Columbine Families Ask for Probe

By NICK WADHAMS, Associated Press Writer

DENVER (AP) - The families of five students slain at Columbine High School
asked Tuesday that a federal grand jury investigate their claims of a
cover-up by authorities in the 1999 massacre.

"Lies have been told beyond any doubt," family attorney Barry Arrington said
after he submitted the request to the U.S. attorney's office in Denver. "The
only issue is, why are they lying?"

The families claim a police officer accidentally killed 15-year-old student
Daniel Rohrbough as he fled Columbine and that authorities tried to cover it
up.

Investigators have maintained since the April 20, 1999, shooting that
seniors Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris killed all 13 victims before
committing suicide.

U.S. Attorney John Suthers said Tuesday he would meet with the U.S.
Department of Justice (news - web sites)'s civil rights office and the FBI
(news - web sites) to decide if a federal crime had been committed.

Jefferson County prosecutors last week said there was no new evidence for a
grand jury to review. Sheriff's spokeswoman Jacki Tallman did not return a
phone call seeking comment.

U.S. District Judge Lewis Babcock in November dismissed eight lawsuits
against Jefferson County sheriff's officers and school officials, including
those filed by the five families seeking the grand jury probe.

Babcock said school officials responded reasonably to the shootings.
