Attorney General Phil Weiser statement on Live Nation/Ticketmaster monopoly jury verdict: “Today’s jury verdict in our Live Nation/Ticketmaster monopoly case is a pivotal moment for everyone who loves live events. Live Nation is a monopolist and has abused its monopoly power to squeeze out competition, jack up ticket prices, stifle artists, and make it harder for fans to see their favorite artists.

“State attorneys general stood strong and continued this case without the federal government because we believed that concertgoers deserved a fair trial and a fair deal. Live Nation is being held to account for violating state and federal antitrust laws, and I’ll continue to fight to break up their monopoly, restore competition, and get money back for concertgoers.”

Attorney General Phil Weiser statement: “The original sentence that the court imposed on Tina Peters for illegally tampering with election equipment was fair and appropriate. The Court of Appeals raised concerns about the length of the sentence and asked a district court judge to reevaluate the sentence. Ms. Peters is in prison because of her own criminal conduct to prove false claims of voter fraud in the 2020 elections, and she has not shown any remorse for her actions.

“Whatever happens with her sentence, Tina Peters will always be a convicted felon who violated her duty as Mesa County clerk, put other lives at risk, and threatened our democracy. Nothing will remove that stain.

“Moreover, the court affirmed that the president’s pardon of Tina Peters is meaningless and won’t free her from prison. Presidential pardons do not extend to state crimes, and the president cannot wipe away Ms. Peters’ conviction with a stroke of a pen.”
