Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: DENVER - Two Denver police officers are under investigation in Aurora after a tussle during a party at one of their homes and four Aurora officers are also under investigation over how they responded. 
  
 Denver police officers Steve Sloan and Jeremy Ownbey are reassigned to desk duty and cooperating with the investigation, Denver Police Department Spokesman Lt. Matt Murray confirmed. Murray said the officers and the department will cooperate fully with Aurora's investigation. 
  
 "Whatever they need, we'll do," Murray said. 
  
 Four Aurora officers are also under investigation for how they handled the case but remain on active duty, Aurora Police Department Spokesman Frank Fania said. 
  
 Fania explained the case reportedly began with Sloan, Ownbey and their wives sharing dinner and drinks in Sloan's home. During the party, the wives allegedly got into a physical altercation before the two officers also began to fight. 
  
 At some point, Sloan allegedly retrieved his gun. Fania said reports about what he did or said with the gun in hand are conflicting, but no shots were fired. 
  
 The Sloans called Aurora Police. When officers arrived, Ownbey was already gone. 
  
 While officers were looking for Ownbey, they visited his home and found children were inside without adult supervision, Fania said. 
  
 Eventually, Ownbey did eventually return and speak to officers. He was not given a roadside sobriety test but an Aurora officer did drive him home. 
  
 Fania said an internal investigation was opened almost immediately. 
  
 "We made a poor decision," he said. 
  
 So far, no official charges have been filed against Sloan, Ownbey, their wives or the Aurora officers. ||||| Denver Police patrol car. (Denver Post file photo) 
  
 Two Denver police officers are being investigated after Aurora police responded last month to a fight between the officers and their wives that involved alcohol, a gun and allegations of swinging. 
  
 The officers, Steven Sloan and Jeremy Ownbey, have been placed on desk duty while the investigation continues, Detective Mary McIver , a Denver police spokeswoman, said Wednesday. Both have been at the department since 2006. 
  
 Aurora police were called to Sloan's house at 11:30 p.m. on May 19, said Officer Frank Fania , a spokesman for the Aurora Police Department. 
  
 Sloan and his wife, Stephanie Sloan , and Ownbey and his wife, Jamie Ownbey, had been drinking and had gotten into an argument, Fania said. 
  
 "There was lots of drinking involved," he said. 
  
 The Sloans asked the Ownbeys to leave. As the Ownbeys were headed toward the door, Jamie Ownbey allegedly punched Stephanie Sloan, Fania said. 
  
 Then, Steven Sloan hit Jamie Ownbey, which led her husband to start fighting with his fellow officer, Fania said. 
  
 "There was a gun pulled eventually by the homeowner," Fania said. 
  
 Steven Sloan told Aurora police he only got out his gun and did not point it at anyone. But Jeremy Ownbey said Steven Sloan had pointed the gun at him, Fania said. 
  
 "We had a whole of 'he said, she said,'" Fania said. 
  
 Fania said he did not know if Steven Sloan had pulled his service weapon during the fight or whether it was a personal gun.

 Aurora police also investigated accusations of swinging between the Sloans and Ownbeys, Fania said, because it could affect the type of charges filed. 
  
 "That's something we looked at," he said. "We have to dig deeper. We have to ask the tough questions." 
  
 Aurora police notified Denver police of the incident the night it happened, Fania said. 
  
 Aurora police spent two weeks investigating the actions of all four involved, Fania said. They handed their investigation to District Attorney George Brauchler's office on Friday. 
  
 "When you have a brawl like that you have to look at everybody," Fania said. 
  
 No charges have been filed, but the case remains under review, said Michelle Yi , the office spokeswoman. 
  
 McIver did not know when the two officers were taken off patrol duty. They are working administrative assignments that keep them off the streets, she said. 
  
 Sloan and Ownbey also are undergoing an internal investigation at the Denver Police Department to determine whether they violated department policy, McIver said. 
  
 The incident also led to an internal investigation at the Aurora Police Department, Fania said. 
  
 The Ownbeys had left the Sloan's house, but Jeremy Ownbey came back to talk to police. It appeared he was intoxicated, Fania said, but no Aurora officers conducted a sobriety test on him. 
  
 Noelle Phillips: 303-954-1661, nphillips@denverpost.com or twitter.com/Noelle_Phillips ||||| DENVER (CBS4) – A wild, off-duty brawl between two Denver police officers and their wives — including lurid details of “swinging” and wife swapping, booze and a gun being pulled — may lead to criminal charges against at least one officer and his wife, according to information gathered during a CBS4 Investigation. 
  
 Michelle Yi, a spokesperson for the Arapahoe County District Attorney’s Office, said prosecutors are reviewing the case to see if criminal charges are appropriate. 
  
 “We are looking at the case and should have a decision soon,” Yi told CBS4. 
  
 She declined further comment about the investigation. 
  
 But according to a police report obtained by CBS4, Denver Police Officers Jeremy Ownbey and his wife Jamie went to the Aurora home of fellow Denver Officer Steve Sloan and his wife, Stephanie, on the evening of May 19. 
  
 The officers are best friends, going through the police academy together in 2006 and vacationing together. So close, according to the police report, that they have engaged in “swinging.” 
  
 When officers interviewed Jamie Ownbey, according to the report, “Jamie stated she, Jeremy and Steven have been involved with swinging (amongst themselves) and Steven would like Stephanie (Sloan) to join but she (Stephanie) will not. I asked Jamie (Ownbey) if she had ever been personally intimate with Steven (Sloan), she stated ‘yes, during a swing session with Steven and his ex-wife years ago.’ Jamie further stated she also participated in two swing sessions with Steven and Jeremy, the most recent was approximately four years ago.” 
  
 Police say they asked about the intimate relationship between the two couples to see if that might be what triggered the May 19 fight. 
  
 Sometime during a liquor-filled evening the couples ended up in an all-out donnybrook, with the women allegedly punching each other, the men engaged in a full on brawl, and ultimately at least one gun pulled. 
  
 “Quite a party,” said Frank Fania, an Aurora police spokesman whose agency is now investigating the case. 
  
 Ownbey and his wife left the house after the fight and before Aurora police arrived, but Jeremy Ownbey later told Aurora investigators the fisticuffs eventually gave way to gunplay. 
  
 “Steve pointed the gun at him and said to get out of the house or he would kill him,” Ownbey related to investigators. 
  
 Ownbey told investigators he felt he was in danger of being shot. 
  
 Officer Sloan told investigators of the evening, “He then started to fight with Jeremy with both of them throwing punches at each other and he admitted to not winning the fight and and after being punched numerous times in the head he felt as if he was going to lose consciousness.” 
  
 Officer Sloan went on to tell investigators “he went to get his gun from his truck because he was in fear for his safety and thought he was in danger. Steven stated he punched Jamie in the face for punching Stephanie, and Jamie fell to the ground. Jeremy punched Steven in the face for punching Jamie. Steven stated he then punched Jeremy,” according to the report. 
  
 Officer Sloan told investigators he never pointed the gun at his best friend but kept it at his side as he told his friends they need to leave. 
  
 Aurora police presented their case to the Arapahoe County District Attorney’s Office last Friday recommending charges be filed against Officer Ownbey and his wife. 
  
 As prosecutors try to sort out what happened and if anyone should face criminal charges, Aurora police admit they too made a serious mistake that night. After they arrived at the Sloan house and began their investigation Jeremy Ownbey drove back to the house, apparently to retrieve his cellphone. Police saw Ownbey drive up to the house. Although one officer reported “I observed that Jeremy also exhibited signs of intoxication,” Aurora police never bothered to check him for a possible DUI and in fact drove him and his car home. Another officer on scene wrote, “I asked him how much he had to drink and he related that he did not know, but that he was drunk.” 
  
 Fania told CBS4, “We made a bad decision. We wish we could do it over.” 
  
 Fania said his department has begun an internal investigation into why four Aurora officers failed to arrest the off-duty Denver officer for DUI. Fania said Aurora officers should have done roadside sobriety tests and cited Ownbey for DUI, but did not. 
  
 “It’s not routine,” said Fania. “It’s not our way of doing business. 
  
 Fania said, “At the end of the day it sounds like a poor decision on the part of the officers involved that night as far as not investigating the DUI more.” 
  
 CBS4 reached both the Sloans and the Ownbeys Wednesday afternoon and both couples said they did not want to comment on what happened. 
  
 Denver Police Cmdr. Matt Murray told CBS4, “Any time and officer is facing criminal charges in any jurisdictions we take that very seriously which is why we immediately placed the officers in a non-line assignment and launched an internal investigation.” 
  
 Both Sloan and Ownbey came on to the Denver Police Department in 2006. 
  
 One source familiar with the case said it was likely misdemeanor assault, trespassing and child neglect charges will be filed against the Ownbeys, who left their young children at home the night of May 19. |||||
Student:
"There was lots of drinking involved." That statement from an Aurora Police Department spokesperson basically sums up a crazy brawl between two Denver police officers and their wives on May 19. Officer Steven Sloan and his wife, Stephanie, had fellow officer Jeremy Ownbey and his wife, Jamie, over to their house, the Denver Post reports. As CBS Denver explains it, the two officers are best friends and the couples have vacationed together ... and apparently all of the group except Stephanie have been involved in "swinging" together. Jamie says the swinging ended four years ago, but KUSA calls the get-together a "swingers party." After some sort of disagreement ensued, possibly involving who would participate in swinging, the Sloans asked the Ownbeys to leave—and all hell broke loose. Jamie allegedly punched Stephanie; then Steven allegedly hit Jamie; then Jeremy allegedly started brawling with Steven. Then Steven pulled a gun; he admitted as much to the Aurora cops who arrived at the scene, but insisted he didn't point it at anyone, though Jeremy says it was pointed at him. Sloan and Ownbey have both been put on desk duty while the incident is investigated—and, yes, that will include an investigation of those swinging allegations. "We have to dig deeper. We have to ask the tough questions," the spokesperson says, adding that what they find could have an impact on the type of charges filed; currently, the DA is reviewing the case. The cherries on top of the already-wild story? The Ownbeys could face child neglect charges for leaving their young children at home alone that night, and the Denver Channel reports Aurora police are also being investigated for failing to investigate Jeremy Ownbey for DUI after he returned to the Sloans' house allegedly drunk.
