Soros-funded Aurora DA sets violent registered pedophile free after kidnapping 11-year-old, may be recalled

The New York Post follows up:
A Democratic prosecutor in Colorado "will be recalled’’ for moving to dismiss charges against a transgender sex offender accused of trying to kidnap a boy from a schoolyard, a local pol told The Post on Monday.

The district attorney’s office in Colorado’s 18th Judicial District told Fox31 that it is planning to drop the raps against Solomon Galligan, 33, after he allegedly attempted to snatch the 11-year-old during recess at Black Forest Hills Elementary School in Aurora in April 2024.

Galligan underwent a competency evaluation after his arrest and was found "mentally incompetent," the DA’s office said.

Prosecutors said they’re now "planning to drop charges against the defendant, which is required by law when they are found mentally incompetent to stand trial."

But Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky disputed that stance and told The Post an "effort" to "recall" Democratic DA Amy Padden "is well under way and will begin this week" — and ensured that it will be successful.

"The conduct of the 18th DA over the past six months is beyond deplorable. This is simply the icing on the cake," said Jurinsky, a Republican.

"The progressive attitude will not be tolerated," she said. "While certain state laws highlight deeper issues in the state of Colorado, Amy Padden will be recalled for her part in not upholding the laws and punishing criminals."

The suspected sex fiend’s older sister, Sarah Galligan, even told 9News in April 2024 that her brother has been in and out of jail for 12 years and that it’s not safe for community or himself to be out on the streets.

She said her sibling, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder when he was 16,
…there it is. Nuts, untreated, and no impulse control…
was deemed unfit to stand trial in previous instances and wasn’t institutionalized because of a shortage of beds in mental-health centers.

"It just really sucks he had to do something so eye-catching for everybody to see he’s not well, and he’s not OK to be out and be on his own," she said at the time.

Amanda Morris, Solomon’s niece, added, "This has been like the fourth time that we’re sitting here thinking, ’How the hell did he get released? Who’s letting him out?’ "

Solomon Galligan shared the news of his gender transition in a 2011 Facebook post and later identified as a woman. That same year he was placed on the sex-offender registry after he was convicted of non-consent sexual contact.
