Life, after Life without Parole

Carrillo talked about the choices that led him to prison and the ones led him out of prison and into academia as a college professor.

“I was one of the originators of the Young Crowd, a Pueblo gang in the 1990s,” he said. “Like a lot of young kids (in gangs), we were trying to figure things out… We were looking for family, brotherhood and protection.”

He and 16-year-old Michael Montoya were convicted of first-degree murder in the shooting death of Chris Romo in 1993 and were sentenced to life without parole. The “shooter” was Carrillo’s younger brother Anthony “Shorty” Carrillo. Shorty accepted a plea bargain for the murder and was released on parole in 2019.

After the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that sentencing juveniles to life without parole was unconstitutional, Montoya was released from prison in 2023.

Even though he did not shoot Romo, Carrillo was charged with murder because he was over 18. Years later, he says he learned “you have to take responsibility for your actions… Romo died because of our actions.”

In his talk to the Pueblo youths, Carrillo talked about is early years in prison. ‘I was 5’11” and weighed 110 pounds and was scared and nervous.”

One of the first things he did in prison was to ask a friend for a knife. He also became involved with a prison gang known as the Gladiators. “We had to stud up to defend ourselves.”

"Instead of realizing the great democratization of the U.S. and setting an example for the world that white supremacy was a myth as demonstrated by the achievements of the post civil war freed slaves, there was unleashed a horrific vengeance on the part of the southern planter class and the poor working class whites that coincided with the corruption of Northern investors taking advantage of the yet to recover south. The freedmen and women were left in the southern states at the mercy of the black codes, the Ku Klux Klan and the wave of violence that is estimated to have included more than 4000 lynchings, not only of Black Americans, but of Mexicans, Chinese and Italians throughout the south and southwest in the states that were formerly Mexico."

by Thomas Acker I have been contemplating the state of our country. Many topics come to mind but the one I have been most mindful of is the tsunami of white supremacy and extreme capitalism, i.e. c…

"The older we get, the less art we make. Everyone played recorders and finger-painted fall leaves on a tree in elementary school, but when was the last time you messed around with watercolor paints or chalk pastels on black paper just for fun? Do you ever sing except when you’re alone in your car with the radio? Society tells us that art is a waste of time unless we can make money from it, but starting an Etsy shop should not be the goal of learning to knit, paint, or sculpt, and just because you have a “good” voice or play guitar doesn’t mean you have to start a YouTube channel. Noodle around on the piano keyboard that’s been gathering dust just for the joy of noodling. Go to karaoke with your friends and sing your hearts out because human beings’ bond and love each other even more when they sing together. Smear paint around on a piece of paper or a canvas or a little wooden box you put trinkets in. MAKE ART!"

Imagine a week in your life without any music in the car or your headphones, without a single television show or movie, no YouTube reels, not a single book on your shelves, no paintings or prints o…

Its hard to overstate how big of a win this is, big ups to the many nameless lawyers, advocates, researchers, confirmers, paralegals, journalists that have gathered the facts to make this happen.

Now, in Colorado, ICE will be required to have a judicial arrest warrant or removal order before detaining anyone!!!

A coalition of legal advocates filed the class action lawsuit in October 2025
