Does anyone believe that Spokane County Prosecutor Larry Haskell would tell Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich that there was “no way I’m going to file anything on him because it will look like retaliation”, referring to Ron Wright and a Recall effort?

As for me, I would find that pretty darn hard to believe but Ozzie made that exact statement in a WSP Criminal Investigation during his formal recorded statement to the WSP during the WSP Investigation of Knezovich assaulting former Undersheriff Dave Wiyrick.

Here is Ozzie’s full statement obtained via PRR:

Pretty understandable why some government officials don’t like Investigative Reporters using the Public Records Act in truth seeking…don’t you think?

 

I REPORT YOU DECIDE!!!
