I would like to meet at 0900 Monday in my office so that I can begin the process of learning what cases
we have and the status of each.
I understand we have staff meetings Mondays as a rule so until we change that, let's put it on the
calendar.

Subject: Re: INVESTIGATIONSCONFIDENTIAL
Date: Monday, May 17, 2010 3:13:39 PM
It seems clear that since the Chief doesn't want us to do these that we won't be doing them so who do
you recommend we direct these folks to?
Is there someone you can work on this with at PCSO to get McNeil a response?
________________________________
Captain,
This is an issue where we are stuck between a rock and a hard place. The chief has given us the
direction that we will not investigate criminal activity at McNeil Island because it lies within the
jurisdiction of Pierce County. On the other side, PCSO commonly turns these investigations down and
refers them to us.
Thanks,
Who can I start referring Wes Diaz too since these types of allegations don't involve employees?
Thanks Lt.
Sergeant Chris Old

________________________________
Sergeant Old, I left you a voicemail regarding an incident that occurred at SCC on 5-16-10, at 1545. A
resident who is a vulnerable adult in our facility claims that another resident grabbed his testicles and
sucked on his penis. I reported this matter per SCC Policy to the Pierce County Sherriff’s Office, however
they declined to review this incident and asked that I notify WSP. Please let me know if WSP can review
this matter as we have been asked by our Chief Executive Officer to have this resident be seen at a
local hospital for a rape examination, however the hospital states that they cannot do this without a law
enforcement incident number.
Thank you Sergeant for your assistance in this matter. Should you have any questions please contact
me at 617- 6286.

Captain,
Vik is a loyal and hardworking employee. I would like her to have a chance to train with Dan Hall’s
crew. It will mean a small hit to the CID budget (Vik is paid through the DSHS contract.)
Thank you,
Hi Lt.
Vik would like to cross train with Tacoma CIU for a week or two. We are working out the details/dates
with Dan Hall who is all for it. We would just need permission from CID Command Staff to have Vik
use the 160 budget code while she is cross training.

I believe it was intentionally left that way to allow the appointing authorities more latitude to interpret
what is detrimental to the agency. This was changed by Jason Berry and I a couple years ago and then
recently changed again by Travis. The version prior to those two changes was very vague and did not
allow the agency to control the associations with felons the way we needed to.
No issues with CID although I found it interesting that the regulation was changed regarding
associations with felons.
Employees shall avoid regular or continuous associations or dealings with persons whom they know, or
should know, are persons under criminal investigation or indictment, or who have a reputation in the
community or the department for present or past involvement in felonious or criminal behavior or are
known to be a convicted felon.

Can you help me find the evaluation form I am supposed to use for Melinda’s 3 month evaluation?
This looks like a good idea to me, but I am more inclined to do this after we have our own after action.
Then we would know what information to provide to them.
Thoughts?
I know you aren’t there yet ( but close) but I already have a request. Can you be persuaded to meet
with Larry, me, Randy Watson and Karen Green to just discuss this scene a bit at some point. This
scene is past but it is always good to review events for better processes for the future. We would like
to give you excellent service especially in these highly charged, intense scenes. However, we
sometimes do not receive the tools in which to give you the investigative information you need.
Sometimes expectations are unrealistic or we can help in ways you may be unaware of. Also, we need
to know your limits and expectations.
One area we could talk about is future training events by the CSRT or other disciplines, so CID has a
better understanding of our capabilities and requirements. And we can definitely benefit from
discussions on CID’s ideas and recommendations. If our teams know each other’s needs better, it can
alleviate misunderstandings and give both sides a better product. I have been so impressed by OPS’
open communication style and willingness to train CLD staff, I would like to return the favor on another
level. This was just one thought but I am sure there are a lot more. Let me know what you think-
when the dust settles (Of course, I have been waiting for that to happen for over 30 years.) and we
can set up a time if this works for you. Enjoy the wonderful weather!

Date: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 1:31:00 PM
I echo Lt. Myer’s praise for the work that you guys do. It is nice to arrive in the division with a survey
that confirms that we are doing a good job. I am not overly concerned about the minimal responses we
received, it is to be expected. I believe that we would have gotten the same feedback from the other
PAO if they had submitted responses.
Regarding the timeliness issue, recognize that it will always be an issue. My hope is that as a division
we are producing high quality, thorough and professional work that stands up in court and results in
bad guys being prosecuted appropriately. Read the comments that some of the Prosecutors made
about how to improve on timeliness and implement any ideas you have. You should be meeting with
them regularly and keeping them up to date on our progress so if you discuss this with them, that
should take care of it.
Thanks again for the work you do, I am proud to be here and this just confirms why.
Captain,
Attached is the IOC outlining the results of the 2010 prosecutor survey. It reflects some great work by
all of our folks!
Sergeants,
Excellent work! We appreciate your ongoing commitment to producing high quality and comprehensive
investigations; and your professionalism with the prosecutors and during trial. Please share the results
with all your personnel—while the detectives names are attached to the file, we all know there is a
tremendous amount of support that goes into producing high quality investigations!
We took a bit of a hit on the timeliness of case submissions, which I know we are already working on.
Do not jeopardize the quality of our cases for the sake of getting them done sooner, but if you see
opportunities to implement improvements please do! And share, if others might benefit from your
ideas. Keep up your efforts of monitoring the case status. I will send individual responses to sergeants
in the areas where the PA identified their jurisdiction.
A special thanks to Sgt. Hall for doing his work in managing and compiling the survey results!
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for the outstanding job by everyone!
Thanks,
Julie
If you have time today, I can come over to your office. If not, let me know when and I will make time.

As long as you are comfortable with the coverage, I don’t have a problem with it.
Captain,
Ken will be flexible if a shift change is necessary and the extra hours in the office will benefit his units
and the section.
Thank you,
Sir,
I am respectfully requesting the opportunity to work Tuesday thru Friday 10 hour shifts. This is the
opposite shift of Det. Erdahl which would still provide coverage to respond to calls on campus Monday
thru Friday.
Thanks,

Subject: Request for Investigation
Date: Thursday, May 20, 2010 10:44:00 AM
AC Miller,
I just spoke with Scott Snyder, (Attorney), who does Labor Law for the City of Montesano. He has
drafted a letter on behalf of the Mayor of Montesano requesting that WSP investigate their Chief.
Allegedly the Chief has misappropriated funds and property for personal use.
The letter is going to the Chiefs office with a request for a criminal investigation and an administrative
investigation. I explained the process to him and said we would consider his request, but did not
commit to it. I asked about a local agency handling it and he indicated that there is bad blood between
Montesano and the Sheriff’s office so that is not an option for them.
He went on to say that the Chief would be administratively reassigned to his residence. I will look for
the letter if it arrives this week and we will keep you posted.
Mike
OK, I will respond to Lynn McIntyre and let her know we want to do an internal after action first and
then get together with them.
Is this something that Keith could start working on as far as arranging a time and place for us to meet
as a division and do lessons learned? I would like it to be sooner than later. Otherwise, it will fall to
you and you seem busy enough as it is.
Let me know.
I like the idea as well. I agree with it following our debriefing. The crime lab’s training might be an
opportunity to get folks from various regions together to discuss Johnson’s shooting, our future
responses, and the Major Response Team.
I could see all CID personnel (including support staff, etc, and maybe those outside the divisions that
will be identified to participate on the response team) and crime lab/CSRT personnel from D2, D7
meeting to discuss lessons learned, exchange of some training, and how a future response would look.
Do the same for D1, D5, D8; and D3, D4, D6. There will be travel expenses, but it might be an
alternative for a summit, which we have not had for a couple years.
This looks like a good idea to me, but I am more inclined to do this after we have our own after action.
Then we would know what information to provide to them.
Thoughts?
I know you aren’t there yet ( but close) but I already have a request. Can you be persuaded to meet
with Larry, me, Randy Watson and Karen Green to just discuss this scene a bit at some point. This
scene is past but it is always good to review events for better processes for the future. We would like
to give you excellent service especially in these highly charged, intense scenes. However, we
sometimes do not receive the tools in which to give you the investigative information you need.
Sometimes expectations are unrealistic or we can help in ways you may be unaware of. Also, we need
to know your limits and expectations.
One area we could talk about is future training events by the CSRT or other disciplines, so CID has a
better understanding of our capabilities and requirements. And we can definitely benefit from
discussions on CID’s ideas and recommendations. If our teams know each other’s needs better, it can
alleviate misunderstandings and give both sides a better product. I have been so impressed by OPS’
open communication style and willingness to train CLD staff, I would like to return the favor on another
level. This was just one thought but I am sure there are a lot more. Let me know what you think-
when the dust settles (Of course, I have been waiting for that to happen for over 30 years.) and we
can set up a time if this works for you. Enjoy the wonderful weather!

Mike,
We have a key that you can pick up that will get you in to the office. Contact Ken Harkcom and he will
get it to you. When your Trooper is done with it, someone can get it back to us Monday morning.
Hello Gentlemen,
This is a follow up to the conversation I had with most of you. The GA is having their annual fire alarm
test this Saturday May 22, 2010, between the hours of 07:00 and Noon. The two GA contact people
are Andy Drotos (360) 507-1561 and Nate Vargas (360) 239-2698. Both Andy and Nate will be here
this Saturday for this inspection.
If you received this e-mail, this means your work spaces are in secure areas which the GA does not
have access and needs your cooperation for access.
The two testers will be at the next door down from the ESS Office which is labeled Fire Controls,
starting at 07:00.
Captain Dahl’s area has been covered (4th floor). Captain DePalma has arranged to access his facility
at 08:00 (OPS). Captain Lamoreaux opted to conduct this in the near future (HRD). Sergeant Regalado
provided access to his area (4th floor).
Thanks for all your understanding and cooperation on such short notice.

Thank you,
Thank you Jim, as you know, this means a lot to me. I have always held you in high esteem and have
been proud to serve in the same agency that you did. I remember the interview day too. I was
nervous but very excited to finally get a chance to join this great agency. It has been 19 years since
then and I couldn’t be happier about my choice.
I certainly never envisioned making it to this level, but as the time has gone by, it seems that this is the
natural progression of things and I feel good about taking the position. I was at a going away pot luck
from internal affairs yesterday and I told all of them that no one makes it to any position in this agency
alone. It is the great work that all of them did over the three years that I was there that helped me
learn and grow enough so that I could assume this new role. I will be forever grateful to all the people
that have modeled the way for me. That certainly includes you.
As for Geri, what can I say? She has always been so kind to me and so generous. She is one in a
million.
Thanks for everything and I hope to see you on the golf course over the summer.
Mike
Mike: Sorry for my congratulatory tardiness. I have a vivid memory of sitting in my little office at our
WSECU Personnel Office, and seeing you walking up Plum Street dressed to the “9’s”, and carrying your
brief case, on your way in for your initial interview for hiring-on. I thought at the time that if every
applicant presented and carried themselves as you did we would be living in a perfect world. You hit
your interview out of the park, you couldn’t have represented yourself in a more perfect way….and you
haven’t stopped since.
A special thank you for the way you treat Geri. She also thinks the world of you and regrets having to
move down stairs where she won’t be able to interact you on a regular basis.
We both wish you every continued success in your new position, and I promise I’ll be more prompt with
my congratulations on your next promotion.

It has been just about one week since I came upstairs to work instead of walking in at the ground floor
and seeing all of you each day. Needless to say, it is a funny feeling. For almost three years, I got to
spend time every day with the best of the best. The most talented, dedicated and fun people that this
agency has to offer. You should all be very proud of the team that is assembled down there and do all
that you can to ensure that it continues to grow and move forward.
I have bragged and told stories about you, shared good moments and some tough moments on cases
with you, been there when kids were born, parents were lost, promotions were achieved, personnel
changed, shared tears and about a million laughs. What a run. We truly became family and learned so
much about each other. So many memories to look back on with great fondness.
I can’t thank you enough for the way you all worked and for how hard you worked to build the great
reputation that OPS/IA now enjoys. I heard it everywhere I went. Talked to so many people and got so
many compliments about all of you and they are all well deserved. Ironically, I got an email from Candy
Warren that I think is perfect to sum up what we have achieved. It reads in part:
“The gang up there right now (and have been there for a while now) are great folks to work with. Take
care, C.”
I know that the rest of the TA board feels the same way and I think it is the ultimate compliment to
have them say this. This comes from your work and dedication to always seeking the truth and making
it easy for the appointing authorities to make a determination. While our team was there, we had 100%
satisfaction from our AA survey and they too were very complimentary of your work. No matter where
you look or who you ask, our team did it right and was the model for how it should be done. Our
friends at the regional IA group know it too, that’s why we have so much respect from them.
The people that have moved on from OPS/IA have only been able to achieve what they did because of
the team that is there. No one does anything alone. All of us owe a great debt to each one of you.
When we all agreed to work together, we also agreed to give a lot of ourselves and sacrifice personally
so the team would win. It should be obvious that when you don’t care who gets the credit, but care
only about putting out a superior product, you can achieve great things. Individual achievement is nice,
but team achievement is far more rewarding.
Personally, I will miss everything about the job. But more than that, I will miss working with you. You
can’t ask for a better group and I can say without reservation, this is the most rewarding and enjoyable
time in my career. It’s not an overstatement to say that you are the best of the best.
Please do me the honor of taking some time to reflect on all that you have achieved and worked so
hard to accomplish. It is worthy of looking back on because it will make you proud but will also drive
you to keep moving forward and making it even better.
I know that there are changes to come in OPS/IA and that over time, one of you will be the last one
standing from the current group. Just remember that those that follow us will use the model that we
created to determine how to do the job. I am certain that if they are willing to do it at the same high
level that each of you are, they will be successful too.
Thanks to all of you for all that you did for me. I have been blessed to work with you and even more
blessed to have you as friends.
Sincerely,
Mike

Hello: Chief Ed Holmes would like to extend an invitation to join a WASPC Model Policy Committee
discussion on the creation of a model policy to address implementation of HB 2476 (2008)--tribal
officers acting as general authority Washington peace officers. The meeting is set for June 30th, from
1-4 pm in WASPC’s Lacey offices. ( This meeting will follow the WASPC legislative committee meeting
held in the morning.)
It is important that interested parties attend to help us address this complicated legal and policy issue.
We will need to call upon your expertise and policy perspectives. Please forward this invitation to other
potential interested parties. Materials for the meeting will be sent out shortly. If your agency has
already crafted a policy to implement the 2008 law or has Interlocal Agreements to share as sample
ILAs for the Committee, please feel free to forward them to me and I will distribute to the Committee in
advance of the meeting.
Thank you.

Subject: RE: CID Weekly Report with Confidential Personnel Information
Date: Friday, May 21, 2010 3:53:00 PM
Chief,
I spoke with the staff here and we have not given the report to anyone outside the DC, AC and CID
Command Staff for some time now. On all the reports, there is information that is case sensitive or
procedurally sensitive and we don’t even want GMR potentially fielding questions and revealing
inadvertently information.
I suggest we keep it this way and if GMR has questions that are specific to a case, they can ask us so
we can control what goes out and avoid damaging a case or investigation.
Mike,
At one point this report was forwarded to GMR. Captain Berry and Bob Calkins would both like to
receive it. Do you have any conflicts with adding them to Vicky’s email list?
Thanks,
Greg
Assistant Chief Gregory E. Miller
(360) 704-2979
Good Afternoon,
Thank you,

Have insights or comments to share with Force Science News? You can e-mail us at:
editor@forcescience.org <mailto:editor@forcescience.org?Subject=Note from a Force Science News
reader> . We always look forward to hearing from readers!
What do you wish you'd known when you started in law enforcement?
Reflecting on your career in police training, force assessment, or street ops, what is one thing you know
now that you wish you'd known when you were fresh on the job?
Former sergeant Brian Willis, the well-known motivational trainer and certified Force Science Analyst,
put that question to a wide cross-section of North American law enforcement professionals, ranging
from members of major urban departments to obscure rural agencies. From the responses of 35,
including other FSAs and Force Science advisors, he has fashioned a compelling new book, If I Knew
Then: Life Lessons from Cops on the Street.
Interestingly, few of the contributors offer practical tactical tips that might have sooner advanced their
careers or helped them better work the street, although a number are clearly survivors of violent
narrow-misses. Instead the vast majority cites hard-earned insights about mind-set, emotional
openness, and personal balance that may, in less tangible ways, be the most life-affirming of qualities.
"I believe this reflects the realities--and the disturbing pathologies--of police work," observes Dr. Bill
Lewinski, executive director of the Force Science Institute. "Although we justifiably focus much training
and attention on surviving deadly encounters with suspects, only a relatively small percentage of
officers will end up in a gunfight during their careers.
"Statistically, the risk is much greater that their lives will be seriously impacted by chronic stress,
'suicide by inches' from persistent frustration and bad habits, ethics issues, cynicism, marital strife and
divorce, anger and resentment toward their department, and other common erosions of happiness and
fulfillment. So it's understandable that officers' honest reflections would center on 'lessons learned' that
are more philosophical in nature."
Collectively, Willis' contributors represent more than 500 years of law enforcement experience. As one
reviewer has put it, their thoughts, war stories, and lodestar principles are relevant and valuable for "the
greenest rookie" looking for guidance on "how to thrive in the often harsh world of policing" to the
retiree willing to "ponder about the past, and every cop in between."
Here are small excerpts from an expansive treasure-trove of knowledge that police professionals say
they'd most like to share from their years behind the badge:
• Rule of 5. "When something bothers me, I use a Rule of 5 to determine how big of a deal it really is. I
ask myself, 'Will this thing really matter in 5 days?' If so, I ask, 'Will it matter in 5 months?' If so, I ask,
'Will it matter in 5 years?" Most things fail at question 1. Some things--career, family--make it to
question 2. Almost nothing, except some family stuff, makes it to question 3. So don't sweat the small
stuff--which is most things.
"Stay young at heart, active, healthy, and positive. Choose your attitude every day when your feet hit
the floor. You cannot choose what's going to happen to you, but you can choose how you are going to
handle it...how you are going to let it affect you. Your attitude is probably the most important choice
you will ever make because it influences everything in you life all the time and it will absolutely mean
the world to you, your family, and your workmates for your entire life."
--Gary Stoney, Sr. Sniper, Calgary (Alberta) Police Service Tactical Unit
• Being there. "Finding balance in your life requires that you be present in the moment--not somewhere
else. This vicious cycle of wishing you were off while at work and wishing you were at work while
you're at home means you're never 'there,' never in the moment. You're never truly living.
"You must learn that the Police Department is not a furry dog that will meet you at the door when you
get home. It is not a living entity and not capable of love. You can love fellow officers, but the agency is
a machine...cold and sometimes callous. It will not sustain or fulfill you. In your darkest days (and there
will indeed be some in law enforcement) it is those you've loved and love you that will strengthen,
sustain, and see you through life's 'bumps in the road.' "
--Training Dir. Kevin R. Davis, Akron (OH) PD
• Power of compassion. One of Willis' contributors vividly describes a fight for his life with a prisoner
who attacked him en route to a cellblock. Among other serious injuries, "he stuck his finger into my eye
socket with enough force that I could hear skin tissue separating behind my eye....
"I was off work for 6 weeks. I was angry and scared that I might not ever be an operational policeman
again. After awhile, though, I knew I could choose to be bitter and angry at my attacker or I could
choose to be compassionate and have hope for the future.
"For me to leave this incident behind and move forward with my life, it was important for me to forgive
my attacker. At the sentencing hearing, I explained to him that he needed to take full advantage of the
addictions counseling and educational opportunities while in jail; he needed to be a good father to his
children and a productive member of his community; and then I would forgive him.
"He was sentenced to 3 years. Officers who currently work in his community tell me he is a model
citizen. The lessons I learned from this incident will stay with me forever. Learn the power of
compassion for your own benefit and for the benefit of the community you police."
--Cpl. Paul Fuhr, firearms instructor and police medic, RCMP
• Free university. "Thirty years ago I walked into a police station as a new officer and had absolutely no
clue of what I was getting myself into. I had no idea I had enrolled in the Open Police University. Even
when I was performing what I believed at the time to be the most boring of duties, I had the
opportunity to gain valuable, directly applicable lessons, the likes of which cannot be replicated in any
classroom. All I had to do was accept that I was a student in the school, pay attention, and then ask
myself what I might be learning.
"The Open Police University has many courses you can take, tuition is free, and the education you can
receive is invaluable. Similar to a traditional university, no one cares whether you attend classes or learn
from your opportunities. The only one who will benefit or suffer from you actions is you."
--Chris Lawrence, Force Science Analysis certification instructor
• Self-management. "The things I know now that I wish I knew at the beginning of my career apply to
any walk of life: fitness and health management, family management, time management, and financial
management. There is so much you have no control over so take control of the things you can."
--Det. (ret.) George Demetriou, NYPD
• Debrief your priorities. "Just as it is important to debrief training or real life situations, it is important
to debrief aspects of our lives.
"Determine what is important to you by looking at the various dimensions of your life. These may
include spirituality, culture or ethnicity, hobbies and interests, friends, family, goals.
"Let that list of priorities (your core values) become your compass.
"Review them occasionally. As you make decisions, you will not have to think too hard about the right
thing to do. Since you already have your values prioritized, you will remain grounded and on track; you
are ready to 'enjoy the ride.' "
--Ofcr. Mark Zbojniewicz, Tucson (AZ) PD, Arizona POST training specialist
• Work at marriage. "I wish I'd known earlier that it was worth all the work to keep your marriage
together. To avoid the kicked-in-the-guts raw emotions that surface when a home breaks up in
divorce."
--Sgt. (ret.) Rocky Warren, Placer County (CA) SD
• Lethal cocktail. "It's sad but there are officers who have lost focus on the positives and are squarely
fixated on the negatives. They will hold court with anyone who will listen, attempting to spin their
conspiracy theories and hatred of everyone and everything. A lot suffer from 'suspicious intent,' where
they become suspicious of the 'hidden motives' of every individual.
"Learn to recognize these officers and avoid them like a cancerous plague. To listen to them can
become a lethal cocktail to your career and your life. One of the most dangerous threats to your
enjoyment in police work is when you lose a positive mind-set."
--Sgt. Jeff Quail, Winnipeg (Manitoba) Police Service tactical team
• Making a difference. "Staying positive in law enforcement is in itself a discipline. Law enforcement will
invite you to become as negative as the world that the dispatcher sends you into call after call.
"Any number of old-timers told me over and over and over again to 'slow down--you know you can't
make a difference.' But I chose to try to make a difference on every call, contact, or assignment.
"I did not know that the path I had chosen was the right path until I reached the end of my career. I
did not know at the beginning that it would enhance my ability to make a difference, one call at a time,
in the lives of the people on my beat, the people I arrested, the recruits, veterans and supervisors I
trained, as well as my wife and family who stood by me through it all."
--Lt. (ret.) Dan Marcou, La Crosse (WI) PD SWAT
• Different voices. "Have people within your circle who do not completely agree with you on all things.
It is good practice to learn how to explain your ideas to people who think differently than you."
--Sgt. (ret.) Craig Stapp, Tempe (AZ) PD firearms instructor and Force Science advisor
• Are you listening? "One thing they don't teach you in police recruit school is how to listen. I found out
that listening is probably the single greatest attribute a police officer can have. I have often asked
myself why it took me so long to understand the wisdom of that."
--Spcl. Agt. Jim Smith, unit training officer, CSXT Railroad (NY)
• W.I.N. Willis offers the acronym W.I.N. as his personal "wish I'd known then." It stands for What's
Important Now, the signature theme of his Winning Mind Training organization.
"In our personal and professional lives, we are faced with a number of choices and decisions every day-
-some more critical than others," he writes. "If we are to achieve excellence in our lives, we must ask
ourselves this simple but powerful question throughout every day: What's Important Now? Doing so
forces us to prioritize our options and focus on what is important.
"If I had understood the power of that one question early in my career, it would have helped me be a
better father, a better son, a better husband, a better cop, and a better trainer. I believe it is life's most
powerful question."

Just a quick line to convey our appreciation ( FBI Tri-Cities Vioelnt Crimes/Gang Task Force) for your
assistance serving the search warrants and providing your personnel to document, tag and log the
evidence from both Kahlotus and the Eltopia sites. Your teams professionalism, demeanor and
willingness to assist was noted and appreciated by our task force members. It was true team work, and
that I truely appreciate. the Eltopia site looks like we are going we will be going on federal charges.
Because it was a State case for now, it was nice to able to call my WSP partners and collegues to assist
me, especially with the evidence. Its been sometime since I took evidence and entered it into our
system. It was nice having your team there.
Ed McAvoy, thank you for making the trip and helping transport and take the evidence for us. It was

Captain,
I called Vicky for clarification and she said you were going to make a call to Steve Johnson. In the
meantime I called Terry in Yakima to learn this was a CVD trooper. The investigation is being handled
by YCSO. I have asked Terry to contact both the SO and the PA to let them know CID/Terry will be

to make the call to Johnson. Once I receive the criminal referral paperwork I will add it to the weekly

Since I don’t know anything about this guy, can you tell me the story? If he hasn’t worked for a while,
we should remove him, but why is he not working? Is it because he chooses not to or because we
have an issue with his work? If it’s simply a matter of him no longer being needed or wanting to work,
then I say go ahead and remove him.
I just want to be sure that we do it correctly so we create an issue for him to complain about.
Thanks
Captain,
VIN has a number of “On-Call” employees who from time-to-time fill in for VIN specialists in the
districts. Mr. Robert Watkins has not been available to assist us for several years and we would like to
take him off the books. Per Darlonna’s e-mail below we need permission from the chain-of-command
to end Mr. Watkins appointment.
Thank you,
Lt. Keith Huntley
Is something that I need to generate? I can bang one out quickly if there isn’t some boilerplate
available.
Good afternoon –
We will need an e-mail or IOC routed through the chain of command showing that you wish to separate
this employee. Once we receive that, HRD will need to send him a letter notifying him of this
separation.
Here is the language from the IFPTE Contract regarding on-call employees:
On-Call Employment
The Employer may fill a position with an on-call appointment where the work is intermittent in nature,
is sporadic and it does not fit a particular pattern. The Employer may end on-call employment at any
time by giving one (1) working day’s notice to the employee. On-call employees may schedule annual
leave and use sick leave they have accrued.
Thank you,
Darlonna Vaughan
I don’t see any reason why we can’t take him off the books.
Darlonna,
What would it take to put VIN Specialist Robert Watkins on inactive status?
Thanks,
Lieutenants,
Is there any reason we still have Bob Watkins as an intermittent VIN inspector? He hasn’t worked in
several years.
Thanks,
Dave
Due to Officer Watkins’s position change in April, we have expired his ATD record. Since his email
address is not in the global listing, I am sending the notification through you.
His ATD record has been changed with the following specifications:
*Please complete all TARs following the expiration date. Failure to do so WILL result in missing TARs.
*He will need to enter TARs from April 16th forward, since his ATD expiration date is April 15, 2010.
If Officer Watkins wishes to be placed back on ATD, he will need to submit a new ATD form detailing
his current shift, work schedule and activity information. He may access the form by clicking on the link
provided below. Please be sure the form has the proper authorization signatures before it is sent to
TAR Support.
Please direct any questions to the TAR Support mailbox. Thank you.

Perfect, thanks.
I generally put a copy of the emails/acknowledgments into their DOC books. If it is something that
comes in a hard copy I will stamp it with a positive recognition stamp that correlates with the JPA
categories and will send them out for review/signature and to return. If it is something where we put a
lot of work into an investigation I typically prepare a division certificate for the folks who participated.
How do we keep track of these successes and good work? Do we 095 or put this in their DOC books?

Thanks for the email. CID is very interested in the idea of doing both of these things. We have our
own internal after action meeting scheduled for June 9th so after we complete that, we will be able to
meet with your team.
I want to give our folks a chance to look at what occurred and see what worked and what can be
improved, but when that’s done, we would like to set a time for you group to meet with us.
The training idea is good too. I will have one of the Lieutenants work out the details so we can get
some of our people together.
I will be in touch with you after the 9th and thanks again for the offer.
I know you aren’t there yet ( but close) but I already have a request. Can you be persuaded to meet
with Larry, me, Randy Watson and Karen Green to just discuss this scene a bit at some point. This
scene is past but it is always good to review events for better processes for the future. We would like
to give you excellent service especially in these highly charged, intense scenes. However, we
sometimes do not receive the tools in which to give you the investigative information you need.
Sometimes expectations are unrealistic or we can help in ways you may be unaware of. Also, we need
to know your limits and expectations.
One area we could talk about is future training events by the CSRT or other disciplines, so CID has a
better understanding of our capabilities and requirements. And we can definitely benefit from
discussions on CID’s ideas and recommendations. If our teams know each other’s needs better, it can
alleviate misunderstandings and give both sides a better product. I have been so impressed by OPS’
open communication style and willingness to train CLD staff, I would like to return the favor on another
level. This was just one thought but I am sure there are a lot more. Let me know what you think-
when the dust settles (Of course, I have been waiting for that to happen for over 30 years.) and we
can set up a time if this works for you. Enjoy the wonderful weather!

Subject: RE: ATD Change Confirmation - Watkins, Robert K.
Date: Tuesday, May 25, 2010 2:29:00 PM
Darlonna,
Please remove the employee listed below. Apparently he is no longer available for us and will not be
requested for future VIN work.
Bob is a retired trooper who moved to VIN, where he retired again (or maybe riffed when we eliminated
out of state inspections). It was before my time. He became an intermittent inspector and worked fill
in a couple of times in the past 7 years. Bob has not worked in about 5 years and is no longer ACCESS
certified. There have been no situations in the recent past that required us to call Bob to fill in. Things
have changed in the VIN Lane so much in the past five years that I am concerned that Bob will not be
very effective working alone, which is what he would be doing if we called him to work a shift or two.
The last time he worked, Bob lost two blank VIN plates which are currently entered into WACIC as
stolen. Aside from that, he’s just not a good fit for the current situation, even though I like him very
much.
In the mean time, Don Wigen (also a retired trooper) became the second intermittent when he also
retired from the VIN lane. Don has maintained his ACCESS certification and has worked once in the
past couple of years since he retired. Don was a full time VIN inspector when most of the paperwork
changes were implemented and he has a better grasp of the operation. He can work alone, which is
what he would be doing if/when we call him. I would like to keep Don on the books.
Dave
Thanks,
Since I don’t know anything about this guy, can you tell me the story? If he hasn’t worked for a while,
we should remove him, but why is he not working? Is it because he chooses not to or because we
have an issue with his work? If it’s simply a matter of him no longer being needed or wanting to work,
then I say go ahead and remove him.
I just want to be sure that we do it correctly so we create an issue for him to complain about.
Thanks
Captain,
VIN has a number of “On-Call” employees who from time-to-time fill in for VIN specialists in the
districts. Mr. Robert Watkins has not been available to assist us for several years and we would like to
take him off the books. Per Darlonna’s e-mail below we need permission from the chain-of-command
to end Mr. Watkins appointment.
Thank you,
Is something that I need to generate? I can bang one out quickly if there isn’t some boilerplate
available.
Good afternoon –
We will need an e-mail or IOC routed through the chain of command showing that you wish to separate
this employee. Once we receive that, HRD will need to send him a letter notifying him of this
separation.
Here is the language from the IFPTE Contract regarding on-call employees:
On-Call Employment
The Employer may fill a position with an on-call appointment where the work is intermittent in nature,
is sporadic and it does not fit a particular pattern. The Employer may end on-call employment at any
time by giving one (1) working day’s notice to the employee. On-call employees may schedule annual
leave and use sick leave they have accrued.
Thank you,
Darlonna Vaughan
I don’t see any reason why we can’t take him off the books.
Darlonna,
What would it take to put VIN Specialist Robert Watkins on inactive status?
Thanks,
Is there any reason we still have Bob Watkins as an intermittent VIN inspector? He hasn’t worked in
several years.
Thanks,
Dave
Due to Officer Watkins’s position change in April, we have expired his ATD record. Since his email
address is not in the global listing, I am sending the notification through you.
His ATD record has been changed with the following specifications:
*Please complete all TARs following the expiration date. Failure to do so WILL result in missing TARs.
*He will need to enter TARs from April 16th forward, since his ATD expiration date is April 15, 2010.
If Officer Watkins wishes to be placed back on ATD, he will need to submit a new ATD form detailing
his current shift, work schedule and activity information. He may access the form by clicking on the link
provided below. Please be sure the form has the proper authorization signatures before it is sent to
TAR Support.
Please direct any questions to the TAR Support mailbox. Thank you.

I spoke with AC Miller and Captain Berry about this. I have decided to send this to Captain Berry with
the understanding that no one else from his staff will view it or answer media inquiries related to
information that is on it. When inquiries come in, the protocol is for either Captain Berry to address it
or for him to refer the media to CID and we can tell them what we want to tell them. He is well aware
of the sensitive issues surrounding these cases.
I believe that our protocol is to not comment on cases that are ongoing so that keeps the information
from being revealed and potentially compromising our investigations.
Vicky, please add Captain Jason Berry to the distribution list. Thanks
Mike,
At one point this report was forwarded to GMR. Captain Berry and Bob Calkins would both like to
receive it. Do you have any conflicts with adding them to Vicky’s email list?

Captain,
After a couple minor negative issues in the Auto Theft Section, I thought I would make you aware of an
outstanding accomplishment.
Sgt. Swainson’s detectives nominated him for a Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office Letter of
Commendation Award for developing the Snohomish County Auto Theft (SNOCAT) unit “from the
ground up,” and the units continued successes. He was notified yesterday that he received the award.
He will receive the official award at the SCSO Annual Awards ceremony in January 2011.
This award is an outstanding reflection on EJ for his dedication and hard work with being selected for
the position and developing the multi-jurisdictional unit from a non-existing unit into an outstanding
success story. The award also has added meaning since the nomination came from his subordinates,
which shows the respect they have for EJ.

Sgt. Swainson,
Congratulations! You have been awarded a Letter of Commendation by the SCSO Awards Board for your
efforts to build the incredibly successful SNOCAT unit “from the ground up.” You were nominated by
your detectives.
I will be writing a citation for you in the near future. When that is complete, I will give a copy to Lt.
Speyer so you can be recognized for your fine work in front of your peers. You’ll also be officially
recognized at the SCSO annual awards ceremony in January 2011.

I don’t know anything about it, but if you call the guy listed at the bottom, (tell him you know me and
that you work with Captain Ginnard out of Marysville on stuff like this), he will give you information.
I just read this and thought you may want to look in to it.
Can you provide any additional information? Who are they looking for to coordinate this new venture?
What are the qualifications for a Coordinator for this program?

You are correct Dan-thanks for connecting the right folks with her.

Lt. Myer,
I checked on this lady and PCSO has not had any contacts with her with the exception she was a victim
in a vehicle prowl a while back.
I called Optum Health who handles Mental Health Services for Pierce County and they said they have
the resources to handle, either by verifying she is a current patient or contacting her. I am assuming
you do not want me to contact her myself about her alleged “crimes” but wanted to make sure before I
turned her information over to Optum Health personnel.
Thanks,

Dan,
On Monday, will you please review the attached letter and see if she might be known to local LE and
how they have handled her in the past. If she is not known, there may be reason to check on her well
being—not necessarily us, but locals to include mental health??? I am not sure what to do with this
one.
Thanks,

EJ,
Just wanted to say thanks for the great work you are doing with SNOCAT. It is obvious that you have
set the proper tone with your crew and they are responding. I know it can be difficult to get multi-
agency task forces to all row the boat in the same direction, but apparently you are doing just that.
It is especially impressive that your team nominated you. It is confirmation of your leadership and their
appreciation of you and their support of the mission. This is exactly why I am so blessed to be in this
division. I get the chance to work with people like you that come to work every day and do what it
takes to make things better. You are a valued member of our CID team and I am fortunate to have you
here.
Thanks EJ and great job. I am planning a trip to your area very soon and would like to meet your team

We are in receipt of your IOC dated May 13, 2010; we are currently going through the list which will

numbers while I checked Okanogan and Wenatchee. I did not see that CID was cc/d on the original
IOC and have sent the IOC and spreadsheet to our counterparts here in District 6 so they can check to
verify adjudication on their felony cases.
With that said, we do have one felony case that needs to have the evidence/blood to remain in the
system. Case number: 07-011455 – Valencia Morales is a Felony Vehicular Assault and the blood
needs to remain in the system. If you have any questions please give me a call or email. Thanks Kandi
Captain Dahl: Each district was given a list of cases from 2005-2007 which the Tox Lab has decided to

Those are the culmination of the Travis’s questions and my questions with your changes.
I am okay with fewer questions. If you want to combine the ones you point out below, that works for
me. Travis, thanks for doing this. I appreciate you taking the time.
Captains,
Here is the latest version. It currently stands at 13 questions, which in my humble opinion, is probably
too many.
I think questions 10 and 11 should be removed, questions 3, 4, and 9 are pretty similar (I would
eliminate one or two of these), and questions 5 and 6 are similar (maybe eliminate one or two of
these). Let me know what you want done…
· Question #1: Please describe your specific investigative experience and how you think it applies
to the job as a CID and OPS lieutenant:
· Question #2: Describe your leadership style and describe why it is successful:
· Question #3: Tell me about a time when you were faced with conflicting priorities. How did you
determine the top priority?
· Question #4: One time or another, we have all forgotten to do something important for an
internal/external customer. Tell me about a time when this happened to you recently. What did you
forget? What happened? How did you fix it?
· Question #5: Successful negotiation involves a give and take process that recognizes each
party’s needs. Describe a negotiation in which you reached a win-win solution with someone. What did
you do?
· Question #6: Tell us about a time when you worked with others to develop new and creative
ideas to solve a problem.
· Question #7: We all make decisions that turn out to be mistakes. Describe a work decision you
regret making. What did you learn from it?
· Question #8: If you could choose between the OPS and CID lieutenant positions, which would
you choose and why?
· Question #9: Please describe your experience in managing a comprehensive project.
· Question #10: What recommendations would you give to the captain to ensure fiscal
accountability for the money budgeted to the division?
· Question #11: Please describe accountability driven leadership (ADL) and give an example of

AC Miller,
As a reminder, I will be on AL tomorrow through next Tuesday. Lt. Myer will be acting and can help
you or Ms. Greene with any CID issues.
As Julie said, I just signed the training request for Cunningham to attend. I am aware of Force Science
from my time in IA and they are a respected group.
I support having more of our folks attend if possible. I also believe IA should send people.
When Gary Barnes was investigated we had Force Science weigh in and they were very helpful.
Mike

I normally wouldn’t take up you time, but I just became aware that the Seattle Police Officer's Guild and
the King County Police Officer's Guild are presenting/hosting a 2 day seminar exploring "Force Science,
the application of unbiased scientific principles and processes designed to determine the true nature of
suspect provocation and officer response (action-reaction dynamics). The goal of the program is to
encourage law enforcement professionals to apply the important concepts revealed in this research
when investigating, reconstructing, recalling or otherwise analyzing a use of force." This seminar will be
held on June 29-30, 2010 at the Washington Criminal Justice Training Center Auditorium at 19010 1st
Ave. S., Burien, WA 98148.
I am sending you this information since I have attended this seminar in the past and found it very
useful. I believe that this seminar should be attended by all individuals that may be involved in an
officer involved critical incident (use of force).
For your convenience, I am enclosing a brochure. Additionally, you can find information on the CJTC
website (https://fortress.wa.gov/cjtc/www/classes/force_science_2day.htm). Finally, you can find out
more information about the Force Science Research Center at http://www.forensicscience.org
<http://www.forensicscience.org/> .
Finally, it is my understanding that the cost of the seminar is $205.00 per person.

FYI
Captain,
I apologize for the delay in getting the order out on the CDIU Pick up.
Here is the latest. At the time I received the approval to purchase the Colorado Pick Up the order bank
was closed. The vehicle will need to be purchased off contract which means we will need to go out to
bid which supply is in the process now. OSP (office of procurement) has approved the off contract
purchase. It is or will be very soon posted on WEBS for dealers to see and bid. They usually give the
dealers two weeks to respond. In short we should have a bid to approve in two to three weeks.

Captain,
Before your arrival AC Miller and I discussed coins for the D8 CIU folks for their work on the shooting.
Anyway, I had not heard any more about them…and checked with Geri yesterday. The chief is going to
present D8 FOB folks their coins next Thursday, June 10th at a D8 BBQ. I believe most of my
detectives will be there and more than anything do not want them to think for a minute they will not be
receiving one. I am working with Geri to figure out where they are and arrange to have them in D8 on
that date. I just wanted to let you know in case you are asked about it.
Thanks,
Julie
I’ll have to check with him. I don’t recall seeing a request for Chief’s Coins. A plaque for D-8 CIU was
just prepared and should be on its way to you guys soon (I sent the signed certificiate over to David
yesterday), but I didn’t know anything about coins. I’ll let you know.

Hi Geri,
I don’t want to bother AC Miller with this, but I do not know where the request is at for some chief’s
coins--I figured you probably knew! He and I had talked about awarding D8 CIU with chiefs coins for
the Johnson shooting. I know Chief Batiste is in D8 on June 10th and will be presenting coins to those
in FOB that are being recognized. My detectives are attending that meeting. It would be great if the
Chief could deliver theirs at that time. I just am not sure where they are. Thanks for checking!
Julie

Here are a few proposed dates for the after action review:

Please let me know which of those dates will work for you. We can push this out to July if needed but

Jay – I spoke with AC Hattell the other day regarding this and waiting until after CID’s meeting on the
9th would be best. When you have time, can you please arrange the date toward the last week or two

I have been waiting until you were on-board to have a discussion regarding an IMT after-action
debriefing regarding the Scott Johnson Shooting. As you can see from the email below – Steve Turcott
volunteered to facilitate the meeting, which would be a great benefit. Additionally, the bottom email
introduces the key IMT members to the concept – knowing it would take a few months to coordinate. I
would suggest that we keep the room pretty tight, in terms of who will be there. Here are my
suggestions:
Capt. Gundermann
Capt. DePalma
Lt. Winchell
Lt. Rethwill
Lt. Myer
Lt. Bosman
Lt. Matheson
Lt. Alexander
Lt. Rupke
Sgt. Mead
Sgt. Conley
Once we have this complete and we have identified what went right and what we could have done
better, I would like to merge it with my command after-action and CID’s after-action to present a final
report to the exec staff. I am wondering if we can pull this off on June 3rd after SAF? Say 1230-330?
Let me know what your thoughts are – thanks!
Steve
Good afternoon from the Olympic Coordination Center! Thanks for including me in the e-mail regarding
the after-action debrief!
If you already have an agenda and a completed plan, please disregard what follows. Otherwise, here
are my ideas for consideration.
First, Priority One would be to set the right tone to promote meaningful participation. I would hope to
pursue lessons that will help us (statewide) in the future. It's more about what happened, not so much
about WHO did things right or wrong (other than this can be a valuble part of your effort to make sure
that positive recognition gets to everyone who earned it). If I'm facilitating, my uniform of the day
ought to be business casual. We'll need food and beverages. Might be good to heap the praise on
where possible. I want this to be seen as a positive experience that helps us all do better as a result of
the hard work of those who were involved in the response.
1. Intro (our objectives, agenda, exits and facility information; set the right tone to encourage
meaningful participation) 4 minutes
2. Introductions of participants 5 minutes?
3. Scribe uses four easel pads to record the following lists: "do this again", "find a better way",
questions, ideas. I would not be worried about how clean the distinction is between these categories.
The point is to get things written that we want to use later.
4. Situation review
1. recognition of incident objectives (whether they were formally established &
documented or merely intuitively pursued) 5-10mins
2. identify strategies pursued in support of each objective (again, whether this was a
formal process or informal) 5 mins
3. how the effort was organized (the organizational chart) 3 minutes per operational
period
4. span of control 10 minutes
5. documentation 5 minutes
6. duty hours worked 5+ minutes
7. incident facilities 3 minutes
8. command structure (meaning specifically "unified command") 5-10 minutes
9. public information 5+ minutes
10. safety 4 minutes
11. assisting agencies and liaison issues 10+ minutes
12. Operations 25 minutes
13. Planning 10 minutes
14. Logistics 10 minutes
15. Finance/Admin 3-5 minutes
1. things done well, or immediately implementable process improvements, that can be
done in detachments, radio, district command, CID today or tomorrow
That's what I offer as a starting place, though I don't know if you needed it or not.
Do you want to bring this project to the attention of my boss or shall I?
Steve

officer safety."
________________________________
First and foremost, I would like to personally thank you all for your unbelievable response to the
shooting incident and subsequent investigation involving Trooper Scott Johnson. Without question, the
WSP team/family responded swiftly and with a purpose.
As with every critical incident, it is essential that we obtain information from our response to provide
lessons learned moving forward. However, since there is still an on-going criminal investigation, I do not
want to compromise the work being done by CID in order to facilitate this important component of the
process. While we wait for the appropriate time, please begin to organize and document your thoughts
and suggestions so we can be prepared once a date has been set. Simply, be prepared with details
regarding; 1) What went right 2) What went wrong 3) How can we close the gap and learn for the next
one.
Additionally, please have conversations with your staff and/or assisting agencies that also assisted. We
will not be including first-line personnel in the actual debrief, as there were hundreds of responders.
However, their observations are surely needed in order to help us obtain the information to complete
the after-action report.
Again, thank you all for your work and most importantly your leadership!

Subject: Skagit County Shooting
Date: Tuesday, June 08, 2010 3:25:00 PM
AC Miller,
Sgt Marken decided not to have CSRT respond after all. He determined the scene is very small and well
contained. The evidence is shell casings and possibly a weapon from the suspect. (Yet to be
determined). They are going to process the scene and get the evidence to the crime lab.
Apparently the suspect was hiding in the 4 foot high brush adjacent to the house and was shot while in
there. Marken and his team have already secured the warrant and are currently mapping the scene
while waiting for the M.E. to arrive. ETA for that is 30 minutes.
Once the M.E. is done, we can go in and retrieve the weapon if there is one. For now, all the resources
that we need are on scene and things are going well.
Either I or Lt. Myer will update you when we know about the weapon.
The MOU that was signed in August of 2009 has the new criteria.

Subject: RE: FBI MOUs
Date: Friday, June 11, 2010 2:35:00 PM
CPT D, this is a couple of agreements assigned a WSP detective to a federal task force in Spokane -
I’ve got a copy of one of the agreements back. The one I have has the detective’s initials on the
document; I’d like to give that copy to you and keep a copy with the initials whited-out on file down
here. I’ll seal it in an envelope marked “confidential” and put it into distribution for you if that’s OK.
Vicky, I’ll fedex them myself to FBI-Spokane – my only concern was that the WSP undercover officer
needed to initial one of the MOUs; if the FBI wants that they can pretty much get him to do it
themselves.
Thanks,
Karen
PO Box 42601
Olympia WA 98504-2601
Karen, can you check on the status of these MOUs? They went into the DC’s office on March 24.
Yes approval has been given from the top. We have already been participating and traveling on the
FBI’s dime.
Dennis can coordinate any other issue, I am back down in Long Beach for a couple of days.
Thanks for the help,
Steve
CPT D, I do need to send both documents to Shannon Inglis for her approval as to form – I’ll do it by
e-mail so it won’t take much time. She’ll be the only recipient.
Once these are signed by either the Chief or the DC I’ll hand carry them up to you for delivery to the
FBI. There is a spot for the undercover officer’s initial on one of the documents; how those initials get
on the original I’ll also leave up to you. My concern is that we have a copy back with the FBI’s
signature – I don’t particularly want a copy with the officer’s initials in my files.
This is the bill that we need to check on. It is possible that we did this, but we did not close the loop if we did. If you can
check on this and let me know, I can get it to AC Miller. We need to either confirm that we did this or that we are working on
it and then give a completion date. Thanks.

Let’s plan to meet sometime next week after you send the report. Thanks
The total amount of General Fund and State Patrol Hwy Account have been changed due to the cost
allocation in the 10 supplemental. Because of this there is more GF and less SPHA. I am
recommending to adjust the hard coding for FTEs so there isn’t a huge variance in GF and we end up
giving that money back to the state. I can explain this in our next budget meeting in further detail.
I will also be on vacation from June 21st – July 5th and the reports will be sent to you the week of June

“In late 2010 you were assigned as the primary MAIT investigator to reconstruct a fatal traffic crash for
the State Attorney General's Office. The crash occurred the year prior on SR 291 in Stevens County and
minimal scene documentation was prepared at that time. Despite this handicap, you took off on this
case and after over 166 hours of work produced a reasonable solution that included a roadway defect
that likely contributed to the cause. Your perseverence to utilize all of your skills was nothing short of
outstanding. Your conscientious efforts provided critical data to the AG to defend a $22,000,000 tort.”
“In November 2010 you instructed a 40-hour MAIT Post Crash Truck Inspection Training course at the
academy. This required over a month of preparation to include communication with the CVD, setting up
practical exercises, course outline, etc. This was no small undertaking and your perseverance despite
many obstacles made this class a success. Your efforts clearly improved the investigative abilities of all
students and forged an enhaced partnership with the CVD.”

Hello, Friends;
I have received the proposal below regarding a possible change to Washington state law and I am
seeking your feedback in the interest of looking at the idea from all perspectives. The idea is being
floated by one of our DOL investigators and seems like an innovative approach to an old, longstanding
problem.
As most of you know, the Dealer & Manufacturer Services (DMS) division of DOL has been actively
pursuing unlicensed vehicle dealers (curbstoners). Over the last three-plus years this effort has evolved
into a wonderful partnership with the WSP’s Tow and Wrecking Yard inspection troopers and the WSP
VIN inspectors. The WSP initiated a Problem Oriented Public Safety (POPS) campaign specifically
targeting curbstoners who deal in rebuilt salvage vehicles who by law are required to take their vehicles
through the VIN inspection process. Based on information received from the WSP, the DMS compliance
officers have filed administrative actions and/or cease and desist orders on literally hundreds of
curbstoners. The penalties total well over a million dollars and there seems to be no end in sight.
The proposed process below would be another tool for law enforcement and regulators, such as DOL,
to use in combating crime and protecting consumers. This measure would also serve to protect the
business interests of the licensed dealers of Washington who abide by the many state laws and have
significant overhead.
You are receiving this email from me because I consider you a stakeholder in this effort. I am very
interested in hearing from you with pros and cons in this regard, based on your unique perspective in
the industry.
Sincerely;
Dan Devoe

Subject: Unlicensed Dealer Activity - Possible remedy
As a reminder of our discussion yesterday I want to reduce to writing Jeff Scheel’s suggestion to try and
deal with unlicensed dealer activity. He thinks that we should change the law to allow RTTO’s to tow
vehicles that are displayed for sale by persons that cannot prove that they are the registered owner or
have a secure power of attorney.
A person who sells a vehicle is presumed at law in this state to be the owner of the vehicle. However
frequently the seller of the vehicle has purchased the vehicle and the title is not in their name. It may
be on a bill of sale or AVR but the law requires the owner of the vehicle to have a title in his/her name.
Frequently the unlicensed seller does not put the title into their name. They are avoiding paying taxes
and not going on record as being connected to a vehicle that they purchased. However more important
is that the buyer is at risk for not getting the title, or possibly getting the wrong paperwork on the
vehicle. Once the sale goes down the seller is long gone with the money and has avoided paying the
proper title and license fees to the state.
Proposal:
If the vehicle is not titled in the person’s name who is on the title or on record at Washington State
Department of Licensing at the time the vehicle is displayed for sale then the RTTO could impound the
vehicle. The presumption is that the seller is not the legal owner of the vehicle. The only exception is if
the person selling the vehicle has a secure power of attorney.
Once the vehicle is impounded then only the registered owner can redeem the vehicle. Again the
assumption is that the seller is not the legal owner of the vehicle at the time the vehicle was displayed
for sale.
This proposed change would ensure that seller of the vehicle is the actual owner of the vehicle. This
will protect the citizens of this state from the fraudulent actions of unlicensed vehicle dealers. In
addition it would bring in a substantial amount of revenue since more titles would be produced. This
will provide a clear paper trail on the vehicles sold. In addition our IVIPS and IMAGE databases would
be able to link more vehicle activity to those people who are buying and selling motor vehicles as a
unlicensed business.
Where can I go from here to try and get the laws changed? Yesterday you mentioned perhaps the
associations for the RTTO and auto dealers would be interested in supporting this issue.

The total amount of General Fund and State Patrol Hwy Account have been changed due to the cost
allocation in the 10 supplemental. Because of this there is more GF and less SPHA. I am
recommending to adjust the hard coding for FTEs so there isn’t a huge variance in GF and we end up
giving that money back to the state. I can explain this in our next budget meeting in further detail.

Sirs,
The City of Seattle will be submitting an application for a BTOP (Broadband Technology Opportunity
Program)) Grant within the next two weeks in response to their receipt of a channel waiver from the
Federal Communications Commission. (FCC). The Commission’s rules for the use of these stimulus
funds limit their use for those public safety agencies personnel with primary response area within the
city. Seattle desires both to size the system appropriately to accommodate all potential public safety
activity and to seek funding to purchase the radio for all public safety personnel operating in the City.
Without at this point getting hung up on potential applications that would be used on the system (that
discussion will occur at some point in the near future), Seattle is asking for the number of personnel
that each of you have that operates (primary assigned duty) in the City. Uniformed or civilian, if there is
a need for a radio (these will primarily be data devices, and will likely be handheld), they are asking for
the numbers so they can complete the grant applications in time for the end of the month deadline for
submission.
At your earliest convenience, could I ask that you please provide me with your estimates of the number
of your personnel who are assigned in Seattle (again, this would be within the geographic limits of the
City) and your estimates of the number of radios that might be required.
Thank you.
Alan H. Komenski

within the City of Seattle, they need to know ASAP the number of uniformed and plain clothes WSP

Good Afternoon,
I am sure that most, if not all of you have reviewed the Chiefs bulletin describing the upcoming
furloughs. As the Chief said, you are all critical to the agency and as this negotiation was conducted, it
was expressed in several different ways how our agency has worked hard to meet the demands of a
shrinking budget. Several different proposals were sent forward but ultimately, furloughs of our
employees seem to be unavoidable.
I have heard the Chief say that the fight is not over and that the Executive staff is continuing to work
on alternatives. In the mean time however, we need to be prepared to absorb the furlough days as
outlined in the bulletin. For those of you that are directly affected, know that the agency fought hard
on your behalf to avoid it. For those that are not, please keep the others in mind as you go about your
business. On the days that they are furloughed, there will be work accumulating in the in box. When
you can, please take that work and help them with it or do it for them.
The best part of this division is the people. I am confident that we will do what we always do and that
is to find a way to rise above this. We are recognized as a supremely talented and dedicated division
and it is times like this when we are able to show why. The Lieutenants and I will continue to monitor
the progress of this issue as it unfolds.
I appreciate the continued hard work and dedication. Thanks for all that you do and for the way that
you do it. Below you will see a very well crafted email from Lieutenant Huntley that answers some
questions related to the furloughs. If you have other questions, please let your supervisor know and we
will work to get you the answers.
Sincerely,
Good Morning,
I know there have been a number of questions regarding the upcoming furlough days.
First and foremost, all of you are valued by the agency and please know that we all appreciate the hard
work you do every day. As you saw by the Chief’s e-mail we have been placed in an unfortunate
circumstance of putting some of our folks on furlough for a number of days throughout the year.
Each of should be receiving a letter with more details than I can provide here.
Hopefully the following will address some of your questions (thanks to Capt. Sutton and Det. Sgt.
Huntington for getting these from HRD):
1. What happens when the furlough day occurs on the employee’s regular day off?
2. One of the effected employees is scheduled for LPO on a furlough day – how do we handle that?
Same as above
3. What does the employee do if the furlough day occurs on a vacation day?
Leave will be rescinded for that day – and leave without pay coded
4. Several of the effected employees are on either 4/10’s and or flex 9’s – do we put them on 5/8’s
to lessen the impact?
Employees on 4/10’s will have the option to move to 5/8’s for the week. The flex 9’s are more
complicated – guidance forthcoming
5. Several of our commissioned folks have offered to “donate” leave on the furlough days – was/is
that considered?
Employees that make less than $2500/month will be eligible to receive shared leave
This looks fine Vicky. I think this will help Ron come up with plans and devices that fit our needs. I
also want to see the price comparison. Hopefully we can save a little money and improve service. At
the very least, there are two phones on here that we appear to be paying for that no one is using. The
VIN Sergeants spot and the HQ Sergeants phone.
Can someone tell me what the HQ Sergeant spot is and why we have a cell phone for someone that
doesn’t exist? Thanks
For your review and approval, before I send it to Verizon Rep Ron Palmer.
I have attached one with information for BB’s for all units, except for VIN. The other is for BB’s for all
Sergeants and Auto Theft Units, and cells for rest of the detectives. I have included information for the
current plan, average minutes used in a three month period, services needed. If I am forgetting
something or need to add more info, please let me know.

acceptable. In the past it was much more freely; however, over the past couple years it has been more
closely limited due to the tightening of BFS/OFM regulations for purchasing meals. Hope this helps ...

Also, a PowerPoint presentation showcasing CID functions from 8:00 – 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, June

present on its other functions prior to IAD on June 30th for an hour would be good too if that time is
available. As I recall from tours in the past, we did a PowerPoint presentation providing an overview of
our division. Is that what you would have in mind?
Thanks,

Hi Vicky!
Did CID decide to not have a Legislative Tour this year? Government and Media Relations would like to
include your section if you are interested.
This year, we limited the tours to the sections that submitted LARS and also to those willing to host a
Legislative Tour. Just FYI---IAD will be hosting a tour on Wednesday, June 30, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00
p.m. If your section would like to showcase a particular program (such as the Auto Theft Program)
maybe a brief tour on that same day from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. OR from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.
would be possible while the Legislators are in our building. Or, maybe one of the dates still available at
the bottom of this e-mail would be better?
Please forward this information to the appropriate person if you are not my contact. Government and
Media Relations are drafting the invitation on Friday, May 7, 2010 and will be sending the final version
to the Governor’s office, Legislators and Stakeholders on Friday, May 14, 2010. Thank you for your
assistance!

Government and Media Relations are in the process of organizing Legislative Tours and, in the interest
of making them more efficient and cost effective, combining several sections on each tour. We
recommend your section have ONE tour this summer.
The Legislative Tours are aimed at providing the Governor’s office, Legislators and our Stakeholders the
opportunity to see firsthand the Washington State Patrol’s need for additional funding and also provide a
comprehensive look at the important services that we provide to the public. The tours are limited this
year based on the LARS submitted and the sections willing to host a tour to showcase their programs
and their day-to-day operations.
Please review and let us know if you would be available to host ONE tour on any of the dates below:
We will choose the ONE day that will work for all of the sections (addressed in this request) to give
their presentations, in their respective areas. At this time, we are just confirming a date and will keep
you posted on the details closer to the tour date. We will be making the arrangements for the
transportation between the Criminal Records Division and the GA Building for the Legislators. Thank you
for your assistance.

FYI – My advice would be not to deal with this individual if he has the propensity to be deceptive with
us. The attachment showed some statistics of road closure times that look promising, but additional
statistics should be researched and compared in my view.
Chuck
Julie
- You might find this an interesting read… total station and photogrammetry compliment each other,
but the “time in the road”, is proven quicker, with photogrammetry. The story below was with
Wyandotte PD and Michigan S.P. last week in Detroit.
- Note: Bob Snook (who I’m writing to below) is recently retired CHP MAIT Sgt. CHP MAIT is interested
in iWitness, but they are so “broke”, they’ve cut off all training and travel – they are probably in no
position to implement anything.
The attached are stats that Major Tom Melville (Indiana S.P.) shared with me, re: his Indiana S.P.
Troopers use of iWitness, specifically relating to “quick clearance”.
Lee
________________________________
Bob,
Just back from iWitness training Michigan SP and Wyandotte PD last week. During the training, the
Detroit PD crashed one of their cruisers eastbound on I-96. We decided that a “real crash” was the
best training we could possibly do in our workshop. It took about 15 minutes to get to the crash (here
it is on the web):
http://www.wxyz.com/dpp/news/region/detroit/two-detroit-police-officers-injured-in-serious-crash
Although I was asked by MSP not to share the diagramming measurement results, it is certainly OK to
talk about the “time on scene”. The 4 lanes of I-96 were closed three times. Once, to paint the critical
speed yaw mark, and the second & third time to measure the paint via TS and Photogram. I was pretty
careful to document the time of the total station Vs iWitness (photogrammetry) for the:
The I-96, 4 lanes were closed about 4 minutes to paint, and pull the cord middle ordinate (that MSP
measured via tape)…. The 3 of 4 lanes then reopen to traffic.
Next, the road was closed for about 9 minutes, where the total station (2 troopers) measured the paint
in the 4 lanes. To be honest, I was actually quite surprised how quick they were - - credit to a well-
disciplined AR team. However, then it was my “turn” to work with MSP, and again they closed the I-69
(4 lanes) and with (1) digital camera, it took 3 minutes to image the 4 closed lanes of traffic “paint
dots”. So the road was effectively closed to do the imaging for 3 minutes (iWitness / digital camera),
Vs the total stations 9 minutes -- (photogrammetry was two-thirds faster). This “two-thirds” faster on
scene is pretty much a “common theme” reported by police (see attached). Attached is an “unofficial
report” provided to me from Major Tom Melville of the Indiana S.P on their Indiana S.P. use of
iWitness-photogrammetry over the last 1-year. More InTime info is here:
http://www.indianaquickclearance.org/index.php/page/4.html
Major Mellville can be reached at: TMelville@isp.IN.gov -- he’s mentioned in email to me, that he’d be
happy to talk to CHP about “photogrammetry in incident management” – use by ISP. I encourage you
to have the CHP MAIT contact him:
317-232-8307 Office
In summary, we didn’t even have the proper ancillary tools to measure via iWitness (note: there was
tall grass on the shoulder you’ll see in the TV news video clip) that would have been better to be
imaged via “FMTs” (http://www.iwitnessphoto.com/products/field_marker.html). The on-scene
measurement time was still about 50% faster using iWitness Vs TS (and that was without the proper
ancillary “photogrammetry” tools).
The iWitness result was “3D transformed” into the total station coordinate system, overlaid in CAD and
the TS and iWitness agreed within .09’ RMS over a distance of about 300’ of measured distance. It
took about 2.5 hours in the hotel room (one person) to measure the iWitness work – which would have
been even faster with the proper “ancillary targets”.
PS – at the same time of the DCS – iWitness photogrammetry workshop and the I-69 crash, another
unit of the MSP was called out to another scene - (a fatality), and the MSP Trooper used the TS and
also “digital camera” imaged for use in iWitness. Reportedly, the Trooper was distracted during his TS
work, and he forgot to measure some critical evidence (again, I won’t go into specifics other than the
“back-up” to his TS scene-diagramming was the iWitness imaging). The trooper didn’t even have the
focal length correct on the digital camera lens (it should have been set to 18mm, and conversely, he
had it set to 55mm focal length). After the fact, we calibrated the camera at 55mm in our
photogrammetry class, and proceeded to measure the evidence he forgot with using the total station.
We then put the iWitness measurements in the same coordinate system as the TS, and the results of
the “missing TS measurements” were “added” via the iWitness-photogrammetry work. Check distances
of the two systems agreed better than .009’ RMS.

________________________________
Mike/Dennis:
I believe Wes captured correctly (below) what we discussed a year ago regarding purchase of meals. I
normally respond to an e-mail such as his and can’t find where I did.
I highlighted and underlined what I feel are key points in Wes’ e-mail below. Honestly, my
expectations for “specific justification” were as we discussed IN ADDITION TO the statement that Wes
makes below that “Food/Refreshments purchased during protracted search warrant/undercover
operation where scene/operation integrity was critical.”.
I think what occurred was perfectly acceptable, and I apologize for any confusion or frustration caused.
We were just looking for a little more justification. For instances such as these in the future, I would
advocate a little more verbiage with specifics about the situation. What would be most helpful is a list
of the names and agencies of the individuals who were provided meals or refreshments (normally the
OFM regulations require that). If confidentiality prevents that, then a simple list of positions and agency
should be included in the justification. As an example: “Meals (or refreshments) were provided to 3
WSP undercover detectives, 2 King County Sheriff’s Deputies and one Seattle PD Officer.”
Sir – Good afternoon … Hope all is well. During my unannounced imprest fund audit today, it was
suggested that I include you in this email that I sent out to our imprest fund holders after Captain Davis
and I met with you in early May. Thanks and take care/Wes
Good afternoon – The week before last I had a lengthy meeting with BFS regarding the
use/reconciliation of CID Imprest/Street Funds … It was brought to my attention that the use of
Imprest/Street Funds needs to be curtailed to a much narrow scope. No longer can we use
Imprest/Street Funds to purchase snacks/refreshments for warrant services/raid briefings unless pre-
approval from BFS (using the attached pre-approval request form) is obtained for such purchases
(unfortunately, no longer associating the purchase with a criminal case number works).
In discussing the issue with BFS, we still have the flexibility to purchase limited amounts of
food/refreshments using Imprest/Street Funds while at the scene of extended warrant
services/operations where it is not feasible to release workers to get food/refreshments on their own.
In these limited circumstances/situations the pre-approval request can be bypassed and Imprest/Street
Funds can be used; however, specific justification, along with the criminal case number, must
accompany the replenishment/reconciliation request (A-19) … Wording such as (or something very
similar to) “Food/Refreshments purchased during protracted search warrant/undercover operation
where scene/operation integrity was critical – WSP Case # XX-XXXXXX) … Please refrain from using the
word “Emergency” to justify any replenishment/reconciliation … The use of this word automatically
triggers additional responsibilities that will have to be provided/justified to the Governor’s Office … We
do not want to go down that road!
With that said, I know several of you have replenishments/reconciliations pending from over the length
of the current biennium … Since we are close to the end of the biennium (June 30, 2009) I am
requesting that everyone needing replenishment/reconciliation for this biennium submit their A-19s thru
your sergeants to me ASAP. Once the A-19s are submitted, please do not spend any additional
Imprest/Street Funds until after the start of the new biennium (July 1, 2009). Once the new biennium
starts then expenditures can be made and replenishments/reconciliations can/shall be done on a
quarterly basis throughout the biennium. I know full well that several of you have expenditures dating
back to the start of the current biennium … I have advised BFS of this and because they have changed
their direction from what we have been allowed to do in the past, they will allow me to submit the
outstanding replenishments/reconciliations as a group, so it’s imperative to complete/forward them to
me ASAP or you will not be reimbursed and have to cover the expended funds out of your own pocket!
In addition, for those of you who made food/refreshment purchases for warrant services/raid briefings,
please utilize wording similar to my example above on you’re A-19s to justify the expenditures. Once I
get all the A-19s in, I will process/ forward them directly to the BFS director for approval.
I realize this creates extra work for everyone; however, maintaining compliance with OFM rules is
paramount for us maintaining the ability to have Imprest/Street Funds for our investigative positions.
Please contact me if you have any questions … Thanks for your understanding and support/Wes

Subject: Weekly Reports
Date: Monday, June 21, 2010 3:46:00 PM
AC Miller,
I have been reviewing the cases and information on the CID Weekly and Confidential Reports that we
send out to you and the Executive Staff. You and I have discussed the information on those reports
and the updates including the ones that say “no change.”
I am proposing that we only produce those reports twice per month instead of every week. The amount
of staff time needed to produce the reports and run down the supervisors for updates is at times,
excessive. In many cases, the update is no change because there is no change that occurs in just one
week. It is more likely that we would see change or be able to prompt the slower Prosecutors every
other week and therefore have a more accurate report.
I understand the importance of keeping all of the Executive Staff up to date, but I am certain we can
accomplish that by moving to this once per week format. I know that both OPS and IAD do this now
and it seems to work just fine. The items that change or are fluid in between reporting times are
updated to you and the other Executive Staff immediately through email and that will not change.
By changing, we will provide you and the rest of the people on the distribution list a copy of our update
every other week. My Lieutenants are currently reviewing the format and trying to come up with the
best and most easily read document so that we do not have confusing or inaccurate/out of date
information on the report.
I appreciate your consideration and please let me know if you need additional information.
I have LPO in the morning, but my afternoon is free. I can meet from 2-3.
Hello Captains,

Thanks,
Prior to sending the clarification to the CID personnel who are assigned imprest funds, could you please
review the information to make sure I have captured the discussion we had on the use of imprest funds
for purchasing refreshments or meals.
I am providing additional guidance that we received on the use of imprest funds for purchasing meals
and/or refreshments. Imprest funds cannot be used to buy refreshments for pre-raid briefings, meeting
refreshments, or meals at conferences. If you need to use imprest funds in those situations, you will
need to seek prior approval by completing the appropriate form, which is available on the Budget and
Fiscal Services website, and getting the appropriate approval before the funds are used.
Imprest funds are only to be used in very limited circumstances for buying refreshments or meals at
warrant operations. The warrants operations must be for an extended timeframe where it would not be
feasible to release personnel to leave the scene to obtain food on their own. On those rare occasions
where you need to use imprest funds to purchase refreshments or meals, you need to document the
specific justification along with the criminal case number on the A-19 form. (i.e.: Food/Refreshment
purchased during a protracted search warrant operation at ________________(location), which lasted
__ hours, and the scene/operation integrity was critical – WSP case #__-______. Meals were provided
to # WSP undercover detectives, # Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office deputies, and # Olympia PD
Officer.)
DO NOT USE the word emergency! This word triggers additional responsibilities and timeframes with
completing the paperwork that will need to be provided to the Governor’s Office.
Thank you for your understanding and awareness on this situation and the agency’s responsibility of
complying with the regulations and procedures placed upon us.
Please let me know if I covered everything we discussed or if you have any additional input prior to
sending the information to our personnel.
Thanks,

Don’t want to seem like I am dumping it, I just don’t have the technical ability. OPS is probably the

know your thoughts.

Captain Davis was the CITE/Remedy business owner which means my boss and I would meet with him
about once per month and I’d give him an update on where we were with various projects and needs
for CITE and the other Remedy applications and he would let us know if we were going in the right
direction or spearhead things like finding money for a new server, etc.
I’m guessing that this now falls to you since you took over his position, if you think it belongs elsewhere
let me know, otherwise I’ll schedule a meeting for the end of the month.

most frequent customer too and when I was there, we had Julie changing all kinds of things. Let me
know your thoughts.

Captain Davis was the CITE/Remedy business owner which means my boss and I would meet with him
about once per month and I’d give him an update on where we were with various projects and needs
for CITE and the other Remedy applications and he would let us know if we were going in the right
direction or spearhead things like finding money for a new server, etc.
I’m guessing that this now falls to you since you took over his position, if you think it belongs elsewhere
let me know, otherwise I’ll schedule a meeting for the end of the month.

The answer to your question is, “it depends.” If the road was not gated or gate was open, no signs
posted that stated it was private, and the public could get in there, it could be counted. If signs posted
clearly stated it was private, “do not enter,” “closed for winter,” and the person clearly went around the
sign then it would not be counted.
Based on the information provided in the report, and the fact it is a working logging truck involved on
this road (he was permitted to be in there as a place of work vs. just driving around a barrier, my bet is
that FARS will not take this, but will likely confirm with NHTSA. Usually Forest Service Roads are
counted in FARS, however, so many logging trucks do make it into the data set.
WSDOT will not include this in their data set, so that also would give FARS cause to lean towards not
counting it if truly “private”. Here is the difference in definitions:
WSDOT does not include cases where crash occurred more than 20 feet from trafficway.

Chief,
I spoke with Marcia and with Tracy Perkins at CRD. Right now it is listed on the recap but Tracy has an
email in to her FARS contact and expects to hear back today or early tomorrow.
It is likely to come off the recap due to the location it occurred and the fact it was a "primitive" logging
road.
I have been added to the distribution list from Tracy and when she know, I will forward the answer to
you.

Hello Commanders,
Attached is a sheet with talking notes for your employees put together for District Commanders in
regard to Office Closures for July 12 and August 6. The notice includes standardized language to be
posted on affected offices. Please see excerpt below and use the attached information for consistency
with the Districts.
Thanks,

To reduce confusion in the public, we need to communicate in a uniform fashion statewide that our
offices are closed and why. Citizens need to understand the office is closed to the general public for
routine requests, but our emergency services will remain.
Attached are two standardized notices. The first should be posted immediately at the public entrance,
upon receiving this IOC. The second attachment should be placed on all affected buildings where the
public may attempt to contact our agency on the day of the closure. Please apply this notice to the
WSP public entrance(s) during business hours on each day specified above.

Prior to me getting here, Captain Davis was the point of contact for CITE. He would meet with Julie

Since I am sure he had it because of his computer knowledge, I don’t feel I am the one to continue it.
I asked Captain DePalma if OPS would like to have this role and he could assign Travis to it. He agreed
since they are already working with Julie so frequently to modify CITE. The agreement was made that
Travis and one of our Lieutenants would handle this. Can you please coordinate with Travis and Julie
to set up the monthly meetings? Thanks.

We got this notification very late on Friday as you can see. We notified the CID group so that if they
wanted to attend the funeral, they could. AC Hattell was notified via email.
Since the turnaround time was so short for his funeral, we did not do a bulletin announcement. Is there
a reason to do one now that his funeral time has passed? I suspect that since we notified the CID
group, the word got out.

Retired VIN Inspector Thomas Tarmichael passed away yesterday from a heart attack. His funeral
service is scheduled for Monday, June 28th and the details are listed below. Thank you.
I spoke with Mary Ellen who told me that Tom passed away yesterday unexpectedly from a heart attack.
She advised he had retired from WSP in 2001 after 13 years as a VIN Inspector. His funeral is set for
Monday, June 28, 2010, at 10 a.m., at St. Peter’s Catholic Church, 2315 N. Main Street, Newburg,

The Chief forwarded the link to this article to Marty Knorr to consider from an IT standpoint. I wanted
to share the article as this has become a huge national issue.
By Allison Steele
Shortly after 10 a.m. on July 11, 2008, police and ambulances arrived at a crash on I-95 in Philadelphia
to find an uncommonly gruesome sight.
With five cars scattered in wreckage across both sides of the highway, traffic near the Bridge Street exit
was at a standstill. A pickup truck lay in the northbound lanes, its windshield shattered. A short distance
away was 50-year-old Ferdinand Ramirez Villaneuva, whose head had landed about a dozen feet from
his body.
Even for veteran police officers, seeing a dismemberment up close is unusual - so unusual that one
officer snapped a grisly photo of the mutilated body with his camera phone and sent it to someone. It's
unclear how many others saw the photo, but eventually it traveled to people who have no connection to
the accident, or to the man who died.
It's nothing new for police to take photos with personal cameras. Some veteran officers keep
scrapbooks, and some detectives used to carry cameras to snap pictures of scenes before the Crime
Scene Unit arrived, just to ensure that nothing got moved.
What has changed is the technology and the way people exchange information. Camera phones make it
easier than ever to distribute images, and officers can instantly forward pictures to colleagues, friends,
or family. Sending a photo via cell phone means the sender loses control of it and, from that point, has
no way of knowing where it will end up. In one case, family members received a photo of a relative's
dead body, and according to law experts, a photo landing on the Internet or in the wrong hands could
have legal ramifications.
Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey condemned the taking of personal photos at crime scenes,
calling it unprofessional and immature.
"I think it's pretty sick to take pictures of crime scenes when it's not part of your job," Ramsey said.
"It's ghoulish. And I can't figure out why you would want to remember some of that stuff. It's bad
enough that you have to see it in the first place."
The department's guidelines forbid officers from using personal camera phones to document scenes or
evidence. But whether due to a morbid fascination, a genuine interest in crime-scene photography, or a
desire to keep souvenirs from on-the-job experiences, some officers say, it happens all the time.
Short of confiscating officers' cell phones, the department can do little to prevent picture-taking. But
Ramsey said any officer caught doing it would be disciplined. He declined to elaborate, saying that the
punishment would depend on the circumstances and that officers who forward pictures sent by others
were subject to the same rules.
"Even if you didn't take it, you shouldn't forward it," he said. "You shouldn't add to the problem."
As camera phones and mobile Web-browsing have become ubiquitous, police organizations across the
country have started adapting their policies to keep up with technology. The Washington-based
International Association of Chiefs of Police issued guidelines last month on how officers should use
social-media sites such as Facebook and Twitter, but there was no mention of cell phones.
Officers have been caught sending inappropriate cell-phone pictures in a handful of police departments
elsewhere, including New Jersey, where a Sussex County appeals court in March upheld the 30-day
suspension of an officer who sent a photo from a murder-suicide investigation to a friend.
In addition to being a violation of department guidelines, Ramsey said, the behavior is demeaning to
victims and their families. "Would you want someone taking a picture of one of your loved ones?" he
said. "These guys need to think about that."
Ramirez Villaneuva and his wife, Anna Torres, were on their way home from the supermarket on that
morning in 2008 when an out-of-control Chevrolet Monte Carlo smashed into the back of their pickup
truck at an estimated 80 m.p.h.
The crash, which according to police was caused by a New Jersey man who was high on morphine, sent
Ramirez Villaneuva's truck crashing into the center barrier. The truck flipped into oncoming traffic,
throwing Torres from the car, and ejecting Ramirez Villaneuva through the windshield.
Torres, whose skull was fractured in the accident, learned last week that a picture of her husband's
body was taken and sent to others after the crash.
"I don't understand," she said in an interview in her Kensington home, speaking in Spanish, her eyes
filling with tears. "People saw it, but we didn't see it?"
Torres now struggles to pay her bills and, for months, suffered from headaches as a result of her
injuries. Her son, 30-year-old Ferdinand Ramirez Jr., said that if Torres had somehow seen the photo, it
could have brought on an asthma attack.
"I don't know why they would do that," Ramirez said. "Why did they do that?"
Investigators from the Crime Scene Unit have the official task of taking evidentiary photographs after a
crime has taken place, documenting every inch of a scene.
But last summer, after a local newspaper got hold of a photograph of skeletal remains, it came to
Ramsey's attention that others were taking pictures on the job. An investigation revealed that an officer
was responsible, said Anthony DiLacqua, chief of the Internal Affairs Division. That officer was
disciplined, though DiLacqua would not specify how.
In September, as a result of the incident, Ramsey added a directive to the department's guidelines,
prohibiting the use of privately owned cameras or other devices to record scenes or evidence while on
duty.
But if it's hard to stop officers from taking pictures, it might be just as hard to catch them. Asked how
many officers have been investigated for taking crime-scene pictures, DiLacqua could think of only one.
The case of Daniel Giddings, who killed Officer Patrick McDonald in September 2008 before he was shot
by police, provides one example of how fast a camera-phone picture can travel.
In the hours after Giddings was shot by police in North Philadelphia, a picture of Giddings' bloodstained,
lifeless body circulated rapidly through the Police Department's cell phones. Again and again, people hit
"send" until the image spread beyond the police force.
One sergeant's mechanic received the picture. A lieutenant returned home to find someone had sent it
to his teenage daughter. And soon enough, members of Giddings' own family received it on their
phones.
Giddings' mother, Theresa Bryant, said no one in the family recognized the phone number attached to
the picture. But they assumed a police officer was behind it.
"I guess they got a thrill out of it," Bryant said. "They might have thought it was funny that he was
laying there dead on the ground. But it wasn't funny to me."
Because Giddings died, there was no ongoing investigation into McDonald's death. But legal experts said
photographs of evidence in an open case, such as the accident that killed Ramirez Villaneuva, could
have a legal effect.
L. George Parry, a defense attorney who formerly headed the police corruption unit for the District
Attorney's Office, said cell-phone photos could create trouble for prosecutors if they became public.
"It certainly could raise questions for defense counsel," he said. "As an attorney, you want to get every
possible picture of a crime scene, and usually people try to control those scenes for that reason. If you
have these 'freelance' photographers running around, it may turn out that there are things in these
pictures that don't fit the prosecution's case."
Parry knew some Philadelphia officers who took pictures of scenes in the 1970s, some of whom seemed
to do so out of apparent amusement or scorn for the victim. But Parry speculated that many officers
who take pictures may not do so maliciously, but in a misguided attempt at processing a disturbing
reality.
"Officers get desensitized to the not-nice aspects of life," Parry said. "A few short miles from where you
and your family live, you're plunged daily into this world where terrible things happen. It's very
disorienting, and to react like this may be a type of coping mechanism."
Whatever the reasons, Parry said, the behavior is basically impossible to control.
"You can't stop cops from sleeping on the job, you can't stop cops from going into a bar and having a
few nips while on the job, but you try to enforce these things," Parry said. "There has to be some sense
that this isn't acceptable.
"It really goes to the professionalism of the department," he added. "It makes them look very bad. That
dead body there was somebody's loved one, and people are entitled to a little more dignity than to be
used as objects of entertainment."

Commanders,
This is a follow-up to Friday’s e-mail regarding temporary layoffs. Please ensure all commissioned
officers under your command who are represented by the WSPTA and WSPLA (troopers through
captain) are notified of the following:
There have been a few questions asked if WSPTA and WSPLA bargaining unit members, who are on the
list of positions subject to temporary layoffs, will or will not be participating in temporary layoffs on July
12 and August 6.
The WSPTA and WSPLA contracts do not contain language concerning Temporary Layoffs. Therefore,
we are required to bargain this issue in compliance with RCW 41.56. Until such bargaining obligations
are concluded, employees represented by the respective Associations will not be subject to temporary
layoffs. It is unlikely that these negotiations will be concluded prior to July 12, 2010. HRD will inform
you of the results of these negotiations once they have been completed.

Terry,
This is a great answer. Very detailed and precise, thanks. I appreciate it.
Captain,
The decision was made at the initial on-set of the investigation, that they wanted us to handle the
collision investigation as the deaths occurred as a result of the pursuit involving several of their officers.
We conducted the on-scene collision investigation with the assistance of their traffic unit personnel.
The entire event began with a minor injury collision involving a stolen vehicle. The suspect then stole
another vehicle and in the pursuit, was involved in three other collisions, all minor or non-injury. The
Yakima Police Department handled all three of these collisions.
All the collisions and thefts are going to be combined with our investigation for the final report. They
are more than comfortable with us handling the fatal collision, and combining all the events into one big
report as they are all inter-related. The prosecutors prefer to have us as the lead on this for the
transparency and the quality of the investigative work our unit does. Coupled with the fact that they do
not have anyone on their staff with the experience to put together a felony level collision investigation.
Their command staff approved the watch commanders request for our involvement on the afternoon of
the collision, and the Yakima County Sheriff’s Department does not have an issue with us putting
together the file, as they too lack the expertise to prepare and present a case such as this one. The
right of first refusal is not an issue on this one.

Terry,
Is Yakima taking this since it is a Murder charge? We need to have their command weigh in since this
is no longer just a Veh. Hom..
We have no issues with taking it I’m sure, but it sounds like one we need to give them the right of first
refusal on.
Thanks Terry,
The Yakima County PA amended the Vehicular Homicide charges to Murder as was expected. Thanks.

Amber,
Can you please let me know if you plan to put a bulletin announcement out today? I wrote part of the
announcement, but it needs more information. I suspect that HRD is in contact with the family and you
guys can come up with the rest of the announcement. Thanks and let me know if you have any
questions.
Retired VIN Inspector Thomas Tarmichael passed away unexpectedly on Thursday June 24th, 2010.
Thomas retired from the WSP in 2001 after 13 years of service. His funeral was held today in Newburg,
Oregon and he will be interned at Willamette National Cemetery in Portland.
Thanks Mike,
I see that HRD was looped in. Can you please ask Amber if she intends to put out a DB even though
the funeral is over? I imagine folks might like to know whether or not the family would appreciate
calls/cards.

AC Miller,
We got this notification very late on Friday as you can see. We notified the CID group so that if they
wanted to attend the funeral, they could. AC Hattell was notified via email.
Since the turnaround time was so short for his funeral, we did not do a bulletin announcement. Is there
a reason to do one now that his funeral time has passed? I suspect that since we notified the CID
group, the word got out.
Mike
Retired VIN Inspector Thomas Tarmichael passed away yesterday from a heart attack. His funeral
service is scheduled for Monday, June 28th and the details are listed below. Thank you.
I spoke with Mary Ellen who told me that Tom passed away yesterday unexpectedly from a heart attack.
She advised he had retired from WSP in 2001 after 13 years as a VIN Inspector. His funeral is set for
Monday, June 28, 2010, at 10 a.m., at St. Peter’s Catholic Church, 2315 N. Main Street, Newburg,
Oregon, 97132, with internment at 1 p.m. at Willamette National Cemetery in Portland, Oregon. I
advised Mary Ellen that we would be unable to get the information in today’s Daily Bulletin, but would
send it out to the D-5 Retiree’s e-mail group that we keep locally. I have spoken with Amber and HRD
will be contacting Mary Ellen. I have left you a message and am awaiting your call. Thanks.
Good Morning,
I just got a call from Mary Ellen Tarkalson who wanted to notify us that retired Vin Inspector Thomas
Tarmichael passed away and she wanted to get the information to his former co-workers.
They are still working out the funeral arrangements. I told her I would pass the information to you
since I did not know who he belonged to (as a retiree).

Thanks,
Captain:
Can this wait until Tuesday when Captain DeWitt returns from vacation? I do know this has been a
topic of discussion in the recent past when the Captain was here. One problem we have is space/room
at the Moses Lake office for another person. She would not have an office to herself, but would have
to share one with the VIN/TOW personnel. The other issue that came up was she would not be here
at the District for us to use as the front desk help or when one of the other professional staff is out of
the office. She has certain responsibilities here at the district that she would not be able to do in Moses
Lake. Those were only a couple of items I could remember from our last discussion about Mel.
If you would like more input from Captain DeWitt she will be back in the office on Tuesday since
Monday is a Holiday.

I am OK with her being housed in Moses Lake and continuing to assist FOB, but we can discuss.

Subject: Officer behavior
Date: Tuesday, June 29, 2010 11:24:00 AM
Another example of how behavior of our officers can come back to bite them.
CLARKSVILLE, Tenn., --
Photos that circulated on the Internet have two Clarksville Police detectives under investigation. The
pictures appear to show the detectives with alcohol, weapons and a young child dressed up in a police
uniform.
The photos came to Clarksville Police Chief Al Ansley’s attention late Friday afternoon. He immediately
contacted one of the detective's supervisors to get to the bottom of what took place in the photos.
One of the photos shows Detective Vincent Duke holding what appears to be a police-issued weapon,
posing in front of his patrol car and not in uniform.
In another photo, there's a boy dressed in a Clarksville police uniform, including a hat.
In another photo that surfaced online Friday, Detective Ginger Fleischer is seen making an obscene
gesture while being handcuffed and standing in front of the child, still in uniform.
Other photos show non-officers playing with the weapons, posing with the child and drinking alcohol.
“The chief, as soon as he found out, just like every action he takes to maintain the integrity of the
police department, he immediately started looking into it," said Officer Jim Knoll said, Clarksville Police
spokesman.
Police are looking into why the photos surfaced more than a year after they were taken and where they
were taken.
But even though police aren't certain of the exact location or date, they are certain of one thing.
“Both these officers were off-duty when this occurred. They certainly weren't on the clock; they were
off-duty,” Knoll said. “Both of these are top-notch officers. I mean, they are good detectives, they work
hard and they give their all to the department, so these are good officers we are talking about.”
Right now, the detectives are being investigated to determine whether their actions in the photos violate
any of the Clarksville Police Department's policies.
Both officers are not on leave during this investigation, but Ansley said they will be held accountable if
any wrongdoing is discovered.
Police don't know at this point how long the investigation will take.

Vicky,
You did this last year, so if you want Angela to get a chance at it, let me know. When you decide, we
can forward that name to Lt. Turcott along with the request that he change Steve Davis’ name out and
add mine.
Thanks,
Division/District Commanders:
I am proud to be serving as this year’s Washington State Patrol Combined Fund Campaign Leader.
2010 will be the 26th year of the Combined Fund Drive. This year’s campaign will run September 15 to
November 30. Last year, in spite of tough economic times, state agencies raised more money than in
2008.
The purpose of this email is to identify who will be the Combined Fund Local Coordinator for your
division/district. To assist in selecting your local coordinator for 2010, the attached Excel file lists the
coordinators for 2009.
This is a great opportunity for your employees to help others, and to develop their planning,
organization, and communication skills. And it can be a lot of fun. Successful Local Coordinators are
enthusiastic, positive, well respected, and are comfortable asking others to get involved.
* Ensure all employees have the information needed to decide whether or not to participate in the
CFD.
* Report back to the Agency CFD Coordinator (Lt. Mike Turcott) on division CFD efforts.
* Conduct brainstorming sessions to make the CFD a success as well as come up with ideas for
fundraisers.
Please provide me with the name of your division/district Local Coordinator no later than July 9th so that
I can get them the information they need. If you have any questions or need additional information
about the Combined Fund Drive, please don’t hesitate to give me a call or visit the CFD website
(www.cfd.wa.gov <http://www.cfd.wa.gov/> ).

Subject: RE: Hotel accommodations for Presba
Date: Tuesday, June 29, 2010 2:23:00 PM
Yes, if he is needed for the trial, let’s put him in a hotel. I would like to only have him there when he is
needed though. The unit is already short one detective with Brian George leaving so having Dan gone
too will be tough.
No issues with him staying in a hotel, just want to make sure it is for the days he is actually needed.
Boss,
FYI – we may need to put Detective Presba up in a hotel in Clallam County while he testifies in this
attempted murder of a police officer trial. Otherwise, he will be generating on average, 3.5 hours of
overtime per day if he commutes. What do you think? I am inclined to put him up in a hotel and pay
the per diem just from the safety stand point.

I am requesting that we make accommodations for Detective Dan Presba for the upcoming Trial in
Clallam County. Over the past week alone he has put time and effort on his own time to be thoroughly
prepared for this first hearing. Today he has been assisting “the” Clallam County Prosecutor Deb Kelly
(who is a very supportive prosecutor for us) in the case prep. This office is very under staffed and the
only time we can talk with her is on the weekends or after hours. Today alone Detective Presba was
requested to be in the Prosecutors before 0730 hours and will be in the office after the 3.5 hearing to
start selecting the documents for the case in chief. Dan does give a lot of his own time as it is and I
think it would be most beneficial to the case and the Prosecutor to have him close. Dan has been
involved in many homicide Trial’s and will be an outstanding asset to the conviction of this suspect. If
he makes the daily commute we are adding a minimum of 3.5 hours per day for the anticipated 7 day
trial.
Case Info:
09-001029 Presba - (Clallam County) Clallam County Sheriff Deputy responded to a trespass call at
7551 SR112 near mile marker 7 in Neah Bay. The deputy was confronted by a male subject who shot
and struck the deputy. The deputy returned fire, striking the subject.
**UPDATE: June 29, 2010, 3.5 hearing. Trial is set for July 19 through 27th - Attempted Murder of a
Police Officer and 1st Degree Assault of a Police Officer**

Julie,
If what you are suggesting here is that our CITE entries that are related to our criminal investigations
would be visible to non CID people, I am not in favor of that. Even if it is high tech crimes.
I have been requested by IAD High Tech Crime Unit to make their Analysis log entries in CITE available
to the detectives of the case. The simplest way to do this would be to put all the log entries in one
place which would mean yours would be visible to them as well. If this is acceptable let me know. The
alternatives are 1) add a tab to let you see the Analysis Log entries, 2) put a copy of the Analysis log
entry into Investigation Log.

Thanks again for your offer to assist our newly formed Office of Professional Standards. Sgt Schulz is

John
It was good to see you again this morning at the Port of Seattle training. As we discussed, WSP is
happy to assist your internal affairs unit with anything and we are available to have your investigator
cross train with us for either one week or two. We recommend two weeks because generally the first
week goes by quickly and is so learning intensive that it is difficult to digest. It is easier to put it all
together the second week.
Our coordinator for cross training is Detective/Sergeant Chuck LeBlanc. He can be reached at (360)
704-2336. We are currently scheduled through the rest of the year, but can make some time available
in January. If you are interested, please have your investigator contact Det/Sgt LeBlanc directly to
arrange the dates.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you. See you at the next home game.

Captain,
The attached is a new version of the CID overview for the legislative tour on June 30. GMR thought last
year’s presentation was way too data-heavy so I rewrote it. My recommendation would be to have the
data available and discuss it if and when necessary. Like everyone else, they want to hear a story and
don’t just want to look at numbers (my two cents).
A hard copy is on your desk for your review and I will have tomorrow and Thursday to make any
changes you want.
Thanks,
AC Miller,
Chief Batiste asked about this last week and we just received word this morning that the fatality
involving the log truck, (Brad Pederson – Logging truck – Fatality) will not be counted on the recap. It
has been removed. The change will be reflected in tomorrow’s recap.

The answer to your question is, “it depends.” If the road was not gated or gate was open, no signs
posted that stated it was private, and the public could get in there, it could be counted. If signs posted
clearly stated it was private, “do not enter,” “closed for winter,” and the person clearly went around the
sign then it would not be counted.
Based on the information provided in the report, and the fact it is a working logging truck involved on
this road (he was permitted to be in there as a place of work vs. just driving around a barrier, my bet is
that FARS will not take this, but will likely confirm with NHTSA. Usually Forest Service Roads are
counted in FARS, however, so many logging trucks do make it into the data set.
WSDOT will not include this in their data set, so that also would give FARS cause to lean towards not
counting it if truly “private”. Here is the difference in definitions:
WSDOT does not include cases where crash occurred more than 20 feet from trafficway.

For anyone that was involved in the operation. Please pass this on to them.
Thanks and appreciation from me to everyone who had a part in planning and carrying out this felony
mission.
________________________________
This morning I had the opportunity to observe our CID Detectives, IAD Detectives, FOB Troopers, HSD
Bomb Squad, and partners from other agencies participate in a high risk warrant service for a CID
search warrant related to a Vehicular Assault in Mason County.
The mission was thoroughly planned and briefed including photos and videos. This high risk warrant
was served with absolute professionalism and the cooperation between different bureaus, Divisions, and
other agencies (including the fire department) was superb. The discipline and training of our SWAT
Team was evident to me in the quite professionalism exhibited by the team members. After the initial
entry, I saw a fully geared up operator find a blanket for one of the persons involved that was cold. I
also saw a operator take a blow to the leg from a humongous dog that was apparently so relaxed that
he was playing with a rope chew toy. I was struck by the team’s ability to switch modes after having
just made such a dangerous entry.
CID did an outstanding job gathering the information, providing perimeter security, and in making the
decision to request SWAT. SWAT did an outstanding job planning, briefing, and securing the residence.
FOB did an outstanding job providing perimeter coverage and support. The Bomb squad pre-planned
and responded immediately to make a device safe.
Please pass along my congratulations for a job well done to all of your people. I have never been
prouder to be a Trooper.

Jerry,
This guidance stems from our road Troopers and some Detective’s calling the AG directly. They are
asking questions that maybe the agency has already officially addressed or would not need to ask
ordinarily. It is becoming burdensome to the AG and costly to the agency.
This is not related to your official work and your guys are not suspected of abusing it. Thanks for
asking.
Mike
Captain do you know the answer to this questions? If not, I’ll wait until Lt. Huntley returns to answer.
Hi Keith,
Am I safe to assume we are not being billed on cases we are conducting for the AAG’s? With these

I spoke with Captain DeWitt today. She is going to meet with Melanie Tuesday to discuss her wishes. I
will know more after that.
Captain,
Please see Hickman’s e-mail below. It appears Melanie will have to leave the WSP around the end of
July if we can’t get her reallocated to Moses Lake from Wenatchee. Anything we can do to expedite the
approval for reallocation would be appreciated. Thank you sir!

LT,
Prior to you arriving in CID our secretary. Melanie LaBonte, submitted an IOC to reallocate her position
to Moses Lake and part time. This was submitted on May 25th. Just wondering if we have had any
response on the request. I have a copy of what Lt Myer submitted.
Melanie will be leaving the department around the end of July if we can’t get it moved. Her husband
has been transferred to Moses Lake.
Give me a call if you have any questions or if you need some insight into this

Thanks for letting me know about the process. I will make sure we follow the proper steps.
I have two of my Lieutenants scheduled for training in July regarding grants and we will definitely be
looking at getting some money through that process. I appreciate the assistance I have gotten from
you and Melissa Stricklett regarding our budget and how it all works. Thanks for the help and please
don’t hesitate to let me know your thoughts, I will gladly accept the input.

Mike:
I thought your presentation to legislative staff this am was outstanding. And, I also applaud/encourage
your emphasis on seeking out new grant opportunities.
One caution I want to point out though, please be aware all grant applications MUST be routed through
BFS and approved by the Chief BEFORE they are submitted to the granting agency (regulation
10.04.060). It’s a common misunderstanding by programs that the Chief does not need to
review/approve the grant until the award document is received. However, the approval must be gained
BEFORE the application is made to the granting agency.
You may already be aware of that, but I just want to make sure.

Works for me. Please ensure it gets out to all those that are eligible. Also, please check Vik Mauro’s
qualifications so we are sure she is eligible for the intradistrict transfer.
Captain,
As you know, there have been some recent changes in CID with regard to personnel. Recently there
have been two promotions in the detective ranks: Detective Brian George promoted to sergeant in D7-
Silverlake and Detective James Mjor is soon to be promoted to sergeant in D7-Burlington. Please join
me in congratulating these two outstanding detectives as they take this important next step in their
careers. Well done Brian and James…we wish you both continued success!
With these promotions comes the task of filling their vacancies. Please poll your detectives to
determine if any are interested and qualified to fill the following position:
· District 8 CIU
The District 1 CIU position will be advertised once vacant. Those interested should submit their request
via e-mail to me by the close of business on Wednesday, July 7, 2010. Only those e-mail’s received by
this time will be considered to potentially fill these vacancies. I hope you all enjoy a safe 4th of July
holiday with your friends and families! Thank you!

Below is a summary of what has been spent in the CID PI 356 account. We have not yet equipped the
two vehicles. My understanding is that they want a bed cover on the Colorado as well as emergency
lights in both of them. Once the $805.77 is spent the rest of the equipping costs will need to be funded
out of CID’s operating budget.

AC Miller,
We are going to synchronize our weekly reports to you and the Executive Staff to coincide with the OPS
briefing you all receive. Our reports will come to you on the Friday before OPS does their Monday
briefing so that you have the most updated information, from both of us, at the same time.
Also, the format we have selected is to give you the CITE summary, just like the one OPS has. You will
recognize it and it meets the criteria you requested in our last meeting.
Thanks Chief,
Our next briefing will be Monday, July 19. So, if we could have a briefing on Friday, July 16 that would
be ideal. Thank you again for the accommodation on our behalf.

Philly's idea sounds like something we can also use for going after our hit&run drivers amongs other
criminal activities we investigate.
I read through this and I think it is pretty consistent with what we have in place with other regional
groups. I just want to ensure that we have a member on the team at all times and that we have a
voice in decisions regarding resources, personnel and who has jurisdiction and investigative authority.
We can discuss this ahead of any meeting we have with the group so we are sure we are on the same
page.

Mike – I have been holding onto the Mason/Grays Harbor/Pacific/Thurston/Lewis plan until you got on
board (attached). I strongly feel that if there is a multi-agency agreement in place such as this – we
need to be at the table in some way. I would like to move forward with discussions with them, however
as Julie stated below it does mean a lot of work from CID. The next logical step would be to set up a
meeting with the Sheriff’s, then to bring on the municipalities within each county. Let me know and I
will begin the process to set up the meetings. Thanks. Steve
I just wanted to let you know that I am working with Lt. Clint Casebolt to facilitate getting CID on board
with a multi-agency response team in Jefferson and Clallam Counties. We had approached them once
before following the FS Ranger shooting and they are very interested. Also, we would like to pursue
developing a getting on board with Mason, Grays Harbor, Pacific, Thurston, Lewis Counties—which
already have an agreement in place. I will work with Kitsap County agencies to determine if they would
consider a response protocol too. In talking with Captain Sutton, he feels it may come down to us
initiating a draft agreement and playing a more significant role on the front end than we normally do--
the driving force, if you will. I know it means a lot of work from CID, but I and the district will be able
to assist a lot. I think we could be successful. What are your thoughts? Perhaps we can sit down and
develop a game plan; start formulating our ideal plan to present to them?
Thanks!

· Our thanks for their support of the training division and their many classes. Our people do a lot
of teaching and we can be proud of that.
· The importance of arriving on time to all training, in the appropriate training attire and with the
right gear so that we are an example of doing it right, not wrong. When you are in a high profile
division like we are, you have to be aware of what others see and hear about you. Our reputation is
good, let’s keep it that way.
Thank you,
The purpose of this email is to say thank you and provide insight about events.
Thank you for your support by providing instructors for Firearms, EVOC, and Control Tactics and
Weapons. The Academy would not be able to provide the level of training to the large groups without
your staff. We are seeing a trend on a fairly regular basis where troopers call on the day of in-service
which begins at 9:00 a.m. asking what time they are to be here. Sometimes they are a distance away
and roll in late but most of the time they are making it. If there is anything we can do to ensure people
know the dates and times of training as provided in eTrain, please let me know. Some of the CTW
instructors have failed to show up when scheduled, so we are going to start calling ahead of time to
confirm their participation and availability. If we have any particular concerns we will let that
commander know.

Mike,
There is a planned charity ride for the 6 fallen officers on July 25th. 0930 stage time Boeing Field, with
check points at SPD, Lakewood and Piece County , ending up at the Forzos Coffee House (Crime
Scene). $50.00 dollar entry goes to the families. T-Shirt and lunch. Putting some of the fellers
together for the day. I hope you can fit it in. Need my riding partner.

JB,
Some feedback from a senior member of the agency. Can’t say I disagree and I bet you will get more
feedback.
I will only take a moment of your time with this but I find it a bit sad when I look at the Target Zero
pamphlet. I cannot help but notice the trooper is contacting the violator with sunglasses on, no hat,
and it has the appearance the violator is giving himself the PBT. This is nothing against this trooper
who is only playing a role, but I still feel after all these years we should be portraying the trooper
outside of the car with his/her hat on, giving the PBT at the roadside. This is the true environment our
folks are faced with all the time.
Call me a stubborn traditionalist, but I know I what exemplifies the appearance of a state trooper to me.
Kind of hard for us that are traditionalists to enforce the hats, sunglasses rules, etc., when they are
going to point to this and say we endorsed it. Yikes.
GMR didn't make it. Ill see what I can find out. And I agree by the way.

FYI regarding these meeting, I will be on leave from July 16 thru Aug 9.
I read through this and I think it is pretty consistent with what we have in place with other regional
groups. I just want to ensure that we have a member on the team at all times and that we have a
voice in decisions regarding resources, personnel and who has jurisdiction and investigative authority.
We can discuss this ahead of any meeting we have with the group so we are sure we are on the same
page.

Mike – I have been holding onto the Mason/Grays Harbor/Pacific/Thurston/Lewis plan until you got on
board (attached). I strongly feel that if there is a multi-agency agreement in place such as this – we
need to be at the table in some way. I would like to move forward with discussions with them, however
as Julie stated below it does mean a lot of work from CID. The next logical step would be to set up a
meeting with the Sheriff’s, then to bring on the municipalities within each county. Let me know and I
will begin the process to set up the meetings. Thanks. Steve
Hi Chuck,
I just wanted to let you know that I am working with Lt. Clint Casebolt to facilitate getting CID on board
with a multi-agency response team in Jefferson and Clallam Counties. We had approached them once
before following the FS Ranger shooting and they are very interested. Also, we would like to pursue
developing a getting on board with Mason, Grays Harbor, Pacific, Thurston, Lewis Counties—which
already have an agreement in place. I will work with Kitsap County agencies to determine if they would
consider a response protocol too. In talking with Captain Sutton, he feels it may come down to us
initiating a draft agreement and playing a more significant role on the front end than we normally do--
the driving force, if you will. I know it means a lot of work from CID, but I and the district will be able
to assist a lot. I think we could be successful. What are your thoughts? Perhaps we can sit down and
develop a game plan; start formulating our ideal plan to present to them?
Thanks!

I attended the Homeland Security Coordination Group (HSCG) meeting this morning and got CID on the
board for $50,000 in training, travel and exercises. I think we have a pretty good chance of getting our
piece through since it’s such a relatively small amount. I will continue monitor and advise.

The Shelton VIN inspections are Wednesday from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m., and they average 32 per month.
Enough that we don’t want to cancel them, but not so many that the idea we spoke about this morning
wouldn’t work.
As you guys work on this, if you have questions or would like assistance, Melissa Stricklett says to call
her. She also said detail is good as that will encourage the legislature and OFM to keep these items in

Captain Ginnard and his staff, including Sgt Brian George, are on scene for the crash on Hwy 2. MAIT
has Bob Schroeder there and they will take the crash. Sgt George, having recently been with CID in
Bremerton can handle the on scene along with MAIT and the two tech’s that are there.
Sgt Marken will leave the scene in Snohomish County and go assist Detective Cardinal with the border
shooting. The suspect is in custody and we still don’t know how extensive the scene is or many details,
but we have Marken, Cardinal and Rhue on the way to handle it. I have also reached out to a friend
from Bellingham PD who is a tech and knows all our CID guys. He is going to assist Marken and the
guys with the scene.
Captain Ginnard told me that Border Patrol reached out to Sgt Mark Dennis in Bellingham and asked
that WSP do the investigation. There is no right of refusal technically since this happened on Federal
property so the BP generally asks us to handle it. Marken is going to check in with Blaine’s Chief and
Sheriff Alfo just to be sure, but they have deferred to us in the past and will likely do so this time as
well.

E2SHB 2617 requires that our agency submit a report to OFM no later than July 15, 2010 regarding any
formal boards, commissions, external task forces, user groups, etc, that we participate in. YOUR INPUT
TO THIS REPORT IS REQUIRED. An excerpt from the OFM direction regarding the report is provided
below under “E2SHB 2617 report”. For any boards, commissions, external work groups, task forces
which we participate in that must be reported, an OFM worksheet must be filled out electronically and
forwarded to your Bureau Director. The worksheet is an extensive, five page worksheet. Be prepared
and start early! But the good news, is we only need to fill them out for boards and commissions where
we are the chairman (or in charge) and for external work groups/task forces that were formed on our
initiative (created by WSP).
Note the highlighted section in the OFM guidance below for what requires a worksheet be filled out.
Here is some amplifying guidance:
Category (1): Boards, commissions, councils, task forces, etc, established by rule, legislation, directive,
etc. Prepare a worksheet ONLY if WSP is the chair or in charge of these entities. For all others, we
assume the agency which is the chair will submit the form.
Category (2) Any group comprised of two or more state agencies that was established by formal written
agreement and meets more than two times per year. NOTE THE REQUIEMENTS: Other state agencies
only, written agreement, and meets more than two times per year.
Category (3): Any group created by a state agency that includes external stakeholders, that meets more
than two times per year or has continued longer than 12 months. The operative phrase in this is
“created by a state agency”. If WSP did not create the work group/task force, etc, then DO NOT
REPORT IT. If we merely participate, we don’t need to report.
2. Bureau Directors review and forward to Budget and Fiscal Services no later than July 13, 2010.
3. BFS will review final list with the Chief and submit no later than July 15, 2010
This process is time critical and important that we do it correctly. Please re-read this e-mail, then call
me if you have any questions. Remember: Reports are required from ALL divisions and districts.
v/resp, Bob
OFM Guidance:
Section 147 of E2SHB 2617 requires each agency, board, commission, council, committee, or other
similar group (collectively referred to as “groups’) to provide information for each group regardless of
fund source; whether temporary or permanent; method of establishment (statutory, executive order,
budget proviso, agency created, or other nonstatutory means); whether the group is assigned a class or
is unclassified; or whether member compensation or expenses are paid.
The E2SHB 2617 report is more comprehensive than OFM’s biennial report on boards and commissions.
Agencies need to complete forms for (1) any board, commission, council, committee, subcabinet, work
group, task force, teams or other groups created by statute, rule, budget proviso, legislation, Governor’s
executive order, Governor’s directive, or Supreme Court order; (2) any group comprised of two or more
state agencies created by a written formal agreement that meets two or more times a year; and (3) any
group created by a state agency that includes external stakeholders, functions primarily in a policy,
advisory, coordinating, or planning capacity; meets two or more times a year; and will or has continued
for longer than 12 months. For groups that include multiple agencies, the group must decide which
agency will provide the information.
To gather the information, we have produced a reporting template which can be found at
http://www.ofm.wa.gov/boards/2617Form.pdf. Each agency and group must submit this report to OFM
by July 15, 2010. Instructions on how to complete the report can be found at

Division/District Commanders:
E2SHB 2617 requires that our agency submit a report to OFM no later than July 15, 2010 regarding any
formal boards, commissions, external task forces, user groups, etc, that we participate in. YOUR INPUT
TO THIS REPORT IS REQUIRED. An excerpt from the OFM direction regarding the report is provided
below under “E2SHB 2617 report”. For any boards, commissions, external work groups, task forces
which we participate in that must be reported, an OFM worksheet must be filled out electronically and
forwarded to your Bureau Director. The worksheet is an extensive, five page worksheet. Be prepared
and start early! But the good news, is we only need to fill them out for boards and commissions where
we are the chairman (or in charge) and for external work groups/task forces that were formed on our
initiative (created by WSP).
Note the highlighted section in the OFM guidance below for what requires a worksheet be filled out.
Here is some amplifying guidance:
Category (1): Boards, commissions, councils, task forces, etc, established by rule, legislation, directive,
etc. Prepare a worksheet ONLY if WSP is the chair or in charge of these entities. For all others, we
assume the agency which is the chair will submit the form.
Category (2) Any group comprised of two or more state agencies that was established by formal written
agreement and meets more than two times per year. NOTE THE REQUIEMENTS: Other state agencies
only, written agreement, and meets more than two times per year.
Category (3): Any group created by a state agency that includes external stakeholders, that meets more
than two times per year or has continued longer than 12 months. The operative phrase in this is
“created by a state agency”. If WSP did not create the work group/task force, etc, then DO NOT
REPORT IT. If we merely participate, we don’t need to report.
2. Bureau Directors review and forward to Budget and Fiscal Services no later than July 13, 2010.
3. BFS will review final list with the Chief and submit no later than July 15, 2010
This process is time critical and important that we do it correctly. Please re-read this e-mail, then call
me if you have any questions. Remember: Reports are required from ALL divisions and districts.

OFM Guidance:
Section 147 of E2SHB 2617 requires each agency, board, commission, council, committee, or other
similar group (collectively referred to as “groups’) to provide information for each group regardless of
fund source; whether temporary or permanent; method of establishment (statutory, executive order,
budget proviso, agency created, or other nonstatutory means); whether the group is assigned a class or
is unclassified; or whether member compensation or expenses are paid.
The E2SHB 2617 report is more comprehensive than OFM’s biennial report on boards and commissions.
Agencies need to complete forms for (1) any board, commission, council, committee, subcabinet, work
group, task force, teams or other groups created by statute, rule, budget proviso, legislation, Governor’s
executive order, Governor’s directive, or Supreme Court order; (2) any group comprised of two or more
state agencies created by a written formal agreement that meets two or more times a year; and (3) any
group created by a state agency that includes external stakeholders, functions primarily in a policy,
advisory, coordinating, or planning capacity; meets two or more times a year; and will or has continued
for longer than 12 months. For groups that include multiple agencies, the group must decide which
agency will provide the information.
To gather the information, we have produced a reporting template which can be found at
http://www.ofm.wa.gov/boards/2617Form.pdf. Each agency and group must submit this report to OFM
by July 15, 2010. Instructions on how to complete the report can be found at

on input/concerns.
Greg
(360) 704-2979
The attachments are the weekly reports. As we discussed, the confidential report will now be the CITE
report since is gives the case number, investigator name, status and the latest updates as you
requested. I have requested that the Lieutenants ensure that their people update these with status
weekly. The other attachment is the weekly report on non-confidential information. The CITE version
here is cut and pasted this time, but next time it will be much clearer and easier to read.
We are sending them out this week since we didn’t do one last week. Next week we will send one out
too so that we are in sync with the OPS briefing that you guys get. From next week on, these will be
sent out every other week. If cases change and that necessitates a more frequent update, I will of
course do that.
If you approve the format, I will forward it to the distribution group with this explanation.
Thanks Chief,

To help you with the action request for the 2009-2011 budget that you guys are working on.
The attached guidance might be helpful to those of you working on the “8 Questions” for an activity
area.
It was published by the Governor’s Office several weeks ago and provides a bit more detail about what
they are looking for in each question.
Resp, Bob
If you are on the “To” line of this e-mail, action is required of you before July 21, 2010 for the 2009-11
Budget Submission.
The Governor’s press announcements last week for the 2009-11 budget talked about a “zero based”
approach toward looking at each agency’s essential activities. That approach calls for asking 8
questions about each activity. We must answer those 8 questions for each of our agency’s essential
activities in a narrative format and submit it to OFM no later than August 2, 2010. The first attachment
is the directive from OFM requiring this submission.
This e-mail has been sent to you because one or more of the agency’s essential activities come under
your program. The second attachment contains 18 pages, one for each activity. The intent is for you to
simply begin typing justification on the activity(ies) which apply to you, then return the form to BFS.
Please delete the pages which do not apply to your division/program. Each page has the Activity Title
and Program Assigned to complete it at the top. Specifically the assignments are as follows:
Please treat this exercise very seriously. Be brief and concise, but convincing in your answers. How
your program fares in the 2009-11 budget process may very well depend upon how well you answer
these questions. Your assigned Budget Analyst will call to confirm that you received this message

We have done this on a few occasions when I was in IA to determine if the story is valid or contrived to
get the parents off the trail.
The story already changed once so it seems they are having trouble remembering the truth.

Please call Travis to coordinate on the case from over the weekend.
We should brief the local PD and let them know what we have. They will likely decline to take it so get
an email from them saying they don't want it and add that to the case log.
We also need Moats report so OPS can do the IIR and decide if they are going to do a prelim or
investigate it more thoroughly.

CID Detective Moate conducted interviews on the complainant and witness this past Saturday.
According to my discussion with Captain Dahl, D2 should move forward with an IIR to OPS and the
case should be referred to the appropriate jurisdiction for a criminal investigation. Let me know if you
agree and if there is anything I can do to assist. Thank you!

Detective Moate will be interviewing the driver and passenger at 4 pm at D2 office. We would like Sgt
Crandall to sit in on the interview since he took the initial statement. I believe he is scheduled to come
on shift at 3 or 4.
Kristene
I have the contact information. The parties were released at five this morning so I am going to wait
until after nine to call to set appt for an interview.
Kristene, Chuck,
Find out what happened in the past and let's see what it has to offer. Sounds like a good idea though.
________________________________
Captain,
I fully support assigning CID detectives to this committee. It appears we have take part in this in the
past, but I am not sure who is assigned. What are your thoughts?
Dennis or Keith – Do either of you know who was assigned to this in the past as indicated by Lt.
Rethwill?

Rick/Randy – Morning … Hope you had a relaxing weekend. Hey, not sure if IAD has participated in
this informal Detective Safety Committee before (see below)??? Look like Det. McMullen is trying to get
some traction behind it again, which I think is a good idea ... I figure their ideas could be routed to our
(IAD/CID) commands thru Corporal Prouty. Any concerns on your part and who do you think would be
some good representatives to have participate??? Thanks for considering.
Dennis/Chuck/Keith – Morning … Just checking to verify that CID will be participating in this??? Let me
know … Thanks/Wes
Approved - I agree, please poll your peers to see what two detectives would be an asset to this
committee. I am assuming CID is still on board?

Hey, it has been brought to my attention we need to resurrect the Detective Safety Committee.
For those of you that where not in the last committee that was formed. The purpose of this committee
is to get a group of qualified, respected Detectives together (IAD & CID), along with training division
representatives and identify needed training and equipment for detectives.
I would like to see our attitude be detectives train detectives. If we move in this direction we will be
able to provide the most effective training out there. You all know that when we go to training put on
by those who have never been a detective the training may be good, but it usually falls short of what
we (detectives) need.
Now with that said we as a group will be responsible to put together ideas and present them to the
command staff for consideration in a professional, logical package. We will also need to tap into our
own resources and get some people, to step up and take training roles.
The time commitment from your side will involve you talking with other detectives proactively to identify
needed training and equipment throughout our ranks. It will involve each of us getting outside our own
units and talking with other units. We should identify training and equipment needed in all our units.
Then we can meet on a quarterly basis to get our heads together and identify issues.
Our goal is to keep our detectives safe and keep our command staff up to date on the trends we (the
detectives) are seeing on the streets. By doing this we will allow the command staff time to react with
appropriate funds for training and needed equipment.
I feel if we (the detectives) can work in unison with the command staff we can make this a very
effective program and provide our people with solid, effective training to keep them safe.
Anyway please let me know if you are in or out. I feel the above named individuals have the experience
needed to make this a solid effective program.
To the Sergeants I included in the CC portion, please pass this email on to the other Sergeants and
Lieutenants in your respective divisions. With all of us working in unison together we will identify
training and equipment needed to keep our people safe. We cannot do something like this without the
support of the command staff. I would ask that you support and help promote this program. If you
have any questions or concerns please feel free to call me.
The only way we can step up to the next level is to come together!!!!

I did talk with Captain Dahl this morning about filling your vacancy. He indicated he had already talked
to you and that we would continue with the vacancy until such time as you deem it is necessary to fill.
So please let me know how when you feel it is time. I will keep an ear open here in Oly town and if I
get any indication that we may get stuck with a permanent vacancy I will let you know immediately.
We may need to move pretty swiftly if/when that comes around.

I don't support using the formal process to gauge interest internally, but informally if we just want to
know who is interested, that is fine.
Let's make sure we don't misrepresent it and give the impression that filling it is imminent. We don't
want anyone upset.
________________________________
So that we know there is a current detective who is interested in filling that position when it is time to
fill it. That way we will be ready to simply fill the position when we receive the approval to fill it. As
opposed to waiting until we can fill it to advertise internally. This would only be an internal
advertisement not the external. With that said, I can also see the wisdom in not advertising at all until
we are ready to move on it. Your call boss. Thanks.

Brusseau has walked through the range with CCSO and all they want is some paperwork related to the
training.
We have photos, IOC's coming from the other Troopers and have the duty belt and target in evidence
for safekeeping.
The Trooper suffered a self inflicted flesh wound to the leg and will likely have surgery to remove the
bullet.
No appearance of anything criminal right now so CID will do our part and then pass it on to D-5
Command for the administrative portion.
Please let us know if there is anything else for now. I will update you as this comes in.

Just wanted to convey my condolences on the loss of your sister, I hope your family is hanging in
there. I lost my Dad about a year and a half ago and it was tough, but it does get better with time. I
sincerely hope that your family will find solace in the memories that you built over her life and will be

Dennis, please plan to be acting from this Thursday, July 15th through Sunday July 25th.
I will be in Eastern Washington for the first 10 days and might check in a couple times, but pretty much
unavailable. The rest of the time I will be in town and available from home.
I will leave my computer on and emails open so you can check them for things that have time sensitive
responses. Of course if you have issues come up, advise AC Miller. You can't give him too much with
regard to what's going on in the field that he may get questions about. If it's the day to day stuff,
make your decision using the best information and check with each other, then go with it.
Please keep a log for me to review when I return. I know you have each been acting at some level in
the past and this is really no different. I mean unless you factor in that it's a Captain's position and if
you mess it up, it could ruin the rest of your career. Don't let the pressure get you though, I believe in
you guys.

We have completed our CID After Action and the one with D-8 so we are ready to move forward with

As indicated in the attached letter from OFM this process is for a “fundamental re-examination” of
agency activities and is designed to “challenge every program in state government.” Please ensure that
each response is treated seriously as requested by Bob Maki.
I would like the opportunity to familiarize myself with your responses about each program and offer
input. Please forward your responses to me through Geri Greene no later than July 28 for my review
prior to sending them to Budget and Fiscal.
Thank you,
Greg
Assistant Chief Gregory E. Miller
(360) 704-2979
If you are on the “To” line of this e-mail, action is required of you before July 21, 2010 for the 2009-11
Budget Submission.
The Governor’s press announcements last week for the 2009-11 budget talked about a “zero based”
approach toward looking at each agency’s essential activities. That approach calls for asking 8
questions about each activity. We must answer those 8 questions for each of our agency’s essential
activities in a narrative format and submit it to OFM no later than August 2, 2010. The first attachment
is the directive from OFM requiring this submission.
This e-mail has been sent to you because one or more of the agency’s essential activities come under
your program. The second attachment contains 18 pages, one for each activity. The intent is for you to
simply begin typing justification on the activity(ies) which apply to you, then return the form to BFS.
Please delete the pages which do not apply to your division/program. Each page has the Activity Title
and Program Assigned to complete it at the top. Specifically the assignments are as follows:
Please treat this exercise very seriously. Be brief and concise, but convincing in your answers. How
your program fares in the 2009-11 budget process may very well depend upon how well you answer
these questions. Your assigned Budget Analyst will call to confirm that you received this message
Resp,
Bob

AC Miller,
I have a doctor’s appointment in the morning but will be in by noon. I will be on my BB if anything
comes up.
Chuck,
We are assigned the Commissioner of Public Lands, Peter Goldmark. I am the primary, you are the
secondary.
I have attached the packet I made up so we get to know the guy and have a photo just in case we
need it. I did this with my last guy too. We need to contact him and his assistant so we can finish up
the areas on the sheet that are blank and also let them know who we are and what we do for them in
the event of an emergency.
Can you fill in your portion of the worksheet and then schedule a meeting with them for some time
after August 8th? Vicky can look at my calendar and synchronize it with yours. Thanks.

It is a potential crime that occurred in their jurisdiction and they have a right of first refusal.
We can give them what we have and they can review it to determine if it warrants more investigation.

I just got off the phone with Sgt. O'Shannon who talked with Kirkland Police Chief Eric Olsen. Kristene
explained what the allegations were as well as what our detectives have learned so far. Chief Olsen
indicated his department would be willing to look at the case but requested an official request through
Chief Batiste per protocols. Once the official request is made, we can send them all the documentation
generated to date. According to Kristene, Kirkland PD did secure video of the DUI processing from the
day of the arrest. I think it would be a good idea for Kirkland to conduct a criminal review of what we
have and then either indicate there was no criminal conduct or forward to the prosecutor. What do you
think?

I instructed O'Shannon to ensure Moate completes her report today so that it can accompany the
documentation from D2 to OPS.
Kristene, please let me know when Moate's report has been provided to OPS. Also, I would like you to
contact Kirkland PD to brief them on what we have so far and determine if they want to look further
into the case by conducting a criminal investigation of their own (probably won't be necessary) or
receiving a decline in writing (e-mail) and entering that into the case documents and case log. If you
have any questions please call me. Thank you in advance.

We should brief the local PD and let them know what we have. They will likely decline to take it so get
an email from them saying they don't want it and add that to the case log.
We also need Moats report so OPS can do the IIR and decide if they are going to do a prelim or
investigate it more thoroughly.

CID Detective Moate conducted interviews on the complainant and witness this past Saturday.
According to my discussion with Captain Dahl, D2 should move forward with an IIR to OPS and the
case should be referred to the appropriate jurisdiction for a criminal investigation. Let me know if you

Please call KPD yourself and get them up to speed on what has transpired. We shouldn't have
O'Shannon doing it, it should be command staff so you can explain it to them.
Find out what they want to do and then we can decide what we need to do as far as admin process.
Captain,
I am confused, sir.
Based on our phone conversation on Monday morning, my understanding was that Chuck was going to
call KPD (lieutenant or above) and get a verbal decline/refusal from them, which would then be
memorialized in a following email. Given that information, I signed the IIR as a Prelim yesterday and
sent it back to the District for handling. IF KPD hasn't declined/refused to investigate as of yet then
should we formally put this thing on criminal hold and provide the employee with the criminal
notification paperwork?

I just spoke with Kirkland PD Captain Ursino. Based on what I relayed to him and the fact that they
already viewed the video of the processing and saw no concerns, he is inclined not to do anything
further with this investigation. Chief Olsen was in a meeting and Captain Ursino wanted to run it by his
chief first before he gave us a formal response. I asked for a formal response via e-mail and he had no
problem with it. He will be calling me back after he speaks to his chief. Thanks.

Kristene, Chuck,
Captain,
I just received a call back from Captain Ursino. He said he discussed this with Chief Olsen, who at
minimum wanted to review what we have so far. Ursino indicated it was sufficient for me to e-mail a
synopsis of what we have so far to the Chief, along with all applicable documentation for their criminal
investigation unit to review. I will have O'Shannon move forward with providing them the
documentation. I will e-mail Chief Olsen with a cc to you and Matheson. Thanks.

I just spoke with Kirkland PD Captain Ursino. Based on what I relayed to him and the fact that they
already viewed the video of the processing and saw no concerns, he is inclined not to do anything
further with this investigation. Chief Olsen was in a meeting and Captain Ursino wanted to run it by his
chief first before he gave us a formal response. I asked for a formal response via e-mail and he had no
problem with it. He will be calling me back after he speaks to his chief. Thanks.

Please call KPD yourself and get them up to speed on what has transpired. We shouldn't have
O'Shannon doing it, it should be command staff so you can explain it to them.
Find out what they want to do and then we can decide what we need to do as far as admin process.
Captain,
I am confused, sir.
Based on our phone conversation on Monday morning, my understanding was that Chuck was going to
call KPD (lieutenant or above) and get a verbal decline/refusal from them, which would then be
memorialized in a following email. Given that information, I signed the IIR as a Prelim yesterday and
sent it back to the District for handling. IF KPD hasn't declined/refused to investigate as of yet then
should we formally put this thing on criminal hold and provide the employee with the criminal
notification paperwork?

It is a potential crime that occurred in their jurisdiction and they have a right of first refusal.
We can give them what we have and they can review it to determine if it warrants more investigation.

I just got off the phone with Sgt. O'Shannon who talked with Kirkland Police Chief Eric Olsen. Kristene
explained what the allegations were as well as what our detectives have learned so far. Chief Olsen
indicated his department would be willing to look at the case but requested an official request through
Chief Batiste per protocols. Once the official request is made, we can send them all the documentation
generated to date. According to Kristene, Kirkland PD did secure video of the DUI processing from the
day of the arrest. I think it would be a good idea for Kirkland to conduct a criminal review of what we
have and then either indicate there was no criminal conduct or forward to the prosecutor. What do you
think?

Please call Travis to coordinate on the case from over the weekend.
We should brief the local PD and let them know what we have. They will likely decline to take it so get
an email from them saying they don't want it and add that to the case log.
We also need Moats report so OPS can do the IIR and decide if they are going to do a prelim or
investigate it more thoroughly.

Hello Commanders,
As I recently discussed with you, I have developed a template for your SAF presentations. I would like
to see these used for your October 6/7 SAF. The changes should actually make your SAFs easier to
prepare as I am not asking for any new data and am overall trying to simplify the process while making
presentations consistent throughout the Bureau. What you report in SAF should be tied directly to
agency goals, division objectives to meet agency goals, and progress in accomplishing strategies by
meeting specific targets. Data shown should be focused on progress in meeting targets. My overall goal
is for you to be able to spend 5 minutes or so going over data so that you can spend the remaining
time on current areas of interest, challenges, and successes.
After the October SAF we will evaluate how these slides worked and make changes accordingly. The
slides are intentionally sparse for this first go-round because I am focusing on what we are reporting as
opposed to the method of display.
Here are some instructions for clarification:
· The cover page can remain as you currently have it (cover page on attachment is illustrative
only).
· Complete the District Overview sheet which includes the evaluation sheet.
1. Put the name of the Region/Section in the appropriate boxes and list your supervisors and the
number of FTE’s assigned to them.
· Delete all graphs/maps/graphics on your “Goal/Target” sheets and use only data to show
progress listed toward targets.
· Put data in the standardized data format that is included in the attached example to show
progress
· Copy the “Goal/Target” sheets as necessary to report on progress toward achieving strategies by
tracking progress toward achieving targets
· Your talking notes should include your analysis of progress toward targets and any related
successes or issues.
· Include any photographs, links, etc. that you wish to use on the Accomplishment page(s) – add
pages as needed.
Please let me know if you have questions about what I am looking for, suggestions for improvement, or
concerns.

On Sunday July 17, 2010 the Department of Licensing (DOL) will be issuing a new drivers license to
motorists in Washington State. The attached PowerPoint will show our troopers what they need to
know regarding the new license.
A new design to the Washington driver license, identification card, instruction permit, and CDL will be
included in the system update. Appearance of new documents is very similar to the Enhanced Driver
License (EDL) and Enhanced Identification Cards (EID). Background and color scheme are the same as
the current license. The photograph of the customer has been moved to the left side of the card and a
ghost image of the customer’s photo is located on the right. New documents will have the License
Number on the first line under the headings – Washington Driver License/Identification Card/Instruction
Permit and expiration date will be below the ghost image on the new documents. New documents will
have last name on a separate line above the first name and most data items have a number in front of
them, which conform to federal standards. *Refer to the attached PowerPoint regarding the legend for

her husband returned from Iraq and received a job in the Moses Lake area. Melanie has submitted a
request to reduce the hours she works from 40 to 30 hours per week and to work out of the Moses
Lake office. Captain Dahl and Captain DeWitt are both in agreement of continuing to split the funding
for her position along with allowing her to perform her duties from the Moses Lake office.
HRD is recommending that we keep the FTE as a fulltime position and change the position from a salary

time FTE but change the position to hourly in order to meet the employee’s request for reduction of
work hours. This will allow us to keep the full time FTE for the agency’s future needs.
· HRD will also need to receive an e-mail that shows the FOB and CID Bureau Commanders
approve of the action and that the Deputy Chief is informed. Please cc Dory Nicpon on this e-mail so

Hello all.
As a result of a recent major error in another state agency “forgetting” to update their WAC’s to reflect
a session change in RCW, I thought it would be timely to discuss our process at the upcoming SAF in
August.
As you all know GMR houses the WAC/Rules Coordinator position (Melissa VanGorkom) and maintains a
list of WAC rules that the agency is responsible for and by policy we are to ensure their accuracy once
every two years (or update with a statute change we know of as they occur). The attached list is a
draft of our SAF slides. Please review them for accuracy to ensure they include the WAC’s you are in
charge of.
With the intention of not blindsiding anyone, I just wanted to advise that this came up during Exec Staff
and GMR will be “reminding” everyone during SAF to ensure we are up-to-date in the WAC arena.
We will have a slide covering all of the current WAC’s that are in the process of being revised and a list,
by division, of the chapters we are responsible for overall.
Hope this helps and please call on us in GMR if we can assist further. Thanks, Jason

Darlonna,
The following e-mail is A/C Hattell’s approval to relocate the OA3 from Wenatchee to Moses Lake.
Acting Captain,
Dennis Bosman
Approved per District 6 command’s desire to have the position revert back to Wenatchee in the event of
La Bonte leaving the position.
Yes. We have talked and I discussed my concerns with the position going to Moses Lake. We agreed
that once Melanie left, the position would return to Wenatchee.

Do you have it worked out with Capt. Dahl on the issue of the position going back to Wenatchee at
some point in the future?
We really have never gotten 50% out of this position. However, since Melanie arrived, and I became
captain, we have utilized her for additional duties. The only duty she will not be able to do is the mail.
She fills in when my secretary is on vacation etc. and we can use her when the Moses Lake secretary is
gone as well. She has also been doing numerous transcriptions for us. So we have been getting our
money’s worth lately. She is an excellent employee and we hate to lose her. I thought about this for a
few weeks weighing things out. I believe it will be worth it in the end. My only request is when she
leaves, the position returns back to Wenatchee.

Darlonna,
Captain Dahl wants me to do some research on how to go about physically moving a full-time FTE (half
paid by FOB and half paid by CID) from the Wenatchee District office to the Moses Lake Detachment
office and reducing that FTE to a 30 hour per week position. Captain DeWitt and Captain Dahl have
talked about this and agree to continue funding the position equally (FOB pays for 15 hours and CID
pays for 15 hours per week). What do I need to do to make this happen? Thank you!

service.
Thanks,
Greg
________________________________
Thanks Jim, I will have Acting Captain Bosman call Patrick to give him specifics related to their concerns
about service.
Greg
________________________________
I have conferred with Marty Knorr regarding the issue. Marty agreed there is reason for some caution
because ITD is seeing a downward trend and the current 748 Sprint users are getting closer and closer
to the 650 required until July 22, 2012 (see attached e-mail and contract). Although coverage issues
can be an issue, it may be a common problem for all carriers (so not necessarily a valid reason to
change). I would say we probably need to treat any requests to change on a case-by-case basis now,
and freeze at around 725.
Feedback from Patrick Horan, Tier 2 Cust Svc, is that Sprint is very responsive and provides outstanding
support (only vendor with dedicated rep) – no problems.
I agree with Marty’s analysis. Responsiveness issues need to be routed to ITD for resolution.
Thanks, Jim
(360) 596-4106
Jim,
FYI – part of the issue with Sprint and CID has been a lack of responsiveness by Sprint to requests for
service. Any other Divisions experienced similar issues?
Thanks,
Greg
Assistant Chief Gregory E. Miller
(360) 704-2979
Jim, can you have it researched to determine how many Sprint accounts we are currently holding and
how long we are committed by the agreement to maintain the minimum number of accounts? Once
we fulfill our agreement we can be more generous allowing conversions to Verizon or others as
economic dictate.
Thanks
Chief – CID contacted ITD as part of their research, were told they had sufficient accounts, and were
given the go-ahead. We discussed not encouraging others not to try to switch too because of the
repeater issue.

Subject: RE: More questions...Verizon upgrade
Caution here. Please check first with ITD. We have a commitment to maintain a certain number of
Sprint accounts in exchange for the $400K Academy Sprint repeater they put up last year to give us
good cell coverage up there. I believe we need to maintain a minimum of 600 accounts. If we drop
below that we are obligated to pay the full cost of the repeater.
FYI Chief, CID found a way to save $600 a month on cell phones while getting enough additional
Blackberries to issue one to each Detective Sergeant.
Thanks,
Greg
(360) 704-2979
Dennis,
I carefully evaluated your request and I appreciate all of the follow-up. Although I would really like to
see all Detectives with BlackBerry service, I cannot authorize a change at this time that would increase
overall costs, even though the costs would be relatively small.
I am however pleased that you found an opportunity to make a change that will provide more
blackberries than you currently have while decreasing the amount of money that CID is currently paying
for cell phones and Blackberries by $600 a month. I agree that our agency will benefit by having all of
your Sergeants equipped with Blackberries.
You are authorized to go ahead with the plan for switching services from Sprint to Verizon with 26
Blackberries for Command, Sergeants, and Auto Theft detectives, and 40 cell phones for the remainder
of the detectives.
Thanks to you, Vicki, and the rest of your staff for the time and effort that you put into this.

What was CID’s total 2009 cell phone/blackberry bill? $43,836.80
What is the projected yearly cost for Verizon with the 56 blackberries, 10 cell phones, and 4
air cards? $45,054.72
In the first six months of 2010, our Sprint/Nextel bill is $22,998.85. If this trend continues, it
will match if not exceed the projected Verizon costs for the additional blackberries and significantly
better coverage.
Thanks,

Got it -
Is the free push to talk promotion good forever or just or the 10 month period? In other words, will we
begin to pay the additional $4.99 a month after 10 months anyway?
Thanks,
Greg
(360) 704-2979
A/C Miller,
The following e-mail contains the answers to the questions you raised with converting our cell phone
carrier to Verizon. We will proceed with the direction you provided, unless you change your decision
after reviewing the additional information.
Thanks,
Olympia, WA 98504-2637
Answers below. Just a side note, the push to talk feature is $4.99 a month, if the cells are eventually
upgraded to Blackberries, it would be an additional charge per month of $149.70, over a year that
would be $1,796.40.
Thanks,
Vicky
Vicki,
Please see the answers below. Don't hesitate to let me know if you have questions.
________________________________
Hi Ron,
I hope your Friday is going well. I have a few more questions for you.
Do we need a contract to start service? No. Under the state of WA contract, there are no contract
terms, so no penalty if lines are disconnected. The only time we have a contract term is the upgrade
term, which is every ten months.
If we only go with 26 BB and 40 cell phones, and we decide to take 30 of the cell phones 3 months
from now and upgrade them to BB’s, is there a charge/penalty to do this? The Blackberries would have
to be charged at retail (about $500+ ea.) if they are upgraded within the 10 month upgrade eligibility
period. You would also lose the free Push to Talk promotion on the Blackberries that are being offered
now. That's why the Blackberries make some sense right now.
The last question, the BB’s have access to the worldwide web? If so, is there a charge or included in
the monthly service fee? Web access is part of the unlimited data package that is part of the service.
Yes, all web access is included.
Vicky

On March 8, 2010, I had asked Theresa Crimi to check why two of our detectives total was high. On
March 8, I had the response that she would look at it and get back to me that afternoon. I followed up
on March 15 since I had no reply. On March 17 I had a response.
On April 7, I had asked for a rate plan analysis , had a response on April 14 I had a response.
On June 15, I requested Det. Tracy Hansen’s cell be cancelled, and in an earlier e-mail that I no longer
have, I had requested Det. Brian George’s phone be cancelled too. On June 21, I had asked for
confirmation of both cell phones being cancelled, on June 23rd, I had e-mailed a different contact at
Nextel to confirm that the two cell phones had been cancelled. I had a response from Theresa later
that afternoon that they were cancelled. I finally received a response from Theresa that day to confirm
the cancellation.
On December 18, 2009, I had requested why another phone number was attached to a detectives
phone number. On December 18, I had a response that she would take a look at it and let me know.
On
January 19, 2010, I had followed up for a response, and received a response on January 19.
I had invited Patrick Horan to our meeting on June 4th with the Verizon Rep. The meeting was
declined by Patrick two minutes before it started.
On May 24, 2010, Lt. Julie Myer had asked Patrick to contact the Nextel Rep and set a meeting. On
June 1, I had asked Lt. Myer if she had heard from Patrick. She had said “No”, I had sent an email and

________________________________
Ok. After reviewing the WACs and RCW's referenced and in question I am certain this does not belong
in the IAD side of the organization. The following is how I came to this determination.
Specifically stated in the purpose of the WAC is that it is referencing assorted types of conveyances that
law enforcement would have an occasion to impound. The Title 9 RCW references that law
enforcement has the responsiblity to impound any property that is deemed stolen and to preserve said
property. The Title 42 RCW speaks to the hearing rights of individuals that claim the property and also
references the Title 34 RCW which details the required hearing process and the ability to remove the
claim out of the Administrative Law process which is civil and into the criminal court process.
The Criminal Proceeds Unit specifically relies on RCW 69.50.505 to seize property to include vehicles
and follows the mandated hearing process noted in RCW 34. The difference is that the CPU does not
consider this seizure action an impound. It is simply to retain the asset in like state until the forfeiture
process runs it course. The seizure of the vehicle is not to determine the "right of possession" as noted
in the RCW and WAC in question.
RCW 34 applies to impounded conveyances and seized convyeances however the reason for the law
enforcement possession is supported by two different RCWs.
I hope this makes sense. I would be more than willing to explain in greater detail if needed and
produce the language that lead me to this determination.
Thanks,
Rick

Hello all.
As a result of a recent major error in another state agency “forgetting” to update their WAC’s to reflect
a session change in RCW, I thought it would be timely to discuss our process at the upcoming SAF in
August.
As you all know GMR houses the WAC/Rules Coordinator position (Melissa VanGorkom) and maintains a
list of WAC rules that the agency is responsible for and by policy we are to ensure their accuracy once
every two years (or update with a statute change we know of as they occur). The attached list is a
draft of our SAF slides. Please review them for accuracy to ensure they include the WAC’s you are in
charge of.
With the intention of not blindsiding anyone, I just wanted to advise that this came up during Exec Staff
and GMR will be “reminding” everyone during SAF to ensure we are up-to-date in the WAC arena.
We will have a slide covering all of the current WAC’s that are in the process of being revised and a list,
by division, of the chapters we are responsible for overall.
Hope this helps and please call on us in GMR if we can assist further. Thanks, Jason

Hi Mike,
Hope all is well. I am sure you are well on your way now and you have a routine that is at least

He has also experienced some difficult decisions and seems to be handling those with the appropriate
amount of urgency and careful consideration. I think his biggest issue has been the turnover. He lost
Stephanie last month. He welcomed in Jeff Spear and Monica and then promptly lost Shane who is
going back to the road. He is filling that spot quickly though and when I asked about it, he seemed
very confident that it would get filled with a good person.
I will continue to see if he needs anything and be a resource to him whenever he needs me. I
appreciate your confidence in me.
If you need anything here, don’t hesitate to let me know. Take care,
Mike
Hey just starting the second week here. Nothing is too bad just being in a foreign environment with a
roommate who is not my wife, you know how that is! It took me 24 years to train the other one. I
know you are very busy but would you check on Travis and see if he needs anything? If there is any
information I can provide from this end let me know. Thanks for the help in getting Travis someone to
confide in.

Keith,
Follow up from the AC. This is probably a Julie request as well. Thanks.
Mike,
Can you please run a check for felony collisions over the last 24 months to check how many victims we
had that were under 16 years of age and whether CPS was contacted by our Detectives?
Please check out SHB 3124 which was just passed regarding duty to report.
Thanks

minors in the vehicle. To show how bad this problem is, for the past few years, radio has been tracking
the reported number of incidents involving minors.
If we are currently charging people who DUI with minors in their vehicle with reckless endangerment,

The question from the Chief involved how often the charge was applied to an adult that was
DUI/Collision that resulted in a child getting injured. Did the data show that? If not, how can we

Last evening the D2 CIU team received information from an individual, that is a former law enforcement
officer, that the group of motorcyclist the trooper was attempting to stop are the Rough Riders, an off-
shoot of the Bandito's Outlaw M/C Club. They use the Hooters Club in the area of the collision as their
hang-out. This informant has also provided information that the club president (identity unknown) was
the motorcyclist that cut the trooper off, causing the collision.
The trooper was able to obtain a couple of license plates from the bikes that did stop at the scene and
they are following up on this information. Sgt. O'Shannon said that they are working with the folks
from OMG and the fusion center on identifying and confirming the identity of all those individuals
associated with this motorcycle club. The informant has also provided information that the club
president has outstanding warrants and they are involved in criminal activity, which is the reason that
the informant did not join their club.
Sgt. O'Shannon has personnel following up with Sound Transit as they have a bus or rail that travels the
area every 7 minutes and they have a recording system. She also has personnel contacting the Hooters
establishment to obtain information from their system and to track down any employees that may have
information. They are currently monitoring several blog sites as there is some activity from individuals
that appear to have been at the scene or involved.
At this point they are gathering information and building their case. She said at this point she has
sufficient resources but as they close in on the those individuals responsible they may need additional
personnel to safely and effectively bring this case to a conclusion.

Please share this information with your employees and visitors. Tenants on SW corner of the building
on 1st floor may also want to keep windows closed until the nest is cleared.

The General Administration grounds crew received a call today (Aug. 11) about a large yellow jackets
nest located near the ADA ramp at the front (south) entrance of the GA Building. The crew responded
by placing barricades at either end of the ramp, to prevent visitors and staff from being stung.
There are ADA-complaint entrances on the north (ramp to loading dock double doors), east (double
slider at Columbia St entry) and west (entry at cafe seating) sides of the GA Building that can be used
in the meantime.
cid:image008.jpg@01CB3954.964547F0
The best practice for eliminating these nests is to remove it very early in the morning. That is when the
insects are most likely to be in the nest and are least active. The nest will be removed first thing
Thursday morning, before most tenants have arrived for work. Ramp will reopen sometime Thursday
afternoon.

Hi Detective Ducommon,
I just wanted to let you know that our episode of Gangland, "The Filthy Few," will be airing this
Friday, August 13, at 10:00PM ET on the History Channel! I will send you copies of the show after it
airs, it may take a couple weeks. Thanks so much for all your help!
Thanks!
We are interviewing two witnesses to the event at 4:00 today in Bellevue. These witnesses were two
guys that are not associated with the riding group, they were just out riding and happened to get
caught up in this. All indications are that they are solid witnesses and will provide good information to
help us locate the suspects.
Right now it appears that the Trooper was on the shoulder when a group of bikes went past him. The
two lead bikes, allegedly the two Presidents of the biker clubs, were speeding and popping wheelies as
they passed. When the Trooper followed, they allegedly cut him off and caused him to take evasive
action which resulted in his crash.
Those two did not stop at the scene. The rest of the bikers apparently did stop and were seen clapping
and taunting the Trooper after his vehicle rolled and he was injured. There is also a possibility that
some of his equipment, (possibly and laser), was taken by this group who then left the scene. That is
unconfirmed.
We are trying to develop the witnesses and the case so that we can determine the identities of the two
causing riders and determine if we have enough to obtain arrest warrants. I will keep you posted as
more comes in.
On a side note: There is apparently talk that the Trooper may have committed policy violations and an
IIR was generated by D-2. He has not been served and I spoke with Travis about timing the service so
that we get a good statement from our Trooper.
I will update you after the interviews and let you know what we have. Please call me if there is
anything else I can assist with in the mean time.
Thanks,
Greg

Thanks Dan, I appreciate the update. I have been to these scenes and I just wanted to ensure that the
Trooper(s) that responded didn’t overlook something and rush to clear the scene before properly
evaluating it to see if a crime had occurred.
If you see an opportunity to point out anything to the Trooper that may help him recognize that your
crew should have been called sooner, please do that. I always like to be a good partner to them.
Captain Dahl,
The scene was cleared before the extent of injuries were known. Once Detective Gundermann arrived
at the scene, they utilized DOT Incident Response Personnel to close the roadway. Det. Gundermann
and the troopers then took all the roadway/evidence measurements and processed the scene
accordingly. The vehicle was seized and taken to the Tacoma evidence yard.
The vehicle contains blood evidence and a cell phone believed to belong to the suspect. Det.
Gundermann is currently working on a search warrant to obtain the evidence.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

I am writing with regard to the above named investigation, concerning testimony I gave, including a
second written statement provided to Detective Clint Thompson on March 16, 2010, when I was
interviewed by Detective Thompson, and Sergeant Chris Old. On July 28, 2010, I received a copy of
the investigative report, and found that key testimony, including a diagram drawn at the request of
Detective Thompson, was not made a part of the report.
On July 29, 2010, I e-mailed Gretchen Dolan, who I had been working with since April 11, 2010, in an
attempt to gain a Public Disclosure of said investigation, and expressed concern, as follows:
“ I have some issues with the investigative report, which has now been released to me by DSHS.
Important information given to the investigating officers was not included in the report; in fact, the key
piece in support of what actually occurred. It involved my drawing a rough diagram of the work area in
order to give Detective Thompson, at his request, a clearer picture of where I was located during the
main part of the incident. This has been left entirely out of the report, and is important. Can you find
out if this testimony still exists with his notes, and is the diagram still a part of the record? It was the
most signifcant piece, and I expected it to be prominently displayed. Also, I have a question concerning
the extent of the interview of the other party to this matter. Can you tell me why the other party was
not asked specific questions like I was? I thought this was an investigation to gain facts from both
parties, and not having judged one already at fault.”
She responded by saying that she was turning my request over to the Investigative Unit, and they
would be responding to my questions. On Thursday, August 4, 2010, I received a phone call from
Sergeant Chris Old in relation to the request submitted through Gretchen Dolan, in the matter of the
missing testimony from the investigative report. He acknowledged that Detective Thompson had chosen
not to report the diagram drawn and the associated testimony, wherein I described the nature of the
assault by the other party. I asked Sergeant Old why this would not have been included, and he said
that Detective Thompson felt it wasn’t important. I asked if this was because she was considered the
victim, and I was the accused, and he verified that I, indeed, was the accused. I stated that I felt that
this could have had an influence on the testimony given, which in fact would demonstrate that I was
the actual victim. I also reiterated to Sergeant Old that I had given Detective Thompson a copy of the
second statement written on October 26, 2009, and submitted by e-mail to Kelly Cunningham on that
date. This statement had not been forwarded at the time of my testimony on March 16, 2010, and
therefore I gave him a copy of it when he asked if I had anything further to add to my statement of
October 22, 2009.
In response to being asked if I had anything to say in conclusion at the interview of March 16, 2010, I
again stated that nothing the other party had alleged I said was true, and that a complaint citing
violation of Article 47 of the Master Agreement, which concerns inappropriate workplace behavior, had
been submitted by me on July 30, 2009 to Human Resources Manager Lynne Glad, seeking relief
concerning the other party. Ms Glad stated in an e-mail to me on July 31, 2009, that she was turning
my complaint over to Kelly Cunningham and Don Gauntz, and that they would be looking into my
issues. I reported to Detective Thompson and Sergeant Old that as of March 16, 2010, neither Mr.
Cunningham, or Mr. Gauntz had ever responded to my complaint citing violation of Article 47, and that I
felt that if they had, then the other party would have been effectively put on notice and warned about
such types of inappropriate behavior.

AC Miller,
This is the information Julie Parkin provided from CITE showing the information Chief Batiste requested.
I am still working on the request you made related to CPS.
Ok according to the data in CITE there are only 4 cases since 1/1/2007 (if you would like I can go back
further)
Collision Cause = DUI related, Charge = Reckless Endangerment, Victim 16 and under.

Because I feel that a large number of children are being victimized at the hands of DUI's, about three

minors in the vehicle. To show how bad this problem is, for the past few years, radio has been tracking
the reported number of incidents involving minors.
If we are currently charging people who DUI with minors in their vehicle with reckless endangerment,
then we may largely already be addressing the problem.

Chief,
I suspect that we need to educate our people on this requirement. I will ensure that CID is updated on
this and that we do it and I will also forward the information to Captain Lamoreaux so that the academy
can include it in their training either with a power point for the field to do on line or in regional training.
Mike
The next question I have is does the number of cases (4) since 07 that we've forwarded to CPS tell us
that we are doing what's intended, or do we need to do more to educate FOB and CID personnel about
this law/tool?

Hi Barbara,
I am sorry that you feel the way you do and that you chose this approach to contact me.
The decision to attempt to seek an exemption to fill the position full time was made based on what is
best for the agency given the current difficulty in seeking exemptions from OFM to and the unlikely
hood that we would be permitted to create another half-time position in Bremerton.
If we were to be unable to fill the position full time we would then ask to fill the position half time.
I will be happy to further explain the non-personal business reasons for this decision if you wish to call
me.
Greg

Soper to have these asked today so we can continue to investigate our case. If any of the questions
are objectionable to Trp. Salyer or Trp. Soper, try to rephrase them. It is important that we get this
basic information so that we can properly and thoroughly investigate our criminal case.
Please let me or Lt. Bosman know if there is anything else that we can do to facilitate the interviews.
Thanks
Sir,
Below are the questions we would like to ask Trooper Salyer. I took out two questions reference
Trooper Salyer’s speed and distance to the motorcycles.
Thank you,
Hi Mike,
Thank you for running these questions by the trooper for us. We are asking these questions in order to
help us determine if we have enough for felony hit and run and eluding.
If we could get a basic run down of the incident as he recalls it to include the following:
What did he observe about the motorcycles (speeding, reckless driving, etc)
Was he in pursuit of the motorcycles? (all of them or a specific bike?) please explain
Were the riders aware that he was attempting to stop them? Please explain how he knows there were
aware.
Would he be able to identify the bikes or the gear the riders were wearing?
Does he believe he was intentionally cut off by one or more motorcycles? If so, please explain.
Did the actions taken by one or more motorcycles cause him to take evasive action?

Thanks for the update. I am in support of having a plan in place that allows our division to answer any
critical incident quickly, professionally and thoroughly. I looked at your first draft and I liked what I
saw. I will look at the one you sent me the other day and formulate my questions so we can sit down
and discuss it.
Rest assured, I want a plan in place that simplifies and professionalizes our response and I support the
one you guys came up with. Let’s keep working on it and get this thing done and right once and for
all.
Thank you for being patient with this. In the end, we will get the right product and it will help the
whole division.
Mike
Sir,
Acting Captain Myer told me in a telephone conversation that she took it to AC Miller who approved, as
did DC Karnitz, but that Chief Batiste did not. When I asked if there were any suggestions to improve
the plan, Julie said there were not. As I recall, Julie thought maybe they were waiting for the CID
Captain’s position to be filled and that the suggested improvements may be discussed with Davis’
replacement (You).
When Bolton and I developed the plan we tried to create a structure which could be utilized during any
major investigation. One that could be reduced or expanded upon depending on the need. We were a
little frustrated just being told the chief was not interested, without any comments as to why or
suggestions to improve. We speculated that the political climate with the Gov and or WASPC may have
played a role.
When I first came into the division in 2002 I asked then Captain Ursino why we did not have a plan for
a major investigation post 9/11 and volunteered to work on it. I explained that the public expects us to
be prepared and winging it at the last minute would not be acceptable. Ursino told me he planned on
putting together a plan. Well, he never did. Subsequently, I have asked every couple years, why we did
not have a plan. Each time I asked, I was never provided a real answer. I was always told it was in the
works.
Dave and I would be happy to jump back in and continue with the development. We were not foolish
enough to believe that the first draft would be perfect, but we put a lot of work into it in a very short
period of time and believe it will work.

I need help....
I recently advertised I was selling an engagement ring on craigslist. It is appraised for over $3000.....I
offered to sell it for $2000.....
a resident in your area, Seatac, responded and said he would pay thru paypal. I sent the item to his
address via fedex.....sent him the tracking number (793807532517)...he then emailed me some fake
emails appearing to be from paypal that they have the money in a secure account and will be credited
to my account in 48 hours....after the item was delivered.
The item was delivered yesterday....and today I confirmed with paypal that the email is a fake. I am
without the ring and the money now due to a scam from one of your residents.
I have kept the emails. have monitored the item via tracking number...and I have his address.

Mike,
I think we need to re-work the answer to question 7 (of the 8 questions on activities --- Assignment
from Bob) –
Check No.
This activity is an essential core function of CID to provide for the safety and security of the citizens of
Washington State.
What OFM wants to know is can we contract out the work of CID? If the answer is no, then we need
to explain why. Is it in statute that WSP commissioned staff do this work, or for some other reason?
Can you provide me some info as to why we can’t contract out the work?

Morhous from Olympia FOB and D8 has selected Trooper Joi Haner from Bremerton Motors. Both will
be excellent additions to the division as shown by their testing scores. I have attached Excel

Subject: Possible Fraud
Lt. Alexander,
On Wednesday August 18, 2010 at approximately 1600 hours, I received two phone calls at the
Headquarters front desk located in the General Administration Building in Olympia Washington regarding
outstanding tickets issued through photo enforcement. The first caller identified himself as Ryan
Davidson. Mr. Davidson indicated to me that he had just received a phone call from a person who
claimed to be “Trooper McGee” with the Washington State Patrol. “Trooper McGee” told Mr. Davidson
that he had the make, model, and license plate number of his vehicle, and that he was cited for a
traffic infraction via photo enforcement. “Trooper McGee” informed Mr. Davidson that the fine was near
800 dollars and will double soon if not paid. Mr. Davidson’s conversation with “Trooper McGee” ended
shortly after due to a bad connection.
Mr. Davidson stated that he called the Headquarters front desk number (360.596.4000) because that is
the number that came up on his caller ID. He also informed me that he and “Trooper McGee’s” phone
call had been disconnected once before. The number that came up the second time was
360.596.4001. I informed Mr. Davidson that there were two Troopers here at the front desk and that
neither of our names were “McGee”. While on the phone with Mr. Davidson, I checked the Washington
State Patrol Telephone Directory (revised 7/22/10 @1430) and found no “Trooper McGee”. I informed
Mr. Davidson that the call sounded fraudulent, and if he were to hear from “Trooper McGee” again to
get a badge number and call me back if there was still question.
Approximately ten minutes later, I received another call from a man asking me the same questions. I
explained to him that I had just talked with a man about the same issue and that we believed it to be
fraudulent. I asked the man to obtain more information from “Trooper McGee” if he had any further
communication with him and to call me back. This individual (name unknown) agreed that the call was
not valid and was content with disregarding the call. That is my opinion based on his demeanor and
tone of his voice.
On Thursday August 19, 2010, at 0800 hours Trooper Cadet Seth Flores and I checked the messages
on the answering machine. We received two messages regarding this same situation, these calls came
in between the hours of 1700 and 1800. The first one was from a female named Caroline
(253.761.6078). The second one was from a male named Jordan Knox (253.227.2410). I returned
both of these phone calls before 0830 Thursday. I received a call back from Mr. Knox around 0900. He
thanked me for calling him back and informed me that he had the situation taken care of. He said, “It
turned out to be a prank call.” “It was one of my buddies playing a joke on me and a couple of
friends.” I said, “So you know the person that made the call?” He replied, “yeah he was just messing
around, my sister got a call from him too.” I asked him if I could get his sister’s name. He said
hesitantly, “yeah why?” I told him that I had numerous calls from people regarding this issue. He then
told me, “Well he just called a couple of us, its not like he called a bunch of random people, I don’t
want to get anyone in trouble.” I asked him if I could get his sister’s name again, he was silent for a
moment, and I said, “I’m not asking you for her full name, just her first name will do, I just want to see
if she is one of the people that I need to call back.” He replied, “ Caroline.” I told him that was one of
the people that I had on my list to call back. He then told me, “ I don’t want to get anyone in trouble,
thanks for calling me back.”
Trooper Cadet Flores and I forwarded the caller’s information to Mr. Dan Coon in GMR, as per his

Lt. Alexander,
On Wednesday August 18, 2010 at approximately 1600 hours, I received two phone calls at the
Headquarters front desk located in the General Administration Building in Olympia Washington regarding
outstanding tickets issued through photo enforcement. The first caller identified himself as Ryan
Davidson. Mr. Davidson indicated to me that he had just received a phone call from a person who
claimed to be “Trooper McGee” with the Washington State Patrol. “Trooper McGee” told Mr. Davidson
that he had the make, model, and license plate number of his vehicle, and that he was cited for a
traffic infraction via photo enforcement. “Trooper McGee” informed Mr. Davidson that the fine was near
800 dollars and will double soon if not paid. Mr. Davidson’s conversation with “Trooper McGee” ended
shortly after due to a bad connection.
Mr. Davidson stated that he called the Headquarters front desk number (360.596.4000) because that is
the number that came up on his caller ID. He also informed me that he and “Trooper McGee’s” phone
call had been disconnected once before. The number that came up the second time was
360.596.4001. I informed Mr. Davidson that there were two Troopers here at the front desk and that
neither of our names were “McGee”. While on the phone with Mr. Davidson, I checked the Washington
State Patrol Telephone Directory (revised 7/22/10 @1430) and found no “Trooper McGee”. I informed
Mr. Davidson that the call sounded fraudulent, and if he were to hear from “Trooper McGee” again to
get a badge number and call me back if there was still question.
Approximately ten minutes later, I received another call from a man asking me the same questions. I
explained to him that I had just talked with a man about the same issue and that we believed it to be
fraudulent. I asked the man to obtain more information from “Trooper McGee” if he had any further
communication with him and to call me back. This individual (name unknown) agreed that the call was
not valid and was content with disregarding the call. That is my opinion based on his demeanor and
tone of his voice.
On Thursday August 19, 2010, at 0800 hours Trooper Cadet Seth Flores and I checked the messages
on the answering machine. We received two messages regarding this same situation, these calls came
in between the hours of 1700 and 1800. The first one was from a female named Caroline
(253.761.6078). The second one was from a male named Jordan Knox (253.227.2410). I returned
both of these phone calls before 0830 Thursday. I received a call back from Mr. Knox around 0900. He
thanked me for calling him back and informed me that he had the situation taken care of. He said, “It
turned out to be a prank call.” “It was one of my buddies playing a joke on me and a couple of
friends.” I said, “So you know the person that made the call?” He replied, “yeah he was just messing
around, my sister got a call from him too.” I asked him if I could get his sister’s name. He said
hesitantly, “yeah why?” I told him that I had numerous calls from people regarding this issue. He then
told me, “Well he just called a couple of us, its not like he called a bunch of random people, I don’t
want to get anyone in trouble.” I asked him if I could get his sister’s name again, he was silent for a
moment, and I said, “I’m not asking you for her full name, just her first name will do, I just want to see
if she is one of the people that I need to call back.” He replied, “ Caroline.” I told him that was one of
the people that I had on my list to call back. He then told me, “ I don’t want to get anyone in trouble,
thanks for calling me back.”
Trooper Cadet Flores and I forwarded the caller’s information to Mr. Dan Coon in GMR, as per his
request. He informed us that he had some similar calls on Thursday afternoon.

The 911 tapes from the Salyer case were released yesterday through public disclosure. None of the
phone calls included witnesses to the taunting. A couple of media are questioning that angle.
Is Salyer the only source or do we have other witnesses? Perhaps people who didn’t call in but who
were at the scene?

Subject: Purchase Request
Good morning Vicky! Hope you are well! I need to find out more details in regards to the request
below, specifically, the BlackBerry and Aircard requests. Supply handles any cell phone purchases you
may have.
For the aircard purchases, please send me approval via email, the budget code to use for the monthly
service and for the purchase of the card (if different), and the employee’s first and last name so we can
start processing each purchase. I will forward the approval shortly. I have added the budget code for
each person to the attached spreadsheet. I would like the statement/invoice to come here to
voucher/process payment.
For the BlackBerry purchases, I need approval to purchase these as well, and the budget code to use
for the monthly service and for the purchase of the device (if different), which ones want or need to
take their existing cellular number with them to the new BlackBerry, which ones have or need Voyager
(see table below), which carrier it is from and going to (being specific about whether it is a cell phone
device or BlackBerry device), and any cell account information if it is a cell device to BlackBerry device
since ITD does not have that account information. I think that will give me a good start. All numbers
are to be ported to the new device, except the ones that are noted in the spreadsheet to have a new
number issued. On the spreadsheet, I have noted who has a BB currently and who is changing their cell
to a BB, any that have not notation will remain using a cell phone. The Larry’s account number
(Nextel/Sprint) for the cell phones is – 423091312. I know Ron is going to combine both the BB and
Cell into one account so that all minutes are pooled. I would like the statement/invoice to come here to
voucher/process payment.
In lieu of your team’s research, and to expedite your request; ITD is moving forward with purchasing
and porting over of existing Sprint/Nextel BlackBerry users to a Verizon BlackBerry without testing the
Voyager Query application or validating the Push to Talk feature, which is not currently in use on any of
our Verizon BlackBerry devices. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks in advance!

AC Miller,
I reviewed this email and the article. I also reviewed the blogs that followed the article and despite the
information being put out, there were still people that were suspicious of the police officers actions.
That said, I don’t have a problem giving the information out piece meal to avert the long silences that
allow people’s imaginations to run wild. As long as we have good controls in place that ensure that we
do not release information that compromises the case, or potential follow up with witnesses, I am OK
going this route.
I can coordinate with Captain Berry to put the parameters in place and let you know how it comes out.
Thanks,
Hi Mike,

Hi Chief-
Per our earlier discussion and at your request, this e-mail is to outline one potential tool that we could
use during ongoing investigations when public interest or more commonly mis-informed public criticism
threatens to harm the agency’s reputation.
The Kitsap County Sheriff’s office is currently investigating an officer-involved shooting out of Poulsbo
PD. There was video in the car, along with a Navy petty officer on a ride-along. However, the deceased
subject’s family became publicly critical of the shooting. They portrayed the deceased subject as a
sympathetic young man who’d struggled, but was turning his life around. They made accusations
against the officer and were starting to get traction with the media.
The typical agency response in such cases is an early release of very broad facts and then stark silence
until there is a decision from the prosecutor. In some cases that can mean the public labors for months
thinking terrible things about an officer or an agency.
In this case, KCSO ran the attached news release several days after the shooting, a time when most
agencies are silent. It contained facts that were known, proven and highly unlikely to change. It did not
contain conclusions, and their PIO did not entertain follow-up questions. The result was a story that
shot down the outlandish claims and pretty much ended the media coverage. The story is here:
http://www.kitsapsun.com/news/2010/jul/29/sheriffs-office-preliminary-investigation-confirms/
This follows the NTSB model of releasing “what you know, when you know it.” The NTSB does some
very complex investigations which, while not criminal, certainly do end up in court. Yet they have found
a technique for releasing updates that doesn’t compromise their final conclusion.
I believe this type of update release is a tool that we should have available to use when the situation
dictates. We don’t need to do it in every case, because not all situations require it.
· Sometimes the media frenzy is so intense that it interferes with the investigation. An effective
news release can help make the media go home, leaving detectives to work in peace.
· Sometimes the potential damage to an agency or officer simply must be addressed. It is a sad
fact that media coverage is much more intense immediately after an event. They do not do as good a
job of reporting, months later, that the prosecutor cleared an officer. The damage is done and is hard to
undo.
My purpose in sharing this with you is to initiate the discussion now, and not in the middle of an
investigation that might be both complex and emotional. I would be happy to answer any questions you
might have, or discuss the concept further with you or your team.
Regards,
Bob Calkins

This article was sent to us for our Detectives to use in investigations. However, I know you facebook and so does your family and friends. This article makes it clear that you should be very careful about what pictures and comments you post. Criminals are using the embedded information in the photos (GPS is on your Blackberry) and your comments to determine who to
burglarize or what kids to target.
Please be VERY careful about posting photos showing the kids and your house. I don’t want one of these hackers to show up there.
nytimes
When Adam Savage, host of the popular science program “MythBusters,” posted a picture on Twitter of his automobile parked in front of his house, he let his fans know much more than that he drove a Toyota Land Cruiser.
Embedded in the image was a geotag, a bit of data providing the longitude and latitude of where the photo was taken. Hence, he revealed exactly where he lived. And since the accompanying text was “Now it’s off to work,” potential thieves knew he would not be at home.
Security experts and privacy advocates have recently begun warning about the potential dangers of geotags, which are embedded in photos and videos taken with GPS-equipped smartphones and digital cameras <http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=12k3qst18/**http%3A/gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/07/28/why-dont-more-cameras-offer-gps/> . Because the location data
is not visible to the casual viewer, the concern is that many people may not realize it is there; and they could be compromising their privacy, if not their safety, when they post geotagged media online.
Mr. Savage said he knew about geotags. (He should, as host of a show popular with technology followers <http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=12sc3li7u/**http%3A/www.nytimes.com/2006/11/21/science/21myth.html%3Fscp=2%26sq=mythbusters%26st=cse> .) But he said he had neglected to disable the function on his iPhone before taking the picture and uploading it to
Twitter.
“I guess it was a lack of concern because I’m not nearly famous enough to be stalked,” he said, “and if I am, I want a raise.”
Still, Mr. Savage has since turned off the geotag feature on his iPhone, and he isn’t worried about the archived photo on Twitter because he has moved to a new residence.
But others may not be so technologically informed or so blasé about their privacy.
“I’d say very few people know about geotag capabilities,” said Peter Eckersley, a staff technologist with the Electronic Frontier Foundation in San Francisco, “and consent is sort of a slippery slope when the only way you can turn off the function on your smartphone is through an invisible menu that no one really knows about.”
Indeed, disabling the geotag function generally involves going through several layers of menus until you find the “location” setting, then selecting “off” or “don’t allow.” But doing this can sometimes turn off all GPS capabilities, including mapping, so it can get complicated.
The Web site ICanStalkU.com <http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=10rc8jn1p/**http%3A/ICanStalkU.com/> provides step-by-step instructions <http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=11c9v70hr/**http%3A/icanstalku.com/how.php%23disable> for disabling the photo geotagging function on iPhone, BlackBerry, Android and Palm devices.
A person’s location is also revealed while using services like Foursquare and Gowalla as well as when posting to Twitter from a GPS-enabled mobile device, but the geographical data is not hidden as it is when posting photos.
A handful of academic researchers and independent Web security analysts, who call themselves “white hat hackers,” have been trying to raise awareness about geotags by releasing studies and giving presentations <http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=13b6tp9hg/**http%3A/blogs.forbes.com/firewall/2010/07/19/researchers-show-how-twitter-twitpic-make-stalking-simple/> at
technology get-togethers like the Hackers On Planet Earth, or Next HOPE <http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=10solm2me/**http%3A/thenexthope.org/> , conference held last month in New York.
Their lectures and papers demonstrate the ubiquity of geotagged photos and videos on Web sites like Twitter, YouTube, Flickr and Craigslist, and how these photos can be used to identify a person’s home and haunts.
Many of the pictures show people’s children playing in or around their homes. Others reveal expensive cars, computers and flat-screen televisions. There are also pictures of people at their friends’ houses or at the Starbucks they visit each morning.
By downloading free browser plug-ins like the Exif Viewer for Firefox (addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3905/ <http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=11o898ff1/**http%3A/addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3905/> ) or Opanda IExif for Internet Explorer (opanda.com/en/iexif/ <http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=110gn5kp3/**http%3A/opanda.com/en/iexif/> ), anyone can
pinpoint the location where the photo was taken and create a Google map.
Moreover, since multimedia sites like Twitter and YouTube have user-friendly application programming interfaces, or A.P.I.’s, someone with a little knowledge about writing computer code can create a program to search for geotagged photos in a systematic way. For example, they can search for those accompanied with text like “on vacation” or those taken in a specified
neighborhood.
“Any 16 year-old with basic programming skills can do this,” said Gerald Friedland, a researcher at the International Computer Science Institute at the University of California, Berkeley. He and a colleague, Robin Sommer, wrote a paper, “Cybercasing the Joint: On the Privacy Implications of Geotagging
<http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=18fimfajv/**http%3A/www.google.com/url%3Fsa=t%26source=web%26cd=1%26ved=0CBcQFjAA%26url=http%253A%252F%252Fwww.icsi.berkeley.edu%252Fpubs%252Fnetworking%252Fcybercasinghotsec10.pdf%26ei=VRZfTKWOKYH48Aaxt5m2DQ%26usg=AFQjCNFao3oZgrGHMocb6OaezV_K4Rpckg%26sig2=2r3Dc2r2KRTW6wWIz_NVLg>
,” which they presented on Tuesday at a workshop in Washington during the Advanced Computing Systems Association’s annual conference on security.
The paper provides three examples of so-called cybercasing that use photos posted on Twitter and Craigslist and a homemade video on YouTube.
By looking at geotags and the text of posts, Mr. Sommer said, “you can easily find out where people live, what kind of things they have in their house and also when they are going to be away.”
“Our intent is not to show how it’s done,” he said, “but raise awareness so people can understand their devices and turn off those options if they want to.”
ICanStalkU.com, developed by the security consultants Larry Pesce of the NWN Corporation in Waltham, Mass., and Ben Jackson of Mayhemic Labs in Boston, uses a more direct approach to warning about the potential dangers of geotags. The site displays a real-time stream of geotagged photos posted on Twitter; the person who posted the photo also gets a notification
via Twitter.
“The reaction from people is either anger, like ‘I’m going to punch you out,’ or ‘No duh, like I didn’t already know that’ or ‘Oh my God, I had no idea,’ ” Mr. Pesce said.
In the latter category was Cristina Parker of El Paso, who sells appliances part-time at Kmart and also manages social media for small companies. ICanStalkU.com notified her last week that a photo she had posted on Twitter of her Chihuahua, Zipp, also revealed where she lived.
“I immediately tweeted back to find out what I can do about it,” said Ms. Parker. The site sent her a Web link to instructions on how to turn off the geotag function on her LG Ally smartphone. “It’s definitely good to know for me personally and because of my social media work, too,” she said
Because of the way photographs are formatted by some sites like Facebook and Match.com, geotag information is not always retained when an image is uploaded, which provides some protection, albeit incidental. Other sites like Flickr have recently taken steps <http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/SIG=11pgtu3ea/**http%3A/www.flickr.com/help/map/%3Fsearch=geo%2523202> to
block access to geotag data on images taken with smartphones unless a user explicitly allows it.
But experts say the problem goes far beyond social networking and photo sharing Web sites, regardless of whether they offer user privacy settings.
“There are so many places where people upload photos, like personal blogs and bulletin boards,” said Johannes B. Ullrich, chief technology officer of the SANS Technology Institute, which provides network security training and monitors the Internet for emerging security threats.
Protecting your privacy is not just a matter of being aware and personally responsible, said Mr. Sommer, the researcher. A friend may take a geotagged photo at your house and post it.
“You need to educate yourself and your friends but in the end, you really have no control,” he said, adding that he was considering writing a program to troll the Internet for photos with geotags corresponding to users’ home addresses.
In lieu of you actually calling me and giving me specific names and dates that this occurred, I am only
able to address this with a broad comment to the VIN office and not handle the person (s) specifically.
I can’t pinpoint an issue or problem unless I have the specifics that you may have.

I am requesting approval to purchase the hard drive listed below. It is to store a mirror image of a

Hi John,
We will need a 1 TB SATA hard drive to clone the DVR hard drive to. They are between $70 -$100 and

The AG just got back to me and would like us to clone the hard drive and then we can return the

The format of the video is only viewable on the DVR machine. I’ve seen the video and it will play, but
only with the DVR system. No one has asked to view it yet, so it’s just sitting in our evidence room. If
I remember right, the only reason we were hanging on to it was to see if the wife was at the tavern
that night and who she was with. I believe I have the image files from the DVR on a different hard
drive, but again, it’s only viewable with the system. Would the patrol be able to replace the DVR unit
for the tavern and keep the original? I can’t imagine those units cost very much.

system back. I believe it was given on consent and now they are requesting to have it returned. I told
her I would get more information and get back to her soon. What would you like me to tell her?

Just called Comcast, if we change to basic cable service, channels 2-29, which includes all local news
channels and Northwest Cable News too, would only7 be $24.99 per television. It would be a 3-year
contract for this service.
Let me know if you would like me to move forward with the downgrade or cancellation.

Jeff,
We got approval from the DC to fill the Detective position in Tacoma. We selected Ian Morhaus and we
would like to have him start as soon as possible to relieve some of the work load on the unit.
I would like to have him starting the 1st of September, but I understand if that is too quick of a turn
around. Can you please let me know?

Approved, please set this up and get ITD on board. Thank you Vicky
If you agree, I would like to set up the training/implementation date on Friday, September 10th. I
would think that would give everyone enough time to do what they need to do for the BB’s. It gives
Ron enough time to set up his team to come here. It gives everyone a good head’s up if they wanted
to come here for training. I will check with ITD as well to see if that is enough time for them, as well.
Thanks,
Vicky
I understand, and understand about the billing. I don’t want the big gap either. I am glad you are
letting me know.
I will be in contact with Supply when they receive the BB’s and then with ITD to when they receive the
BB’s , and when we are going to receive the BB’s. Let me check the Captain, Lieutenants and
Sergeants schedules and set up a date. I would assume within a two week period would be safe bet…
Thanks,
Vicky
The only issue I have is I need to give several days to the implementation team to come down for the
account set up and training. I don’t want to have a big gap from the time the devices are ready until
they’re ready to be deployed. I will probably put the order through today with the approval going to
you. We’ll set up the implementation when we have a better idea of the timeframe. I just want to
remind you that the billing starts when the devices are shipped, so that is why I’m trying to avoid as
much overlap as possible.
The Blackberries and data cards go through ITD, but the cells come here. I would like the billing on
one account, since the minutes are pooled and it makes it easier to track it. I think the implementation
date may depend on how long it takes ITD to test the push to talk? And when they have the
Blackberries set-up. Does this help??
Thanks,
Vicky
Vicky,
I think I have everything that I need to get the order processed. It is my understanding the
Blackberries and data cards have to go through ITD before they are deployed, but the regular phones
go directly to you. Is this correct? Also, I want to make sure that the billing will be on one account for
this, and we’ll want to determine an implementation date when our team comes to you for the training.
Thanks.

Ian is currently assigned to a detachment that is down to four bodies of seven, three after Ian leaves.
To allow the adjustment to staffing assignment from other detachments, I need until Sept. 16 to

Mr. Kassel,
In cooperation with the Governor’s office, and in support of the Continuity of Government (COG),
Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 42.14, the WSP will assist pre-designated officials in the event of a
catastrophic emergency.
In the event of a catastrophe, (earthquake, flood, major civil unrest, volcanic eruption), the Governor or
the State Emergency Operations Center (EOC) will initiate the request for assistance through our
agency. We will activate the plan and contact Mr. Goldmark to provide transportation or assistance with
communication to the Governor or the EOC.
I have attached an information sheet that has the information on it that we will need so that if a
response is needed, we can locate and secure Mr. Goldmark. If you can fill in the blanks, that will
make our meeting quicker. Also, when you provide the address, any maps, directions or geographic
information that will help us get to him sooner would really help.
If there is anything I can do ahead of our meeting, please don’t hesitate to contact me personally.
Thank You for the assistance.
Dennis,
Please get an 095 over to Bambino to sign and thank him for this. I always appreciate it when we take
care of each other.
FYI Captain.
Major,
Nice job on this one. Based on my conversations with Sgt. Percival, it sounds like the suspect was
getting psyched up to attack Trooper Marcus (flexing his muscles, clenching fists, etc). He has a history
of assaults on police officers so this is not a stretch. I’m glad you recognized the abnormal traffic stop
in progress and that you stopped to assist. Your mere presence was all it took to deflate the suspect’s
motivation.
Dave
Dave,
I just reviewed a felony DUI case file submitted by Trooper Barry Marcus from August 5, 2010
investigation. It was quite evident that the assistance Detective Major Bambino provided Trooper
Marcus extinguished what would have been a likely, violent-physical altercation between the suspect
and the trooper.
The details in the case file and those provided to me in a brief conversation with you yesterday, indicate
exceptional assessment, situational awareness and keen law enforcement and preservation instincts are
possessed by your detective. Detective Bambino’s initiative and decisive action to observe and properly
assess the actions of the suspect prior to and after the stop, led him to contact the scene, identify
himself while off duty and provide his welcomed presence.
It is clear to me that his actions kept Trooper Marcus safe from immanent attack from the suspect, who
had; a plan, motive, obvious physical ability, he was attempting to create an opportunity and this
environment was one of jeopardy for the trooper.
Please pass along my deep gratitude to Detective Bambino for his exceptional police work and for his
selfless actions to help out one of our officers who has in a tough spot.
Thank you.
Pat
I stopped Dennis Harvey on eastbound I-90 at 287 for lane travel, appearing to be intoxicated, swerving
into another lane, etc. on August 5, 2010. The defendant did not react appropriatly to my emergency
lights and exited to Argonne where he then turned south onto Argonne then turned west onto Mission
and pulled into the Perkins parking lot. His actions were suspicious to say the least.
After he stopped I exited my car and he quickly exited his. I had to keep giving him commands to 'back
off, get his license, etc.' As this was going on I saw a black SUV pull into the parking lot. The driver
turned out to be Major Bambino and his wife was with him. I moved behind the defendant when he had
his head in his vehicle and when Major gave me the 'Code 4' sign I signaled to him that it was not.
Major then exited his car and walked over to us. This move seemed to surprise the defendant and when
Major identified himself as a WSP Detective, the air seemed to go out of him. He refused FST's and was
subsequently arrested for DUI.
Both Major Bambino and myself were of the opinion that the defendant was trying to set me up and
possibly try and take me out physically. Later it was determined that the defendant had four prior DUI's
within the past 10 years and was looking to go back to prison in Idaho for a felony DUI, because of his
getting arrested for DUI on this night. The defendants actions and mood swings throughout the night
reinforced my belief that he was trying to get the drop on me that night. If Major Bambino had not
arrive and assisted me I believe a fight would have ensued. The defendant refused a BAC test and I
was able to get a search warrant for his blood.
My thanks and appreciation go out to Major for seeing what was going on and not just driving by.
Obviously his instincts were right on that night.

Loren,
Can you give me some information on this team? When did we join this and what is the function? Do
we have a signed agreement or list of responsibilities, team members, etc.
AC Miller,
The information below is from an email that Steve Davis put out last year clarifying our role at the
McNeil Island SCC. It clearly states the Chiefs position on the matter. I have some other information as
well that will clear up the question of our response to DSHS. I will get that to you shortly.
In early February, the WSP and CID were advised by PCSO that they would no longer be handling
investigations at state owned facilities. We understood this could have a significant impact in Pierce
County and statewide. The CID Team in usual fashion took on this added challenge to serve the
citizens of Washington.
I know there have been cases in the last month related to this decision.
As we all in CID know well, RCW 36.28.010, makes the county sheriff the chief law enforcement officer
of the county. This is at the core of our right of first refusal process. Inversely the sheriff is obligated
by the same law to investigate all crimes in the county.
The Chief has made the decision that these crimes are under the jurisdiction of, and should be
investigated by the county. He advised PCSO, DOC and DSHS of his decision last night.
I expect some confusion amongst our partners in law enforcement, DOC, and DSHS. We need to do
our best at smoothing out any tension that comes up.
I know this will produce many questions and I do not have all the answers yet. Please help us by
sending your lieutenant and me all questions you may have ASAP, so we can compile them and get a
response out to everyone. In the short term, if we get any requests for investigations please let us
know right away and we will work out a decision with you. If an emergent request comes in, and it is
in the best interest to respond please do so.
FYI:
§ Dan Hall – Please discuss this with Captain DePalma and Communications
§ Chris Old – I do not think it will have much impact on your crew – let us know
§ Ken Wade – We are not sure how this will affect your responses to Eastern

I wanted to extend my condolences to you and your family. I lost my Dad about two years ago and it
was tough. It seems that no matter how old they are or how old we are, it is always too soon for them
to go. It is tough for a while, but it gets easier with time as the significant dates like birthdays and
anniversaries come and go. Hang in there and take care of your family.
I hope that you and your family can find some peace in the memories that you have and that you know
that we are all thinking about your family during this time.
Mike
We have determined that when this agreement was all but shelved formally due to some language in
the agreement that our AG and the Command Staff at the time did not like, that it turned in to an
informal agreement to participate. Judging by the emails that we retrieved, there were meetings and
discussions that went to a certain point and then stopped.
It appears that we participate with the group and respond when asked. I will plan to meet with you
discuss formalizing the agreement and bring the original draft with me so we can ensure we are not
committing to something we can’t commit to.
Mike, please have your Lieutenant look into the status of our participation with the teams that the Chief
is inquiring about (below) and let me know where we are at.
Thanks,

Dave, Greg, provided we’re not boxed in with how agreements are written, these shooting teams can
well serve all agencies needs. Let’s do a follow-up with Spokane. When original talks of putting a
shooting team together came up, Retired DC Beckley and I went over to Spokane in order to personally
talk with Spokane’s sheriff and the Police chief about the concept and to let them know that we were
interested in playing. If they are still working on pulling it together, we’d still like to be a part of their
process. We should also follow-up with Clark/Skamania counties to see if they’ve had a change of heart
and are interested in letting us play. We do have plenty of examples that we can share with them
about our involvement in other multi agency shoot teams around the state that are doing just fine.
Also, as an update, some time ago Beckley and I got together with Thurston County’s sheriff and chiefs
and they agreed to let us play. Have they not been including us in the areas officer involved shooting
investigations?

________________________________
Dear Agency Directors, could you please prepare and submit to me by the end of this week a list of the
regulations you will or will likely adopt within the next 12 months. Most importantly, I am hoping to
identify those new or amended rules that would impose additional costs, direct or indirect, on
businesses operating in the state.
I don’t need anything elaborate, an email list is fine, and if you have a large number of rules that
address roughly the same issues (fish and wildlife seasons/catch limits), clumping if fine. I realize that
some rough estimating will be necessary, but do your best and try to have your list to me by the end of
the week. Thank you.

Good morning,
I wanted to take a few minutes and cover a couple things that I have been thinking about over the last
few weeks. It has been a little over three months since I joined the division and I am incredibly proud
to be here. I knew before I came in that I was joining a great team and that without a doubt, I was
coming in to a division that enjoys a great reputation, inside and outside the agency. Even having
known that, I have still been surprised at how good you actually are.
Specifically, in the last few weeks, I have read your summary reports, emails and received phone calls
and personal accounts of the events that you have been to either as the lead or in an assistance role.
To say the least, I am impressed and very proud.
We have been to homicide scenes in multiple places around the state, collisions, explosions, officer
involved shootings, embezzlement cases, warrants, and criminal cases of every kind and unfortunately,
fires; including the one that took the lives of three of our team mates. On that case, it was highly
emotional and personal for everyone and yet you were able to put that aside and do the job. As much
as we like to say it’s just part of the job, and it is, it is also a testament to your professionalism.
We are catching car thieves, identity thieves, scammers and every other manner of bad guy out there.
I was at detective’s in-service yesterday and I told them that I continue to marvel at how no matter
what the case is or what it involves, we somehow rise to the challenge and do the job at a high level.
The kind of work that gives other agencies and prosecutors the confidence that when they call, we will
answer and the job will be done at the highest level. You are into everything and there is never a time
when you guys cry uncle or say it’s too hard. That is very honorable.
We also have a fantastic administrative staff all over the state. I hear all the time how the offices are
really run by the administrative assistants and without them; we would be unable to function. All those
that I have met or spoken with have shown again, why they were selected for their positions. The
professionalism they show and dedication often under stressful conditions and huge volumes of work
inspires me as well. Believe me, the lieutenants and I have noticed and we are grateful to have you.
Our VIN inspectors are also working under tough times with budget issues, closures of some inspection
locations and constant scheduling issues. I know you folks catch the first line grief from the public
especially when they don’t like to follow the laws or rules and you somehow manage to stay cool under
pressure. Thank you for that.
This division continues to enjoy a great reputation within the agency and it is my honor to serve with
you. I take every opportunity that I have to talk about your work and let people know that you are
professional and talented and yet incredibly humble. Trust me when I say that all the Chiefs and
Division Commanders know who you are and what you are capable of and it provides them a great
sense of security.
The lieutenants and I are working on some things that we believe will enhance your jobs and we are
constantly looking for process improvements. Despite our budget woes, we have still managed to keep
our division rolling forward. You are all doing a great job of handling change and still providing
exceptional service to our customers and in the end that is what it is all about. This is an economic
tough time, but we will get through it and then start to fill all the openings that we have and replenish
our supplies and equipment. We are working on these things here at HQ but when you have concerns
or questions, please bring them forward. Even if we can’t fix it now, we can begin to build a list so that
when we do have funds, we know what to buy and which direction to go.
I have gotten to several locations around the state to visit you and those that I haven’t visited; I will be
coming out to see you soon. I have asked ahead of time so that I know someone will be there and to
make sure I am not getting in the way of your work. So I hope to see you soon. In the mean time,
please let your sergeants or lieutenants know if there is anything we can assist you with.
Thank you again for the warm welcome that you have given me. I realize that change can be tough
and the uncertainty of getting a new captain is a little daunting. I have gotten emails and calls from
many of you welcoming me and I appreciate it. You are the best of the best and I am honored to serve
with you. Please continue to take care of each other as you have. This is a phenomenal division and
you can be proud to be in it no matter what your role.
Sincerely,
AC Miller,
I have asked our Sergeants and the responses were generally the same;
We try to book every suspect. Unless we are unable to due to injury, transport to a hospital out of
area or the suspect is otherwise incapacitated, we book them.
Mike
Mike,
Good job by Loren in booking this suspect. Does CID attempt to book all VH/VA suspects when
possible?
Thanks

Suspect vehicle was south on SR 97 after pulling out of a private driveway. Suspect vehicle lost control,
slid across the northbound lane, left the roadway where it rolled over, and came to rest in an orchard.
The passenger was seriously injured, was taken to a local hospital, and was flown to Harborview. The
suspect was arrested for vehicular assault (DUI) and was booked into the Okanogan County Jail.

Subject: FW: DUIs with children in vehicle
Date: Thursday, September 02, 2010 9:09:00 AM
The emails below indicate that the Academy is going to have an on line training to educate the agency
about calling CPS during DUI with children in the vehicle. CID will still make it a point to let our
detectives know about it so that when we are at the collision scenes we can consider charges.
We are putting together an online training even though they have been previously advised. A reminder
is always good. I will update you early next week.

Thanks Mike.
AC Hattell, for FOB personnel, we'll need to mirror whatever CID and the Academy put together.
Chief,
I suspect that we need to educate our people on this requirement. I will ensure that CID is updated on
this and that we do it and I will also forward the information to Captain Lamoreaux so that the academy
can include it in their training either with a power point for the field to do on line or in regional training.
Mike
The next question I have is does the number of cases (4) since 07 that we've forwarded to CPS tell us
that we are doing what's intended, or do we need to do more to educate FOB and CID personnel about
this law/tool?

AC Miller,
This is the information Julie Parkin provided from CITE showing the information Chief Batiste requested.
I am still working on the request you made related to CPS.
Ok according to the data in CITE there are only 4 cases since 1/1/2007 (if you would like I can go back
further)
Collision Cause = DUI related, Charge = Reckless Endangerment, Victim 16 and under.
07-006538

I received your email and I will get a response to you as soon as possible.

________________________________
Because I feel that a large number of children are being victimized at the hands of DUI's, about three
years ago I attempted to gain legislative support to bring specific charges against adults who DUI with
minors in the vehicle. To show how bad this problem is, for the past few years, radio has been tracking
the reported number of incidents involving minors.
If we are currently charging people who DUI with minors in their vehicle with reckless endangerment,
then we may largely already be addressing the problem.
________________________________
Since Vehicular Assault has a reckless prong I am sure that the courts consider reckless endangerment
as a lesser included offense.
I see where you are going though - I wonder if there is an additional specific child abuse statute that
would apply? If nothing else, CPS should be consulted and we should probably ensure we have a
process for notifying CPS in cases like this so they can conduct a concurrent investigation...
________________________________
Greg, Mike, I'd like to know how often does our detectives charge individuals with Reckless
Endangerment, when the collision involves a minor that is seriously inured while riding in a vehicle with
a DUI adult?

________________________________
A month or so ago I sent out a feeler looking for ideas to put on some additional training for our Officer
Involved team. The response was overwhelming....(crickets chirping) so I looked into options for
scheduling something in Sept/Oct. I then saw that FBI/NA is sponsoring a case review regarding Line of
Duty Death Responses and have presenters from Lakewood PD, Pierce CO SO and Seattle PD. It would
be difficult to put together any class/presentation that would stand up to this. So I am sending all TPD
detectives to this presentation, and trying to get Admin to attend as well, on Thursday October 7, 2010
@ CJTC. The cost is $25 each and a boxed lunch is included. Unless there are objections we will call
this our Fall/Winter Officer Involved team training.
I would like to get together within a few weeks after the presentation and discuss any points of interest
that were presented and see your happy faces once again. I'll schedule it out after the presentation
after touching bases with you.

Gentlemen,
I have revised the MOU for the regional C.I.I.T. and have emailed it to the regional sheriffs for their
review and comment. I anticipate hearing from them in the next few days and as soon as we have a
final draft we will forward it to you for your review. The changes that were made to the MOU were
minor in nature and will allow for the participation of the WSP on the team, nothing else of substance in
the MOU was changed.

AC Miller,
I met with Melissa Stricklett this week to discuss our budget. She has projected that if we maintain
current spending levels we will overcome the deficit created by the Long Beach shooting and actually
have a positive variance of just over $156,000. I see no reason right now why that will change.
Mike
Hello Commanders,
As I discussed with each of you, we believe we will be able to finish out the biennium by continuing to
do what we are already doing. Please review the attached information (and the email below) and let
me know if you have any reason to believe that you will not be able to maintain your current rate of
spending for the rest of this biennium.
Thanks,
Greg

Please carefully review this proposal to meet these fiscal year reductions mandated by OFM and
determine whether your divisions will be able to achieve these targets that are based on first year
spending and savings trends.
We are meeting again next Tuesday after exec staff to discuss this plan for the current fiscal year cuts.
We will also be doing the heavy lifting on the 2011-2013 directed 10% GF and the 5%, 7%, and 10%
SPHA cut exercises.
Thank you.
DC:
Here’s our analysis of getting to the $2.181M GF and $5.5M SPHA reductions for FY 2011. We feel it
can be accomplished almost exclusively with keeping the current vacancies and freeze in place.
What we did in the attached is apply reductions (see targeted reductions columns) to specific divisions
based upon the savings they accrued in the first year of the biennium. There are some cases were
divisions are contributing to another cut (such as the statewide IT savings) where we lessened they cut
to their budget.
The only place we added a cut where there were no first year savings, was in the Electronic Services
Special Projects Account (PI 381). We needed to cut about $200K from there to get to the balance.
ESD has $1.9 million for network infrastructure upgrade in that account. And, although not ideal, we
feel they can accommodate this reduction. Realistically, the next step for me would be to reduce other
discretionary equipment expenditures such as vehicles. So, hopefully, ESD can accept this minor
reduction in the big picture.
We are prepared to brief this worksheet at next Tuesday’s budget meeting. I can also discuss it with
you this afternoon. Available anytime

________________________________
Yes, KCSO is primary, but we are assisting them with the investigation.
At this point it does appear to be random. The suspect had out of state plates and appeared to be
living out of his vehicle.
Jason and his wife are doing some major construction on their property and the suspect may have
been after some of the equipment, but at this point that is only speculation. They have a fairly long
(approx. 100 feet) driveway that is heavily treed and secluded, and their property is not visible from the
main roadway (as far as I could tell in the dark anyway).
So either this is purely random or the guy had cased the property sometime earlier.
When Jason confronted the guy in his driveway, just outside of his the garage area, the suspect struck
him in the head with what appeared to be a 2-2 1/2 foot long crowbar. That was when he fired the
three shots and hit the guy.
This is all I have at this point as I did not want to impede KCSO's investigation. I left Huntington and
Presba on-scene to assist and update me if anything new came up. No further news has been received
as of yet.

Interesting read. Does anyone know if we have anything like this; should we? The form SPD uses is
attached….Travis
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2012856125_policeshooting10m.html
When a Seattle police officer shoots someone, up to 11 questions are immediately asked
Within minutes of fatally shooting a First Nations totem carver at a busy downtown intersection, Seattle
police Officer Ian Birk was required to immediately answer up to 11 questions designed to preserve
evidence, protect public safety and establish key facts.
The questioning by a supervisor fell under a policy adopted by the department last year to gain crucial
information at the scene of officer-involved shootings.
While the policy has been invoked in several police shootings — involving fatalities and injuries — its
use during the Aug. 30 shooting of John T. Williams could prove important as Birk's actions have come
under growing scrutiny and criticism.
Williams, 50, was shot when he failed to obey three commands from Birk to drop a knife he was
carrying, according to police. Critics have said that Birk overreacted, without considering other options
such as calling for backup to help deal with Williams, a public inebriate who had told people he was
deaf in one ear.
What the initial questions didn't reveal is Birk's reasoning for the shooting. Under the policy, officers are
not asked that question until later, when they are questioned by homicide detectives and compelled to
provide a written statement within three days of the shooting.
Birk ultimately reported that he felt his safety was in jeopardy, according to the department.
Even without immediately obtaining that piece of information, the initial questioning allows other officers
to take immediate actions if necessary to protect the public and provides investigators with a framework
in their effort to unravel what happened.
The answers can be used only for the Police Department's investigative purposes, not for any criminal
prosecution, which is also the case for an officer's later, more detailed statement.
The questionnaire was added to the department's policy overseeing officers' discharge of firearms in
July 2009 as part of contract negotiations. When an officer shoots someone, a supervisor is required to
immediately fill out a card called a Public Safety Statement.
"This is a compelled statement," the form says, with the word compelled underlined.
"The main reason for this is just what the policy says — it's a public-safety order," said Deputy Chief
Clark Kimerer, who chairs the department's Firearms Review Board. "The idea is that the officer is
compelled to immediately answer a series of questions: where his rounds went, whether other shots
were fired, whether there are other suspects and the like."
But it serves another purpose as well, Kimerer said. It allows the department to "freeze" the scene —
obtain the involved officers' statements about where people were standing, the number of shots fired
and other facts that can be used to test the credibility of witness and officer statements later.
Based on the best recollection of the officer, the supervisor must write down the answers verbatim,
then immediately alert others of any public-safety issues and provide the card to the first arriving
homicide supervisor.
The officer is first asked the direction in which he fired the gunshots, and the direction of any shots
fired by one or more suspects.
Next, the officer is asked if anyone is hurt, the location of the injured, followed by the descriptions of
any suspects who are at large.
If a suspect is at large, the officer is asked to provide the direction of travel, the amount of time the
suspect has been gone, the type of weapons the suspect might be carrying and any other safety risks.
The officer is then asked if any evidence needs to be protected, whether there are witnesses, and
where they are.
At the conclusion of the questioning, the officer is ordered not to discuss the incident with anyone,
including supervisors, until assigned investigators arrive. The officer is given the right to discuss the
incident with a legal representative of the police union.
Sgt. Rich O'Neill, president of the Seattle Police Officers' Guild, said the protocol was negotiated with
the department to obtain immediate factual information, not the "why" behind the officer's action.
Birk, 27, who has been with the department for two years, has provided a full statement to the
department on the shooting, said Sgt. Sean Whitcomb, the department's chief spokesman.
The shooting will be reviewed by the Firearms Review Board, and is expected to be the subject of an
inquest proceeding in which a jury will decide if Birk acted properly.
After the inquest, the King County Prosecutor's Office would review the findings to determine if Birk
acted criminally.
Sorry sir, I won't have one until the end of the day. Today is the day I am transitioning over to the
Verizon BB and it is not up yet.

On September 11, 2010, at about 11:30 p.m. an intruder entered the property of Corporal Jason
Blankers (540) in Olalla, Kitsap County. Corporal Blankers was off duty and went outside the residence
where he verbally challenged the suspect. The subject responding by attacking Corporal Blankers,
striking him on the head with a steel rod. Blankers recovered, again attempted to gain verbal control,
and fired shots when the subject advanced on him a second time.
Blankers was treated and released at a Gig Harbor hospital. The attacker received medical aid from
multiple persons at the scene, but expired at Tacoma General Hospital. The investigation of the incident
has been turned over to the Kitsap County Sheriff’s office.
Although the shooting occurred while off-duty, all of the normal sources of critical-incident support are
being made available to Corporal Blankers and his family. The family is safe and doing as well as can be
expected. I wish to thank the many members of our organization who assisted in both the initial

I made some changes from the IOC drafted by HRD. My changes are highlighted in yellow. The
strikeout is language to be removed and the other highlighted language is added. I basically updated
the IOC to be congruent with the WSPTA CBA and the current Regulation Manual. If you concur with
these changes, please let me know. If you have edits or suggestions, please make them.
Also, I thank we should add “Peer Support Team” under the last paragraph on page 1 of those
individuals he may talk to prior to providing a statement to the investigators or the Employer. Do you
concur? We have already allowed him to speak to a member of the Peer Support Team and continue to
make this offer available to him. Do you see any concerns in adding this language?
Also, if you concur with the changes, CID will need to update Chapter 23, Section 03, of its division
procedures. Also, Regulation 2.00.110 (A), (7), will need to be updated to include “Peer Support
Team.”
Please let me know at your earliest opportunity if you concur with these edits, so that we can get this
IOC to Chief Lever for his approval and delivery to Corporal Blankers today.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol is requesting your assistance with the following questions related to how
other State Patrol and State Police agencies are set up. If you have a policy that gives an overview of
Division assets and command authority, that would be great too.
-------------------------------------
1. How is your state divided for command authority (Ohio has 10 Districts, each commanded by a
Captain)
2. How many Posts do you have (report in locations statewide - Ohio has 55 patrol posts commanded
by a lieutenant)
4. Do you have any sites that are shared sites (example: a facility with a post/driver exam station/scale
station combined)
7. Do you have an investigation section? What is their typical role (State property only or anywhere
called upon)?
--------------------------------------
Thank you for your assistance.

Steve,
AC Miller wants the after action brief for the executive staff to occur at their Exec. Staff meeting on Sep.
27th. I have 30 minutes reserved. My plan is to provide the CID perspective on what we can improve
and lessons learned. If you still want to do an overall briefing at a different time, I can go in on that
with you.
Otherwise, AC Miller wanted this done and he assigned me the date. Just thought I would let you
know.

Captain,
For the upcoming CID supervisors’ meeting, we should discuss the lessons learned from the Long Beach
Shooting. We included the personnel involved in the investigation, but we should share what we
learned with the rest of the supervisors, so it can be disseminated throughout the division.

This is an update for the SCC PD request being handled by the DSHS SIU.
The PD will not be completed today and the soonest it will get done and to Vicky is on Monday.
Angela has been working non stop it for the past week including 10 hours of OT. She is being
hampered by her computer freezing up for 10 plus minutes every 30 to 40 minutes. When she saves
her work her computer takes 10 to 15 minutes to save. She is also limited to being ill. and overly
sensitive to scrolling text due to her pregnancy.
She will be working up to 16 more hours of OT this weekend to complete the project. She is averaging
300 pages per day and has 400 pages left plus two recordings, and completing the redaction log.
Thank you

According to the Spokane agreement, the initial responsibilities are handled by the venue PIO. In other
words, it’s determined by where it happened: either in the city or the county. After the initial response
is over, the responsibility shifts to the PIO from the current team coordinator. That would be either
Spokane PD or the Spokane Sheriff’s office. WSP is never the lead on this.
On the west side teams, SMART or Thurston County, the involved agency takes it the first day, then a
PIO from the team takes over.

No problem. Take the 4 tens and whatever time you need Wednesday.
Jacksons team won too. 20-0 against a tough Tumwater team. Their coaches were jerks but we
overcame it all.
Lots of fun.
By the way, do you mind if I work a 4/10 schedule this week and take Friday off. This Friday is our
annual trek to Children's Hospital with Zach. I've been to every one of these since it involves a minor
invasive surgical procedure with him, and Sally does not do very well when he goes through the
process.
On a brighter note...Jared's team won 19-0 over the Blazers, and Sam's team won 25-0 Tornados this
weekend. It was a good weekend altogether for the Capital Cougars, including a win Friday night with
our HS Team...28-21 over Lakes in overtime.
With your permission, I also need to leave early on Wednesday (1600) to attend a weeknight game up
in Steilacoom. I'll come in early if that is ok. Somehow, JJ's coach was able to coordinate a Wednesday
night game against Steilacoom since this is our bye week.

AC Miller,
1. I sent you an email on 9-9-2010 detailing our involvement in all the officer involved shooting
teams around the State. The list is up to date and details what you and DC Karnitz requested.
2. I have Chuck working on the CIC review process. He sent an email on Friday to the committee
advising them that they will meet November 17th to discuss the process and how it will be improved.
3. I don’t have any new information on the on line search warrants. I will meet with the
Lieutenants to discuss
4. Initially, we were waiting for the letter to arrive before we interviewed the two attorneys, but
since you and I spoke and decided to go ahead, we will do just that. I anticipate that we will have an
answer very early this week after speaking with them. This is of course predicated on whether we can
get their names and if they will give us information.
5. I updated Dr. Don on Friday about this case. The AAG was going to speak with him and give
him the update from his perspective. In the mean time, I will be briefing our AAG so that we can draft
whatever response we need to regarding the lawsuit and how we can get WSP out of it.
I will be in the office today working on the decision paper for the staffing cuts that you requested. My
understanding is that we are anticipating cutting VIN and RATU as our portion? I will do the paper
based on the impacts of that and forward it to you for review.
Thanks,

Lets print our own. We can save a lot by buying the card stock and envelopes ourselves. I just want

The cost would be at or around $407.41 and can be personalized. That, or I can print some off on
either parchment or card stock here.. Your call… J
Thanks,

Yes, these items are printed and come with matching envelopes. I can get you an official estimate, if
you would like. We ordered 1,000 of these (with matching envelopes) back in March for someone, and
the total bill came to $407.41. However, printing prices might have increased, so an official estimate is
always best and takes 3-5 days.
I also have the artwork (see attached) for the generic blue cards. If you have access to a color printer,
can order the envelopes, and some nice cardstock-like white paper, some people are choosing to print
locally, as needed.
Let me know if you would like an estimate on having some of these printed for you. If you need the
attached to be “unique” (e.g., to add your Captain’s name), please let me know.

Here is one more twist for the OFM Exemption Request process which will be in place through the
remainder of this fiscal year (FY 2011).
For Equipment Exemption Requests, OFM created a separate form for Printing and Copying Equipment.
See the attached memo from OFM for details and the website for the form..
What that means is for normal equipment exemptions you would use the regular Equipment Exemption
Request form on the OFM website. For printing and copying equipment, you must fill out this new form
also from the OFM website.
In both cases, procedures and processes remain the same. They are ONLY required for single pieces of
equipment costing more than $5,000. The form must be routed through your Bureau Director to BFS,
preferably by electronic means.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Vicky,
This is the one I need to get out of due to the SAF being that day.
Thanks,
This email is being sent out to the 156 people currently registered to attend the October 7th class at
the Training Academy on Line of Duty Death Response being provided through the FBI National
Academy Associates/Washington Chapter. If you are a training officer who did not provide the email of
the attendee, please direct this message to those people.
Fifteen of you will get a second email requesting that you make a selection for the box lunch.
For those paying by credit card, please advise your training staff that the credit cards will not be run
until after September 24th, which is the deadline to cancel and receive a refund. A copy of the credit
card receipt will be made available at registration unless your department sent other instructions with
the registration materials.
We look forward to a productive training experience for this very important (and painful) topic and
appreciate your support. Please review the list below to ensure that we have the proper spelling of
your name and agency for the training certificates that will be issued. If you know of others in your
department who intend to attend but whose name does not appear, please let them know. We also

He is and I will keep working with him and moving that forward. I have something to review with you
if you have a minute. The decision paper questions to be specific.
In regard to the shooting teams, I was looking for operational protocols for a WSP team incorporating
lessons learned from the Johnson shooting – I believe Sgt. Wade was working on this with your folks?
Thanks again,

AC Miller,
1. I sent you an email on 9-9-2010 detailing our involvement in all the officer involved shooting
teams around the State. The list is up to date and details what you and DC Karnitz requested.
2. I have Chuck working on the CIC review process. He sent an email on Friday to the committee
advising them that they will meet November 17th to discuss the process and how it will be improved.
3. I don’t have any new information on the on line search warrants. I will meet with the
Lieutenants to discuss
4. Initially, we were waiting for the letter to arrive before we interviewed the two attorneys, but
since you and I spoke and decided to go ahead, we will do just that. I anticipate that we will have an
answer very early this week after speaking with them. This is of course predicated on whether we can
get their names and if they will give us information.
5. I updated Dr. Don on Friday about this case. The AAG was going to speak with him and give
him the update from his perspective. In the mean time, I will be briefing our AAG so that we can draft
whatever response we need to regarding the lawsuit and how we can get WSP out of it.
I will be in the office today working on the decision paper for the staffing cuts that you requested. My
understanding is that we are anticipating cutting VIN and RATU as our portion? I will do the paper
based on the impacts of that and forward it to you for review.
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks
Rob,
Thanks for checking on this. Please get a copy of the document they currently work under so we have
the latest version. I will review it and ensure it meets the criteria that we have for our participation on
these teams and then we can set up a meeting with the member agencies to discuss our involvement.
I look forward to working with them, we have good relationships with the other teams and this will be a
good one too.
Thanks again,
Captain Dahl,
Last week I met with Vancouver Police Department detective sergeant who supervises the Major Crime
Team. I asked about us joining the team pertaining to officer involved shooting. He remember working
with me during the previous request and said he would be happy to get us involved. How would you
like me to proceed? If I remember right, you said CID still has a copy of the MOU involving the Clark
County law enforcement agencies. When we are ready, I will give him a call and we can go from
there.

As requested by Deputy Chief Karnitz, the attached synopsis outlines our involvement in officer involved
shooting teams across the state. Please let me know if you need any clarification or additional
information.
Thanks,
Greg
(360) 704-2979
AC Miller,
Attached is a word document that I believe answers the questions you and DC Karnitz had. I can go
over each with you if you like, but I think this answers it.
On the agreements where we are not signed on officially, our participation is pending or we are not
members at all, I will be working with the member agencies to ensure we get involved or formally come
to agreement. My plan is to get on all these teams and meet with the agencies involved to pledge our
support while looking out for our interest.
The D-8 one is a big deal sir, it is with Grays Harbor and Pacific County Sheriff’s Departments and you
are aware of the relationship we have with them.
Please let me know if there is any additional information you would like.
Thanks,
Greg
(360) 704-2979
Greg, would you please have CID put together a complete summary of the state of the state in terms of
joint investigation teams, district by district, what teams exist, and any specifics about each (strictly
lethal force joint investigations or broadly scoped to address any major investigation) leadership roles,
etc.
Thanks
FYI Chiefs
(360) 704-2979
We have determined that when this agreement was all but shelved formally due to some language in
the agreement that our AG and the Command Staff at the time did not like, that it turned in to an
informal agreement to participate. Judging by the emails that we retrieved, there were meetings and
discussions that went to a certain point and then stopped.
It appears that we participate with the group and respond when asked. I will plan to meet with you
discuss formalizing the agreement and bring the original draft with me so we can ensure we are not
committing to something we can’t commit to.
Captain Michael Dahl
Mike, please have your Lieutenant look into the status of our participation with the teams that the Chief
is inquiring about (below) and let me know where we are at.
Thanks,
Greg
________________________________
Dave, Greg, provided we’re not boxed in with how agreements are written, these shooting teams can
well serve all agencies needs. Let’s do a follow-up with Spokane. When original talks of putting a
shooting team together came up, Retired DC Beckley and I went over to Spokane in order to personally
talk with Spokane’s sheriff and the Police chief about the concept and to let them know that we were
interested in playing. If they are still working on pulling it together, we’d still like to be a part of their
process. We should also follow-up with Clark/Skamania counties to see if they’ve had a change of heart
and are interested in letting us play. We do have plenty of examples that we can share with them
about our involvement in other multi agency shoot teams around the state that are doing just fine.
Also, as an update, some time ago Beckley and I got together with Thurston County’s sheriff and chiefs
and they agreed to let us play. Have they not been including us in the areas officer involved shooting
investigations?
Olympia WA 98504-2601
Chiefs,
Here is a copy of the CBIT agreement (Central Basin investigative Team) however, we (WSP) have
apparently never actually signed it).
Thanks,
Greg
(360) 704-2979
FYI and this includes the language for the agreement. I am checking to see if it was actually signed,
sealed and delivered. I have a call in to BFS to see if they have a copy.
Jeff Hugdahl says that the final document had not made it to BFS. This is what BFS has on file for the
CBIT agreement, I have printed a copy for you.
Thanks,
Vicky
I can call you for a more detailed response but to start, if you verified that this is WCSO and DEM
property, then his photo and admission of destroying it might interest the Sheriff.
I think you have exhausted any avenues you have so you need to give the responsibility to getting the
badges back to the owners of the badges. They may be a little annoyed that he cut them up.
Thoughts on a response?

I have to tell you, Kendra, that your baseless concern over me handing over my "IDs" have just about
ruined any good memories of my 27-year span as a support officer. I really can't imagine what your
problem is ... do you fear I might "impersonate" a support officer?
Like I said before, I planned to keep the IDs as a memento, but now you've ruined that as well. I have
just destroyed the below pictured IDs - just like you've just destroyed my respect for you.

Lt. LeBlanc,
Just an up-date on the Zillah Fatal fire investigation. This week the ATF brought in their Electrical
Engineer from the East Coast to examine the electrical debris and the appliances from the residence.
Yesterday they presented a request for X-rays of several items on interest that had been recovered from
the fire scene.
I contacted Sgt. Foster of the WSP Eastside Bomb squad and he agreed to x-ray the items. This
afternoon they x-rayed six different items that included an electrical outlet. None of the items x-ray
positively pointed to a cause or ignition source. The electrical engineer has several more pallets of
debris and appliances to still exam, which he thought he would have done by tomorrow afternoon.

Subject: RE: Why Mr. Rogers wore a sweater
Date: Thursday, September 23, 2010 3:53:00 PM
If you go to snopes you will see that none of this is true. Lee Marvin got shot in a different battle and
got a purple heart, not the Navy Cross. Bob Keeshan joined too late to ever see any combat and Mr.
Rogers was never in the military.
You Would Never Have Guessed
Captain Kangaroo passed away on January 23, 2004 at age 76 , which is odd, because he
always looked to be 76. (DOB: 6/27/27 ) His death reminded me of the following story.
Some people have been a bit offended that the actor, Lee Marvin, is buried in a grave alongside
3 and 4-star generals at Arlington National Cemetery His marker gives his name, rank (PVT) and
service (USMC). Nothing else. Here's a guy who was only a famous movie star who served his time,
why the heck does he rate burial with these guys? Well, following is the amazing answer:
I always liked Lee Marvin, but didn't know the extent of his Corps experiences.
In a time when many Hollywood stars served their country in the armed forces often in rear
echelon posts where they were carefully protected, only to be trotted out to perform for the cameras
in war bond promotions, Lee Marvin was a genuine hero. He won the Navy Cross at Iwo Jima There
is only one higher Naval award... the Medal Of Honor!
If that is a surprising comment on the true character of the man, he credits his sergeant with an
even greater show of bravery.
Dialog from "The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson": His guest was Lee Marvin... Johnny said,
"Lee, I'll bet a lot of people are unaware that you were a Marine in the initial landing at Iwo Jima
..and that during the course of that action you earned the Navy Cross and were severely wounded."
"Yeah, yeah... I got shot square in the bottom and they gave me the Cross for securing a hot
spot about halfway up Suribachi. Bad thing about getting shot up on a mountain is guys getting shot
hauling you down. But, Johnny, at Iwo , I served under the bravest man I ever knew... We both got
the Cross the same day, but what he did for his Cross made mine look cheap in comparison. That
dumb guy actually stood up on Red beach and directed his troops to move forward and get the hell
off the beach.. Bullets flying by, with mortar rounds landing everywhere and he stood there as the
main target of gunfire so that he could get his men to safety. He did this on more than one occasion
because his men's safety was more important than his own life.
That Sergeant and I have been lifelong friends. When they brought me off Suribachi we passed
the Sergeant and he lit a smoke and passed it to me, lying on my belly on the litter and said,
"Where'd they get you Lee?" "Well Bob.... if you make it home before me, tell Mom to sell the
outhouse!"
Johnny, I'm not lying, Sergeant Keeshan was the bravest man I ever knew.
The Sergeant's name is Bob Keeshan. You and the world know him as Captain Kangaroo."
On another note, there was this wimpy little man (who passed away) on PBS, gentle and
quiet. Mr. Rogers is another of those you would least suspect of being anything but what he now
portrays to our youth. But Mr. Rogers was a U.S. Navy Seal, combat-proven in Vietnam with over
twenty-five confirmed kills to his name. He wore a long-sleeved sweater on TV, to cover the many
tattoos on his forearm and biceps. He was a master in small arms and hand-to-hand combat, able to
disarm or kill in a heartbeat
After the war Mr. Rogers became an ordained Presbyterian minister and therefore a
pacifist. Vowing to never harm another human and also dedicating the rest of his life to trying to help
lead children on the right path in life... He hid away the tattoos and his past life and won our hearts
with his quiet wit and charm..
America's real heroes don't flaunt what they did; they quietly go about their day-to-day lives,
doing what they do best. They earned our respect and the freedoms that we all enjoy.
Look around and see if you can find one of those heroes in your midst.
Often, they are the ones you'd least suspect, but would most like to have on your side if
anything ever happened.
Take the time to thank anyone that has fought for our freedom. With encouragement they could
be the next Captain Kangaroo or Mr. Rogers..

Wow, this is spectacular. If he’s alive in twenty years and clean, this will be a reminder to stay away

Afternoon All-
This email comes to you as your operations were in some way effected over the last several years by
this case. This morning in US District Court for Western Washington, Devaughn “Buster” Dorsey was
sentenced to 48 years in prison. The sentence stemmed from his involvement in an extensive car theft
– VIN Switching case that spanned the I-5 corridor in the Pacific Northwest, from western Oregon to
the Canadian border. This link,
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2012986781_dorsey25m.html , gives a brief synopsis
of the case but can’t begin to explain the intricacies. It is only one of many stories to be found on new
source web sites in the greater Seattle area.
Dorsey’s sentence stems from running a car theft ring that preyed on western Washington Car
Dealerships. In this particular case, (keep in mind that Dorsey had been sentenced several years ago
for running a similar theft ring), Dorsey and his confederates took between 50 and 60 high end
domestic high performance sedans, SUV’s and luxury cars. The thefts occurred over the period of
several months, beginning shortly after Dorsey was paroled from federal prison in California, and
involved car dealerships from south Puget Sound to Bellingham. This case initially came to light in late
2007 and early 2008, through the efforts of Kent Police Detective Ty Sagiao. Sagiao recognized the
potential his case held and took what he had uncovered to Assistant United States Attorney Mike Lang.
Lang recognized the complexities the pending investigation could entail and referred Sagiao to the WSP
King County Regional Auto Theft Unit.
The cars taken by Dorsey and those under his direction were re-VIN’d using PVIN plates stolen from
Oregon and Washington State wrecking yards. The cars were then titled in Washington State using the
Washington State AVR (Abandoned Vehicle Report), and sold to associates and sometimes true victims
who believed they were getting a “steal” of a deal. Working in conjunction with the Kent Police
Department, the Washington State Patrol’s King County Regional Auto Theft Unit recovered nearly 50
stolen vehicles worth approximately $1.5 million over the course of 2008 and into early 2009. In early
May of 2008, as the pressure on Dorsey mounted and detectives were serving federal Grand Jury
subpoenas, Dorsey resorted to violence. Dorsey crept up to the windows of a witness scheduled to
provide testimony in the Grand Jury, and fired 9 shots into her basement apartment, hitting the witness
twice and her 12 year old son in the back. Thankfully, both victims survived.
While the Seattle Police Department did the crime scene work at the shooting scene, it was the WSP
effort led by Detective Donovan Daly that resulted in Dorsey’s arrest and indictment. It was the
prosecution efforts started by Lang and completed by Jill O’take and Marc Perez that resulted in his
conviction and today’s sentence. Dorsey is 36 years old so the 48 year sentence is equivalent to a “life”
sentence. As Judge Lasnik indicated in his remarks today, Dorsey’s litany of mayhem on the public
ends today.
This case stands as an example of the excellent work conducted every day by the Washington State
Patrol’s Regional Auto Theft Units. It also illustrates the tenacity and focus of the US Attorneys
responsible for handling the prosecution of a man who victimized hundreds, if not thousands, of people
in his lifetime. I would like to extend our thanks to everyone who assisted in this daunting endeavor.
Appropriate recognition will be forthcoming in the not too distant future.

I will be there today to facilitate. I didn't remember if I confirmed that with you or not.
If you want to do the preliminary stuff and get everyone introduced to each other, (using the questions)
and give them the run down on what's coming up, that will be great.
Greetings,
You have enrolled for the first two-week version of Leadership in Police Organizations. At the time of
your enrollment, your class was scheduled for three weeks of training. This has now changed and your
third week has been canceled; your first two weeks of training will cover all of the material. Your class
will start at 0800 each day and end at 1700. Classes may finish earlier, depending on the participants
preparation and understanding of the material.
You should be receiving all three of your manuals this week; if you do not, please send me an e-mail
with your work address. You will be required to read and complete the assignment at the end of each
chapter before you attend the class. Week 1 will consist of Lessons 1 through 17. Week 2 will consist
of Lessons 18 through 28. Past participants were given 10 hours of on-duty time to complete the
assignments. This gave them a total of 30 hours because there were three weeks of class. With the
consolidation of the three week course into a two week course, you will be allowed 15 hours of on-duty
time to complete your assignments.
The schedule for each day of your class is posted on the iWSP site. The path to the LPO calendar is
TSB/Training Division/Leadership/LPO Calendar. Each day’s lessons are listed. If you have questions
about the material, please contact your supervisor or one of the instructors listed below for assistance.
It is important that you come with an understanding of each lesson; be prepared to discuss the
material.
The attire for the class is conservative business casual attire. Food is allowed in the classroom; you are
encouraged to bring snacks for yourself, and to share if desired. There are currently 14 participants
enrolled in your class.
If there are any question please feel free to contact me, I look forward to your participation.
Thank You,
John

Mr. Kassel,
In cooperation with the Governor’s office, and in support of the Continuity of Government (COG),
Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 42.14, the WSP will assist pre-designated officials in the event of a
catastrophic emergency.
In the event of a catastrophe, (earthquake, flood, major civil unrest, volcanic eruption), the Governor or
the State Emergency Operations Center (EOC) will initiate the request for assistance through our
agency. We will activate the plan and contact Mr. Goldmark to provide transportation or assistance with
communication to the Governor or the EOC.
I have attached an information sheet that has the information on it that we will need so that if a
response is needed, we can locate and secure Mr. Goldmark. If you can fill in the blanks, that will
make our meeting quicker. Also, when you provide the address, any maps, directions or geographic
information that will help us get to him sooner would really help.
If there is anything I can do ahead of our meeting, please don’t hesitate to contact me personally.
Thank You for the assistance.
Captain,
Today, the D2 CIU and RATU personnel interviewed Kevin Reyes and Christopher Anderson (sic) in
reference to the Trp. Salyer crash. Reyes immediately invoked his rights not to talk. Anderson
admitted to being one of the motorcyclists. At this time, the detectives don’t want this information
disseminated, because they are going to keep working Anderson and he is fearfully of retaliation from
the other group members.
Also related to this case, Reyes did a shadow interview with KOMO 4, and stated that the motorcycle
groups did not drive like what was being alleged. Within the last couple weeks, Reyes was videoed by
one of our Smokey Air Units for reckless driving from Pierce to King County and was apprehended.
KOMO 4 has obtained a copy of that video and confronted Reyes on the discrepancies from the shadow
interview. This supposedly will air this evening. They have also spoken to Det. Medeiros and will also
mention Reyes is a suspect in the Salyer crash.
Ruth has spoken with the King County Prosecutor’s Office and will be submitting the case to them in
the morning with recommendation to file charges on Reyes and two other individuals for their
involvement in the case.

AC Miller,
This is an email that we received regarding Jas Kirk and his work on the election fraud/signature
gathering case that we did.
As you know, this case was significant for a number of reasons. During this political season, there are
several highly contested local and national election races that are viewed as critical and a large number
of ballot initiatives that are up for our citizens to vote on. All sides of all the issues are battling hard for
their respective beliefs and candidates.
This case involved a signature gatherer in King County that was allegedly committing fraud by placing
false names and invalid information on the initiative paperwork. We received the case and very quickly
determined that the fraud did occur. It was sent to the Prosecutor and the suspect was charged. This
made the news, newspapers and talk shows and is very much in the minds of the voters.
The prosecutor was very pleased with the work and the timeliness of the investigation. (Please see the
email below)
Just a great example of how our detectives serve the citizens every day and how we are able to do this
better than anyone else. I am very proud of Jas for his work and wanted to share this with you.
Mike
Steve,
Thank for the taking the time to recognize Jas. It’s always nice to get positive feedback from our
customers.
Just want to take a moment to recognize the great work that Det. Jas Kirk did in the recent
investigation concerning fraudulent petition signatures (I-1028 petition). I know that this is probably not
the normal sort of WSP investigation, but Det. Kirk jumped right in enthusiastically. I particularly
appreciated his willingness to hit the street and contact a large number of individuals personally so we
could confirm the fraudulent activity. His final report was clear and well-organized, which certainly
made my job much easier!
Both the Secretary of State and the King County Prosecutor have recognized that the early detection
and prosecution of election fraud is essential to preserving the integrity of the election process. The
assistance of the WSP, and Det. Kirk's good work on this case, are certainly appreciated in this
endeavor.

Steve

All:
One of my Deputies was in a local Starbucks with a guy who was doing open carry. Naturally, my
people are more than a bit uneasy with armed people in coffee shops !! So, he asked the guy for his
name. What he got back was the “this isn’t Nazi Germany, I’m not doing anything, you cannot ask me
for that.”. So, he called for back up and after the others arrived finally got the name of this guy and
found out he was OK to possess a firearm. But, this guy is/was an “open carry” proponent and was
recording the entire conversation between he and the Deputies (in short, a set up). Now this has hit
their blogs, they are going to do an “open carry” carry in at the Starbucks, etc. And, of course they
have an attorney who has the tape and wants to meet with his client and my Sheriff because this is
criminal official misconduct….
I understand that the open carry folks have been pushing this agenda in Clark County and may be
pushing in very soon in your community. We have received the same form letter quoting laws from
about 5 people…one in Marysville (look out Sno. County).
This group gave everything to the media who interviewed our PIO yesterday. We explained that in
particular in Pierce County it is more than a bit risky to openly carry a firearm into a coffee shop with
cops since that is exactly what Mr. Clemmons did!! We have not seen the end of this and the open
carry proponents are looking to set up the cops using recording devices and are likely recording almost
every contact over these issues. FYI.

Subject: Clothing Allowance Christopher Old
Date: Friday, October 01, 2010 2:46:00 PM
Heidi,
I am assuming you are the right person to consult on this, but if not, please direct me to who is.
Recently, Sergeant Chris Old, who was the DSHS Investigations Supervisor for CID was promoted to
Lieutenant and sent to FOB Bremerton.
His clothing allowance was due to him in mid September and we prepared the request. He received a
call from HRD and was offered a promotion shortly after that.
Since his promotion is effective today, and he is no longer assigned to a job that requires a clothing
allowance, I advised my assistant to hold off on the request. We have since received guidance from
Connie Whipple that says that we are required to pay a clothing allowance for the upcoming year,
(09/16/10- 09/15/11), even though he is going to be in FOB for the year. Minus of course the two
weeks from 09-16-2010 to today.
It does not make sense to me that we would pay a year’s worth of clothing allowance to someone that
is only going to stay in the division for 2 weeks. It seems that we would be able to forego the payment
since he won’t be buying new work clothes with it.
I have reviewed the contract and it says they get paid on their anniversary, but having been with the
WSPTA on the contract team, I am certain it was never the intent of the board to bind the employer to
paying money for clothing allowances that will arrive after their promotion to FOB.

Traditionally we have paid the clothing allowance if the anniversary date in the position occurs before
the transfer date. If the anniversary is after the transfer date, it is not paid.
On the surface it does not appear to make sense, but the trouble becomes where do we draw the line?
If someone transfers eight weeks after their anniversary date and were paid the clothing allowance, do
we then recoup 10 months of the allowance? What about if it is three months?
You make a good point in your last sentence (highlighted) but typically we have paid as I mention

WSPTA on the contract team, I am certain it was never the intent of the board to bind the employer to
paying money for clothing allowances that will arrive after their promotion to FOB.

Date: Monday, October 04, 2010 4:22:00 PM
Bob,
I will have Sgt Smith and Sgt Hullinger work out the details if that is satisfactory. I spoke with Lt
Bosman and his understanding is that the Sergeants can work out the dates and times for the vehicle
being used so I support it.
The only consideration is the security of the vehicle. When it is parked, it needs to be in a secure area
because of the cameras, etc.. I think Rick can work that part out with Randy too.
Mike
As a follow-up to recent discussions regarding the acquisition of an ALPR for use in conjunction with
Vancouver License Investigation Unit (LIU) activities, I recently had a conversation with Det. Sgt. Rick
Smith of CID Tacoma Auto Theft.
During the discussion with Sgt. Smith, it became apparent that we could form yet another partnership
with CID where the Tacoma AT unit would allow us to borrow their ALPR, which is permanently
mounted in an undercover CID vehicle, for a period of time to use for LIU enforcement and license plate
gathering activities.
Tacoma Auto Theft would also benefit (since they still maintain responsibility for auto theft
investigations in District 5) because the ALPR would experience broad usage in District 5 using
databases to search for outstanding stolen vehicles as well as LIU targets. At a minimum, it is
anticipated the ALPR would be in use during morning emphasis patrols as well as our Thursday evening
canvass of neighborhood and apartment complexes.
Sgt. Smith will provide training on the use of the ALPR and ITD will assist in the installation of back
office software on LIU computers to manage the data. All data from the ALPR back office is
automatically purged after 60 days.
It is anticipated that the Vancouver LIU would use the ALPR database in two ways. First, to locate the
vehicles currently in the CLIF database in order to conduct further investigation. Second, for volunteers
to review the license plates captured during deployment of ramp checks. The review would allow
volunteers to retrieve the foreign plate information only (NO photographs), and manually enter the
license plate, description, time and location information of the observation into CLIF prior to the 60-day
purge. The retrieved information would remain in the CLIF file for one year and purged if no further
observations are logged.

Chief,
I am happy to support our SNOCAT as a nominee. They have done a tremendous job over the past two
years and are worthy of the recognition. EJ Swainson is the leader of that team and they are a very
good group. He has that team working hard and their success is well documented.
I am wondering if these nominations were taken before the Devaughn Dorsey case was finalized,
because that would be a good one to nominate.
I will have Lt. Bosman check on it and if the nominations are still open, I would suggest having him
nominate our King County RATU. If not, then we can nominate them for next year.
I am not familiar with the other teams, but I will ask Lt. Bosman about those as well. I should be able
to get back to you tomorrow sir.

Afternoon All-
This email comes to you as your operations were in some way effected over the last several years by
this case. This morning in US District Court for Western Washington, Devaughn “Buster” Dorsey was
sentenced to 48 years in prison. The sentence stemmed from his involvement in an extensive car theft
– VIN Switching case that spanned the I-5 corridor in the Pacific Northwest, from western Oregon to
the Canadian border. This link,
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2012986781_dorsey25m.html , gives a brief synopsis
of the case but can’t begin to explain the intricacies. It is only one of many stories to be found on new
source web sites in the greater Seattle area.
Dorsey’s sentence stems from running a car theft ring that preyed on western Washington Car
Dealerships. In this particular case, (keep in mind that Dorsey had been sentenced several years ago
for running a similar theft ring), Dorsey and his confederates took between 50 and 60 high end
domestic high performance sedans, SUV’s and luxury cars. The thefts occurred over the period of
several months, beginning shortly after Dorsey was paroled from federal prison in California, and
involved car dealerships from south Puget Sound to Bellingham. This case initially came to light in late
2007 and early 2008, through the efforts of Kent Police Detective Ty Sagiao. Sagiao recognized the
potential his case held and took what he had uncovered to Assistant United States Attorney Mike Lang.
Lang recognized the complexities the pending investigation could entail and referred Sagiao to the WSP
King County Regional Auto Theft Unit.
The cars taken by Dorsey and those under his direction were re-VIN’d using PVIN plates stolen from
Oregon and Washington State wrecking yards. The cars were then titled in Washington State using the
Washington State AVR (Abandoned Vehicle Report), and sold to associates and sometimes true victims
who believed they were getting a “steal” of a deal. Working in conjunction with the Kent Police
Department, the Washington State Patrol’s King County Regional Auto Theft Unit recovered nearly 50
stolen vehicles worth approximately $1.5 million over the course of 2008 and into early 2009. In early
May of 2008, as the pressure on Dorsey mounted and detectives were serving federal Grand Jury
subpoenas, Dorsey resorted to violence. Dorsey crept up to the windows of a witness scheduled to
provide testimony in the Grand Jury, and fired 9 shots into her basement apartment, hitting the witness
twice and her 12 year old son in the back. Thankfully, both victims survived.
While the Seattle Police Department did the crime scene work at the shooting scene, it was the WSP
effort led by Detective Donovan Daly that resulted in Dorsey’s arrest and indictment. It was the
prosecution efforts started by Lang and completed by Jill O’take and Marc Perez that resulted in his
conviction and today’s sentence. Dorsey is 36 years old so the 48 year sentence is equivalent to a “life”
sentence. As Judge Lasnik indicated in his remarks today, Dorsey’s litany of mayhem on the public
ends today.
This case stands as an example of the excellent work conducted every day by the Washington State
Patrol’s Regional Auto Theft Units. It also illustrates the tenacity and focus of the US Attorneys
responsible for handling the prosecution of a man who victimized hundreds, if not thousands, of people
in his lifetime. I would like to extend our thanks to everyone who assisted in this daunting endeavor.
Appropriate recognition will be forthcoming in the not too distant future.

We handled this Chief. Just wanted to close the loop with you.
PO Box 42601
Olympia WA 98504-2601
I am happy to support our SNOCAT as a nominee. They have done a tremendous job over the past two
years and are worthy of the recognition. EJ Swainson is the leader of that team and they are a very
good group. He has that team working hard and their success is well documented.
I am wondering if these nominations were taken before the Devaughn Dorsey case was finalized,
because that would be a good one to nominate.
I will have Lt. Bosman check on it and if the nominations are still open, I would suggest having him
nominate our King County RATU. If not, then we can nominate them for next year.
I am not familiar with the other teams, but I will ask Lt. Bosman about those as well. I should be able
to get back to you tomorrow sir.
Mike

Hey Mike
I hope all is well with you down there at the top. I ran into someone today that wanted me to pass on
their regards and normally I would have ignored it, but I think you would have wanted this one pass
on. I ran into a Earl L. Jackson, father of Brad Jackson WWU in which I think you are well aquaited
with. He still comes up for the WWU basketball from Centralia. He wanted me to pass on a "hello".
Take care, hope things are good down there.
The settlement changed per an email discussion I had with Cpt Depalma.

Subject: RE: Officer involved Shooting Investigation
Date: Monday, October 18, 2010 9:08:00 AM
When I read this, it sounded like the Gambling guy was saying that they did not need to get involved
with the Criminal since they won’t be doing that. On the admin. Side, it appears that if we give them a
run down on what we do, that will be enough.
I think we could pick a day, have them come to IA and both our shops could do a presentation for
them. The CID portion could outline what typically happens when we respond or another agency
responds. We could give them information on what to expect and some background on why we do
these things. IA can take it from there and do the same thing. They could let the guys know what we
do and how.
If based on this training, they have a desire to cross train, they can work that out with IA. Let me
know.
Captain,
FYI – CID and IA will be providing some cross-training opportunities to investigators with the
Washington State Gambling Commission on how to conduct officer-involved shooting investigations.
CID will focus on the criminal side of this type of investigation and IA will then follow-up with the
administrative piece. Dan Hall’s shop will handle the CID portion. Let me know if you have any
questions or concerns. Thanks.

Chuck,
I don’t see any reason why they couldn’t come visit us and learn about our investigative process. As
you know, OPS is not the lead on officer involved shootings and in terms of the Administrative piece
OPS would treat that investigation like any other. The Slemp shooting is a good example. CID is
monitoring the criminal review/investigation while OPS awaits criminal investigation conclusion. Once
that is done then we will jump in (exactly when depends on the conclusion of the criminal review) with
the Administrative investigation. Feel free to pass along our contact information to them.

Sgt. Hall, the Washington State Gambling Commission is looking for training on how to conduct an
officer involved shooting investigation. The Gambling Commission will not be conducting the criminal
investigation but will be conducting an administrative investigation through a Lethal Force Review
Board. We have developed policy and procedures for responding to a lethal force incident but that’s as
far as we have gotten to date. Some training areas of interest would include:
Media issues
Interagency cooperation
At this time we are looking at any and all options to prepare for an officer involved shooting. Any
information you have and would be willing to share would be appreciated.
Thanks a bunch..

Hi Bill,
Thank you again for your inter-division partnership and letting my folks have a say in changes that

Thank you! These really turned out nice and user friendly. Great job to all who participated.

These forms have been uploaded to Inside WSP. They are available from:
1. The CVD Inside WSP home page under the link “CVD Forms Library.”
2. The FOB Inside WSP home page under the link “FOB Forms Directory.”
3. From the “Agency Forms” area on Inside WSP in the CVD folder (see
http://iwspsp/documents/Pages/Forms.aspx).
(There really is only one copy of each form on Inside WSP—they’re just available in multiple locations.)
When I reviewed the forms, I also tested them, which required a back-and-forth with David and me for
a few days to fix some minor things. The only notable changes I made:
· Part A: Changed “Investigation” to “Investigating” before the word “Agency” in the third row.
· Part F: Took out a lot of the lines on this form. Most of the form was in boxes and it looked a
bit too much to me.
David did a great job on this project, and I would like to thank you for your kinds words about his
work.
Now that David’s portion of this project is complete, please see me directly if you have any questions or
changes.

Mike, indeed this was a very unusual case for any detective to take on. You made another great choice
in who to turn loose on the matter. Thanks!
The outcome and professional quality of Jas' work is exemplary in every sense.
Please arrange with Suzee to find time to bring Jas in so that I can personally thank him with a chief's
coin.

AC Miller,
This is an email that we received regarding Jas Kirk and his work on the election fraud/signature
gathering case that we did.
As you know, this case was significant for a number of reasons. During this political season, there are
several highly contested local and national election races that are viewed as critical and a large number
of ballot initiatives that are up for our citizens to vote on. All sides of all the issues are battling hard for
their respective beliefs and candidates.
This case involved a signature gatherer in King County that was allegedly committing fraud by placing
false names and invalid information on the initiative paperwork. We received the case and very quickly
determined that the fraud did occur. It was sent to the Prosecutor and the suspect was charged. This
made the news, newspapers and talk shows and is very much in the minds of the voters.
The prosecutor was very pleased with the work and the timeliness of the investigation. (Please see the
email below)
Just a great example of how our detectives serve the citizens every day and how we are able to do this
better than anyone else. I am very proud of Jas for his work and wanted to share this with you.
Mike
Steve,
Thank for the taking the time to recognize Jas. It’s always nice to get positive feedback from our
customers.
Just want to take a moment to recognize the great work that Det. Jas Kirk did in the recent
investigation concerning fraudulent petition signatures (I-1028 petition). I know that this is probably not
the normal sort of WSP investigation, but Det. Kirk jumped right in enthusiastically. I particularly
appreciated his willingness to hit the street and contact a large number of individuals personally so we
could confirm the fraudulent activity. His final report was clear and well-organized, which certainly
made my job much easier!
Both the Secretary of State and the King County Prosecutor have recognized that the early detection
and prosecution of election fraud is essential to preserving the integrity of the election process. The
assistance of the WSP, and Det. Kirk's good work on this case, are certainly appreciated in this
endeavor.
Regards,
Steve

Subject: Harassing phone calls from WSP "Solicitors"
Hello
Recently I have been receiving multiple phone calls from a number listed as "800 services" on my caller
id. Yesterday I reluctantly answered as they have called as many as 7 times a day and I wanted it to
stop. They were looking for my husband, Matthew, and demanded to speak with him. They said they
were with the Troopers and wanted to know if my husband was still the owner of Secure Alliance
Protective Services. I told them they could discuss any business with me and they got very angry. I told
them that the business was closed due to the economy and they hung up. After doing research I
discovered that many people are getting these phone calls and reporting them to a site called
800notes.com. I thought you should read this information as it sounds like this company is scamming
people and using your good name to do it.

Ryan,
This article seems consistent with what we teach, although we tweak it a bit. But is there anything in
here that seems out of place as far as how the second officer should be used? I think it speaks to a
very good practice of having the second officer actually providing security for the contact officer.
Thoughts?

I read through it and it does seem to have good information. It is always a good idea to outnumber the
bad guys so get help as soon as possible even if it just for a show of force.
Also, clearly identify the roles of each person and stress the importance of the cover officer. Tell your
guys to be in charge of the scene. This is their contact, not the bad guys. Be the boss of it by
dictating what happens, at what pace and when. You don't have to be a loud mouth or a jerk, just be
in charge and let the bad guys know you are in charge.
You and I talked the other day about searches or pat downs and the need to have them secured when
this occurs. Getting them handcuffed for these is the best situation. Having one officer contact and
one cover for the handcuffing is ideal. Get them off balance, take the advantage and keep it. Dictate
the contact to them, not the other way around.
It is not always fun or exciting to be the cover officer because you don't get to play, but it is a critical
role that if done right can deter a bad guy from acting on an impulse. It can also be the difference in
who goes home that night if something does go wrong. Remember, luck favors the prepared and in our
case, if we are mentally and physically prepared to act when the situation dictates, we get to go home.

Subject: FW: 2010 WATPA Award Nominees
Date: Tuesday, October 26, 2010 10:44:00 AM
Chief Batiste,
Per your request, I had Lt. Bosman put this together for me. It appears that the SNOCAT, while it is a
solid unit and is run by our own EJ Swainson, has received the award recently.
That is not to say they are not worthy of nomination, because their work dictates that they are.
However, my nomination would go to the Yakima group because of the work they have done to reduce
auto theft in their area, even during a time when the rest of the state and the nation are experiencing
an upturn. This is also a group that our District 3 Detectives recently agreed to work with and this
partnership will benefit us all. This group has done some good work to get their problem under control.
Mike
Captain,
In reference to the award nominees, SNOCAT’s accomplishments would make them one of the front
runners, but they received a WATPA award last year for their accomplishments.
On an individual level, I would seriously consider Rick Barnard from Lakewood Police Department. Rick
is co-housed with our District 1 RATU and has always been willing to assist the WSP personnel. From
my limited interactions with Rick, he has always been energetic and proactive with addressing the auto
theft issues. I was also present when a Pierce County Deputy Prosecutor complimented Rick in a public
setting, with numerous officers present, for his investigations.
It is also hard to argue with the facts that the Yakima County Sheriff’s Office presented for their region.
Despite the rise in auto thefts throughout the State, Yakima County has seen a significant drop in auto
thefts. I know YCSO has also been proactive with addressing the auto theft issues on a multi-faceted
approach. They continue to look for new ways/ideas to address the auto theft issue and involve the
other law enforcement agencies in the region.
Thanks,
Olympia, WA 98504-2637
Please take a moment to review the attached nominee document and let me know who your selections
are to be recognized at the WATPA conference luncheon.
Thank you,
Cynthia
As discussed at the September 22 WATPA board meeting the attachment contains the nominees
selected by WATPA staff and voting instructions. Once all votes are received and the award recipients
identified I will notify you of the results.

Let’s go over this together at least to begin with so you can show me what we do and what it is all
about. Thanks
I have attached the listing of CALEA information needed from CID for 2010. If you let me know who
you assign to this project I can ensure they are granted access to the DRT SharePoint site. The site has
a full listing of CALEA standards. It also includes updated checklists to show division/district progress.
We are asking that the 2010 proofs be provided to SPP no later than December 31st.
Thank you.
Thank you all again for your hard work over the past three years to help make our 2010 CALEA On-Site
assessment one of the most successful in WSP history. The Chief will be attending a banquet in July to
accept our reaccreditation award.
We are experimenting with a different approach to the DRT training this year. Rather than having all of
you come to HQ I have created a SharePoint Team Site http://sharepoint/sites/SPP/DRT/default.aspx.
On this site you will find a PowerPoint training presentation and also your proof collection checklists for
2010/2011/2012. Please view the PowerPoint training presentation. The slides have information on due
dates for the upcoming assessment period. You will also be able to find information about where to
access your current proof collection checklists. When you have reviewed the PowerPoint please send
me an e-mail letting me know that you have completed the training and I will ensure that you receive
credit in e-Train.
Please let me know if you have any difficulty accessing the site.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the training PowerPoint, SharePoint Team Site, updated
checklists, or due dates please contact me. If you are new to the team I will contact you individually to
ensure you are able to access the site and that you don’t have any questions.
Jen
Dan,
Please keep us up to date as soon as you know something and thank you for going with him.
Chuck, let’s make sure we get the details so we can do any paperwork needed for this. Thanks
Dan just called to let everyone know that Lance Fry cut his finger pretty bad at the VIN Lane and is

Hello Commanders,
Please refer to this list and ensure that you and your managers/supervisors complete the required
training.
Thanks,
Greg
(360) 704-2979
As had been recently discussed, WAC 357-34-105 requires that all WSP supervisors and managers
complete training on a manager’s roles and responsibilities regarding sexual harassment every three
years. This WAC became effective July 1, 2008 and the WSP is 0% in compliance at this point. HRD
has developed the training plan and will use the online training vendor that was recently used to
provide sexual harassment “awareness and prevention” training for the entire agency a year or so ago.
HRD has purchased enough licenses to complete the training (500) from the HRD budget. The training
will be conducted online and the training test results and completion will be tracked by HRD.
The attached list identifies all current WSP supervisors and managers. The list is broken down by
bureau for ease of distribution.
A Daily Bulletin will go out early next week to advise employees of this training requirement for all
“supervisors and managers” and contain a link to the attached list so they can check to see if it applies
to them. The bulletin will set a training completion date of December 31, 2010 and HRD staff will
conduct follow-up to ensure that everyone required to complete the training has done so.
I anticipate that some employees will not carefully read the Daily Bulletin. My suggestion is to forward
the attached list to your district/division commanders when the bulletin comes out so they can follow-up
with their staffs and ensure that all required to complete the training do so. HRD can assist with this
process if requested.

Sir,
This is an update to the 800 line compliant we received from the OPS mail box. This is a scam that
appears every year and the blogs referenced in the complainants email start in 2008 to present. This
scam targets several L/E agencies with the WSP being one of them. The 800 number listed in the
blogs is not assigned, but it is a common number in this scam. I have placed a call to JJ Gundermann
and explained that these scams have started again this year and suggested that GMR think about
putting out some sort of press release warning the public of these scams, as well as others. I intend on
sending a response email to the complainant thanking her for notifying us about the scam.
Thanks,

Keith,
We need to get this information very soon so we can set a meeting with DC Karnitz and answer his
questions. Thanks
Yes Sir, I figured that. The money the state saves come from kicking the defrauders off of Medicaid.
I’ll put together more details with Ken and Joe’s help.
Also, I will need specific numbers related to CDIU and how their efforts save our State money.
In other words, how does what they do directly impact the States budget?
DC Karnitz requests you schedule a meeting with him and AC Miller (when you have more details) to
discuss the CDIU detective and the projected $2 million savings to the state. Thanks~

Hello Captains,
Here’s the Akela ODE Report for September, 2010. I am sending this to all of you [captains] to scan for
employees within your respective divisions. If you do have personnel on this report, an audit should be
conducted by a Lieutenant, not you (since you will be the AA if a discrepancy is discovered and a
complaint initiated). This is not to be disseminated below the Lieutenant level.
Thanks,
Greg
Good morning,

AC Miller,
Captain,
I am in Seattle for the meeting with the US attorney, but would you be available for a phone call this
afternoon or in the office tomorrow morning before I leave for the WATPA conference to discuss a
possible insubordination IRR on Ron Snowden.
Thanks,
Dennis
Since our supervisors are going to be here next week, let's have ITD come do them all at once.
How would you like to proceed with the upgrade? Or, if anyone would like to volunteer for the OTA
option here?
Vicky
Thanks,
Vicky
Good morning Vicky! Hope you are fabulous today! After conducting some research on these issues,
Verizon technical support has recommended upgrading the device software. According to RIM, this is a
known issue and upgrading the device software to the latest release apparently fixes this.
There are two ways we can upgrade these BlackBerry’s. The first would be to have them dropped off
at ITD Customer Services to upgrade them manually which takes 1-2 hours to complete. The second
option is to upgrade via over-the-air (OTA). If we chose OTA, we would like to first test this on two
devices that are in the Olympia area in case something goes wrong.
When upgrading a device OTA, several requirements must be met. During the devcie upgrade, it will
not be useable in any way until it is complete. The device must have 16 MB of RAM and at least 64 MB
of flash memory available. The battery power level must be 50% or greater for the device to retrieve
the upgrade OTA. If the battery power level is below the minimum requirement, the update process
suspends. The BlackBerry device prompts the user to recharge the battery and start the BlackBerry®
Device Software update process again. If the battery power level returns to 50%, the BlackBerry device
resumes retrieving the update package from the BlackBerry® Infrastructure. The user must be in a
service area. Once the upgrade starts, the user should not do anything to do the device until it is
complete.
We can deploy this to the device two different ways. The first prompts the user to proceed with the
upgrade. The other way is to prompt the user every 24 hours to upgrade the software then after 72
hours if the user has not accepted to begin the install, the device will automatically begin without
permission.
Please let me know how you would like to proceed. If you wish to have them manually upgraded,
please have each user submit a WO request so the technician can schedule with the customer according
to their available drop off date. If we are going to try the OTA method, please let me know of two
devices in the Olympia area that would be willing to test this feature knowing that if something does not
work properly, they may need to bring the device to Customer Services to have the issue remedied.

Mine has gone out twice and I don't believe it was at the same place. This comment was just received
just a moment ago - I just wanted to let you know I just had to re-seat my battery on my BB because I
wasn’t receiving e-mails. (Both comments are from the same person)
My office, at home too. What has happened each time is that the mobile network connection has shut
itself off. When I notice that I am not getting emails, I go in and check the mobile network connection
and it is off. When I reseat the battery and then turn that connection back on, the emails flood in.
My BB has stopped receiving e-mails at least 7 times now (once over an entire weekend). There is no
rhyme or reason to this, it just stops. Each time I have been required to remove and re-seat the
battery to get the unit back on line. The problem here is that none of us can afford to be out of touch.
A remedy to this recurring problem is extremely important and needs to happen asap. Thank you in
advance.
I don't know the exact number however I would guess it’s been 5-6 times.
It happened 3 times in the first three weeks. One time as I went over the pass on I-90. The other was
near Pacific County. The last in Kitsap County. All three times it cleared after the battery was removed. I
have been to all of those places since and has not re-occured. The bb has not had any issues since then
and is now a solid operator. Another instance one had no connection at all, and no e-mail.
Mine stopped working in late September and despite efforts such as removing the battery and holding
the on button for 30 seconds I could not restart it. I was in south Snohomish County at that time. I
sent the phone to ITD and Holly Dahl was able to get it working. It has stalled very briefly a couple of
other times but has started working again – that was within the last couple of weeks. I had no problem
sending messages out from Renton last week.
Thank you,

After a multitude of e-mails… ITD can manually do 4 a day. The thought is that all should be updated
to be on the safe side. The others can be updated using the OTA. That will be tested on two of the
BB’s that are at ITD.
I will send an e-mail to those with issues and ask who will be the first 4 to be guinea pigs. J If that is
good with you. J

MOSES LAKE — A chase reaching speeds of up to 110 mph ended with a man being Tasered and
arrested by police two miles east of Moses Lake Monday afternoon.
A deputy from the Grant County Sheriff’s Office was attempting to pull over alleged driver, James E.
Vancleve, 48, Lewiston, Idaho, for a defective exhaust on a 1991 Honda Accord, Grant County Chief
Deputy Courtney Conklin said on Tuesday.
Vancleve reportedly turned around and looked at the deputy before accelerating at a high rate of speed,
said Conklin.
Vancleve reportedly weaved in and out of traffic, ran a red light at the intersection of state Route 17
and East Broadway Avenue and continued eastbound on Wheeler Road, according to Conklin.
“The driver was swerving around traffic, passing on the right shoulder and he forced traffic to go on the
shoulder,” said Conklin. “He was driving erratically and had disregard for everyone.”
Authorities believe Vancleve was eluding police due to a prior Department of Corrections warrant for his
arrest.
Vancleve allegedly drove eastbound on I-90, exiting onto Road 1.5 Southeast, according to Conklin.
Vancleve reportedly came close to crashing several times due to his high rate of speed, before turning
northbound onto the gravel road Baseline .5 Southeast.
A state patrol car was heading northbound on the same road when Vancleve alledgedly crashed head
on into the patrol car, said Conklin.
“The crash disabled both cars. Vancleve then fled on foot and the deputy followed him into the field,”
said Conklin.
Authorities followed Vancleve for about 50 yards before Vancleve alledgedly hid behind several old cars,
forcing law enforcement to lose sight of him.
Conklin said authorities spotted Vancleve after he attempted to start a small white truck.
“The deputy opened the truck door and Tasered him in his left shoulder. It successfully subdued him
and we were able to arrest him,” said Conklin.
Vancleve was arrested for felony eluding, unlawful possession of firearm, hit and run with injury and
driving with license suspended in the third degree by the sheriff’s office.
Vancleve was taken to Samaritan Hospital to be evaluated for injuries and possible drug use, according
to Conklin. He was booked into jail afterward.
Vancleve had a passenger, Doug Paris, 28, Moses Lake, in the Honda during the chase.
Dear Michael,
Thank you for applying for membership in the Wasington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs
(WASPC).
We will be in contact with your soon to inform you of your eligibility in our organization. Please do not
send any dues money until you have been approved.
Thank you,
FYI.
This is advance notice that the WSP has been requested to host a group of Lebanese National Police
Officers December 17-21, 2010. A similar tour occurred September 2009, as part of an exchange of
law enforcement information sponsored by the U.S Department of State and World Affairs Council. Due
to a lengthy approval process the actual schedule of events will not be confirmed until November
30.
The group is anticipated to consist of ten officers, three interpreters, and three escorts. Based on the
previous visit and additional requests, the tour is anticipated to include tours and presentations at
various locations but is subject to change. Included in the event will be presentations and a tour at the
Academy, Bomb Team robot demonstration, SWAT Team vehicle display, K-9 demonstration at the
Seattle Terminal, WSF vessel ride, patrol car ride details, CID and IAD overview of services,
Communications Center tour, DOC facility tour, Aviation DART/FLIR demonstration, and crime laboratory
tour.
When the World Affairs Council approves the proposed events I will contact each division or district to
confirm schedules and availability. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Subject: RE: Sexual Harassment Training for Supervisors and Managers
Date: Monday, November 29, 2010 10:19:00 AM
Hello Commanders,
Please refer to this list and ensure that you and your managers/supervisors complete the required
training.
Thanks,
Greg
(360) 704-2979
As had been recently discussed, WAC 357-34-105 requires that all WSP supervisors and managers
complete training on a manager’s roles and responsibilities regarding sexual harassment every three
years. This WAC became effective July 1, 2008 and the WSP is 0% in compliance at this point. HRD
has developed the training plan and will use the online training vendor that was recently used to
provide sexual harassment “awareness and prevention” training for the entire agency a year or so ago.
HRD has purchased enough licenses to complete the training (500) from the HRD budget. The training
will be conducted online and the training test results and completion will be tracked by HRD.
The attached list identifies all current WSP supervisors and managers. The list is broken down by
bureau for ease of distribution.
A Daily Bulletin will go out early next week to advise employees of this training requirement for all
“supervisors and managers” and contain a link to the attached list so they can check to see if it applies
to them. The bulletin will set a training completion date of December 31, 2010 and HRD staff will
conduct follow-up to ensure that everyone required to complete the training has done so.
I anticipate that some employees will not carefully read the Daily Bulletin. My suggestion is to forward
the attached list to your district/division commanders when the bulletin comes out so they can follow-up
with their staffs and ensure that all required to complete the training do so. HRD can assist with this
process if requested.
Thanks,
jay.cabezuela@wsp.wa.gov
I know the four of us have completed it, but your supervisors need to do it too. Please ensure that
they do it very soon. Chuck and Keith, once your guys have completed it, please send an email to
Dennis. Dennis, when your guys are done, send me one email indicating that all our supervisors have
completed the training.

Sir,
Ron will be back in the office in the morning and available for a call. If you haven't guessed they hit me
up pretty hard about the Spokane position. I tried to be as cryptic as I could, but I did not get the
feeling anyone would be calling the Chief to complain or to push the issue. Ron's main concern is his
budget issues and how the government works (if you don't use it you lose it).
I told him and Joe that you had more information than I did and that you wanted to talk with Ron
directly.
I hope I didn't step out of line, but they almost broke out the rubber hoses and bright lights when I
walked through the door.
Take care,

Hi – SAF’s are only kept for 4 years. If SOD does not have their copies that far back, they should have
sent them to the State Archives. I can ask the State Archives if they have any of these.
If the State Archives has these, someone will have to go over to the Archives and make copies. These

Key for them to hear is that despite their safety concerns, no assaults or violent offenses have occurred.
At least not in their areas.
After I sent that email yesterday, I found 2004 SOD SAFs forward. You’ve piqued my interest in history,
so we’ll pour through them and have a 6 year plus chart of trespass, warrants, drugs, alcohol, alarms,
etc to share in the February 2011 SAF. We’re fortunate to have Debbie Carter, former research analyst,
in the division to help put it together as time permits. We’ll then share it with GA and other
stakeholders as well.

I just wanted to check on Tacoma since I hadn't actually been in to see them officially. It was a good
visit. I got an update on the missing guns cases and then we just chatted for a while.
Take the time you need for school. Better to get it done and then come back ready to work than do it

Boss,
Sorry I couldn't take this opportunity to join you on this road trip. I hope your trip goes well.
On another note, it looks like I will need to take Thursday off and possibly even Friday in order for me
to get caught up on my school work. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. I am barely
keeping my head above water with my assignments and also dealing with a professor who expects me
to write like him...which is near impossible for me. Please let me know if this is alright with you.
Also, I am receiving the weekly updates from each CIU and will compile the weekly report from home
and have it to Vicky by lunchtime on Friday if I don't come in.
I appreciate the time you have approved thus far for me to get caught up on my schooling, and your
consideration for a couple more days. Thank you in advance!
Chuck
I know we are not traveling much and probably won’t for a while, but please review the information
from Maki below. If we do have requests for travel, I would like all the information that he talks about
to be answered before you submit the request to me.
Division/District Commanders:
We’ve had several instances in the last couple months where an Out of State Travel reimbursement
violated the spending freeze imposed by ESSB 2921. In each case, it involved travel which was
supposedly 100 percent reimbursed by a third party (either the federal government or another agency),
but it turned out that not all the expenses were covered. This was not discovered until after the travel
was performed, when the travel voucher was submitted by the employee and the third party was billed.
The OFM guidance for ESSB 2921 requires that an Exemption request be submitted and approved for
any travel which is not FULLY FUNDED from federal or private grants. ALL costs for the travel,
including incidental expenses such as airport parking, taxi fare, etc, MUST be reimbursable, or an OFM
Exemption is required before the travel is performed.
Please insure you thoroughly review ALL anticipated expenses associated with your Out of State Travel
requests which involve third party reimbursement. If ALL of the expenses are not fully reimbursable,
then we must submit an Exemption Request to OFM and gain approval BEFORE the travel is performed.
Resp,
Bob

Afternoon All-
This email comes to you as your operations were in some way effected over the last several years by
this case. This morning in US District Court for Western Washington, Devaughn “Buster” Dorsey was
sentenced to 48 years in prison. The sentence stemmed from his involvement in an extensive car theft
– VIN Switching case that spanned the I-5 corridor in the Pacific Northwest, from western Oregon to
the Canadian border. This link,
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2012986781_dorsey25m.html , gives a brief synopsis
of the case but can’t begin to explain the intricacies. It is only one of many stories to be found on new
source web sites in the greater Seattle area.
Dorsey’s sentence stems from running a car theft ring that preyed on western Washington Car
Dealerships. In this particular case, (keep in mind that Dorsey had been sentenced several years ago
for running a similar theft ring), Dorsey and his confederates took between 50 and 60 high end
domestic high performance sedans, SUV’s and luxury cars. The thefts occurred over the period of
several months, beginning shortly after Dorsey was paroled from federal prison in California, and
involved car dealerships from south Puget Sound to Bellingham. This case initially came to light in late
2007 and early 2008, through the efforts of Kent Police Detective Ty Sagiao. Sagiao recognized the
potential his case held and took what he had uncovered to Assistant United States Attorney Mike Lang.
Lang recognized the complexities the pending investigation could entail and referred Sagiao to the WSP
King County Regional Auto Theft Unit.
The cars taken by Dorsey and those under his direction were re-VIN’d using PVIN plates stolen from
Oregon and Washington State wrecking yards. The cars were then titled in Washington State using the
Washington State AVR (Abandoned Vehicle Report), and sold to associates and sometimes true victims
who believed they were getting a “steal” of a deal. Working in conjunction with the Kent Police
Department, the Washington State Patrol’s King County Regional Auto Theft Unit recovered nearly 50
stolen vehicles worth approximately $1.5 million over the course of 2008 and into early 2009. In early
May of 2008, as the pressure on Dorsey mounted and detectives were serving federal Grand Jury
subpoenas, Dorsey resorted to violence. Dorsey crept up to the windows of a witness scheduled to
provide testimony in the Grand Jury, and fired 9 shots into her basement apartment, hitting the witness
twice and her 12 year old son in the back. Thankfully, both victims survived.
While the Seattle Police Department did the crime scene work at the shooting scene, it was the WSP
effort led by Detective Donovan Daly that resulted in Dorsey’s arrest and indictment. It was the
prosecution efforts started by Lang and completed by Jill O’take and Marc Perez that resulted in his
conviction and today’s sentence. Dorsey is 36 years old so the 48 year sentence is equivalent to a “life”
sentence. As Judge Lasnik indicated in his remarks today, Dorsey’s litany of mayhem on the public
ends today.
This case stands as an example of the excellent work conducted every day by the Washington State
Patrol’s Regional Auto Theft Units. It also illustrates the tenacity and focus of the US Attorneys
responsible for handling the prosecution of a man who victimized hundreds, if not thousands, of people
in his lifetime. I would like to extend our thanks to everyone who assisted in this daunting endeavor.
Appropriate recognition will be forthcoming in the not too distant future.

I always meant to get copies of a few of the really well written Admin Insights in case I needed them,
but never got around to it.
Can you send me copies of some of the good ones that we all marveled at? (Anything by Karnitz or
Ursino). Karnitz did the one on Hubre that I remember being really good.
If you can remember some of the others, I will take those too. I anticipate having to write a few soon
so I want to have some good examples to follow.

It is surprising at how few Admin Insights we actually have (mostly crime lab), the majority of cases

It is not my goal to stress you out or apply unnecessary pressure on you to complete this. I think as
long as we have the SAF ready for review by all of us and we can meet to discuss it prior to it being
finalized, that will be fine. I would like to ensure that we do not have slides that are blank so giving the
Lieutenants time to add the significant accomplishments and AOI slide is important.
That said, if we can have it a week out form the due date, that will be plenty of time. Even if the

This SAF was an anomaly - with the short turnaround time, holidays, and command staff schedule, it
was bound to happen.
That said, the earliest I can have SAF done depends on the following:
1. the degree to which you first want to see SAF (100%, 75%)
2. obtaining all the data
Using our next SAF as an example, November and December SAF will be January 2011. The turn in
date for that SAF is January 24th. The first business week of January is January 3 through 7.
Throughout that first week, the following needs to, and usually does, occur:
1. Julie P. needs to release CITE that week (CIU, ITU, GI)
2. VIN lanes send me their data (they always send it to me within three days of the start of the
month)
3. Jerry sends me MAIT data (he always has it to me either first or second day of the month)
4. CDIU, not sure anymore due to the situation, but before, Orey would have it to me within the
first week of the month.
5. Angela gives me DSHS stats, but I can get those numbers myself if need be.
6. Auto Theft sends me their data
7. Keith said he will do the POPS slide
8. AOI and Sig Acc, are to be determined by CID command
If the above schedule holds, I could have SAF 99% ready on Friday, January 7, so it can be reviewed
starting Monday, January 10 until it's due date of the 24th. The reason it won't be 100% ready is due
to BFS being unable to run the budget reports until the 15/16 of each month, which is a weekend. So,
the next month SAF won't be 100% complete until January 18th, since the 17th is a holiday.

trained personnel. Based on your feedback an advertisement of these classes will go out in January
2011.
Attached is a CTS master list which includes under tab one, a list by district of reconstructionists,
certified techs, and provisional techs. Tab two includes inactive techs. Tab three includes certification
dates which is traditionally provided to BFS for stipend payments. Tab four is outside agency personnel.
· Please review the attached list to ensure personnel within your command are eligible for the CTS
Stipend in 2011.
· Please respond with an assessment of your district or division program and if you need to
replace, reduce, or increase the number of positions.
Recertification will occur in 2011 for those that need testing. The recertification process encompasses
submission of a time/distance analysis and scale drawing as well as achievement of 80% on the written
examination to be proctored during first trimester CTS training.

Perfect, thanks
Boss,
This list has already been reviewed and certified by the CIC.
In reading Lt. Gunkel's email, it appears he is just notifying all districts to review and determine if any
replacements or additions will be necessary in preparation for the upcoming TECH and RECON classes in
2011. The information they are requesting needs to come from the field.
Chuck
When you can, would you please check this list and get the information to the Academy that they are
requesting?
Thanks

I do not see any of our people on the short list below, and I am not aware of anyone that is
teleworking or telecommuting. At least none that I have approved since May.
Please let me know if anyone is doing this. Also, if there are requests for it, let’s make sure we follow
the policy. Thanks
Commanders,
I need a list of all of your employees that have formal (or informal) telework agreements. This list
below are the only employees that HRD is aware of and I need to know if there are any more.
Consistent with the Deputy Chief’s direction (below) I will be reviewing the current agreements listed
below. Any others are not valid until the following occurs.
“Only formal, documented and approved in accordance to our written policy and any related CBAs are
valid; all others are not unless they too are fully vetted and approved at the Bureau level and clearly
meet the stipulations in the policy”.

All of the interviews have been completed. I am re-contacting the victim and witnesses on Wednesday
(12-15-2010) at the Curlew School and asking them to look at the weapon montage. One of the guns
in the montage is the air soft gun Haddenham submitted to his attorney, who subsequently forwarded it
to me. I also have a meeting with the Ferry County Prosecutor in Republic at 12PM on Wednesday to
brief him on the case. I anticipate forwarding the prosecutor the finished report as soon as it is
approved by Sgt. Adkinson, hopefully by the end of the week.
