Check them out below, and be sure to click on their names or the accompanying links to see the original posts.

March in Colorado crime was dominated by Evan Ebel, who's thought to have murdered pizza-delivery man Nathan Leon and Colorado Department of Corrections executive director Tom Clements before being gunned down in Texas.

Look below to see the twenty most memorable mug shots from the just-ended month -- and be sure to click on the names or links to check out the rest of the story.

Last week, the FBI added onetime Coloradan Edwin Ernesto Rivera Gracias to its Ten Most Wanted list. In conjunction with this announcement, the agency also put together two other most-wanted compilations focused on Denver, including one called the "Top Ten Fugitives Arrested/Located Within the Denver Division" -- although, strangely enough, there are fourteen of them. Guess math wasn't their best subject. Look below to see vintage mug shots of the entire group, including crimes committed and the dates when they were among the ten most wanted fugitives in the country.

Look below to see the entire list, complete with photos, sometimes age-enhanced, and details about why agents want these guys in custody so badly.

Last Friday, a presumably unarmed man entered the US Bank on 1801 Jackson Street in Golden, and angrily demanded an undisclosed sum of money from a teller, escaping on foot.

More disturbing than this man's crimes, however, is his complete misunderstanding of bandit chic.
