A new report on domestic violence in Colorado finds deaths are increasing, with a notable shift: more offenders died than victims. The data, published by Colorado Sun reporting dated October 21, 2026, points to a worrying rise in overall domestic violence fatalities and raises questions about the circumstances in which perpetrators are killed, including officer-involved incidents and other outcomes of violent confrontations.
Why now: The unusual finding that more offenders than victims died challenges common assumptions about domestic violence fatalities.
