A 25 year old Texas man, James Arthur Lang Jr, was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison for the 1975 slaying of Denver Patrolman William Smith. The case sparked a national debate over hollow point bullets used by police and prompted legislative action in Colorado. Lang remained in jail, facing related charges. Bridges, Lang's alleged partner, died weeks later. The trial occurred in Chaffee County after a venue change.

At a Saturday news conference Colorado labor leaders warned a constitutional amendment banning strikes or binding arbitration by public employees would erode rights. Nevin Pledver, president of the Colorado Labor Council, called the proposal regressive and said denying self-help would fuel unrest and likely lead to a strike.
