A lawyer for Leo Cisneros accused the Denver police Friday of planting drugs in a child's pocket and of conducting sloppy investigative work, and criticized them for focusing on the victim of a crime rather than the perpetrators.

Police have testified that Auralia had a baggie of marijuana that she was clutching in her hand, inside her pants pocket at the time of her death.
Menninger told the jury that three people — Auralia's mother, a Denver police officer who was one of the first on the scene and a neighbor who helped give Auralia CPR — all testified that Auralia's hands were across her chest when she died and not in her pocket.
By the time the coroner got to the scene, he testified that he pulled Auralia's hand out of her pocket and found the baggie.

If I understand this story correctly, the reason the police claim the death of this guy’s daughter is his fault is because he had cash and valuables in his house, as well as he had a bunch of people who knew he had cash in his house, and that put his child at risk of being shot in the head. So if you have something in your house that a robber might find valuable, then you are recklessly endangering your children.
To top it off we are to believe that the 10 year old girl had her hand in her pocket and was clutching a bag of marijuana when she was shot in her head, and her hand remained in her pocket while CPR was administered. When the coroner found her, her hand was still in her pocket along with a bag of marijuana.
The police don’t bother with a ballistics test or anything and just accuse the father of shooting her, instead of the three robbers. If it were one of the three robbers, they would have a murder charge against them. If you kill someone in the act of an armed robbery it is always a murder, but none of the three robbers were charged, because the police didn’t investigate and instead focused on the child’s father because he had committed the heinous crime of selling pot.
PS: I find it quite amusing that the mother was a police officer, who admitted to letting her husband and 10 year old daughter sell marijuana from their apartment. If selling pot was really so bad, do you really think she would let that go on in her house?
