AURORA, Colo. — A man accused of nearly kidnapping an Aurora elementary school boy during recess will have his case dismissed, according to the district attorney’s office.Solomon Galligan, 34, is charged with kidnapping and child abuse after investigators say he lunged at a child playing outside at Black Hills Elementary School on April 19, 2024.The whole ordeal was captured on surveillance video, showing the suspect wearing a blue hoodie with dark pants and holding a white blanket.
Denver7 Investigates has extensively covered a law that changed in Colorado last summer, requiring judges to dismiss cases in which defendants are found incompetent and not restorable. However, the DA’s office insists Galligan will not be back on the streets when the charges are dropped.“... the defendant will be civilly committed for mental health treatment. Contrary to what has been reported, the defendant is not being released out in the public,” said Ross.
