Has any of these people been convicted? And if not why are you trying to make people look bad in society. I know for a fact that no one is perfect, so this is disturbing to be honest.

Thank you for you inquiry. Your comment provides us the opportunity to clarify something that may be a point of misunderstanding within the community. The blotter is not an attempt to make anybody look bad. The information provided is a matter of public record which can be easily researched by any member of the community. Most newspapers like the Daily Sentinel and The Criterion provide a public service by performing the search on behalf of community members. The information provided is taken directly from the Grand Junction Police Department’s blotter list, arrest records, and the Colorado Mesa University crime report. The blotter only reports police action. Convictions are a matter of the court, not the police. When convictions are made on major news stories, those convictions become the source for their own article rather than a line in the blotter. Hopefully this helps. Have a nice day.
