FILE, A vigil for Christian Glass on Wednesday evening, Sept. 20, 2022, in Idaho Springs. He called 911 for help from his stranded vehicle in Silver Plume in June 2022. Clear Creek County deputies responded to his call, and in a moment captured by officers’ body cameras, one deputy shot and killed the 22-year old man.

The family of Christian Glass was awarded $19 million after their son was killed by a Clear Creek County sheriff's deputy. What considerations go into a settlement for police misconduct? Then, Denverite and CPR News partner with the Denver Post and Denver7 for a debate with Denver's two mayoral candidates. Later, a beloved woodshop teacher retires. And, remembering the queen of rock-n-roll, Tina Turner.
