Voyeurism: Man charged

BY RAECHEL DAWSON rdawson@fedwaymirror.com

A convicted sex offender was charged on March 13 for taking photos of women in a restaurant bathroom on March 6.

Jason Douglas Halter, 23, of Auburn is being held on $100,000 bail because his likelihood to reoffend is high based on prior convictions, court documents state.

At 9 p.m. on March 6 at the Old Country Buffet in Federal Way, police responded to reports that a male was taking pictures of women in the women’s bathroom. The restaurant manager told police a customer came out of the women’s restroom and said there was a male in the restroom taking photos of her as she used the facility.

According to court documents, the manager quickly entered the women’s bathroom and knocked on the stall doors, demanding the man exit.

As she did this, she saw a man pass a cell phone into the stall next to him.

Court documents state it was later learned a woman was in that stall.

Prosecutors allege there’s probable cause to believe the women was in on the crime.

The female suspect left the bathroom quickly and the manager detained Halter and told him the police had been called and to wait for them.

However, he told the [ more VOYEUR page 23 ]

Council temporarily bans medical marijuana businesses

T

he Federal Way City Council unanimously voted to impose a year-long moratorium on medical marijuana businesses, collective gardens and dispensaries

at a council meeting on Tuesday.

At the same meeting, they voted 5-2 against an ordinance that would have amended city zoning code to allow the sale, processing and production of recreational marijuana in two types of city zones, community business and commercial

enterprise zones.

All recreational marijuanarelated businesses are temporarily banned in Federal Way until May 5, when the moratorium is lifted.

The medical-marijuana business moratorium allows city staff to form a work group and fully study

medical marijuana in Washington state before the council will vote.

But because the council didn’t vote on the recreational marijuana ordinance, staff was directed to bring forward options to completely ban recreational marijuana [ more BANS page 2 ]

two others that are a variation of both — a route that starts on Pacific Highway and crosses land south of Kent-Des Moines Road and continues along Interstate 5, and a route that begins on Interstate 5 and crosses over to State Route 99 just before South 252nd Street.

Nearly all routes are projected to have between 25,500 and 27,500 riders

and all are estimated to take 13-14 minutes in travel time.

But each route alternative comes with its own impacts.

“Cost is just one of the items, the economic development is another one, the displacement, those are big criteria,” Martin said.

“In terms of the Chamber, when you think about tran-

sit, you think about moving people for the purpose of commerce.”

Without considering routes with extra stations, the most displaced businesses, 104, occur in the State Route 99 path. But in that $1.77 billion plan, 36 residential units are impacted. Alternatively, the Interstate 5 route impacts [ more TRANSIT page 3]

Students participate in Burkemobile program FROM STAFF REPORTS

Seventh grade students in David Chernicoff ’s earth science classes participated in an immersive, science-based learning experience offered by the Burke Museum through its Burkemobile traveling program.

Students conducted hands-on investigations to identify different rocks and minerals, and examined a collection of specimens illustrating the incredible geologic diversity of Washington. A Burke Box, with more geologic treasures, is on loan to the class for two weeks providing “something for everyone,” according to Chernicoff.

Students Christian and Corionna, working as a team, successfully identified five rocks and minerals using several inquiry methods including

“It’s very cool to have a hands-on experience like this – I hope we can do this again,” said Christian.

While a geology career isn’t likely in his future, Christian does see rock collecting as more of a hobby. He says the Burkemobile experience is one more kids should have, and Corionna agrees. “I never thought rocks would be so interesting,” she reflected.

Burke educator Maureen Carlisle led the standardsbased investigation with Chernicoff and his father, retired UW geology Professor Stan Chernicoff, who volunteered to contribute his expertise to the class. Principal Springy Yamasaki stopped by to see the father-and-son rock hounds at work. “This is a great opportunity for our students to see where their teacher gets his passion for learning and exploration,” she noted. This opportunity was made possible by generous donations by

stores, processing and producing facilities or to extend another moratorium at the April 7 council meeting.

While some council members, such as Martin Moore and Bob Celski, wanted the issue to be resolved as soon as possible, others such as Councilwomen Susan Honda, Dini Duclos and Deputy Mayor Jeanne Burbidge expressed the need for more time to study the issue and to observe whether the state Legislature would allow cities to someday get a piece of the marijuana-revenue pie.

As of right now, House Bill 2136 calls for marijuana tax revenues to local jurisdictions at an annual cap of $20 million until 2022.

However, city officials pointed out that the bill may not make it through this Legislative session, which ends April 26, and it could come up in subsequent special sessions.

“I believe, because the voters of the state voted for this, we need to listen to our voters,” Honda said, adding that, if the ordinance was passed, she would expect a police crackdown on apprehending violators and felons who sell marijuana illegally.

Honda and Duclos were the two council members to vote for the ordinance, despite having major concerns about the potential impact.

The Federal Way Council voted to temporarily ban medical marijuana businesses on Tuesday. Courtesy of Sensible Washington forward with a ban,” Celski said, noting his concerns with public safety and health.

The council has already enacted two moratoriums, one year-long and the current six-month long temporary ban.

Councilwoman Kelly Maloney said she was concerned that allowing marijuana-related businesses in Federal Way would send the message to children that since adults have condoned it that kids would gain the perspective that using marijuana is “more OK than what it is” in terms of health and safety.

Moore, a previous proponent of allowing marijuanarelated businesses in Federal Way, changed tunes at the meeting, stating he’s “on a mission to create a positive image for Federal Way” and that he didn’t want “to be driving down and seeing pot stores” or stand near a “pot shop” and smell it.

Currently, the Washington Liquor Control Board, the organization that enforces the business rules and regulations, has a law in place that disallows marijuana aroma from stores or facilities and has restrictions for advertising.

The council enacted the current moratorium on Oct. 21, 2014, which took effect on Nov. 24. This was the second moratorium after the council enacted a year-long

ban on the businesses on Nov. 5, 2013.

The Planning Commission had recommended the council ban marijuana-related businesses on Sept. 17, 2014 and the Land Use and Transportation Committee voted to forward marijuana business moratorium to the council. But when it was time for the council to vote in October, the majority agreed there wasn’t enough information for council members to make a decision and the moratorium was extended.

If the council doesn’t decide to enact a ban or moratorium at the next council meeting, the moratorium will expire on May 5 and all zones will be available for marijuana retail, processing and producing businesses as long as they follow the Washington State Liquor Control Board’s 1,000-foot buffer between schools, playgrounds, recreation centers, child care, parks, public transit centers, libraries and game arcades.

Currently, Federal Way has 15 marijuana retail applicants, however, per state law, only five are allowed here. Four business owners have applied for marijuanaproducing licenses and three of those four have also applied for processing licenses.

There is no limit to how many marijuana processing or producing facilities a city can have.

285 residential units and only 29 businesses in a plan costing $1.42 billion.

Every other route alternative has its own impact on residential units, businesses, commercial land and even views along freeways.

Depending on the plan, added stations can increase the price of a route alternative and displace more businesses but some might also have positive impacts in terms of “transit-oriented development” potential.

Plans with higher business impact also tend to have more land for potential transit-oriented development, according to a Sound Transit draft summary.

Land with transit-oriented development is an area that incorporates residential and commercial elements to maximize access to public transportation.

Because routes along Interstate 5 don’t intersect cities and communities in quite the same way as the State Route 99 plan does, they don’t have the same potential for transitoriented development. But if Sound Transit was to combine that alignment with some of the station options then the transitoriented development potential could be positively

impacted, Ridge said.

Sound Transit measures this in acres with the State Route 99 alternative generating 123 acres of potential transit-oriented development and the Interstate 5 option generating 83 acres. “[There’s] so many different scenarios and each of those scenarios is going to have its own pro and con to it and people are going to be personally impacted and professionally impacted, so there’s a lot of balancing that has to go on between value and benefit,” Martin said.

All routes end in Federal Way but exactly where in Federal Way is also up for debate.

Ridge outlined four possibilities of where a Federal Way station could be located.

A station could go just northeast of the Federal Way Transit Center or directly south of the transit center, both elevated.

There’s the option of putting a station in a trench in between Interstate 5, 23rd Avenue South, Truman High School and South 320th Street. And a potential for a station to go in a trench just west of Interstate 5 near the Federal Way 320th Park and Ride.

But Martin said it’s important to look at the entire route from a

Hantavirus risks higher this time of year FROM STAFF REPORTS

If your spring or summer cleaning uncovers signs that mice or other rodents have been in the area, be sure to take precautions to avoid catching a rodent-carried disease like hantavirus, warns the Department of Health. Diseases spread by rodents are fairly rare in Washington, but they can be serious, even deadly.

Cases of hantavirus illness and other rodent-carried diseases happen year round.

However, spring and summer weather brings an added risk as people clean cabins, campers, garages, barns, and other places

regional scope because the “needs of many outweigh the needs of the one.”

Although there will be ample time for public comment when Sound Transit publishes the draft, Martin said it’s important to have as much information as possible to form an educated opinion.

“I think it’s really easy when you see something like this to have an emotional response but our commitment is to make sure that we have as much information as possible to have an informed opinion and I think it’s our responsibility as a Chamber of Commerce to make sure we evaluate that with a strategic eye for long-term economic growth,” she said.

Asking questions, such as “who and what does Federal Way want to be,” and “are we a job creating community” or “are we a bedroom community” is critical, Martin said.

“It’s very important as a community that we start to think about who we want to be,” she said. “What is Federal Way? In that global economy, what is Federal Way? And that will help drive some decisions we make.”

After a 45 day public comment period, Ridge said the Sound Tran-

Sound Transit officials created a draft for the Federal Way Link Extension project, even though they only have funds for infrastructure from SeaTac to the Kent/Des Moines area. Contributed photo sit board will identify a preferred route alternative, which will likely be around mid-2015. From there, they hope to publish a final Environmental Impact Statement in mid-2016 with project selection and a record of decision in late 2016.

The final design will be chosen in 2017 and construction on the Angle Lake station to Kent/Des Moines route will begin in 2019 with projected completion in 2023.

Ridge said as soon as the Draft Environmental

Impact Statement is published, there will be public hearings in early May at Highline College and the Federal Way Community Center.

Residents within a halfmile of the project corridor will also receive mailers that will give direction on how to get information through the website.

And eventually, the project’s website will offer three elements for the public to fully understand each option for the project. Ridge said there will be a video simulation that provides

aerial views and narration for each project option, an interactive experience where a person will have the opportunity to “build their own route,” add stations and see the cost and impact of that route, and a link to a comment form, which will go on the record and be considered by the Sound Transit board before they identify a preferred route.

potentially infested by rodents. Cleaning, sweeping, or vacuuming dried droppings, urine, or nesting materials can stir up contaminated dust that can cause infection when inhaled. If cleaning in a rodent-infested area, always thoroughly wet contaminated areas including trapped mice, droppings, or nests with a bleach solution or disinfectant, and soak for 10 minutes before cleaning. Always wash your hands after touching anything contaminated by rodents.

There are usually less than five cases of hantavirus in the state each year. The disease begins with flu-like symptoms, such as fever, headache, fatigue, and muscle aches.

It can worsen and cause difficulty breathing as the lungs fill with fluid. About one in four cases results in death.

Martial science teacher motivated after mother’s murder

BY TERRENCE HILL thill@fedwaymirror.com

F

ifteen years of martial arts experience were not nearly enough to prepare Christopher Frazier for the tragedy in his family nine years ago. The murder of his mother by his own nephew made headlines across Seattle and forced him to isolate himself from the world while he grieved.

His mother was the caretaker for her then 13-yearold special needs grandson.

After an argument between Frazier’s mother and nephew in March 2006, the teen stabbed her to death.

Police would later find drawings and notes that alluded to the teen’s plan to kill her before the incident took place. While the teen was initially charged with the murder, he was eventually found to be mentally incompetent and did not stand trial.

“I spent a lot of time with him until he was about 10 or 11 years old,” Frazier said. “He went everywhere with me. Even though he was my nephew, he was more like my little brother.”

The situation now motivates Frazier.

He was not around his nephew as much while he attended college and believes that things may have turned out differently if he was there.

He spent time coaching at his former high school, Rainier Beach, to take his mind off the tragedy. He began to notice that he could have an impact on kids through that time coaching.

Reaching youth has now become his main priority.

“I don’t like to say that I’m making up for it in that way, but it comes up,” Frazier said.

Just a month ago, Frazier opened the Keishindo Martial Science Academy in Federal Way. He has over 20 years of experience in various martial art forms and is looking for that to be a gateway to interaction between everyone in the community.

Frazier began martial arts at the age of nine. He was taught goju-ryu by the uncle of one of his friends in a basement while living near Beacon Hill.

www.federalwaymirror.com [ MARTIAL from page 4] While in college he took a jujitsu class and began to expand to numerous martial arts styles instead of focusing on one.

Now at age 33, Frazier is ready to teach what he learned.

“From a young age I was taught to take whatever you can,” Frazier said. “I always remember my mom telling me that whatever you put your hands on, always do your personal best.”

Martial science is not exactly the same as martial arts. While martial arts focuses on the artistic outcomes of actions, martial science is focused on the practical movements of martial arts.

“It’s really studying the physiology of the body and adapting that to martial arts,” Frazier said. “The moves of martial arts do apply, but if you’re not doing it in a practical sense, then the movements are kind of wasted. So we break it down to a science rather than an art.”

Keishindo Martial Science Academy offers classes for three different age groups: 5-9-year-olds in the kids group, 10-14-yearolds in the youth group and ages 15-plus for teens and adults. Jukido jujitsu, a style focused on grappling and close-range self-defense, is taught to anyone ages 9 and above on Saturdays.

Anyone who is willing to learn is able to go to the academy for training. Currently, the youngest student is 4 and the oldest is 55.

There is no specific type of person that Frazier is looking for at the academy.

He says he will teach anyone, even if they have one leg missing or are blind. He says that martial science is about using what you have to your best ability, which can allow for this, unlike some martial arts.

“We train hard, but we are a very family-oriented school,” he said. “We are a mixed martial arts school, but not a cage fighting school. We still do character development and we make sure we’re always taking care of each other.”

Frazier believes that people, particularly the youth, spend too much time at home and in front of their phones and not enough time interacting with each other. He believes that his academy can provide a place for them to go.

He is also open to do more than just martial arts-related activities to get kids involved. Using the academy for dance classes

is high on his list.

“I’m even having ideas of a video game tournament here with something like ‘Street Fighter,’” Frazier said. “Anything to get the kids involved and out of the house and doing stuff with other kids. They’re kids; they should be kids and have fun.”

Keishindo Martial Science Academy is located at 29500 Pacific Highway S., Suite D, Federal Way. For more information, visit kmsacademy.com.

Time for a gut check?

Some people feel uncomfortable having a colorectal cancer screening. We’re uncomfortable with you not having one.

Colon cancer often grows slowly, but the good news is that treatment can be successful if detected early. Doctors agree that both men and women need a colonoscopy upon turning 50 years of age. African-Americans should begin screening at the age of 45.

Talk to your health care provider about screening or schedule a screening today. Don’t be embarrassed—this may save your life.

Beamer Titans open baseball season with strong performance

BY TERRENCE HILL thill@fedwaymirror.com

T

he Todd Beamer Titans ended last year’s baseball season with an appearance in the state playoffs. Last Friday, they started the 2015 season right where they left off with a 14-4 win over the Auburn Trojans in a non-league game.

Beamer’s bats got hot in the second and third innings.

After having none of the three batters reach base in the first inning, the Titans managed 13 hits and 14 runs the next two innings.

Auburn began the fifth inning trailing 14-1. They made an effort to keep the game going as they managed three runs, but they were unable to avoid the 10-run mercy rule with a fourth run in the inning.

Beamer pitcher Taylor Davis picked up the win.

bet over $40 million on those projects and on that strategy. To put it mildly, that is a lot of money. Is it the right strategy and the right priority for our city and is that the best use of city staff time? And what do we really want our downtown to look like in the future?

But most importantly, are we targeting the right groups for our future growth and future neighbors?

Shouldn’t we be targeting the generation of millennials? The performing arts center is for an older group. A college might work, but how many years will that take, since about a dozen colleges are already within 30-40 min[ more ROEGNER, page 11 ]

The city appears to be looking for the “big score” or “home run” in their approach to economic development. And the new economic development director may have been hired, at least in part, because of his involvement with big projects like the Super Bowl in California.

Saddened to see suicides in blotter I was saddened to see two deaths attributed to suicide in the police blotter section of the last issue of the Mirror.

Suicide is a devastating way to lose a loved one, it leaves so many questions unanswered. After losing my brother John to suicide on March 19, 15 years ago, I got involved with Auburn Survivors of Suicide, a local support group for those of us who have lost a loved one to suicide. No one should attempt to heal from a loss such as this alone.

In the U.S. in 2013, over 41,000 people died by suicide. Washington state

is 24th on the list with over 1,000 suicide deaths. Data for 2014 is not yet available.

Mental illness is often at the root of suicide, mental illness that goes untreated and undiagnosed. Often, too, the person is simply seeking an end to their pain. If you know someone who is suicidal please talk to them, listen to them. If you have lost someone to suicide, you don’t have to be alone. We treat so many medical maladies — we need to also treat the mental and emotional pain that so many suffer from.

For more information about Auburn Survivors of Suicide, go to www.auburnsos.com.

If you are in crisis, call 1-800-273-TALK (8255), the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline.

Kochmar isn’t standing with constituents I, like so many working

people, watched with great interest as our state House recently passed bills to enact a raise in the minimum wage and paid sick days for employees to care for themselves or their family without the threat of losing a day’s wages or their job.

Cities and states across the country have done similar because working people support these commonsense first steps to rebuilding an economy that works for everyone, not just the wealthy few — even voters in conservative states like Arkansas and Nebraska.

One of our 30th District representatives, Carol Gregory, voted for these bills. Our other representative, Linda Kochmar, voted against the bills. I found it very curious, however, that she initially voted “yes” on the minimum wage measure then after a few seconds changed her vote to “no.” Was she initially planning to vote the way her constituents would want but then changed her mind, or was she told by her fellow Republicans caucus mem-

bers to change her vote?

Regardless of the reason, now we know Rep. Kochmar isn’t standing with her working constituents on these issues.

Unanswered questions over algae bloom A public meeting was held on Feb. 25 to discuss plans for treating Twin Lakes’ Lake Lorene. Included in this meeting were the Department of Ecology and the city of Federal Way. The issue with this manmade lake is algae bloom, something that is apparently caused by an excess amount of nutrients, particularly phosphates, which is a substance found in fertilizer.

Last year, the Twin Lakes Homeowner’s Association spent $40,000 to treat Lake Lorene with the understanding from the vendor that this expensive action would resolve the algae bloom for three to five years. It lasted three months.

During the recent meeting, I asked the vendor who has been hired by the Twin Lakes Homeowner’s Association how much was the proposed treatment and his services costing homeowners. A Homeowner’s Association official interrupted the vendor with a direction not to answer my question.

If this isn’t a pertinent question for discussing a plan of action, then what is?

What is the official afraid of?

This Homeowner’s Association leader has a fiduciary obligation to all the homeowners of Twin Lakes, not just those who live on one of the two lakes as he does, and we have a right to know how our funds are being used.

What say you?

a police report. I understand you have a right for public disclosure with police reports and you were simply telling the news, but did you ever stop to think about the type of information you were giving out to the public?

I’m specifically referring to the fact you put the woman’s address in your article. So you told every criminal out there that a woman in her late 60s is now living alone in her house.

Did you ever once stop to think about the irresponsible journalism in this? I implore you in the future to use more caution when posting individual’s status and address together. Oh, and by the way, the woman would be my mom! Thank you Federal Way Mirror for making it very clear you are not a

trustworthy news source if you are going to treat people with such disrespect.

Delivering a quality education I have now been on the Federal Way Public Schools board for eight months and it has been a tremendously educational experience. It has turned even more extraordinary with the opportunity to select the next superintendent, a sudden change in board president as Director Carol Gregory heeds the call of political duty in Olympia and four of the five board director positions coming up for election. I am extremely grateful to the

current board members for having faith in my qualifications and appointing me to the vacant board position during this period.

I whole-heartedly believed that this board could leverage the momentum of community involvement we have seen through the superintendent selection process to bring continuing improvement in our schools and benefit our students’ life outcomes. What I have learned over the past eight months is that the district offers a quality education for life. I would sum up our “brand” as delivering a quality education for life through diversity, support, and choice. Federal Way is not an insular community. Federal Way is diverse, and that diversity is a strength to be leveraged by all students. It gives them the opportunity to live in a real world of people

utes of Federal Way? Open your mind and think about other options that might be more fun and more productive while we wait for the “home run.”

What do you want to feel like when you are downtown? Is there a common theme to tie the area together?

When you shop out of town, where do you go?

Why? Think about small, entertaining and lively shops.

Think about the Gateway

shopping area with its tree-lined and flower-filled meandering roads, theaters, Marlene’s Market and three different restaurants, See’s Candies, a frame shop and a place for ice cream. You can stroll to all of them in minutes.

Take that homegrown concept and extend it west and north through the next two shopping centers to Pacific Highway. Change the roads to be more pedestrian friendly by rerouting passthrough traffic around the area.

Now fill in the area with flowers and trees, benches and great places to shop and spend your or visitors’ money.

We have heard many favorable comments about Kent Station and could steal some ideas from there. But have you been to Puyallup lately? Their downtown includes several interesting businesses including a bakery, English tea shop and a cheese shop. I put on five pounds in two hours.

There is an inviting informal western feel to the area and

significant pedestrian traffic.

Or, if a neighborhood feel is what you want, go visit the reborn Proctor district in Tacoma, but check out some of the architecture in “Old Town” on the way to your destination.

In the space of about two blocks, Proctor has three great restaurants, a Made in Washington store, a Train Hobby shop, theater, two women’s clothing stores, furniture store and Compass Rose where you can fill an Easter basket or Christmas stocking with

truly interesting gifts. There is also a Teaching Toys and Bookstore, where any parent could easily win a child’s heart.

They also have a Metropolitan Market, like we used to have. There is no specific theme but a vintage clock, iron sidewalk benches and the architecture give the area a 1950’s feel that is inviting, safe and comfortable. There are also historical markers inlayed in the sidewalk.

Or try Auburn. They “liberated” many of their main street ideas from main streets across the country with a dash of Disneyland’s Main Street USA thrown in. The color scheme is from Victoria B.C., as is the flower program with an assist from Edmonds, and the sidewalk replicates an 1800’s boardwalk.

And don’t miss the chocolate shop. An additional idea when you visit Auburn — go see their museum. It is small but has a touch of the Provincial Museum of British Columbia in it and is worth the time. We could do that here in the downtown or upgrade Brooklake into another attraction. It is a golden opportunity that is just waiting for leadership.

Close by is Burien with its upgraded main street attractions, including a wine bar, bakery and Irish pub and restaurant.

Their library and City Hall are located downtown, where ours should be. But walk a block to charming “Old Burien” and try the bakery and the 909 Cafe, which is featured in a regional magazine this month.

Speaking of old, try “old Bellevue,” which is just south of their downtown park.

It’s a little pricey but very attractive. You’ll want to go back. And just for fun, go visit Renton, Redmond and Kirkland, and you will get even more ideas.

All these places have something in common.

They have energy and feel alive. Places like these would attract a lot of shoppers, both local and visitors. They also have a lot of young people who were probably visiting, but may like what they see and want to move. But extending the Gateway “feel” of our new downtown is so important that we may need to look at architectural changes in the newly developing areas.

Maybe our city fathers could put their creative ideas into an actual plan and consider recruiting some business like the ones mentioned here. Maybe 25 small hits would provide more progress than one home run. You only have to attract a few to create a buzz that attracts others. I know there are many long-time residents who think looking at other communities for inspiration is disloyal. It isn’t. It’s smart.

Lastly, each one of these towns has a theme and an annual community celebration beyond the Fourth of July. We need that as well.

I know the mayor’s office is working on a 25th anniversary recognition. That could be the start of something big for our future.

But has anyone asked you what you think or want?

Speak up.

Q&A with Mr. FW: Moore’s mind morphs and ousting Mr. Federal Way Q

: Mr. Federal Way, the voters have already said we want recreational and medical marijuana-related businesses here but the council keeps imposing moratoriums left and right.

What do you think about the Federal Way City Council’s votes this week regarding medical and recreational marijuanarelated businesses?

A: Although council members have imposed several moratoriums, Mr. Federal Way sees one clear thing from this process — consistency. Mr. Federal Way doesn’t like waffles for breakfast, or to serve as his city representatives.

Mr. Federal Way doesn’t mind the moratoriums, just so long as the council will eventually make up their minds. But Councilman Martin Moore’s sudden mental morphs are making Mr. Federal Way’s head spin.

Last October, Moore voted in favor of a six-month extension of the moratorium on marijuana-related businesses. He vowed that would be the last time he did so because he believed the council should move forward.

“As an elected official representing 90,000 people in Federal Way and when 53 percent

Yacas completes Army training

have spoken up, I can’t in good conscience go against them,” Moore said last October.

But five months later, Moore waffled.

On Tuesday, Moore — in good conscience — went against at least 53 percent of voters who spoke up. He said he’s “on a mission to create a positive image for Federal Way” and that he didn’t want “to be driving down and seeing pot stores” or stand near a “pot shop” and smell it.

Moore’s change in tunes suggests that his senses — including sight and smell — are more important to him that the voters’ desires. Mr. Federal Way thinks his decision this week was in poor taste.

Mr. Federal Way won’t tolerate leaders who shilly-shally over such matters. Pick a side and stay put.

Speaking of switching sides, Moore switched to the Republican Party in January.

Could this be the reason why he changed his mind regarding the marijuana issue?

It shouldn’t be, as Moore has consistently said his council position is bi-partisan and therefore party politics do not affect his decisions.

But consistency is apparently not part of Moore’s vocabulary.

and unarmed combat, map reading, field tactics, military courtesy, military justice system, basic first aid, foot marches and field training exercises.

Yacas is the daughter of Julius P. Yacas of Federal Way, and niece of Ronnie V. Manzano of Kapaa, Hawaii.

She is a 2012 graduate of Decatur High School.

FROM STAFF REPORTS

Army Pvt. Juvilyne M. Yacas has graduated from basic combat training at Fort Jackson, Columbia, South Carolina.

During the nine weeks of training, the soldier studied the Army mission, history, tradition and core values.

She also received instruction and practice in basic combat skills, military weapons, chemical warfare and bayonet training, drill and ceremony, marching, rifle marksmanship, armed

Q: Mr. Federal Way, I was stunned to see in national news that an Atlanta preacher is actually seeking 200,000 people to each donate $300 to help the church purchase a luxury G650 airplane. What do you think about this?

A: This is Federal Way’s chance to get rid of Mr. Federal Way. For good. Hear Mr. Federal Way out.

Yes, preacher Creflo Dollar of the Atlantaarea World Changers Church International has requested all those people to donate $300 or more to buy a Gulfstream G650, which costs an estimated $65 million, according to CNN. In a six-minute video, Dollar explains that the luxury jet will transport ministry pastors and members around the world to help them “spread the gospel,” the CNN report continues.

Only God can really judge this, but Mr. Federal Way does think the price tag is asking too much. Why does the ministry need the most technologically advanced jet to spread their message around the nation?

Mr. Federal Way is fairly certain they can find a cheaper model on the jet market that is in fair operational shape.

Nevertheless, this presents a chance for you to get rid of Mr. Federal Way.

military training at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, San Antonio, Texas.

The airman completed an intensive, eight-week program that included training in military discipline and studies, Air Force core values, physical fitness, and basic warfare principles and skills.

Airmen who complete basic training earn four credits toward an associate in applied science degree through the Community College of the Air Force.

Jeong is the son of Wangu Joung and Jeongae Park of Federal Way.

And Mr. Federal Way is not talking about you sending him on a one-way trip to some fiery place of eternal torment.

Here is Mr. Federal Way’s proposal.

There are over 91,000 residents who live in Federal Way. Now $300 would be a lot to ask each of these residents, many of whom have children on free or reduced lunch at school, are low-income or homeless.

But what about $1? How many of you will pledge $1 to get rid of Mr. Federal Way forever?

If you are committed to your abomination of this columnist, send your buck to the Mirror, or bring it in to their office. If Mirror staff collects $91,000, Mr. Federal Way pledges to stop writing in these pages.

In turn, the Mirror will donate those proceeds to Sound Alliance, who are trying to build a day shelter for the homeless in Federal Way. Don’t say Mr. Federal Way never gave you the opportunity to help either effort.

Q: Mr. Federal Way, who do you think will win the NCAA Tournament?

A: None of your business.

Jury finds church daycare driver guilty of molesting girl on bus

A

Kent jury found the bus driver of a Federal Way church daycare guilty on March 13 of molesting a 6-year-old girl on his bus.

According to police spokeswoman Cathy Schrock, detectives suspect the two men were involved in selling a drug known as “dab,” or dried hash oil, a form of cannabis.

Schrock said police believe the suspects who shot the brothers came to the residence to steal drugs and/or money.

“A significant amount of “dab” and cash were recovered from the scene,” Schrock said, noting that the exact amount is unknown.

One of the victims was treated and released for his gunshot wound but the second remains hospitalized.

Both victims are cooperating with the investigation.

Current Employment Opportunities at www.soundpublishing.com

STAFF WRITER Seattle Weekly is seeking a Staff Writer to join its editorial team and help chronicle the fastest growing city in the U.S. The Staff Writer will be responsible for contributing high-quality news and feature stories with a focus on in-depth reporting and narrative storytelling. The right candidate will be somebody who feels more at home in the field rather than in front of a screen. In other words, if you think stringing tweets together can pass as a story, or prefer to conduct interviews over e-mail, this is not the job for you.

This Staff Writer will be someone adept at, and perhaps addicted to, covering local politics and social-justice issues, but who can also sniff out the odd story about emergent trends in the tech sector or the city’s sports culture. She or he will come to every editorial staff meeting with two or three new ideas for stories, and will walk away frustrated if the editor only bites on one.

Seattle Weekly is committed to delivering exceptional content to our readers each week, which means that the right candidate will know how to properly nurture a story, working closely with an editor on multiple rewrites to produce a piece that readers will enjoy, respect, and share, even if they disagree with it. He or she will be patient enough to let a story develop, but will also be capable of executing an unreasonably quick turnaround, and will be impeccable in observing deadlines. And the Staff Writer will excel at crafting long-form features, though he or she will also be able to deliver impactful, thoroughly reported accounts in just 800 words.

Since Seattle is an unusually competitive market, the Staff Writer will need to possess an ability to uncover stories that readers won’t find anywhere else. Second only to that is an insatiable desire to find a new angle on a well-trod story, revealing something new about a subject that other reporters might think is over and done with. She or he must be able to talk to people who don’t want to tell their story, or who maybe think they don’t have a story to tell. The right candidate will be smart enough to find the right sources and brave enough to ask the next, tougher question.

The Staff Writer will also be a delight to work with—serious about the task at hand, but able to contribute to a convivial office environment and to participate in group projects with consideration, honesty, and enthusiasm.

And, most important, the Staff Writer must possess the ability to surprise her or his editor. If you are used to setting the bar high and then clearing it with ease, this could very well be the job for you.

To apply, please send a cover letter, resume, and your five favorite stories to: hreast@soundpublishing.com. Please note: ATTN: SWSEA in the subject line.

Police set up a perimeter and used a K-9 to help them track the suspect, who police saw running north of the entrance to the complex. During the track, officers came up to the north side of the complex, which is enclosed by a chain link fence. As the dog indicated north of the fence line, police cut the fence from top to bottom and sent the dog to check. They did not locate the suspect and stopped the K-9 track at approximately 6:49 p.m.

Minutes later, police located the teen running south on 21st Avenue Southwest. An officer then saw him in a hooded sweatshirt with his hood up, crouching in the corner on the ground. An officer drew

of the suspect’s outer clothing.

Police apprehended both suspects and the 22-year-old admitted to stealing clothing from Macy’s and two shirts from Walmart. The 20-year-old initially denied any involvement in the theft, however, he later admitted he was involved when police pointed out to him that the whole incident was on camera.

The 22-year-old told police he fled from them because he was afraid that they were going to shoot him with a gun. The other suspect said he ran because he did not want to miss his brother’s birthday. He also said he stole a pair of jeans for his brother’s birthday gift. Both were booked into SCORE jail for thirddegree theft and resisting arrest.

Carjacking at gunpoint: At 3:01 a.m. on March 10 at 34520 16th Ave. S., Federal Way police officers were dispatched to a carjacking with a gun at Super Walmart.

The victim — a 24-year-old Federal Way man — said he had just emerged from the store and walked over to his vehicle, when he observed a man standing next to his vehicle. The victim got into the driver’s seat and the man walked over to the driver’s side of his vehicle, pulled out a gun from his waistband and ordered the victim to move over to the passenger seat while pointing the gun at him.

Fearing for his life, the victim complied. The suspect got into the driver’s seat and pushed the victim towards the passenger seat. Once the man was inside, the victim noticed that his firearm was an Airsoft gun. The victim started to kick and push the suspect out of the car, as the suspect uttered, “I don’t want to shoot you!” Eventually, the victim was able to get the suspect out of his vehicle. The suspect fled on foot and left the slide of the gun laying on the driver’s seat. The victim picked up the slide, threw it at the suspect as he ran away and chased the suspect but lost sight of him in the parking lot. [ more POLICE, page 23 ]

The victim complied but witnessed the suspects walk into the apartments to the east of 17th Avenue Southwest. One of the suspects was wearing a red sweatshirt and the others were wearing all black.

Police were unable to locate them.

Woman assaults mother in parking lot: At 5:27 p.m. on March 11 at 34520 16th Ave. S., police arrived at Walmart to investigate a reported assault. An officer contacted the victim, who was inside the store at a Subway table, holding a bag of ice to her head.

The 28-year-old Federal Way woman stated she and her 9-year-old daughter were walking out of the store’s west exit when she had to stop suddenly to avoid being hit by an SUV that was traveling in front of the store. She said after the vehicle passed her, it stopped and the woman was so angry she slapped the rear window of the SUV. The suspect — an 18-year-old Federal Way woman — exited the vehicle, approached the mother and yelled at her for hitting her vehicle. The victim told police the suspect punched her in the face while multiple other females exited the vehicle. The females, who are the suspect’s sisters, tried to pull their sister off the mother during the fight.

Police discharge taser at fleeing shoplifters: At 8:43 p.m. on March 11 at 1901 S. Commons, a 20-year-old SeaTac man and 22-year-old Federal Way man stole $400.49 worth of clothing at Macy’s. A loss prevention officer notified a Federal Way police officer via mall radio that the two suspects exited the store with stolen merchandise. He said the suspects fled on foot and the police officers requested back-up units in the area to conduct checks for the suspects.

One of the officers advised that he observed the two men running from police in the area of South 324th Street and Pacific Highway.

hen people think of car maintenance, many people think of oil changes, alignments, new air filters and new windshield wipers. It is easy to neglect the maintenance that doesn’t affect how the car runs, such as cleaning the car.

I’d like to share a story with you.

I was riding in a friend’s car and after about an hour, I noticed a sore throat developing. But the symptom that seemed to be a harbinger for a cold disappeared several hours after getting out of the car.

I mentioned this curiosity to my wife, and she told me that her mold allergies cause this same experience whenever she encounters a high-mold environment. When I mentioned it to my friend,

Rep. Linda Kochmar sponsored two Federal Way students in Olympia on March 2-6. Contributed photo

Students spend week in Olympia FROM STAFF REPORTS

Josephine Akiniosotu, a student from Federal Way High School, and Joy Ellis, a student from Sacajawea Middle School, traveled to Olympia March 2-6 and served as pages in the state House of Representatives.

They were sponsored by 30th District Rep. Linda Kochmar, R-Federal Way. “The ability to teach our students about how our state government operates is important to schools and for promoting civic engagement amongst our youth,” Kochmar said. “I am grateful for their service this week, and I hope they made lasting friendships with the other pages.”

During their time as pages, Josephine and Joy attended page school every day to understand the operations and actions of the Legislature. Their time at the Capitol culminated with the presentation of their mock bill addressing

the issue of accessibility to abortions.

As part of their page duties, they learned to navigate the many buildings on the Capitol campus and delivered messages and documents to legislators and staff.

Each year, students from around the state apply to participate in the legislative page program. Students spend a week attending page school, learning the inner workings of state government and assisting legislators on the House floor. Pages earn $35 per day while serving in the program.

To become a page, applicants must have a legislative sponsor, be between the ages of 14 and 16, and obtain written permission from their parents and school. For more information about the legislative page program, visit www. leg.wa.gov/House/Pages/ HousePageProgram.aspx.

The woman gave the manager her name but left Old Country Buffet before police arrived.

Police ran the license plate and found the vehicle was recently stopped in Auburn with a driver matching the description witnesses gave. The driver was listed as Halter.

After checking the Washington State database, police discovered Halter pleaded guilty to “possession of depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct” and two counts of indecent exposure involving minor children in 2012.

In an April 2011 assessment for the sentencing of those cases, a sexual deviancy treatment provider found Halter had a moderate to high risk to reoffend.

[ POLICE from page 20]

The victim walked back to his vehicle and noticed a female sitting in a van next to his vehicle.

He recalled this was the same van he initially saw the suspect leaning against prior to approaching the victim. Police questioned the woman, who said she met the suspect — a 39-year-old Tacoma man nicknamed “Solo” — at the Emerald Queen Casino. She said she didn’t know he was going to rob the man.

Police performed a K-9 track and eventually detained the suspect at the Red Lion Hotel, just south of Walmart. A hotel employee said the suspect came into the lobby, asked to use the bathroom and asked staff to call him a taxi. The male seemed nervous while he drank a cup of coffee and waited for the taxi, staff told police. A short time later, the suspect heard sirens outside and he hunched down, appeared to act suspicious and kept looking over at the surveillance camera. Post-Miranda, the man admitted to discarding his clothes in the area, which police found, along with the Airsoft gun.

The suspect was booked into jail and is awaiting firearm robbery charges.

tory also indicates he was reported to have been living with the woman in December 2014, another violation.

Police found Halter after he was stopped on March 9 for a traffic infraction in Olympia, five days after the alleged voyeurism. Court documents state the car belongs to his father in Bremerton and because he had been contacted by police in the past, they had reason to believe he was living in the car for the past few months.

Free tax help available FROM STAFF REPORTS

United Way of King County is offering free tax preparation services to local households making under $60,000.

Volunteers will prepare taxes for attendees and help connect them with one-on-one financial counseling, healthcare enrollment and other public benefits.

United Way of King County operates 21 full-service sites and four drop-off tax prep sites.

At these sites, drop off your documentation and come back in a week to pick up or file your completed return.

The free tax service campaign started as a grassroots initiative in White Center 13 years ago led by United Way of King County.

Over the years, the campaign has spread throughout the county in an effort to connect low-income workers to the Earned Income Tax Credit.
