My letter to Congressman Polis:
Dear Congressman Polis,
My name is Jordan Rapp. I'm a professional triathlete from the USA. I am writing to you as a fellow Princetonian ('02) regarding the matter of the hit and run case in Vail which has been getting a lot of press: http://www.vaildaily.com/...01104/NEWS/101109939
On Mar 23, I was involved in a hit-and-run while riding my bike. My head went through the window of the car severing two of my jugular veins, breaking bones in my face, my collarbone, and my shoulder. I spent 18 days in the hospital. I can empathize more than I ever wanted with Dr. Milo. I have worked to organize calls to DA Hulbert and am also working within my network of industry contacts to organize strong response to this tragedy. And I will do my very best to ensure that he receives justice. I plan to push this as high as I can and as high as it needs to go to make sure both Hulbert and Erzinger realize the gravity of the situation.
I realize that I am not in your district, but as the congressman for the district in which this travesty is happening, I hope I can reach out to you.
Sincerely,
Jordan Rapp

Jordan-
Under Colorado law, the Office of the Attorney General has no ability or authority to intercede in this matter. The Office of the Attorney General can only become involved in a hit-and-run case either at the request of the local district attorney or by executive order of the governor.
Additionally, the Attorney General has no authority over local district attorneys, who are independently elected.
You can file complaints concerning the conduct of a district attorney with the Colorado District Attorney Disciplinary Council, 303-893-8121, then dial "1," or request a special prosecutor be appointed in this matter by filing a motion with the appropriate district court clerk's office, per Colorado Revised Statute 16-5-209.
UPDATE 5: Direct reply from DA Hulbert to an ST poster via Facebook
Mr. Mosely:
This site was set up for a run for State Senate that ended in June. I should have closed it down back then, but had forgotten about it as it was not used much. I am well aware of how the public feels about this case, although they have only part of the stroy. The victim in this case, Dr. Milo, was not asking that Erzinger plea to a felony, but rather plea to a felony as a part of a deferred judgement and sentence. This means that he plea to a felony and after two years it would drop off his record if he committed no more crimes and paid restitution and Erzinger could claim he did nothing. The two misdemeanors that we offered Erzinger meant that for the rest of his life he would have on his record that he carelessly drove, caused serious bodily injury on another human being and left the scene. He would lose his driver's license, face county jail time and still have to pay restitution. That is why we offered what we did.
And there is another issue. Because we made the offer months ago, including on Sept. 7 in open court, we are bound by that plea offer. Even if I wanted to change the plea bargain, I could not. The only person who could reject the plea bargain at this point is Judge Fredrick Gannett.
As for hearing what people have to say, I did recieve some comments that were thoughtful and made some good points, which I appreciate, but most were simply name calling, which I am sure you would agree adds nothing to the conversation.
Thanks again for you post.

UPDATE 6: Reply from Congressman Polis
Jordan: Thanks so much for the e-mail. Unfortunately, the Congressman is precluded from getting involved in judicial matters as a matter of congressional ethics (stemming from the separation of powers in our government). So while we all sympathize with your point of view, there isn’t anything we can do at this time to help.
Good luck!
