A former Colorado sheriff’s deputy, Andrew Buen, was found guilty of criminally negligent homicide in the shooting death of 22-year-old Christian Glass, who had called 911 for help after his car got stuck in a small mountain community. The incident occurred in June 2022 in Silver Plume, a former mining town in the Rocky Mountains west of Denver.
Buen, who was initially charged with second-degree murder, faced a lesser charge of homicide, which carries a sentence of up to three years in prison. The jury's verdict led to Buen's conviction, and he was taken into custody pending his sentencing on April 14.
