Payback for the big construction companies that donated to his campaigns, and ever more money to the prison-industrial complex. What a progressive..... 

And never mind that White was hired by Hancock (and to the Post's applause) to try and get more than 50% of the DPD officers to leave the police building. While White and Hancock (and the Post) failed, we can always spend the public's money and hire more and more cops (to sit in the police building, collect fat city salaries and benefits, and not solve crimes). Can't the clowns at the Post figure anything out? What percent of all the murders in Denver go unsolved? How many murders were there in the last three months and how many lack a single suspect? But, hey, we're hiring more cops and deputies, so expect city payouts to continue to go up, but not convictions.
