False Arrest Claims Target Colorado Supreme Court Justice

Justice Monica Márquez was falsely accused of being arrested after a ruling disqualified Trump from Colorado's 2024 primary ballot.

False reports circulated on social media claiming that Colorado Supreme Court Justice Monica Márquez was arrested by the U.S. Marines for voting to remove former President Donald Trump from the state’s presidential primary ballot.
The false claim originated from a website known for publishing 'humor, parody, and satire,' and has previously posted similar false stories.
The Colorado Judicial Department confirmed that the allegation has 'no legitimacy.'
Justice Márquez was one of the justices who ruled that Trump is ineligible for the presidency under the U.S. Constitution’s insurrection clause.
The Colorado Supreme Court's decision marks the first time in history that the insurrection clause has been used to disqualify a presidential candidate.
