DNCC Hires Disgraced Former Officer For Security


The Democratic National Convention Committee has hired a disgraced former Denver police lieutenant to coordinate security at the Colorado Convention Center during the convention.

But the committee isn't talking about why they hired Gary Lauricella or if they knew about his background when they hired him.

Lauricella was hired as a "security consultant," according to the DNCC. One convention center employee said he has been managing security at the convention center since mid-July. The Democrats are holding numerous convention-related events at the Colorado Convention Center next week.

Several current Denver police officers who spoke on the condition their names not be used expressed surprise that the DNCC would hire Lauricella as a top security consultant, given his spotty background.

It's unclear what the DNCC knew about Lauricella when they hired him, or if they vetted him.
