MORRISON, Colo. — A Morrison Police officer faces criminal charges after being accused of using his handcuffs on his children, cinching them “tight enough to cause pinch marks on their wrists,” 9NEWS Investigates learned.
According to an arrest affidavit obtained by 9NEWS Investigates, large portions of which were redacted, Richard Norton was also accused of telling his children that he would break into his ex-wife’s home “to kill her and her husband” and that “he wanted to murder someone so he could see what it felt like.”
A message left Friday afternoon with an attorney representing Norton was not immediately returned.
