Kelly Mcginnis was born on September 17, 1982, in Colorado Springs, Colorado. She grew up in a family with roots in military service and law enforcement. Kelly Mcginnis herself has a strong sense of justice and has served as a volunteer prosecutor for the Denver District Attorney’s Office. In high school, she played basketball and lacrosse, both of which she continues to play today. She attended the University of Colorado at Boulder where she played volleyball. During her time there, Mcginnis not only played for the team but also became an All-American. In 2002, she graduated from CU with a bachelor’s degree in political science. The following year, she received her Juris Doctorate from the same school after earning Cum Laude honors. Afterward, she continued to work as a law clerk for Judge Rya Waddell at the Federal Court of Appeals in Denver (now called the Tenth Circuit). Kelly Mcginnis entered the legal industry right out of college when she started working for attorney Clark Neily’s firm in 2006.
Mcginnis as a volunteer prosecutor in Colorado Springs, CO
In 2000, Kelly Mcginnis volunteered as a prosecutor in Colorado Springs, CO, where she prosecuted sex crimes and homicides. During her time there, she also got to know a police officer named Jeffery “Jeff” German, who later became her husband. After living in Colorado Springs for a couple of years, the Mcginnises moved to Littleton, CO, to open a law firm, where Jeff started his law enforcement career. When they moved away from the mountains and into a high-crime area, they decided to leave law enforcement, and Jeff became the new chief of police.
Mcginnis as an attorney for defendant at trial
One of the first cases that Mcginnis handled while working for Neily’s firm was a capital murder case in 2000. She represented an as-yet-unnamed man charged with first-degree murder. This was back when capital murder was defined as a murder committed with the intent to commit another murder. As the case proceeded, Mcginnis learned that her client was a struggling artist who’d had a fall-out with his family and was living with friends. During one of the visits, Mcginnis’ client’s wife punched her in the stomach, breaking several of her ribs.
Mcginnis as an attorney for defendant at appeal
In 2006, the Mcginnises moved to Denver, CO, where Jeff became chief of police. While in Denver, Mcginnis worked for a law firm that specialized in representing criminal defendants at trial. Her job was to evaluate the evidence and recommend whether or not the case should be thrown out on appeal. One of her cases was a capital murder case in which the defendant was a New York Jets fan and part of a group of fans who’d assaulted and robbed a Denver Broncos fan outside a bar. While the man was on trial, Mcginnis was able to get the case thrown out of court because the Broncos’ logo was found on the Broncos fan’s shirt.
Defending Denver Broncos Cheerleaders
In 2011, Mcginnis resigned from her position with McClelland and McIntyre to focus on her new career in sports law. She started as an expert witness in the criminal case against the women’s national team members who’d participated in the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup. As part of the case against the players, Mcginnis presented evidence that showed the members of the team had faced financial hardship while they were training in the U.S.
Mcginnis and the NFL Draft
During the NFL Draft in 2012, Mcginnis interviewed with the New York Giants, who had first pick in the draft. However, she later said she had turned down the opportunity to play for the Giants in order to continue working on her testimony against the players.
Mcginnis and Becoming an Expert on Concussions in Sports
Based on the players she’d interviewed, Mcginnis turned her attention to the research needed to put together a profile of the health risks associated with the sport of football. She studied the available data, finding that there was a small but steady body of research that connected regular football play with brain disorders like concussions and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). As a result, Mcginnis began to write and publish articles about her findings. In addition, she became involved in legal cases in which players were seeking to have their careers ended because of CTE.
Mcginnis and the FIFA Women’s World Cup
In her work for the World Cup, Mcginnis began to discover that the risks associated with playing for the U.S. women’s national team were, in many ways, higher than those associated with playing for any other team in any other sport.
Mcginnis and the NFL
At the end of the day, Mcginnis is a practicing attorney who’s worked in the legal field for almost 20 years. She now devotes her time to working with athletes and their families on a variety of legal and medical issues.
Coming Out With Her: Why I’m No Longer Willing to Hold My Tongue in My Mouth
The one thing that differentiates the NFL and the rest of the world’s sports leagues, and sets them apart from one another, is the rules. The NFL’s rules are a product of a century of litigation, of draft tampering, and of trying to stay ahead of the other teams in the country in terms of technology and the latest science. We’re not there yet, and the NFL isn’t either, but for the most popular sport in the world to come out and say that they don’t want to make any changes—that they don’t want the opportunity to look themselves in the mirror while they’re doing it—is incredible.
What I’ve Learned About Myself
For the past decade, I’ve been an avid sports fan, a restauranteur, and a husband. I’ve also been an expert at holding my tongue in my mouth and staying at the center of the pack.
It’s Not the Drugs, It’s the Ride
There is no way to sugar-coat it: When I started riding the wave of Adderall and caffeine, things did not go well for me. I was worried about what people would think of me—I was worried about what I was doing to myself.
