Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck told the Denver Post that he will aggressively prosecute Andrade.
"It just can't be tolerated at any level. And I hope that if anything positive were to come of this, we would develop a stronger relationship with the gay, lesbian, transgendered community so that they understand just how seriously we take crimes like this and how vigorously we will pursue justice in a situation like this," Buck said.
