No one has been arrested, but police hint that the slaying may be gang related, spotlighting a problem that has been at a slow boil for years. Then, on Feb. 24, another Broncos player, Damien Nash, collapsed and died. More grisly but no less shocking was the death that same day of a Denver Zoo employee, Ashlee Pfaff, 27, who was mauled by a jaguar.
