Workers a King Co. landfill are worried exposure to arsenic is affecting their health. As King County violated rules that exist to protect the environment & public health, landfill employees accused their bosses of failing to inform or protect them. king5.com/article/news/i…

A good way to start the week: Placing the @duPontAwards finalist certificate in the @K5Investigators trophy case. @TaylorMirf and I reported on breakdowns in WA's foster care system. It makes me proud of @KING5Seattle long-term commitment to quality journalism.

Kimberly Bender’s family brought photos of their daughter to share with @GovInslee this AM as he signed “Kimberly Bender’s Law.” Kimberly died by suicide after reporting her jail guard sexually harassed her. Her family says she would’ve been proud to see positive change.

In just a few moments, @GovInslee will sign “Kimberly Bender’s law,” a bill prompted by my @KING5Seattle investigation about a sexually abusive Forks jail guard. The new law will increase accountability for corrections officers who sexually abuse inmates.

"Kimberly Bender's law," a bill prompted by my 2022 @KING5Seattle investigation, unanimously passed the Washington state legislature Wednesday. It now goes to @GovInslee, who will have five days to take action on the measure once he receives it. king5.com/article/news/i…

Today ESB 5033, "Kimberly Bender's law," was unanimously passed by the House--and therefore the entire Legislature--and is now headed to @GovInslee for signature. Hands raised to @TaylorMirf of @KING5Seattle and Sen. Mike Padden (R-Spokane) for catalyzing this carceral reform.

A WA bill that would raise the penalties for sexually abusive jail guards will move on to the House. The Community Safety, Justice & Reentry committee voted this AM to pass "Kimberly Bender's law," the bill inspired by my @KING5Seattle investigation. king5.com/article/news/c…

The City of Tenino has removed a police officer from patrol and opened an internal probe in response to my February @KING5Seattle investigation, which showed how a settlement hid the cop’s troubled past. king5.com/article/news/i…
