Description | Less than four weeks before Scott Kimball started killing people, then-U.S. Attorney John Suthers signed the order that transferred the habitual criminal and escaped convict to Colorado and set in motion his ill-fated career as an FBI informant.
Suthers, now Colorado's attorney general, does not have "any specific recollection about involvement in the case," said Mike Saccone, spokesman for the attorney general's office. He said Suthers was unavailable for further comment.
The document approving the transfer, which was recently unsealed by a federal judge, was signed by Suthers on Dec. 24, 2002 — just days after Kimball's release from a Lakewood prison in a deal in which he promised to provide information about a murder-for-hire plot involving a witness in a drug case. |
