Decades later, former Larimer County chief deputy DA pleads guilty to 1999 sexual assault of intern
Denver Post
LARIMER COUNTY, Colo. — A former Larimer County chief deputy district attorney pleaded guilty in September to third-degree sexual assault as part of a plea deal in connection with a 1999 incident involving an intern.
Daniel Quinn was initially charged with sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust.
The survivor, who spoke with Denver7 anonymously, was in high school when she began her internship with the 8th Judicial District Attorney’s Office as a file clerk. She told Denver7 she remembers the first time she came into contact with Quinn.
“He was in court, and he sent a message to the office that he needed a file brought to him, and I was asked to take the file to him. I dropped the file off, and I thought nothing of it,” she explained. “Sometime after that, he thanked me for doing that, which was a little odd. I didn’t get a lot of thanks for my job, and that’s the first contact that I recall.”
