Did a security failure contribute to the tragic loss of Jeremy Rudolph and are justice and compensation available to Mr. Rudolph’s family?

Local News

Gunfire rang out in Aurora, Colorado Monday, March 18, 2019, leaving one male teen shot and killed.

According to KDVR.com, “[o]fficers responded to the Sable Technological Center at 562 Sable Blvd. about 11:40 a.m. Monday on a report of gunfire in the area…[w]hen officers arrived, they found the victim on the ground suffering from a gunshot wound.” 9News.com is reporting, “the coroner identified the victim as 16-year-old Jeremy Rudolph and said he died of a gunshot wound to the head.”

Media outlets indicate that no suspects have been identified.

Our Legal Take

Parking lot patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided on the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.

  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on near the property?
  • Was the suspect seen on the property before the incident?
  • What security measures, such as surveillance cameras, and security patrols, were in place to deter crime and protect Mr. Rudolph at the time of the shooting?

Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the parking lot owners or management failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, the family of Jeremy Rudolph may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss.

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that Mr. Rudolph’s family retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
