The video portion of the tape was culled from post-crime documentary footage by Denver Safety personnel. It was edited into time-line sequence by a Denver Fire Dept employee, showing the aftermath of the shootings on up to the funrals and memorial services. Music was dubbed to the tape, including Wheeler's gun-control song and the Cohen Bros "Columbine" commemoration. Apparently, the finished product was shared with other Municipal Fire Depts as part of a training film re adapting to traumatic and violent incidents. The victims' families sued to gain access to this tape and won. The judge then declared them public property.

Be aware...there are reputed tapes documenting the actual slaughter. Can release of these be far behind?
