Denver DA Drops Short-Term Rental Charges Against Attorney

Denver's District Attorney has dropped charges against a man accused of running an illegal short-term rental. An attorney was facing felony charges for claiming that his short-term rental was his primary residence.

The DA's office said new information came to light during the investigation that would make it difficult to prosecute beyond a reasonable doubt.

The attorney released this statement to CBS4, "I am so relieved to have this resolved. Fighting this for the last few months has taken a hefty toll on my professional career and my personal life. I'm thankful that the DA made the reasonable decision to dismiss the charges."
