Police payouts
Police payouts
In the past decade, Northern Colorado’s largest cities settled 205 allegations against police. The cost of those settlements was $50 million, roughly enough to fund a police department the size of Boulder’s for a year. That’s according to a KUNC investigation that found a recurring pattern where victims and their families dropped their allegations in exchange for a cash payout.
Future of skiing
Future of skiing
Many rural towns across the Mountain West are experiencing a moment of crisis — water scarcity and the threat of wildfire, as well as extreme income inequality and a shortage of workers, in part, because the cost of living is often incredibly high. We speak with veteran ski journalist Heather Hansman, who covers these issues in her new book, Powder Days: Ski Bums, Ski Towns, and the Future of Chasing Snow.

Election threats and security
Election threats and security
Lori Mitchell said she never thought her job would get this risky. She was a golf pro and a photographer before she became a county clerk in 2014. She said the first six years were rewarding as she helped people get marriage licenses and ran elections with little controversy. Now she thinks the threats against election workers will be a tough issue for lawmakers to solve.

Republican River - Part 2
Republican River - Part 2
Part one of KUNC's Republican River series showed how dropping river flows and groundwater levels are impacting farmers and ranchers in northeastern Colorado. From a 1930s flood to extended drought today, the river has been managed by three states, sometimes cooperatively and sometimes combatively. To meet the terms of a decades-old compact, 25,000 irrigated acres of Colorado farmland must soon be shut down.
