Broomfield Assessor Resigns For Cocaine

BROOMFIELD - The "odd long snorts" coming from Broomfield County Assessor Vickie Brown's cubicle aroused her coworkers' suspicions.

Their decision to do some sleuthing led to Brown's admission that she brought cocaine to work and to her resignation from the $83,054-a-year job she's held since 2004.

Despite her admission, law enforcement officials said Monday they don't have grounds to charge her with a crime.
