Three high-ranking sources, who agreed to speak on the condition of anonymity because of their ties to Wilson and her pending resignation, confirmed to Denver7 Investigates Wednesday the situation remains fluid but that pressure on the police chief, who was named to lead the department in August 2020, has been mounting for weeks amid concerns about her performance.
Wilson was named interim chief in Dec. 2019. She lost the interim tag eight months later in Aug. 2020.The death of Elijah McClain and the drunk driving scandal involving officer Nathan Meier had already cost Aurora the public trust by the time she took over. The Aurora Police Department, Aurora Fire Rescue and the Colorado Attorney General’s Office entered into a consent decree in November to fix multiple issues identified within the two departments.
Wilson and the Aurora city manager said in Feb. 2021 that the city would pursue hiring an independent monitor to oversee transparency, discipline and accountability within the police department after an independent investigation and report into McClain’s death, but the establishment of that division is still in the works.
