Back in the 1990s there was a series of rapes happening in Denver. They were found to be connected and everyone was on alert for the 'Cap Hill Rapist', because that's the area he was targetting.
Sadly, he raped a woman and killed her in a basement flat in Cap Hill.
Anyhow, a work colleague's boyfriend took over the let of this place, why I don't know. The landlord didn't even clear it out - there were dead flowers in there brought by mates and such.
Anyhow, this bright, happy go lucky man went from a sunny, easy going person to one who tried to kill himself by slitting his wrists 6 months later.
His girlfriend, my colleague, nor anyone else ever got it out of him what happened. All he said was, 'They shouldn't rent out that apartment.'
He survived, moved in with my colleague and eventually got married and had two children.
But if you're ever looking for a flat in Denver, avoid 12th and Corona, the building on the eastern side.
Also avoid the duplex on 16th and Gaylord near the halfway house.
