"It was rather foolish of me to even think about buying a computer from a fellow in a parking lot," Manzanares said in a television interview. "But being kind of naive, I bought it. I didn't have any idea that it was stolen .... I certainly would not have, would not jeopardize my career for a computer. But nevertheless, I recognize that buying a computer in a parking lot was not a very smart thing to do."
Manzanares was put on "investigatory leave" by Mayor John Hickenlooper after authorities found the stolen computer in his home. The laptop was stolen from an office in the District Court building. It was then traced over the Internet to it's location at Manzanares' residence. However, Manzanares denies that he stole the computer and said he brought the computer back to the District Court building upon learning that it was stolen.
"We are extremely concerned about the serious issues raised by this situation," Hickenlooper said in a statement.
Manzanares, who has served as city attorney since the beginning of this year, got his J.D. degree from Harvard Law School and has worked as a judge for both the Denver County Court and the Denver District Court.
