Michael Porter Jr Car Accident: The Office of the Medical Examiner in Denver reports that 42-year-old Katharina Rothman was murdered. According to the coroner, she succumbed to injuries consistent with a fall. According to an affidavit acquired by The Denver Post on Monday, police claim that another passenger in her vehicle was also critically hurt.

Because of its proximity to the University of Denver, the crossroads in question has a 30 mph speed limit posted. In the partially redacted affidavit, Corporal Aaron Botts described Coban Porter’s “bloodshot and watery eyes, slurred and muttering speech, and the distinct odor of an alcoholic beverage on his breath.” On his left wrist was a paper bracelet that read “Bud Light.”
