Governor Jared Polis and Attorney General Phil Weiser stand firm on keeping Tina Peters behind bars, despite President Trump issuing her a pardon at the federal level. Callers react and Dan explains why the punishment doesn't fit the crime - or the criminal.

Dan never forgets. And Ryan's audio archives always deliver.

His commutation of a vast majority of the driver's sentence still rings hollow, after he refused to deny Kim Kardashian influenced his decision.

When compared with the disgrace of Governor Jared Polis commuting most of the sentence for Rogel Aguilera Mederos, whose out of control semi incinerated five people on a Colorado interstate, the sentence for Tina Peters tampering with a Dominion Voting System machine seems arbitrary and capricious at eight years.
