| Description: | Gorman was something of a paradox in his community. Described as an “outspoken advocate for legalizing marijuana,” he attracted a great deal of attention from people on both sides of the issue. His activities made him something of a local celebrity.In fact, only days before he was murdered, a local television station CBS4 Denver aired a piece on Gorman and his medical marijuana operations. Many people who support the legalization of marijuana identify Gorman as a caring and compassionate individual who supported their cause. At the time of his death, Gorman served as the primary caregiver for several patients whose physicians recommend the use of medical marijuana to alleviate certain debilitating medical conditions. In that role, he grew marijuana plants in his home. Gorman had been robbed several times in the months before he died. Apparently, he feared more trouble because he purchased a gun to protect himself. It was not enough to keep him safe. On the night of February 17, 2007, he was found murdered in his home. |
