Supreme Court justice to be named manager of safety in Denver - The Denver Post

Colorado Supreme Court Justice Alex Martinez is expected to be named Denver's Manager of Safety today.

Two sources close to the selection process, who asked not to be identified because they are not authorized to speak on behalf of Mayor Michael Hancock or Martinez, confirmed that the justice will resign and be appointed to the job overseeing police and fire in the city of Denver.

Hancock has scheduled an announcement for today to name his selection to the post. Check back with Denverpost.com for more information on this developing story.
