Thanks for keeping the loss of the other 3 souls at the hands of KPD in the public eye by mentioning them (but, don’t forget the suicide by cop nearby on Hwy 167 a few weeks back as well). This is a familiar American story (excessive force – a reflection of our war/gun culture, DV, CTE infected football mania, and rampant testosterone run amuck) that is us. Unlike the fig leaf of a fix imposed on the Seattle PD by the feds, the same will not happen here whilst the current American Taliban regime controls all branches of government. So, it’s a local problem, needing a local solution. If left as it is, it will only result in even more terrible outcomes for Kent. You simply can't conduct war on the public and not expect blow back.  Perhaps, in recognition of the rising body count, the current mayor/council should step up and intervene with the KPD. Better yet, how about if those aspiring to those offices wade in and take a public stance before we vote?
