Episode Description
It’s been exactly one week since a man named Michael Mott jumped over the 8-foot security fence around Denver International Airport and died in a collision with a Frontier plane during takeoff. Each day has brought new headlines, insights, and twists into the shocking incident, including legal action some passengers are now taking against the airport. So was DIA negligent? Green chile correspondent Justine Sandoval joins producers Paul Karolyi and Olivia Jewell Love to discuss the accident at DIA — as well as the highs and lows of the state legislative session, which wrapped on Wednesday — and play a listener’s twisted game: Are you actually a Denverite?
