOC in lawsuits, provides legal advice, and can investigate and take action against CDOC for rights violations or systemic issues, as seen with district attorneys, ensuring state agencies adhere to laws."
Pretend there is a Ferris wheel. Your job is not to operate the Ferris wheel, but you are the one in charge of inspection and compliance for safety standards. Who do you think is looked at as being responsible when the Ferris wheel snaps with 100 people on it?
Investigation for violations of systematic issues. It's right there. That makes it under his watch.
Your job is not to operate the Ferris wheel, but you are the one in charge of inspection and compliance for safety standards.
No. That's the job of the CDOC Director and the Governor. The AG isn’t anywhere in the organizational chain for CDOC.
But you want him to exercise absolute executive authority...that he doesn't legally have?
You can just dislike Weiser because of legitimate reasons like his policy positions.
But blaming the AG for not illegally taking executive authority into his own hands because you dislike him is ridiculous.
But lets run with your poor inspector analogy.
An inspector doesn't operate the ferris wheel, doesn't hire the operators/staff, doesn't write or set the procedures, doesnt control or set maintenance schedules, etc.
They act after the fact or during their scheduled inspection point.
When the wheel snaps the operator and owner are responsible. (psst, thats the Governor and CDOC Director/leadership and not the AG)
No one claims the inspector ran the ride or is responsible for the failure.
Investigators aren’t operators/owners. If the AG were "in charge"... he couldn’t independently investigate CDOC at all.
Tell me you have never worked for and don't understand how quality control inspections work without telling me. It's okay, I get it, it's a niche experience. But if you are an independent inspector and you sign off on a product as being good to go, you are accountable if it isn't.
If your job is to investigate practices, and those practices are corrupt or flawed and you give the stamp of approval, you are complicit.
I am not sure where you think i have this massive vendetta against him or what you think my policy disagreements are, but you are doing a lot of assuming.
I never said he had any operational authority, and i never said that he had any executive authority. But if his job is to investigate and ensure the state departments are in compliance with the rules and laws of the state and he either didn't, didn't properly, or ignored and this is the result then yes, he is ALSO accountable.
Under his watch means nothing, unless you can prove it came from him, or he does nothing about it, assuming he can do something about it, this could end up having to go before a judge to interpret the law.
So take a chill pill dude. It was just reported yesterday that CDOC is now hiding this info. There's a lot of shit going on in the country.
As a software developer, I can't imagine the heart attacks I would have developing a system like this. And I worked on govt tax software
Read this as “CDOT” originally and was perplexed
Remember this when you see Weiser on the ballot. This is under his watch
-edit- oops I forgot Weiser can do no wrong according to the denizens of Reddit. Silly me
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe he is in charge of CDOC in any way.
AG advises on and oversees policy enforcement of DOC, along with investigating practices.

Sigh, we've been over this
"The AG defends CDOC in lawsuits, provides legal advice, and can investigate and take action against CDOC for rights violations or systemic issues, as seen with district attorneys, ensuring state agencies adhere to laws."
And? Investigative authority isn't operational authority.
Jfc simps are the worst sometimes.

Nope.

Tell me more about how you don't understand the relationship between AG and CDOC and what roles Weiser has
Buddy go back to the r/ColoradoSprings subreddit where you’ll be more comfortable
Edit: lmao actually its r/FountainColorado How’d you get so lost? Dude you’re like 80 miles off course
I appreciate the concern, but I am quite comfy thanks! Holding government officials accountable doesn't know silly limits like zip codes
edit: how about you though? with your posts hidden you must be embarrassed of where you are from and what you say? How sad for you

Weird angry take. A lot of shit going on in the country does not give the green light to ignore local problems.
It is literally part of his job to keep CDOC in check with policy and compliance.
