Recently came to possess a detailed description list for all BPD case images.
Interesting to learn a few new things. One is that police found the door to the sun room had pry marks around the dead bolt. I don't believe I ever heard that mentioned before. The pry mark is described as "fresh" and one inch long.
If I have forgotten that, please feel free to remind me where it was made public. I don't believe it was.

Image #584 describes fresh pry marks on the butler's door.
In all honesty, because of the high number indicating the photos were taken days after the murder, I don't know if this is evidence of an intruder before or after the crime.

The only "pry mark" I recall reading about was this one, below, that you already posted here, from a Boulder Daily Camera article written a year after the crime. How many pry marks did they find?
"Initial reports also note there were no signs of forced entry, yet one Boulder police sergeant later noticed a pry mark in the door jam of a rear kitchen door."

I have gotten an investigators detailed list of the crime scene phots and they found plenty of pry marks, some right after the murder, some days or weeks later. I know at least one reporter broke in through the butler door but he told me it was easy to get in, I don't think he had to damage the door jamb.

Clear sign of forced entry when they didn't want to see any - - it's hard to take them at their word. These are the same people who saw no prints in nonexistent snow.
I know a man who broke in the house after - jimmied the butler door lock. Said it was very easy. The alarm was set, though, and when he didn't have the code he ran. Seems that happened a few times. House easy to break in - - but we know there were unlocked doors and windows so it isn't like anyone HAD to break in.
