DENVER — Multiple sources claim that a Colorado Bureau of Investigation agent who accidentally recorded himself using a racial slur received leniency due to his close relationship with the agency's director.It’s Feb. 14, 2024, and CBI Agent Doug Pearson is sitting in his state-issued vehicle waiting for the SWAT team to arrive on a scene.While he’s waiting, he makes a phone call to a woman.

“I think it's absolutely disgusting. It rolled off his tongue so quickly, so cavalierly. That language is never acceptable, let alone from a law enforcement officer.”A CBI spokesperson declined interview requests for both Pearson and Schaefer. An open records request for disciplinary action taken against Pearson for this incident was also denied. A statement from Schaefer notes that “the agent was investigated, the finding sustained and discipline issued.”His full statement is below.
