After watching the above video of Bob West, trying to come to the aid of his daughter, City of Spokane Valley Council Member Brandi Peetz, at the June 3^rd, 2018 Valley Council Meeting one of the first things that came to my mind, as a way of explanation for his behavior regarding his daughters run for office which actually cost him his job with the City of Spokane was something you often see in Sports.

But thinking about it Politics is a bit of Sport, so it only makes sense. What really doesn’t make sense is West’s public use of the terms “Blindsiding” and “Transparency” when you consider the lengthy investigation the City of Spokane did regarding his lack of transparency and of course electioneering for his daughter on the taxpayer’s time.

Glass houses, stones? The height of hypocrisy? Or just plain; “LIVING VICARIOUSLY THROUGH YOUR CHILDREN”?

Will Bob West run for office on his own next time?

So I thought it would be a good idea to update you on previous stories:

Ozzie for some reason doesn’t want folks to know about the several different email addresses he uses to conduct County business in secret. Ozzie’s problem is that because I have excellent sources I know about them so providing a Nissen Affidavit is problematic for him, and of course he would like to know exactly which private email addresses I have. Ozzie has even gone to the extent of trying to convince the Spokane County Prosecutors Office I’m “delusional”, the problem is the record is clear I’m not, at least when it comes to this issue! 😊

The fact is that if Ozzie were to provide a Nissen Affidavit to me under oath and I have evidence that he has conducted County business from his private email addresses and fails to report them or provide responsive documents from those email addresses he could be in the same situation Hillary Clinton is in.

Having said all that, and with respect to my Public Records Request concerning Ozzie’s allegation against Mr. John Christina, here is here we stand as of today.

 

It isn’t like providing a Nissen Affidavit was a big deal to Mike Volz, John Christina, and the County Commissioners, they didn’t have a problem with it, so the question is “WHY DOES OZZIE HAVE A PROBLEM DOING IT?”.

If you are wondering what Ms. Kinnick did provide me in response to my PRR it was two pages of one of the ways some folks like to communicate privately using Facebook PM, which is nice, but I just want the Nissen Affidavit the law requires.

 

It is all about this isn’t it?

 

I REPORT YOU DECIDE!!!

Aside from this my mail was loaded with over 200 pages of PRR responses today which will take some time to analyze.

 

To answer a question some folks had regarding the Fossum Report, “I will but it is too early at this point, and there is a method to my madness, or delusion as Ozzie describes it.”

I gotta ask my CEO for a raise, this is getting ridicules! 😊

I REPORT YOU DECIDE!!!   

The answer is simple…government doesn’t want you to know… and what you don’t know won’t hurt them. The truth is they often times, even via surrogates some government officials will go to almost any lengths to hide things.

As a way of demonstrating exactly what I am writing about and given the current Media attention to issues involving how women are treated I want my readers to be aware of this case.

Washington State Law allows for IA Case C17-048 to be released to the public in its entirety including the name of the Officer involved and all of the facts surrounding the case because the allegation was “Sustained”. The problem is unless someone tips the Media regarding the circumstances surrounding the complaint the public will never know if there are problems with SPD’s handling of Rape Investigations, nor in all likelihood will the City Council and their Public Safety Committee know, unless some Investigative Journalist gets involved in investigating it and makes it public.

To be perfectly clear SPD, as well as the Spokane County Sheriffs Office are under no legal obligation to post anything online for the Public to see, and the only reason SPD started posting IA cases on there website was because of the Use of Force Commission and the COPS/DOJ Review both of which called for more transparency.

Previously SPD posted IA Cases in their entirety on their website for all to read, they quit doing that when there was considerable embarrassment to the Department (I have written several stories regarding this). As it stands now SPD is only posting a “Closed Case Summary” on their website which tells the Public and Reporters, absolutely nothing and requires that Reporters or the Public go to great lengths to get the facts, something many reporters aren’t willing to do.

Needless to say, my Weird IA Case File is full of interesting and sometimes funny IA Cases.

People that know me well know some of the lengths I’ve gone to in the interest of Crime Victims, and in several cases the BS I had to put up with in protecting their interests. You can probably imagine how some SPD Cops reacted when this report I was tasked with doing was made public, there were three similar internal reports I made after this one that were also very critical of the way SPD handled Rape Investigations and documented the fact that nothing much had changed since “The Coe Report”, those lengthy and critical reports were never made public, but that didn’t mean they didn’t result in some heat.

I am very hopeful that things have changed however based on some recent information I have received things might not have changed so I feel obligated to take a serious look at this IA Case whether SPD likes it or not. This is not the only recent IA Case that has come to my attention that has caused me concern.
