The cost to repair damage to the Colorado Supreme Court building in downtown Denver could reach $35 million, after a man allegedly broke into the building and set a fire that triggered the sprinkler system for hours causing extensive flooding, officials said Friday.

“It is a disaster recovery site and not a workplace at the current moment,” State Court Administrator Steven Vasconcellos told lawmakers Friday during a meeting of the state House and Senate judiciary committees.

Risk experts continue to assess the damage after a man shot through the window of the building to break inside Jan. 2 and set a fire on the 7th floor. The sprinkler system was triggered and ran for several hours, causing “ankle-deep water” that flowed to the floors below, Vasconcellos said.

What do you call someone who uses violence for a political reason? Cause that's the charge the guy needs to get.

So reading the article, looks like it really might have not been a politically motivated thing. Dude got in a car accident and then went insane. Lucky he broke into an empty government building rather than some business or home
